Poison Ivy Time
A reminder at this time of year
to watch for poison ivy is never out
of 'place, Holidays are coming up
with viasummer
� t s ts ta
o cottages,
tramps in the woods, picnics at the
Seaside; and poison ivy grows in
most unexpected places.
The best way to avoid it is to
recognize it. Although it general-
ly grows as a trailing vine, or as
a number of separate plants form-
ing patches of varying' thickness
and size, it may climb a tree • or
telegraph pole for a considerable
height. Its leaves are arranged
alternately on the woody stem whir
each leaf bearing three leaflets,
which may vary in size, shape, col-
or or in outline but which will al-
ways be in threes.' Clusters of
greenish -yellow fruits about the
size of peas develop on poison ivy
in some localities and these fruits
turn white. Poison ivy is the only
common plant in Canada, having
trifoliate leaves and white fruit.
The rash which can 'prove so dis-
tressing to many people is caused
by mining into contact with the
non-volatile sticky substance' which
is on the plant. This substance
may remain active on gloves, shoes
and picnic baskets . for months.
Dogs, cats or even smoke from
burning poison ivy can transmit'he
substance,•
If poison ivy does crone in con-
tact with the skin, washing'immedi-
ately with laundry soap, preferab-
ly with warm water,. will 'help.
Washing with alcohol, 'kerosene or
gasoline would be of some value if
soap and water is not to hand.
"Wasp -waists are flack in style,"
said Mrs. Bilson, "They were when
you were courting me, dear."
"I remember," said Mr. Bilson.
"That's how a lot of men got
stung."

All Round Health Hints
Living by a few good rules helps
to keep the average person in first
class condition. A regular medical
health check-up by the doctor,
twice -yearly visits to the dentist,
and a 'balanced diet, with adequate
rest to prevent fatigue. will 'all
help in promoting a good healthy
way of life,
Smile Aid
The teeth are one of the most
important features and should re-
ceive lifelong care. There is noth-
ing attractive in a smile that re-
veals discolored or crooked teeth
and this is a matter that can us-
ually be prevented if dental 'trou-
bles are treated in time and if the
owner will exercfl'e'care in brush-
ing the teeth immediately after
eating.
Good Red Blood
To keep the body in top condi-
tion, good red (blood is necessary.
To have (this. essential richness,
there must be a constant supply
of iron, provided by t 'e diet. Many
foods are rich in this mineral.
Among them are beef and the var-
iety meats such as liver, kidney,
heart and tongue. Eggs, cheese
and most of the dark green vege-
tables are also good sources of
supply. Lack of iron in the blood
often causes people to become
pale, thin and undernourished, but
with an' iron -rich diet the condition
is greatly helped.
Senior Diet
The older person usually finds
warm foods more welcome than
cold, even In summer time. If the
senior citizen has dental troubles,
the more solid food's should be
chopped. While these people re-
quire the same nourishment as in
previous years, the amounts re-
quired may be less.• It is often
found that four or five lighter
mauls, In, the day are preferable to

The restocking of Ontario's lakes
and streams with game fish frim
government hatcheries has for
years been a matter of much hard
work and worry. .The unwieldy
cans full of water., and fish often
had to be carried quite a distance
from the trucks to the required wa-
ters for planting, There was, too,
the worry as to whether the young
fish 'would survive the longer jour-
neys.
From pow on, however, accord-
ing to reports received from the
North Bay and Sault Ste. Marie
district offices of the Department
01 Landis and Forests, fish planting
in 'Ontario will, or should, become,
a comparative 'pleasure.
Now the planting will 'be done
from aircraft. The new planting
technique, made possible by new
equipment designed 'by the Sault
Ste. Marie staff, is being used in
the North Bay district this sum-
mer.
Unique Planting Equipment
'Not that young fish have not been
planted from. the air before this,
but the new equipment will great-
ly facilitate the operation. More,
the fish will be transported safely
and planted accurately in the 'wa-
ters .selected from a height of
from 300 to 500'•feet elevation with
the assurance of 100 per cent sur-
vival. Too, the fish can 'be plant-
ed in small lakes and streams oth-
erwise inaccessible to` aircraft and
difficult of approach ay road.
A further advantage of the new
method will be a sharp reduction
in the time required to transport
and plant young fish from the
hatcheries, help speed up the total
stocking ,program and effect sav-
ings in hatchery operating x.pense,
as well as in distribution costs.
The new aerial planting equip-
ment is unique in design, and fits
snugly into the Department's Beav-
er aircraft. The two large tanks,
carried in the plane's cabin, are
constructed entirely of aluminum
for lightness. Each contains 12
trays full of water in which the
fingerlings or yearling fish are ac-
commodated until released, An oxy-
een tank is connected with the fish
tanks so that the water contain-
ing the young fish can be aerated
while enroute to their new homes.
Down the Hatch ,•
An aluminum funnel, designed to
serve as a simple release mechan-
ism, fits into the aircraft's aerial
camera hatch. This hatch is set
into the floor near the rear end of
the cabin and is 18 inches in diame-
ter. The opening is also used for
cargo dropping to fire -fighting
crews and for the 'water -bombing
of forest fires, as well as to accom-
nrodate the large aerial survey
cameras.'
The release funnel his equipped
with a large plunger type valve.
When the area in which the fish
are to be planted is reached, the
trays are removed from the tanks
as required and fish and water
poured from them into the funnel.
Hose leading from the tanks sup-
ply additional water if needed. Re-
lease of the fish from the aircraft
into the desired lake or stream 'be-
low is accomplished by simply
raising the plunger. The fish auto-
matically drop through.
Experiments in preparation for
and leading to the practical design
and application of the aerial fish
planting equipment by the Depart-
ment's Sault Ste; -.Marie staff re-
sulted in 100 per cent survival of
the yearling speckled trout used in
proving the 'project
To Freeze Vegetables
1, Sort and wash, firm vegetables.
Prepare as for table use, cutting
lengths according to type of freez-
ing box.
2. All vegetables are then blanch-
ed or scalded to keep their color
and stop chemical action. It is im-
portant to use only enough water
to cover and to have the cheese-
cloth bag or sieve for the vege-
taebles that can be held in the boil-
ing ,water for -the •25 to 45 -second
period. Keep 'the bag or sieve
moving 'and 'also watch the clock
during scalding period.
3. Cool the hot food quickly in
take sugars in very great 'quan-
tity.
Helping the Retarded Child
In many families. there is a small
child who is backward or retarded.
Such youngsters are often able to
respond to careful training in 'the
home, In commenities where there
are many such children, the local
education authorities sometimes
provide school facilities for them.
Where there are too few for of-
ficial help, the mothers may or-
ganize a group for the 'purpose of
holding classes in which the back-
ward little ones can be taught sim-
ple lessons and games, a :procedure`
which helps to teach the children
teamwork, and give's an impetus to
their progress by 'bringing them in-
to contact with others of similar
age and condition.
