Tomato plants, for example, to be
worms can be controlled by hand
picking them from the plants, al-
though they are a little difficult to
detect since they are the same color
as the stem of the tomato plant.
To combat these pests in large
plantings of tomatoes, dust the plants

protected against their many enemies.
One saboteur to be on the lookout
for is the tomato horn worm. This
is a large green worm, two to four
inches long, with a horn on its back,
as illustrated in the accompanying
Garden-Graph. One such worm can
eat all the leaves off a tomato plant

Making the meat ration do for en-
tertaining guests is really a problem,
especially when the family consists of
one or two. However, by giving
thoUght, it can be done. You may
have to have two or three meatless
dinners thereafter, but after all, who
cares? We have cheese, eggs, nuts,
fish, etc., to take the place of the-pro-
tein we miss in meat. And we don't
have to .go on week after week with
no meat, as many persons are doing in
other countries. Here's _a casserale
dish that will show'you one way to
make a small amount of meat go a
long way.

Young plants start making final
growth until the. first -fruits are about
half grown. Leaf spot is .caused by
a fungus and can be recognized by the
brown, circular spots it produces on
the leaves, as illustrated. This, dis-
ease is easy to prevent, but difficult
to cure. Plants suffering from leaf
spot produce only few tomatoes and
those will be found to be inferior in
size anti quality.

Shantung beautifully simulated in
synthetic weaves, appears as the fav-
ored fabric for many attractive suits
and frocks this summer. Here is a
neat suit of rayon shantung with collar
revers and front section of beige in
contrast to the beige of the suit. The
skirt has a kick pleat in front and
back. There are a few gathers from
the shoulder yoke of the jacket. A
beige linen dicky with pin tucking

THE DAIRY FARMER RANKS
HIGH IN MILITARY PLANS'
Hello Hoinemakersl As the grass
blankets the bare fields, the cattle go
forth to graze. Mother Nature pro-
vides the nutrients and the herds of
cows silently and steadily crop the
tender shoots of grass to give us that
most important food, milk.
Each evening the veteran dairy
farmer opens the gate and his army
returns to barracks without bands or
bunting. Although his field uniform
is faded from. work and weather, in
Canada's military strategy the farmer
ranks high. For men must eat before
they can fight. Nations must have
food with their freedom-:and nature's
best-balanced food is milk.
In spite of labour and machinery
shortages, last year Ontario made 200
million pounds of cheese, exporting
125' millions; made 281 million pounds
of butter, and used four and a half
million pounds of milk in other ways.
The average consumption of butter in
Canada is 7.2 oz, per person• per week.
In 1942 butter production was lower
than the previous year, while cheese
production was up 34%. Estiinat,ed
needs require an increase of 6% in
milk production in Ontario.
This province can be proud of its
farmers for pitching in and producing
bumper crops of corn, wheat, meat
and other foods, as well as milk — for
working longer and harder, Farmers'
wives, too, have been doing their
share,

Wingham as Installation Foreman for
the Stratford territory. His remarks.
proved very interesting to the mem-
bers.
The matter of having a draw for
the Labour Day Frolic was considered
and it was decided on motion by Jack
Hanna and Ed. Gibson, that we ar-
range for a draw, the tickets to be
available for sale on July 12th. An
account for the expenses of the recent
Blood Donors Clinic was passed,
Lion Hal MacClean reported receipt
of a silver identity disc secured for
Lion A. D. MacWilliam. 'This was
passed around for inspection by the
members and will be forwarded to
Lieutenant MacWilliam at Winnipeg.
The attendance at the forthcoming,
convention at Niagara Falls was dis-
cussed, many of the Lions expressing
their views in regard to this.
Lion Stan Hall called upon Lion
Harley Crawford to introduce the
speaker of the evening, Mr. G. Pat-
terson. Lion Harley reported that he
had been negotiating with Mr. Pat-
terson to come to town and he was
pleased to have' him with the Club
and he felt sure his remarks would
be very interesting to the members.
Mr. Patterson spoke of the planning
for the post war period with regard
to aviation. He held up a recent copy
of the Canada Gazette showing pages
of names of boys in the Air Force
who would not come back and he
stated that it was the object of the
organization to plan a system of Air
Ports and Landing Fields etc. so that
the skill of the young men who did
.return could be utilized both to the
advantage of Canada and to the men
themselves. He quoted the opinions
of prominent authorities with regard
to this line of organization. He. felt
that a sincere all-out war effort and
early victory would only be obtained
if the men in the Armed Forces could
be assured of a future free from worry:-
as to employment and at reasonable.
remuneration. He pointed out that
the education of a mechanic costa
around $15,0000 and Pilot Officers,
Observers and Air Gunners were
qualified in their respective positions-
at a cost ranging from $25,000.00 to.
$27,000.00 each. This great invest-
ment in our men could not be over-
looked and provision should be made
to utilize it to the fullest extent.
He quoted some interesting statis-
tics is regard to air travel and state&
that at the close of the war it would
be possible %to go to any point on the
earth in sixty hours. His Associa-
tion Jett that many Air Ports or
Landing Strips should be dotted alt
over the Country. He predicted that
all first class mail would be air
borne after the war and that freight
would lie carried by Glider Planes.
It was stated that experience heal,
shown that a start could be made with
a suitable property of about fifty
acres and this could be greatly, en.
larged as the need became greater,
His talk proved very interesting and
he offered to 'go into further detaila
after the meeting with anyone.interest
.ed. Many of the Lions' took advan-
tage .of this offer and stayed. Lion.
Jack Hanna presented the thanks 'of
the Club to Mr. Patterson for his ad- '
dress. On motion of Lions IGabbraitli
and Newcombe Lion Bill Hamilton
was marked as present.
The meeting closed with the usual
song and Lions Roar. ,
