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. Thursday evening, March 20.

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..

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.
