Perhaps a community spraying PTO-i"! 9011M be organized by Krollps such as the Junior Farmers. There s not much point one man Spraying his orchard, if the fly is allowed to develop on his nelgl-r. bors trees." he continued.

_In commercial apple growin: dis- tricts in Nova Scotia and British Columbia, such spraying l; com. llulsory and the government spray moves in if the grower himself neglects to spray—and it is charg. ed against the land,

Dropped Apples

To get a start on the apple-mag- got for next year dropped apples should be picked at least twice a week. These should either be fed or destroyed, so that the maggot will not have a chance to get into the ground and perpetuate itself.

Infested fruit usually drops ear- lier. After a few days the maggot leaves the apple and goes into the ground where it forms a pups and remains until it hatches the foi- lowlng summer.

Spraying at the proper time kills the adult fly before it gets a chance tn lay its eggs into the small apples on the trees. The flies feed from the Wax-like coating on the surface of the apple, with their spongy beaks, When there is also a film of poison they are killed im- mcdiately.

When spraying is delayed and the egg is laid, the chance to control the maggot has passed. Inside the apple, the egg develops into the maggot and it begins to destroy the fruit.

Solutions Recommended

The Laboratories recommend an immediate and thorough spraying with an arsenate solution. One and a half pounds of arsenate of lead in forty gallons of water has been found to be the most effective.

If arsennie of lead is unobtaln- able, a pound and s half of arsen- ate of lime in forty gallons of water mixed with s pound and a half of

hydrated lime to prevent burning of the loaves, will also kill the fly.

A second spraying is necessary 14 days later in order to kill those flies which may develop later in the season.

Mr. Mayhev/‘s visit to New- foundland will be his first since that Island became Canada’s 10th Province. An extensive itinerary has been planned so that he may visit as many fishing localities as possible.

With Mr. Mayhew and Mr. Bates will be Ian S. McArthur, director of economics in the Fisheries De- partment and acting chairman oi the Fisheries Prices Support Board. Mr. Mayhew recalled in the an- nouncement that he had announ- ced May 5 the Government's pro- posed plan for assistance to thfl fishing industry. The purpose of his meetings with representatives of the industry was to outline that policy more fully and "to invite suggestions from the industry be- fore the program is finalized.” Inauguration of the program will require changes in some leg- islation and will need the active support and co-operstion of the industry, he said.

The party will be greeted by Premier Smsllwood of Newfound- land on a ival there Thursday. They will guests Friday of Sir Albert Walsh. the Lieutenant- Govemor. Later that day they will meet with the Newfoundland Fish- eries Board.

The following day they will in- spect fish processing plants in St. John's and will meet with fisher- men in nearby communities. The Saturday program also calls for a

duction in freight rates granted on some hauls in the Maritime! under the Maritime Freight Rates Act of 1927. This reduction is underwritten by the Federal tress-

ury.

2. Extension of the Actso that reductiouwouid be given on Nova Scotia-originated traffic on the full length of the hauls to which they apply. At present, on move- ments out of the Maritlmes, the decreased charge applies only as far as the New Brunswick-Quebec border.

3. Reduced freight tolls on com- modities travelling into Nova Sco- tla from outside the Maritimes to be processed or used in manufac- ture.

4. Federal subsidization to cover the proposed rate reduction and Maritime Freight Rates Act ex- tension.

In both the Nova Scotia brief and a submission from the Mari- time Board of Trade, the three- man Commission under Hon. -W. F. A. Turgeon heard objections to the percentage - type freight - rate increase granted to the railways last year by the Board of Trans- port Commissioners.

Rand l-l. Matheson of Moncton. N. B., manager of the Board's Transportation Commission, de- clared in a 50,000-word brief which he began reading today that flat increases of that kind run contrary to the interests of the Maritimes, particularly be- cause much of the traffic in this area is long-haul movements.

Increases of that type. Mr. Mathesen's brief said, "not only worsen relatively the competitive position of Maritime industries in the markets of Canada but also increase relatively consumer and producer costs."

Percentage Increases

The Nova Scotia Government brief specified that percentage in- creases should not be made on long-haul rail traffic moving to or from Nova Scotia.

The request for steamship as- sistance came from a group 0f ghipplng companies operating out of mainland ports to Newfound- land, who contended that rates on those routes had been forced down to uneconomic levels when the nationally-owned Canadian National Railways took over the ship service between North Syd- ney, N. S., and Port Aux Basques, Ntid. _

The C. N.R. put in “aii-rail" rates between Canadian and New- foundland points over this route. The companies contended this meant their cargo-handling charg- es at the ports were being sub- sidized by the Dominion Govern- znent-which absorbs C.N.R. de- flcits-and they asked they be granted a subsidy of $2.50 s ton on cargo received from the rail- ways.”

The companies also proposed that freight-rate reductions under the Maritime Freght Rates Act be made to apply to water ship- ments or rail-water shipments between Newfoundland and points in the Maritimes and Quebec. G. Mel... Daley, K.C., of Halifax, appearing for the vessel compan- ies. contended that at present the M.F.R.A. subsidy bears the cost to the C. N. R. of trans-shipping Newfoundland-mainland traffic be- tween North Sydney and PO11 aux Basques. It should be ex- tended to other companies that do not have the all-rail provision, he said.

Companies making the submis- sion were Newfoundland-Canada Steamships, Ltd., of Halifax. and the Furness-Red CrOSS Lilli’- and Furness-Warren Line of London. whose agent is Furness-Withy. s.m.. of Montreal. They operate out of Montreal, Halifax and Saint John. N. B.
