Notice is hereby given pursuant Spray Effectively — now to
'Nhk'h is ctilleit the ''"ifax-send" stage,
from its resemblance in size, color
and shape to this seed, In this con,
dition it passes the winter, fully pro-
tected by its position in the stem and
safe from injury. in the following
' May the fly emerges and deposits 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 previous 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 off 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 cure. It has been
found that fall wheat may escape at-
tack if sown not earlier than the 2 Oth
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 the 'beginning of
September and by the dates mention-
ed, the period of egg -laying is over.
This plan can be macre 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, if practicable, the
.stubble should be burned; but if this
cannot be done, it should be ploughed
deeply under to prevent the flies
which are about to hatch out to reach
the sur,:ace of the ground and escape
for the production of another brood.
Wheat should not be grown again on
the same piece of ground for at least
a coupe of years. As many of the
"flax -seeds" remain in the straw, it
is adv.^able to collect and burn the
screen' 'as from the threshing ma -

When they returned we decid-
ed to see more of the many lakes
in this Vicinity and take a few
snapshots iof our catch and of the
matchless scenery that everywhere
greeted our eyes. 'We went
back to Duck Lake and from then
ce to Mud Lake where we failed to
see the mud. At the head of this
lake we viewed the remains of a
huge dam which, when the pines
were being taken out, had raised
the level of the lakes to such a
height that all the connecting 'ere-.
eks with their rapids were drow-
tied to make log driving easy. Near
the old 'spill -way I tried my rod
;for the last time. The fish bit

of the guide. In spite of many

was gradually pulled in, hand ov-

pounds el black bass. Such is
their fighting power that, inch

made of the ravages of this

The insect gets its name from the
supposition that it was brought to
America in straw carried by some
Hessian soldiers, who were sent out
from England during the Revolution-
ary war. These troops landed on
Long Island in 1776, and three years

Later sprayings are required as an
insurance against Late Blight and
Rot of Potatoes, which is the most
serious disease of potatoes in Ontario.
This disease usually appears about
the middle of July if the weather is
at all damp. Therefore, it is neces-
sary to begin spraying for it about
the 10th of July. Bordeaux mixture
is the only satisfactory fungicide for
the control of Late Blight and Rot

installing these goodu.`
ber of sprayings required will depend
upon the season, the wetter the wea-
ther the larger the number. In wet
weather spraying should be done at
least once every ten days or two
weeks. Ero riot put off spraying be-
cause it looks like rain. If the spray
is on the plants half an hour before
• the rain comes it will 'be dry and
sufficient of it will stick to prevent
infection which takes place during
or soon after rain. Most of the fail-
ures to get results from spraying are
due to the fact that the spraying is
done after rather than before rain.
Thorough spraying only is effec-
tive, and this requires sufficient Bor-
deaux mixture. For the late spray-
ings from 75 to 100 gallons or even
more should be applied per acre at
each spraying. Thorough spraying
means the covering of every portion
of the potato plants with Bordeaux
mixture in the form of a fine mist.
This can only be done when the spin -
tion is applied with a good pressure
so as to insure covering every por-
tion of the plant. The best results
are obtained when a potato sprayer
is used fitted with a T -joint attach-
ment so as to insure covering both
surfaces of the leaves at each spray-
ing. When the plants are large it has
been found that it pays to go over
each row twice at each spraying.
Spraying must be continued through-
out August and- part of September,
even though the plants close in and
hover the ground between the rows.
Not as much harm as Wright be ex-
pected Will be done by the wheels
and tits increase in yield and sound-
, ness of the crop will more than com-
pensate for whatever loss there may
be Per convenience in spraying,
rows of potatoes should be at least
thirty inches apart. Spraying for Late
Blight and Rot is an insurance which
few can afford to neglect.—Prof.
