Upon investigation it was found in every case that proper im- plements were not used and that thor- ough cultivation was not practised. One need not expect to be able to control chicory with poor plowing, followed by a disc harrow or narrow teeth on the cultivator. All growth is cut off below the crown when broad shares which over -lap, are used and by cultivation both ways, a more thor- j for pure ough job is insured.

Scattered plants ficulty. may be cut off well below the crown in hot dry weather and a handful of salt applied to the portion of the root that remains. .Spudding off below the crown, filling in the hole with earth after, in order to exclude the light or air has also proven effective. For large patches, chemical weed killers are the only practical solution to the problem, using sodium chlorate or a chemical with a sodium chlorate base. One pound per gallon of water per 100 square feet is recommended, us- ing a power sprayer. Care must be exercised when spraying with sodium chlorate as there is a fire hazard in its use.

Use 1 teaspoon- ful of Paris Green, 1 tablespoonful of Molasses and 1 quart Bran. Mix all into a. fluffy mixture. Aphis and other sucking insects may be treated with Black Leaf 40, Nicotine or Evergreen. For better re- sults add a little soap and spray to strike all insects. Such poisons spread over leaf surfaces will also kill chew- ing insects as they devour portions of the foliage.

The Nova Scotia crop de- clined. 26 per cent. below the phenom- enal yield of 1933,' while decreases of 45 per cent., 61 per cent. and '70 per cent, were recorded by New Brnus- wick, Quebec and Ontario respective- ly as a direct result of frost damage. Consequently, local supplies in Que- bec and Ontario were insufficient to meet demand and a large volume of Nova Scotia apples were imported. These apples sold at proportionately- low roportionatelylow prices. There was also a considerably larg- er volume of Ontario apples available for distribution than was anticipated at the beginning of the season, which, together with the Nova Scotia arriv- als, resulted in an unusually large proportion of low grade apples on Central Canada markets. The depres- sing effect prohibited higher price lev- els for the comparatively small vol- ume of top -grade stock available, and the reaction on the domestic market paralleled that of the English crop on the United Kingdom markets. The experience of the season just conclud- ed clearly illustrates, says the report, that volume shipment of inferior fruit. reacts to the detriment of all concern- ed and will not create a permanent demand for apples from this source.

The seeds are impurities in clover seeds and very difficult to remove. Due to the length of its roots chick- ory plants cannot be hand picked. Those who are interested in keeping clover fields for seed are urged to spud all plants before seeds mature. It will be time profitably spent. Chic- ory has no place in a progressive municipality. It is becoming more ob- jectionable each year. Thorough cul- tivation is the solution to the prob- lem on cultivated land. Spudding is for scattered plants and the use of weed killers for fence lines and road sides. Now is the time for action: BIRTHS WIGHTMAN- Ii. Listowel, on Sun- day, July 21st, to Mr: and Mrs. As, C.

For three innings Carrick held the Tribe in the''hollow of his hand, but after one was out in the fourth, the Braves began to hit and finally blew the Ieft-hander from the mound in the seventh. Tiffin struck out to start the fatal fourth, but Gurney then got the Hurons' first hit, a ringing single to right -field. Somers then teed off on a low fast one and lifted it far out to deep centre, the ball bouncing off Wagg's glove and into the bowling - green for a home -run. • Carmichael then drove one over the creamery roof for the third successive hit. With Mike on second, Carrick bore down to strike out Lediet and Gray, neither of whom,. could do much with the port-sider all day.

The new system requires that if a breeder decides to tattoo his pigs, the identifying letter shall be allotted by Chicory Chicory is a persistent perennial weed with a deep, long, thick root. Introduced from Europe years ago it was grown as a cultivated plant for its roots, which were ground and mix- ed with coffee. At the present time it is considered one of our most trouble - seine weeds on road sides, fence lines, vacant places and occasionally on cul- tivated fields. Having escaped from cultivation it is now growing in the wild state in every county in the pro- vince and increasing rapidly. Chicory is easily distinguished by its leafless, much -branched stems. bearing numerous clusters of flower heads (without flower stalks) on the naked branches. The flowers are about one and a half inches across, a bright blue in color and are usually closed by noon. The leaves, which are long with irregular edges, spread out on the ground and resemble those of the common dandelion. The presence of chicory in a culti- vated field is an indication of lack of I cultivation, A short totation of crops is important, with ,,deep; p1owr",tig ee . soon as the erop is tiff, followed of thorough cultivation both ways all g ( raft h shares on the c sit ttsittg broad "James, until we are rescued, you need not bow each time you address -a slight curtsey will be sufficient."

Bill Tiffin then came through with a line single to left,' Mellor scoring and Carrick go- ing to centre -field, Hovey replacing hini in the box. The switch from left to right-handed pitching seemed to baffle the Tribe, Colvin being thrown out at the plate on Gurney's tap to the pitcher, Somers fanning and Car- inichael rolling out. Hovey also set the Braves down in order in the 8th. * * * * While Colvin was a trifle wild, walk- ing five and hitting two, still anyone' who strikes out eighteen batters of the Colts' calibre and only allows three hits isn't doing too bad. Be - sides a little wildness is an asset as the boys don't take a toe -hold with the ball sailing by their ears. That was one of Gordon McNeil's greatest assets when he was with Kincardine a few years ago. r * * * The Kincardine paper says most Bruce League fans think Cox the best right-hander in- the loop. With all due respects to Carol, who is a gen- tlemen both on and off the field, we think we can name some who are better and others who are as good. We would place Colvin, Noble and McNeil in the former category and Peterson, Chalmers, Brant and, on a hot day, old Gord, Irwin, still as good as any of them. For the benefit of, several fans who have asked, in seven league games in which he has taken part, Colvin has struck out 93 would-be hitters in 47%1 innings, walked 12 and hit two. Only. two runs have been scored off him, neither of which were earned, He al- so had 45 strike -outs in, parts of five exhibition games, a total, of 138 for the season so far. * * * * In three league games so far the Colts have yet to dent the plate against the Tribe. We hope it keeps tip for three games more. L. 3 4 6 7 14 2 2 0 P.C. .761 .666 .500 .462 .125 LLOYD'S AND MERKLEY'S WIN Merkley's Lose to Lloyd's, And Win From Foundry.

As the score would indicate there were plenty of hits by each team and not a few misplays.
