Mr. Nicholson was born on Nu- vember l0, i865. on the fan-iii

wwhere he lived all his life. He‘

was one of sevcn children of whom only one h s. survived him, his twin sister, l\l s. Dan Stewart, now llving in Cambridge, Mass.

In iasu he married Sdrlh Nich~ ‘

clson, who passed away three years ago after a long illness. ‘They have one son, Dr. Daniel Nicholson, vmo ls Professor of Pathology in the Faculty of Mod- icine in Winnipeg, Manitoba.

Mr. Nicholson always resided on the far-m on which he was born and was known throughout the district as a successful farmer. Through his industry and good judgment he improved his farm and home and was always a cen- tre of attractiveness and hospit- Al").

During his later Nicholson made a number of trips away from home. He twice paid long visits to his son ln Win- nipeg and also visited New York, Boston and Vancouver at various limes. But he always remained loyal to the Island and was glad to return to his home.

Mr. Sterling of Vaileyﬂﬂd UYlliEd Churda.

_________..__. UNWEIICOME VISITOR COMES T0 CANADA

F981‘! Mr.

‘rm specimens of an unfamiliar tick discovered ’ Torznto, Mont- treal and other parts of Eastern Canadn recently have been identi- fied by Dr. CR. ‘Twinn, Division of Entomology, Science Service, Do- minion Detinrtiment of Agriculture. as the brow-n dog tick. The discov- ery is an I teresting one, says Dr. Twinn, because the species in Can- ada. has been recorded only in a. few places. The brown dog tick is an Old World so" ‘es which estab- lished itself in the southern States. and ls now spreading northwards.

The normal host is dogs and these an! als and their surround- ings may eccme heavily infested. A particularly troublesome feature is that the various life stages of the tick may become established in homes where infested dogs are kept. In other words, this tick is a domestic pest. Where prevalent, the tides may occur in great num- bers around bascboards. window anti door casings, curtains, and iurniture. A favouritcmiding place la also under the edges of rugs,

In the Ur?‘ ' States, DDT has 5.9a“ 5u°°°5~'~|'“"\ used in control- ling this species. Infested dogs should be dusted with l0 per cent DDT powder or washed with water mﬂtﬂlhlhs one per cent of om‘ as a watt/able powder. To rid the ticks from ltuases. all ptllible hiding places shbuld be sptlyed with a 5 Der cent residual spray, or a 10 pg;-

W" dust may be used, blowing it‘

1111c cracks. crevices and other places. Particular attention should be given to the treatment of dog kennels and other places when dogs sleep.
