Ow- ing to its minute size and active,. habits it is seldom Been, and few, if ate'of our ferment would be abbe I to t e+'t1" 11Ze it, The f1'1n.'le fly lays from 700 to 15n e'g: , eepo:>iting them in rows of rimy lar five on the surface of the wheat leaf near the ground. From these small maggots I soon hatch out aria bu1'1'u'. b 'n('ath the sheaf and' in'.1 the stalk wt•hertt, they absorb the j'aieta, of the plant. After a time the ,r=ant, turn y • 11ow and die, which is u.uully the tilt in- dication of the insect's presence. "After some time the maggot be- comes full-grown, its skill muttons, turns brown, and it forms a pepariunl which is callrtl the "flax -sued" stage, from its resent bianee in size, color and shape to tete sled. In this con- dition it peen.; tho winter, fully pro- tected by its position in the stelae and safe from injury. In the following May the fie- emerges and el.powits its eggs for the production of a second brood. These eggs are laid, upon the young spring wheat at one of the low- er joints of the stem, and upon any of the fall plants that have escaped the pnevious.attack and survived the winter. The effect of the work of the maggot is to cause a weakening and hardening of the stem at the point of attack, which results in the bending down or breaking olf of the plant. .The flax -seed stage is reached in due course and the insect remains in that condition, till the crop is harvested. As the pest, when present, is usually very numerous, great damage is done to both the fall and spring crops and very serious loss is suffered by the , farmer, Remedies. - Prevention in' this case is•better than lure. It has been found that fall wheat may escape at- tack if sown not earlier than the 20th of September in 'southwestern On- tario, or a little earlier in other parts of the Province. T:.e parent flies are on the wing at tne beginning of September and by the daes mention- ed, the period of egg -laying is over. This plan can be made, more certain of success if a strip of wheat is sown at the beginning of the Month to serve as a trap crop. The flies lay their eggs on these early plants be- fore the main crop. is above ground. By ploughing under this strip the brood.is effectually destroyed and all danger is escaped. - After the crop of an ,infested field has been taken off, it practicable, the stubble: should.:be burned,•" but 'if this cannot be'done,. it should be -ploughed deeply under -to prevent the files Which are. about to hatch out to reach the Buri ece of the ground and escape for the. production of another brood:. Wheat should hot brown'agate on the same piece of ;ground teeeat least a couple of years. As many of the "flax -seeds" remain in the straw, it is advisable to collect and burn the screenings from the threshing ma- chine.

FARM BUTTER AT FAIRS Hints for Fanners' Wives With Dairy Exhibits. Flavor In Butter of First Import: elite -,--, Firmness Also a Strong Point ..flow to Cure end Pack In Best Condition for Showing, (Contributed by p Ontario De artment or Agriculture, xorontt>.) 0 show or not to shoe,,' that is the question many a woman thinks over as the time draws near for the holding of the annual fall fair. There are some who would not bliss the event, and make entries in Many classes; while others are rather timid about exhibiting, :especially if they are doing it for the ant time. Let us take the exhibiting of but-. ter, Sometimes a woman goes halia.e from the fair feeling rather hurt be - rause some neighbor took more and higher prizes than she did, She thought that her butter was good, but the outer must have been con- sideredbetter by the one who was acting as Judge. There are tithes when a judge has to mark very closely to place the Prizes. Score cards are not used et all of our fairs, nor do all judges use the sante score card, but the one proposed by the National...Dairy Council reads as follows, as regards points awarded; Flavor...,.,.. ..,. 45 Texture ,• ..., ifs Incorporation of moisture. 10 Color 10 Saltine . ....... ..... 10 Peeking ... ........... 10 44 Total ....... 100 The flavor of till. butter is a very important point is consider•. It should be clean and sweet without taint of any kind. An objeetlonable flavor, no platter how slight, would prevent one receiv- ing a full score. Some defects in flavor are more ierlous than others, but many of theae could be avoided by taking a little more care. The care in the stable and in the separator room. is just as Important as the churning or the holding of the butter:. afterwards. If a judge should And two lots of butter with the sauce total score he would give the higher place to the tot with the better flavor. The texture of the butter is an- other point that is taken into con- sideration. Butter should have good body -firm and waxy. You have cut butter that looked good and remained firm on the plate, but you have also seen just the oppo- site to this butter that had a greasy appearance, the drops of moisture large and milky, and It became soft when left in the plate for a short time. Tlie judge comes across just as great contrasts when going through the exhibits and 11e scores accord- ingly, To secure good texture it is neces- nary to make use of suitable temper- atures and to work the butter in the right way. Cool the cream immedi- ttely after separating and churn it at a temperature that will bring the butter in nice firm granules in 20 to 30 minutes. (Too high temperature means soft butter and greater loss in the buttermilk). The temperature of the wash water should be such that it will not make the butter too herd or too soft for working. Work the butt : r by press ing it carefully and evenly-. A sliding or cutting motion will tend to make Ilse butter greasy. Overworking should also be avoided. Butter is worked to make it compact and to distribute the salt and moisture even- ly. When butter is cut the surface should be close and the drops of moisture should be clear and very minute, The color of the butter should be even and bright. If the butter is' not worked enough the color will be un- even, although this is not noticeable at the time of working. If the butter is too soft, the salt should be mixed through it, and the butter placed where it will come to a proper firmness before working. By doing this it will score higher for both texture and color than it would if worked in the soft state. The salt in -the butter should be evenly distri- buted and thoroughly dissolved. It Is better to have the butter salted very lightly .than` to have it over - salted. The popular butter at the present time has mild clean Savor, close body and light salting. The finish or packing should also be considered. In fact, the -judge will notice the appearance of the exhibit before he has had time to draw out a plug ot butter on his trier. Let the prints be well made - solid, even, with clear-cut corners and the Papers wrapped neatly. : Butter tube and boxes require a fining of parchment paper, and crocks should be in good ,condition, tree 'from cracks or,breaks in the glaring. The top of a large• package should be smoothly finished and covered neatly with parchment paper. . Wetter for ' exhibition should be made 'two days or more before 'the fair to give it time to become set. It Should be kept in a clean "hoot place on the farm, and be brought to the fair in the best. possible condition. Butter made and cared for in this sway will score higher- than it would if made„ the'•merning of the fair, as is sometimes+the case. Do+not feel discouraged if you• do! not secure the prizes that you hoped to vein.
