CLEAN THE ` •
CORN FIELD
There have been rumors that the
Corn Borer Act would not be enforc-
ed this year. Such rumors are un-
founded. The Provincial Entomolo-
gist in March called a meeting of the
corn borer inspectors, discussed with
them their duties and give instruc-
tions that there should be no slack-
ening up in the enforcement of the
Act. He said the borer was just as
dangerous as ever and the only safe-
guard against serious loss to the.
corn lay in a thorough clean-up ev-
ery year; each farmer doing his own
share. It was pointed out that the
weather was a very important factor
in determining whether we could get
a reduction in the number of borers

weather would favor 4 the insect so
much that all a good -clean -up, -could

pices of the Ladies' Aid, Belgrave. Owing to economic conditions all
over the province it is specially de-
sirable this year that clean-up of corn
fields be completed early, so that ex-
penses
be kept as low as possible,
consistent with efficiency. Hence the
farmers and also corn growers in cit-
ies and towns . are urged to co-oper-
ate by having all corn remnants des-
troyed not later than May 20th:
Any person wishing to get further
information on the borer and the best
methods of control should write to
the Director of Statistics and Publi-
cations, ` East Block, Parliament
Buildings, Toronto, and ask for a
copy of bulletin No. 358.

little waste. At a time when the top

brought $8. They were finished off
during the past winter on a ration
whichraised to a 'maximum of 10
pounds of grain per day, 50 per cent.
of which was barley, supplemented
by oats, gluten feed and oil cake. Of
the -right type, weight and finish they
proved specially popular. with Mont-
