elan of Entomology, Dominion. De-
partment of Agrlcultere,
In the slimmer of 1945, scleutista
working in Conneetteet and Alabama
demonstrated the presence of the
virus of poltomyetlitis in mixed coll-
ections of blow Ries, house files, and
certain other species of flies taken in
two localities where cases of infant-
ile paralysis bad occurred. This fact
adds emphasis to the importance of
fly control. Flies breed in garbage,
manure, and other pelmet matter,
and thus can be most effectively con-
trolled by properly treating and dis-
posing of such materials,
Measures should be taken to ex-
clude flies from dwellings, and to
protect foodstuffs from those that
may gain entrance. The files should
be destroyed promptly, Leaflets con-
taining further details on fly control
may be obtained by writing to Pub-

Another Industry reteir:ng spetial
AN OLD CANADL4N CUSTOtV
When our pioneer grandparents had a big job to
do they tilled in their neighbours. A barn raising
brought help from miles around. Skil' ed barn
framers took charge; sides were chosen and com-
petitioa between teams lent interest to the work.
This old Canadian custom was revived when
Canada's National War Finance Committee was
•
formed and went into operation. Under the
leadership of the National and Provincial Com-
mittees—men experienced in the organization
and conduct of financial operations—Local Com-
mittees were formed in all communities. Co-
operation and competition characterized the
work. The biggest '"raising" in Canada's history
got away to a magnificent start.
WE'VE GOT A BIG iOB TO DO NO-:
The War goes on. The National War Finance
Committee carnes on. Some Swill serve on the
committees organized to promote continued
sales of Bonds. War Savings Certificates and
`tamps. All of us must continne to buy these
securities. We must sane every dollar. every cent
we can—and lend our money to Canada. We must
provide the money required to carry on the war
—the money required to win the war.
Our fighters must have more ships and tanks
and guns and planes. They must have better
ships and tank and guns and planes than the
enemy has. We must all work, and save and lend.
The safest investments we can .find for alit
saying{ are Bonds: War Savings Certificates stiff
Stamps—and they will provide money for us to
buy thi ea that we will want when the war is
ended.
