A despatch from Winnipeg says: - Dominion bug experts will import from the United States this summer a horde of parasitic wasps which they will turn loose in the Canadian corn belt to destroy and fatten upon their hereditary enemy, the corn boring worm. The campaign will be waged along lines drawn by W. R. Walton, super- intendent of the insect division of the United States Bureau of Entomology, who offered his aid at a recent meet- ing of grain growers. Wherever corn is grown in America, there lives the corn borer, taking his toll of millions of dollars from the value of the crops each year. He makes his home within the green husk) of the tender plant, and eats his way over the milky ear, completing his work of destruction long before the crop matures. Until the United States entomolo- gists discovered in France the tiny wasp, there was no known means of destroying the borer without also de- stroying the corn. This insect does the trick, according to Mr. Walton. Brought to America to a new hunt- ing ground, it was discovered he Tiked the climate, reared large families, and. had a predilection for corn borers, making his home in the husk of the ear within easy striking distance of his game. With the aid of this parasite Con- siderable progress has been made to- ward exterminating the borer from the corn fields of the United States, Ur. Walton reported. It is now plan- ned • to bring several armies of the insect from the Government nurseries across the border and liberate them, in midsummer, in Ontario and other provinces of the corn belt where the borer has been most destructive. Unique Canadian Gift for Royal Bridal Pair A despatch from Ottawa says: -- During his recent visit to England, Major H. K. Hodgson, private secre- tary to His Excellency the Governor- General, presented to .Their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of York, the wedding gift of Lord and Lady Byng of Vimy The wedding present was a handsome rug made of the hide of the largest Buffalo billed •at Wainwright Park last year. The presentation was made at Bucking- ham Palace, and Their Royal High- nesses expressed their pleasure at re- ceiving such a characteristically Can- adian gift. Wheat grown in Western Canada has for several years been in demand from all parts of the United States and the Old World. That the reputa- tion of this high grade wheat is in- creasing is evident from the fact that a local seed company recently received an order for 500,000 bushels of seed wheat from the Argentine Republic. Princess to 'Marry 'Commoner • Another British pl•in•cess, Princess Maud, daughter of the late Princess Royal, Duchess of Fife, .is to marry ilord Carnegie, the eldest son of the Earl of Col tbosa., She is a niece of the Khig.
