POTATOES NEED PROTECTION FROM COSTLY INSECTS Although the Ontario potato crop in general is now progressing favor- ably, those fine, healthy, luxurious green plants which now show much promise of good, yields may be a disappointment, unless they, are given protection against injury from. fleabeetles and leaf hoppers, says R. E. Goodin, fieldnian'for• the Ont- ario Department of Agriculture. Po- tato growers are therefore warned to be on guard against these two de- structive insects. Flea beetles are black in colour and about the size of a common pin. head. They jump very readily from the leaves when disturbed. They cause damage by eating small, round holes in the leaves, and later pimples and burrows may be seen on infest- ed tubers. • The leaf hopper is a small, green- ish insect with sucking mouth parts. They feed on the under surface of the leaves, causing the foliage to turn brown. Where leaf hoppers are very prevalent in a field, plants will die, causing a general appear- ance similar to blight. Timely spraying and dusting will protect the plants. As a spray, one pound of 50 per cent wettable DDT spray powder to every 40 gallons of water is recommended. In the case of dust, the material should contain at least two per cent DDT. These may be combined with Bor- deaux 4-2-40 or a fixed copper or an organic fungicide to protect the plants against the ravages. of late blight. the Province. `Another important visitor, now in Ontario, is Mrs. Ida Braine, :Hert- fordshire W.I,, England, executive member, and a volunteer organizer of Women's Institutes in .England. Mrs. Braine has already visited Wo- men's Institutes in Simeoe and York Counties, and will visit other count- ies during the weeks listed as fol- lows: July 26, Wentworth South; August 2, Norfolk; August 9, Elgin; August 16, Kent; August 23, Essex; August 30, Wellington; September 5, Hastings; September 13, Glen- garry. After completing her tour, she will sail for England on. Sep- tember 25. APPOINTMENTS MADE OF COUNTY HOME ECONOMISTS.

Another siding will be built shortly for the waxing plant being erected on the other side of the road. Dan McNeil from Stratford is in charge of the railway operations. Thrill To The Case Of The Poisoned Candy Who sent poisoned bon -bons to beautiful Elizabeth Dunning? Was it her unfaithful husband or the mysterious Mrs. C.? There's thrill- ing reading in Peter Levin's real- life mystery, "Case of the Poisoned Candy", one of many appealing fea- tures in 'The American Weekly with this Sunday's (August 8) issue of Detroit Sunday Times. IMPORTED CABBAGE WORM AND ITS CONTROL Imported cabbage worms are the velvety green caterpillars which feed on cabbage and cauliflower, rid- dling the foliage with holes of ir- regular shape and size. Two other caterpillars are sometimes trouble- some, the cabbage looper and the larva of the diamondback moth, but fortunately all three species may be controlled quite easily* with arseni- cal or derris dusts. With late cabbage, dust the plants with one part of lead arsenate dilu- ted with four parts of hydrated lime or talc, preferably in the early morning or late evening when the foliage is wet with dew. Try to ob- tain a light even coating of dust but pay particular attention to the centres of the plants where feeding is most prevalent, Thirty or forty pounds of dust to the acre should be ample, Lead arsenate is consider- ably more effective than calcium ar- senate for the imported cabbage worm, and for this reason a home - mixed lead arsenate dust is to be preferred to the ready -mixed calci- um arsenate dusts commonly sold by seed stores. Injury to late cabbage occurring in July is usually of little importance for the plants eventually outgrow the early injury, so apply the first dust during the first week in August and repeat the applica- tions at ten-day intervals. A mini- mum of two applications will be re- quired to protect the plants where the insects are numerous, and three or four applications in outbreak years. Early cabbage usually requires no treatment for the imported cab- bage worn, but in outbreak years considerable injury may occur to the heads shortly before harvest. In this case, substitute a proprietary derris dust for the arsenical since the derris residue is non-poisonous to humans. Because of poisonous residue, arsenicals definitely should not he used on cauliflower once the heads have started to form. abig70:67>10:w5thigAni THESE GR TRMDiNBUYS,' .4 Any Magazine Listed and Thls Newspaper Both for the Price Shown Cl Maclean's (24 issues) $2.75 C] National Home Monthly 2.00 0 Chatelaine 2,25 (1 Family Herald & Weekly Star 2.00 rr3 4 J - ..-.. • ", 1 :) l] Farmer's Advocate (3 yrs.) 2.00 C] American Girl 3.10 (] Child Life 3.70 Ir Christian Herald 3.95 [ Correct English 3.95 [0 Current History 3.95 (] Etude (Music) 3.25 [] Everybody's Digest 3.50 [ Flower Grower 2.95 0 Forum 3,95 C] The Homemaker 3.95 C Hygela 3.50 [ International Digest 3.50 ( Judy's News & Views 2.95 C Magazine Digest 3.50 CModern Romances 2.35 (3 Modern Screen 2.35 C Movies in Review 3,7: ( Nature Magazine 3.5C ( Open Road for Boys 2.9E ( Outdoors 2.9E [l Parents' Magazine 2.91 13 Popular Mechanics 2.95 C] Reader's Digest 375 [i Redbook Magazine .,....,, 2.95 () Science Digest 3.50 11 Science Pictorial 3.95 (1 Scientific Detective 3.95 ( Screen Romances 2.35.
