They iced at night and eat the leaves of ettuce, beans, corn, •cabbage and many other plants, They eat holes in tomatoes and the roots of many vegetables. To control slugs, use a ready- prepared slug bait containing me- :aldehyde, suggests Professor How- ard Gable, of the Botany Depart- ment at the Ontario Agricultural 3'ollege. 'Spread this bait on the garden in the evening; place heap- ing teaspoonsful in piles about a foot apart, near or under the plants to be protected. If you have dug your vegetable garden from sod, chances are that you will have difficulty with cut- worms, Control them now, to pre- vent trouble in the future. These caterpillars cut the plants off at ground level, or they may eat the foliage during the evening or night. Control before or after planting with 5% aldrin, chlordane, or heptachlor, Dust the surface of the soil along the rows, or spray with one of these materials at the rate recommended on the manufactur- er's label. A 5% DDT dust, if ap- plied heavily, is effective. Most insecticides are poisonous to humans and animals; follow the label directions carefully for safety. Take special precautions concern- ing the interval of time between treatment and harvest. (Moppet Fashions Is Big Business The children's fashion industry is relatively new in Canada. Only 30 years ago there were three kiddies' wear manufacturers. Today there are more than 90 and there's as great a demand for color, variety and style in moppets' clothes as there is in ladies` wear. In the early 30's, most children's clothes were made at home -by Mother. Youngsters were clothed for warmth and comfort, and fa- shion was a minor consideration. Of course, those were the depres- sion years and money for non- essential frills and furbelows was scarce. Ready-made toddlers' dress- es cost 59 cents each, whereas one Could be made at home from a yard of material costing 35 cents, La- dies' dress manufacturers made in- tfatits' and children's dresses as a sideline, and it wasn't until the late 30's that firms specialiting in Children's wear came Into existence. Fabrics have undergone a dra- Matte change too. In those early days the popular Sebties Were Mainly cotton or rayon, but not as We know them today, The cotton materials were frequently filled With starch to give the -appearance Of 'a better fabrie. After the first washing the dress went limp and had to 'be re-starched, and Senn- how the little puffed sleeVes were never -so perky again! Today, crispness is built right into the fabric. Properly pleated SkirtS 'find trimmings emerge ftern. the washing machine or dryer like MAY, and even Duffed Sleeves and ruffles do not _require Mote than the tench of an iron, fashions are se Int- portent today that department stores have separate children's - wear sections for •eaeh age group. • The modern miss is sensitive about shopping with children younger than she is! Then too, there are now children's and tecn-age speci- alty shops Where everything from pinafores to haute couture adapt- ktiOns may be purchased, Little misses today are as style 'conscious as their elders, and know exactly what, they want in styles and colors. A saleslady is not bit surprised. when six-year-old Betty stands before the full-length mirror and asks "DO YOU think this does anything for Me'?"
