EARWIGS
Earwigs are back again! Dah-
lias, Zinnias, corn, silks and let-
tuce, usually take quite a .chewing
from these pests. Earwigs seem
to have an uncanny ability to find
their way into the 'house where
they become a disgusting pest.
A free • publication on earwig •
control is available from this
office.

' TRAVELLING
We spent a travelling holiday in
England and Scotland during June
which combined sightSeeing, and
visiting..,faMily relations and
friends. hey make more inten-
sive use of land than here in Ont-
ario, especially around cities and
use much less land for houses,
etc. As a result they have a lot of
land for farm use in spite of a
large population — 57 Million:
All of the travel ads make
travelling look easy and simple
and most of us plan to' travel when
we retire. At best, travelling is,
hard work and very tiring even
at middle age. If you want to
enjoy a trip, do it as soon as you
can get away. Judging from the
number of elderly women travel-
' ling alone, most men waited too
long.
