Used in Winnipeg Mosquito Control To control mosquitos, nine thousand gallons of fuel oil containing one ton of DDT was sprayed .on the north south and west suburbs of Winnipeg in the Red and' Assiniboine river vel- leys ufter the flood waters had sub- sided. Entomologists of the Depart- ment of Agriculture at Ottawa 'were asked by. the Health and Public Wel- fare Department of the Manitoba Government to undertake this part of the clean-up. Through the "cooperation of the R.C.A.F., two Dakota DC-3's equipped for spraying were provided and cover- ed 20 square miles in the short space of three days so successfully, that ground checks indicated nearly 90 per cent control of mosquitos In the sprayed areas, Working from base lines indicated on the ground--usually a road, with the swath intervals marked off by a vehicle bearing a luminescent panel visible from the .air--and assisted by maps and two-way radio, the planes systematically covered swaths of two hundred yards wide while traveling at 150° miles -an hour at an -average height of about 200 feet. Dr. C. R. Twinn, the Federal Gov- ernment entomologist who was in charge of the operations, says that a feature of the work was the success- attached to the planes when spraying over market garden areas, This de- vice, weighing only 17 pounds, was 'designed by Dr. A. W. A. Brown of the Department while engaged in ex- perimental work 'in mosquito and fly control at Goose Bay, Labrador. Dr. Brown directed the spraying at Win- nipeg. The oil and DDT is emitted from the nozzle of this special appli- Cec. King AGENT Port Perry Phone 2793 ENROL EARLY in the PETERBORO BUSINESS COLLEGE, LTD.

This pressure _breaks up the spray -into very fine droplets which would not cause injury to young vegetables and flowers. Generally the methods used at Win- nipeg were those developed during the past three years in mosquito and other biting fly control studies in the Can- adian north, particularly at Fort 'Churchill. This work has been done at the request of the Défence Re- search" Board, with the Federal ento- mologists and other Departments and organizations cooperating. > ---- The Chinese fly kites-which have strings stretched across openings. in the. paper, produce the effect of an aerial chorus. #* * * In snakes and gecko lizards the tear duct opens into the mouth. - * * * Body temperature reaches" its low- est point carly in the morning.
