Upwarda of twenty-five members oi the staff left by cars, immediately after dinner and lost no time in reaching the grounds where every- one immediately entered into the spirit cf the occasion starting in bathing, organizing games and in less time than it takes to wll, Prcwse Bros. annual outing was in full swing. The time passed happily and quickly, and before one could realize the call for supper was sounded and, the gay throng rcmped to a shady grove not far from the beach where the ladies had a supper spread tit for a King, and to which full justice was done. Games were continued until dusk and although a most enjoyable pro- gramme was carried out, under the direction of Mr. 1?. McTague, chair- man oi the picnic committee, time -wa.s not left for a great many events which were on the programme. Before leaving for home all ex- pressed the wish that next 5'98!‘ would see such another successful outing, such as is held yearly by this well known firm of Prowse Bros Ltd. Caterpillars m Attacking Willows And Poplars These caterpillars are larvae oi the Satin Moth which was in- troduced“ into the United States from Europe a few years ago and are new found over a large area in the States of Massachusetts and New Mampshire. They were first found in Canada on the British Columbia coast. This was in 1920 and since that time they have be- come widespread. The first noti- ceable injury from these caterpill- ars in Prince Edward Island oc- curoed this year. The caterpillars feed on the foliage of poplars and willows and feeding extends over a long period. The larvae are black in color with s. row oi white spots along the back. CONTROL spraying the‘ trees with Arsenate of Lead two pounds to 40 gallons of water will do much to control these insects. This spray should be applied as soon as injury from the caterpillars is detected. Probably the most; objectionable feature of the Satin Moth is the habit oi the larvae of crawling over fences and buildings to the annoyance of nearby dwellers. This phase of the outbreak is best 1X1- trolled by spraying the insects with s 7% solution of Kerosene Emuls- on. This emulsion will kill the in- sects in s very short time, but must», be made carefully, or else burning of the grass and foliage will r. When only a small quantity of Kerosene Emulsion is required for .mmediate use, the fol- lowing mixture is recommended: Kerosene . . . . . . . . ..1 quart, Flour ..8ounce5.

A more stable mixture is made up as follows: . Kerosene ..2 gallons, Rain water . l gallon. Soap pound Heat the water. cut the soap in- to fine shavings and add them to the water stirring till all is dis- solved, then pour this into the kerosene and chum the whole violently with a syringe or force pump for about five minutes or until a thick creamy emulsion is produced. This makes the stock solution which as it cools thickens into a jelly-like mass. When re- quired for use dilute with nine times its measure of warm water. The stock solution when properly made will keep for months if kept from the air.

As a rule they can enjoy the open sir for most of the day. Distemper and bronchial complaints are not so pre- valent as in winter, nor are the old. er ones troubled so much with rheu- matAsm. Bo long as they have fresh drinking water always avallable,and opportunity for lying in the shade they should be happy. so fa;- we have had no reason to grumble about excessive heat, but should it come, dogs are all the better for getting their principal exercise in the early morning or evening. Some of them feel the heat a good deal, especially the heavy and more leth- argic kinds, such as bulldogs, which sometimes succumb to heat stroke. One unpleasant complaint that causes much discomfort is common- er in hot weather. That is eczema which appears in several forms. Perhaps the most common is that often mismlled red ma" ge. This is an inflammatory condition of the skin that usually begins as a red- dish patch. By repeatedly scratch- ing or rubbing the dog makes the place raw and sore. In time it. may extend to other parts of the body and become a source of much dis- comfort, allowing the sufferer no rest. Prompt treatment is to be 're- commended as soon as any redness of the skin is seen. A bath con- taining s. little Jeyes’ Fluid fre- quently afiords relief. If this does not check it there are preparations on the market. such as eczema lo- tion and eczema ointment. An or- dinary ointment of sulphur mixed with vaseline 1s an old remedy. Boracic powder, or starch and oride of zinc in equal parts may be dusted on the raw spots. What is known as dry eczema is s. different complaint. It usually begins near the root of the tail and spreads along the back. The hair falls of’! and the skin becomes wrinkled. The places should be well dressed with lotion or ointment. Prevention is better than cure. Unsuitable feeding or insufficient exercise may bring about digestive disorders that affect the blood and ultimately give rise to eczema. Worms, too, are responsible, and if there is the least suspicion of these parasites in the intestines, a dose of, medicine should be given suitable to the size and age of the dog. Puppies are infested with round worms that require a. special agent for their ex- pulsion. Adults generally have tape worms, the segments of which may sometimes be seen in the evacua- tions as small organisms less than half an inch in length. Until the whole oi the parssfte comes away, including its head, it will continue to grow. That is why it is so necessary to observe the directions about admin- istering the physic on an empty stomach. It then has b, better chance of acting effectively. A course of sltemative condition pow- ders will coo] of! the blood, also a dose of Epsom salts is useful. leeks or onions. lightly boiled, given with a meal twice a week are thought to be excellent. and garlic has many advocates. Trainers of racing grey- hounds are great believers in the Welsh national vegetable. and some put a small quantity of caraway seeds in each meal in the conviction that it aids digestion.

This information is at the service of everyone. Climbing plants usually make rlPId Ifowth when once establish- ed.

It has been reported from the Maritime Prov- inces, Quebec, Ontario and British Columbia. Affected turnips are un- fit for table use. Unlike many other diseases there are no signs of the trouble evident on the tops and the outside of the bulb, therefore it is necessary to cut into the turnip to detectthe symptoms. In the early stages brown heart appears as a water soaked spot generally in the centre oi’ the bulb. Usually the symptoms are not noticeable until the turnip is about two and one- half to three inches in diameter. In advanced stages the greater part of the flesh of the turnip may show a brownish discoloration. In certain cases affected parts break down forming a cavity while in others a soft rot develops which may destroy the turnip. Extensive experiments conducted under the direction of the Dominion Laboratory of Plant Pathology at Fredericton, N.B., at a. number of Experimental Stations and under commercial conditions on farms, show that this disease can be prevented by applying borax at the rate of 10 pounds per acre to the soil prior to seeding. The borax may be applied with the fertilizer or mixed with fine earth or any other suitable material to give it sufficient bulk for easy handling. Borax can be procured at any drug store and should be in a finely pow- dered form. The trials conducted to date show that borax at the rate recommended does not affect the yield of the turnip and has appar- ently no detrimental efiect on crops in the following years. Treat- ed turnips may show a slight yel- lowish discoloration after the first leaves have formed. This discolor- ation will disappear, however, in the course of a few weeks, and may be prevented by applying the horax two or three days before seeding. Fertilizer to which borax has been added should not be used for pota- toes or beans on account of the fact that these crops are extremely sen- sitive to the toxic eflect of the chemical. Further information on the subject may be obtained by communicating with the nearest Plant Pathological Laboratory. Last 0i The Quints Should See Year 2017 TOR/ONTO, July 11—Whlle the Dionne quintuplets, well into their second year, continue to live and thrive under the guardianship of the King as represented by the province o! Ontario, the statisticians have been working out their ex- pectation of life as a. group and to the last individual among them. In surviving together to their first birthday-this according to the statistical service of a. large life insurance company-this group of five baby girls successfully over- came risks equivalent to those that one female individual meets in the course ‘if her first 51 years. Actual- ly the Dionne babies were premat- urely born. and this fact. increased their risks enormously. Having survived this period any one of these children considered separately has now an expe:tation of life oi 65 years, and statistically speaking the group should not be broken by death before the age of 30. But the longest-lived among them has. a greater expectation of life than any random one of them, viz., as years. All these flgures are based on average and of course the Dlonnes ‘mayflfo better. One fact that it‘ is not possible to take into account in the computation is that the child- ren are of the "ldentlfical" kind of multiple birth and therefore prob- ably have similar such as would tend, barring accid- ents. to cause them all to survive to about the same age.

What The Moon Is Like If you lived on the moon you couldn't strike a match, much less light a fire. A match ca; only burn in air. and there is no air worth considering on the moon. You would have to have a very special kind of breathing apparatus. Sup- pose you had brought your own sup- ply of oxygen, what then? You would also have to wear a special kind of suit which would keep out a heat about that of boiling water and a coolness perhaps 200 degrees below zero. Now there is nothing to eat and nothing to drink on the moon. so you would have to bring your own provisions. If you were armed with all these things, a brief stay would certainly be interesting. suppose, when you had finished your first 55111111110116!» you blew up the paper ball and burst it. You would hear nothing at all. You would have to talk to the rat of the party in deaf and dumb language, because they couldn't hear you speak. N0 sound whatever would break the stillness, for sound exists only in air. For the same reason you would never feel the wind on your face. Wind is sim- ply movement of air. The fun would begin when you walked about. You would feel so light that you would stagger this way and that. You could jump over a rock 20 ft. high, and come down on the other side without a scratch or even a bruise. If you had taken your bicycle. and were thrown over the handlebars one day, you would fall gently and softly. You could Iprobably ride your bicycle at 9D mil- es an hour with ease round and round the flat part of the moon's craters for hours at a time. The weather wouldn't be so much fun. A fortnight of every month would be wrapped in night far cold- er than Siberia. The other you would have to spend in the sizzling, blistering heat of the sun. It is Just possible that you might be caught in an earthquake-or moonquake— for the moon is still hot inside. Then. it would be time to pack up and hurry home! Broilers For Market (Experimental Farms Note) Broilers may be considered in the luxury class of food products, when properly prepared for market. When disposing of the surplus cockerels as broilers it is well to bear this in mind and market the birds in the- mcst attractive Way. It pays to please the buyer, and when there is keen competition it becomes still more advisable. When catering to a select private trade it may speed up sales if the carcass is completely dressed and put up in an attractive carton. When sold drawn. the shrinkfle will be about 40 per cent of the live weight, and g proportionate price must be realized to pay for the loss in weight and extra labour. Those birds should be selected that have made good growth, and are plump and well feathered. The well feath- ered birds have less pin-feathers and nseque itly‘ dress better. Starve the birds for at least twelve hours, but give plenty of‘ fresh drinking water before killing-g K111 them by braining and bleeding, and dry pick. sometimes to save time the semi-scald may be advis- able. In this case bleed. and thor- oughly immerse the carcars for not more than 30 seconds in water heated to a temperature of not more ihtm 121 deg. F. It is im- portant to keep the water at an even temperature; over-heating will give a skin-cooked. unattractive ap- "pearanoe. Cost of production records at the Dominion Experimental Station, Harrow, show that it requires ap- proximately five pounds or feed to raise s. broiler on range from chick to two-pound ‘Wight. The total cost will vary according to the number raised, price of feed. mortality. price of chick, and brooder fuel consumed. It may be rouahly esti- mated that the feed cost is slightly under half the total cost at present prices and under average conditions. STEPHEN FOSTERIS DAUGHTER DIES PITIBBIIRGH.
