Bible Society Sponsors Turkey inn.er

United Church, Ailsa Craig, on ers have access to the IIoly Scrip-
t ures.
This year, for the first time in
the Society's history, it is not
able to meet the great demand
of the Bibles needed by the mis-
sionaries and colportuers of many
countries.
Only as Christiana everywhere
rally to the support of the Bible
Society, (which considers itself a
handmaid of the Christian church)
can the greater part of .this de-
mand be met.
Dr. Platt's address was tape-
recorded, and it is expected that
it will be- available to any church
groups or organizations desiring
it. If interested contact Neil Gin-
gerich, local secretary of the Soc-
iety.
Following his address, the film,
"The Brier and the Myrtle" was
shown. This illustrated well the
need throughout the world for the
living message of God's word, and
also the wonderful manner in
which this saving message can
minister to the spiritual ills of
mankind.
Those attending from Zurich
were Neil Gingerich, local secret-
ary, Harold Zehr, Gerald Ginger-
ich and Rev. A. Martin.

(By our Hensall correspondent)
Mrs. W. L. Whyte, Seaforth, ad-
dressed the Women's Missionary
Society of Hensall United Church,
and their guests, at their annual
birthday party held in the church
auditorium on Friday evening. For
her topic theme, Mrs. Whyte spoke
on "Ways that we might prepare
ourselves for Easter,"
She stated we must learn to
watch our words, try to pass one
day without making a destructive
word about anyone. If you can't
say something nice about anyone,
just don't say anything at all. If
you are going to critisize let us
just review our own faults, we all
have faults but there is a little bit
of good in everyone. For her con-
cluding remarks the speaker spoke
on The Ressurrection of Christ
and what it could mean to us.
Christ does live within us if we
only allow him, tet us see what
the Ressurrection of Christ can do
for us this year,
The speaker was introduced by
Mrs. William Henry. and thanked
by Mrs. E, T. Rowe. Mrs. George
Armstrong extended the welcome
to the members and guests, which
included the societies from St,
Peter's Lutheran Church. Zurich,

Farmers Move To Place Control
Warble Fly ion Compulsory asis
W. P. Watson, Ontario Live-
stock Commissioner, said today
that farmers in 271 townships will
soon be taking appropriate meas-
ures to control warble fly, a pest
which causes serious financial loss-
es every year. Councils in each
of these townships have at some
time or other during the past
ten years passed by-laws placing
treatment on a compulsory basis.
The fly lays its eggs on the
flanks of cattle during the spring
and early summer months, the
eggs hatching into tiny larvae
which penetrate the hide, Dur-
ing the next nine or ten months
they migrate through the bodies
of their hosts, eventually becoming
located along both sides of the
back bone. By this time they have
developed in to grabs whose main
objective is to escape, To do tie; 5
objective is to escape. To do this
they out holes through the hide
making it unsuitable for use as
leather. After emerging the grubs
hatch into flies and the life cycle
commences over again..

free from warble grubs, Never-
theless the treatment is effective
in the control of lice. Such being
the case farmers residing in town-
ships where spraying service is
available are urged to have their
cattle sprayed, even though they
may not be infected with grubs.
Secondly, the time for the first
treatment has been delayed. This
year it must be applied between
the 10th and 18th of April, for
the reason that a high percentage
of the grubs are located in the
backs of cattle at this time. If
grubs continue to appear a second
treatment must be applied 3-4
weeks later Moreover cattle br-
The most vulnerable period in
this insect's life occurs while it
is in the backs of the cattle.
Hence treatment to be effective,
must be applied at this time. A
mixture of derris powder and wat-
er, applied either with a stiff
bristled brush or as a spray, is
used as treatment.
Two important changes in the
regulations come into effect this
year. First, it is no longer ob-
ligatory to treat cattle that are
ought into a township` in which
a by-law has boon passed, during
the period April 10th to May 31st,
must be treated within three days
of their arrival if they have war-
ble grubs.
Mr. Watson states that a war-
ble fly is capable of laying 500-
600 eggs. Under the circumstanc-
es every grub must be destroyed
if the pest is to be eradicated. The
farmer who fails to fulfil his ob-
ligation in this regard is doing
an injustice to his neighbour as
well as to himself as neglect on
his part could conceivably result
in the neighbour's herd being in-
fested.
