Gardener's Insect Friends All garden insects are not injurious' —in fact many of them are beneficial,: continually doing good by destroying those species which are harmful.', Foremast .among the insects that help; the gardener are the different kinds of; ladybird beetles. Both in their larval and adult stages, they feed almost ex elusively upon plant lice and scale in sects. Another kind of beetle, the fiery ground beetle, is a particularly useful insect. This beetle and its voracious grub, whith is called thecut worm lion, 'destroy enormous numbers Id cutworms. The beetle is brownish tbla'ck, with the wing -cases spotted with' coppery red --,-hence its name, Thei large •harpalus beetle, Whish is very! common, 'd'estroys cutworms. The dif- ferent kinds ` of lacewing; and other two and four winged parasitic flies are also 'friends of the gardener. Ontario supplied one half of the 1932 commercial production of straw- berries in Canada, which totalled 20,- 601,0.00 quarts. 520 Fairs To Be Held 101f 'the Aignicultural Societies in Ontario, some 320 plan to hold fairs this year, according to J. A. Carroll, superintendent, ikgricultunal Societies Branch, "In' certain quarters," said Mr. Car- roll, "there was a feeling that govern- ment and municipal cuts in grants would tend to disrupt the plans of many of these organizations. Howev- er, from the fmipresssion gained at the (District Fair Association meetings I have attended throughout the prov- ince, I feel that the directors are de- termined by increased energy and en- terprise to maintain the standards of the organizations, many of which have been in 'existence for aimots a century," Potato Beetle :Poison The best and cheapest poison to use for the control of the potato beetle is !calcium arsenate .at the rate of `11% to 2 pounds in 40 gallons of Bordeaux mixture (copper sulphate 6 lbs., lime 1411bs., water 40 gallons). II1 the poison is used alone in water, add two to three pounds 'o'f,.hydrated •line to each 40 gallons. ISlhou'ld arsenate of lead or Paris Green Ibe preferred' as a poison, two to three pounds of the arsenate' or half to one pound of Paris'Green may be subsituted, to be used in each 40 gallon barrel of spray.

It is valuable because of its root- stock growth'- which enables it to grow up th-rough rapidly a'ccumniul- ating sand. when the sand has been fairly well 'controlled, there are two other grasses, namely rattail and wild rye, which have been found useful.; Unfortunately the supply of the seed of these plants is scarce. ,There are.many areas of blow - sand which will never be fit for any- thing but'the production of trees. It may be necessary, even, in the estab- ish'ing of desirable types of trees, first to .plant quick -growing kinds, es- tablish :beadh grass, or use other methods to control the sand until the young permanent trees can secure a proper foot -hold. As to crop yields on sandy soils, there appears to be lit - le difference in the amounts as 'a result of the.various methods .of ploughing.

Hints to'Horticulturists The proper time to 'transplant Or- iental Poppies is when they are per- fectly dormant, that is, transplant in late July or early A'ugus't, Cultivate freely and give Sweet Peas plenty of water or mulch. Keep, the flowers picked.Climbing roses should be pruned immediately after flowering, by re- moving the oldest wood and simply thinning out each bush. Cut down Delphiniums as soon as they are through blooming. This forces the plant to send up new growth and' flower a second time, The bearded or (German Irises may be divided' and transplanted after flowering. As soon as. the flowers fade, cut off all stems and give plen- ty of water for a couple of weeks, then divide and plant shallow. Weekly Crop Report !Aside from scattered showers, the month of 'June was almost barren of moisture .and in some districts there was not one good downfall of rain during the month. Southern Ontario has been badly hit by' the drought. Strawberries were not more than a 40 per cent. crop, while raspberries also have suffered. Spring .crops general- ly have been injured by the continued dry .weather. Essex" County reports wheat beginning to turn and some of it will be ready to cut July 5th.

II't no doubt had its origin in a pointed stick, as s'til'l employed by 'certain savage tribes. The addition weeds wither most quickly and .most surely. (But the hoe does more than dest- troy weeds .and let air into the ground; it also cheeks the escape of moisture, and this is not its least val- uable effect. Ln sane parts of ,South . Africa, where long periods of drought are common, cultivation would be impos- sible without it, and even in other countries 'plants would often fare bad- ly in a 'dry summer if the hoe was not .used among them, (When the soil is not disturbed for a time it settles down in a firm, sponge -like mass, many of the spaces between the particles forming minute ent depths are destroyed. Some of them if left covered may root again, but a backward push after every few strokes 'brings them to the surface and at the same time levels the 'soil. The work should be done when the ground is dry, preferably on a sunny morning when there is some wind, for under these conditions the upturned of a metal blade must have been a very late improvement. 'Whether stone ever served the „purpose is not certain. The spade, another development of the hoe, had to wait until men wore some sort of shoe. It would not be a .pleasant tool to use with bare feet. The earliest form of hoe, quite straight, is represented at the present time by the Dutch or push hoe, call- ed in some parts of the country the scuffle. It is excellent for severing weeds from their roots, especially in gravel paths close to live edgings to which weedkiller might be harmful, but it does not move and aerate the soil.
