. GETTING RID OF WEEDS

This year "the fields are white whit daisies," as the song says, and while they may appeal to the poet, they make no hit with the farmer. The results of the experiments con- ducted by Profesor J. A. Clark, at Experimental Farm a few years ago should prove doubly interesting at this time. Mr. Clarke recommends

I (By It. P. Gotham) i Division of Field crop and Garden, Insects, Dominion Entomological Lab-i oratory, Fredericton, N. B. “Why do the leaves or my ivy turni white and look unhealthy?" ‘ This is a question frequently asked lr. early summer, particulary by town residents. When’ the entomologist Ir vcstigates, he usually finds that t3 leaves have been injured by hundre of tiny sucking. insects working r the underside and removing the ler juices. It it is early in the season ti- insecis will be wlngless and only ab‘ to crawl about on the lesf surface Later in the season they will fly out’ in numbers when the leaves are dis-I turbcd, only to return again in a‘ short time. - The insect is the grape leafhoppe one of a numerous group of small sucking insects which feed upon th- leaves of many kinds oi plants. T‘ grape lcafhopper- passes the wiv- under fallen leaves and debris the ground and comes out early the spring to lay eggs on the yo! leaves of the vlrglnla creeper; Frz these hatch the small nymphs or ini mature forms of this insect which cause the injury to the leaves. Careful raking and burning o1 all fallen leaves and debris in fail and early spring ls on: control measure: which everyone can practice to ad-i a niage, If the hibernating form can be Ii destroyed before eggs are laid in spring, considerable injury can be prevented. when the ﬁrst signs of injury are noticed the undersides of the leaves should be sprayed or dust-' ed with a contact insecticide to de- stroy the young nymphal forms.

A GANNET

Byt the courtesy of a friend 1 had an opportunity last night, of ex- amining a gannet which had been entangled in a fishing net and drowned. These birds are said to have their nestlngpiaoes on Bird Rock and Bonaventure Island in the Gull of 8t. Lawrence, "in these places they nest by thousands, their rough piles-oi sea-weed touchln each other in long rows in the narrow ledges." The gannet beionll t0 the "m! family u the pelicans and cormor- ants, and is in colour white, only the tips of the wings being black. The bill and feet are bluish black.

structurally the gannet preterm many points worthy oi note. such a: its closed nostrils, its aborted ton- guqanditstmasiiccnnestedwitb
