Spring Clean -Up
It Will Be Profitable to You,
and Not Only For Appear-
ance Sake
Many insects spend the win*.er.
in protected 'situations in, or neat'
the garden. Some of these hibernate.
under trash or, dead leaves. Many
are to be found in the egg stage
attached to the stems of standin,>
weeds, grasses• or shrubs. Others
may he hidden in cocoons or in the
oaterpilar stage in specially con-
structed cells or nests fastened to
plants growing in the garden last
season. No matter what the stage
in which they are now found: all are
awaiting the coming of spring when
they resume activity. Most species
are potential' trouble makers which
will immediately attack prized seed-
lings and transplants whenever the
opportunity .presents itself says A.
G. Dustan, Division of Entomology:
Dominion 'Department of Agricul-
ture.
Rake and Burn
As soon as the snow disappear;
every gardener should interest hits
self in the business of spring clean-
up. All visible egg masses, and inner'
corms should be removed ante
destroyed. Many of these will b -
found on shrubs and low trees: al
though insects comnnly spin their
nests also in stone p'lw'. nn garden
furniture and in protected situation -
around houses arid nntbtiildinrr
Standing weeds and grasses 'in the
garden. and as much nearby waste-
land as possible should be burned
over, thus destroying many insect
eggs and other stages hidden in the
duff near the soil surface. Deal'
leaves and plant refuse not removed
from the garden, last autumn .should -
be raked cop and burned.
