Fifteen directors attended this meeting and held a good discus- sion on whether to hold a banquet in connection with the annual meeting. After ;Ruch argument, it was decided not to hold a ban- quet this year. Named on a lunch committee were Martin Baan, Jas. Williamson, Clifford Bray and Charles Thomas. Murray Hoover, Ross Knight, and Jack Knight had attended a feeder steer 'meeting in Clinton and were quite interested in what they had learned. Directors had intended sponsoring a club in Grey, but due to lack of interest decided to pestpone the club for this year. Five directors had at- tended the OFA meeting in Toron- to. They reported that a resolu- tion started earlier this year by Grey Township was presented at the meeting and had been sustain- ed by the Ontario body. It was Fall Is Warning Of Insect Attacks Fall is here, and so is the Juni- per webwornl, which attacks all sharp -needled junipers. The culprits are the larvae, those brown worms that feed on the needles and web them together; causing dead areas. They feed in the fall and spend the winter as partly -grown caterpillars in the webbed needles. They resume the feast in May and June, to add to the damage. A spray that can -be driven well into the webbed needles is the best means of control, but DDT dust, a .favorite for small home Plant- ings, does a good job. Entomologists with the Ontario Department of Agriculture suggest these treatments: 50% DDT wettable powder - 2 tablespoons per gallon of water. 50% malathion emulsion - 2 tablespoons per gallon of water. Lead arsenate - 4 tablespoons per gallon of water. 5% DDT dust - heavy applica- tion. Home garden dust and spray mixtures are also available. Use the manufacturer's recommenda- tions.

LONG-LIVED SHRUBS AND TREES DEPEND ON PLANTING CARE When you, get your new trees and shrubs, it pays to transplant them with extra care; years of good garden show depends on it. Here's what horticulturists with the Ontario Department of Agri- culture suggest for successful transplanting of trees and shrubs: Be sure that the holes are wide and deep enough to prevent cramp- ing' and twisting of roots. Gut the sides of the hole perpendintilar and the bottom flat and level. Spread all the roots so that each is in contact with the new soil without the formation. of air pockets. If the ground is stony, give the new roots enough room to advance without resistance. Save the topsoil dug from the hole for use around the roots. If you must use the poorer subsoil, mix it with better material. Use this 'poor mixture above. Cover this with a layer of soil that will remain porous and resistant to sun -bake and hardening. If the soil is heavy and wet, dig wide and deep. Then fill back with suitable ' mixed earth:or drainage material and plant shallow. Don't plant the roots too, deep. TIMELY TIPS Are you 'hunting' for 'an acci- dent this fall? Probably not, but pheasant and duck season will bring 30 or 40 casualties this fall. Hal Wright, Farm Safety Special- lst for the Ontario Department of Agriculture, offers these remind- ers to Ontario farmers to keep the hunting season a safe season. Always check a gun and make sure it's not loaded before you handle it. Never point a gun at anything you don't intend to kill. Unload your gun before you leave the hunting area or get into your car. *.* * • If your spring -flowering bulbs haven't been giving the large blooms that you expect; it might be cause they need dividing. Now's the time to do it, say horticultur- ists with the Ontario Department of Agriculture. Separate t h e clumps and replant the new, smaller sections. Set them one or two inches -below their original position. A fertilizer, mixed in with the soil, is helpful, but dotl't let it come in direct contact • with the roots. Peat and humus •mixed With the soil in the hole are often helpful to transplants for good rooting. The removal of burlap from transplants is not necessary. Roots can penetrate burlap which will, rot and eventually disappear. Just be sure that there is no tight string or bandaging around the stem of the plant. Watering? Don't water until the hole is three-quarters full of suit- ably packed earth, Let the water soak in before the addition of extra earth. Do not pound wet soil down. Fill in the last layer of earth with just average firmness. In your fall planting, it's a good idea to place a mulch around the transplant. ,l' `•Hia'ltpo > Sl'USI,SEAroitTg oe , toy._s, ONLY 24 SHOPPING DAYS 'TIL CHRISTMAS See Our Big Christmas Ditsplay.
