' To Keep Garden Free From Slugs , Slugs are the grey, siiail-likc creatures which rasp tlie leaves of tender vegetables, leaviiiK a slimy trail on the foliage and on the soil beneath ^he plants. They shun dayliBht and thrive only where there is an abundance of moisture. 1)eing most troublesome in rainy seasons, in damp shady cor- ners of the garden, and in ' low- lying areas of heavy land Slugs will feed on almost all vegclables, hut arc particularly fond of beans, lettuce. cabbaKC and cauliflower. They attack celery in the blcacliiiig irocess. They cat shallow circular pits in the fruits of tomatoes, and in the autumn they bore into th?' roots of carrots and I'cets. » « » riants in infested soil may be protected by a thin film of hydrated lime which is dusted over the foliase and on the ground in the evening after the stiii has gone down and feeding has coiiuiienccd, says \V. G. Mattewson, Division of En- tomology, Dominion Department of .\griculture. Hydrated lime is ef- fective only when dry, and lor this reason a few dustings at intervals of three or four days is much more effective than one heavy applica- tion. The lower as well as the upper surfaces oi the leaves, should be covered and the surrounding soil should be coated in such a way that the slugs will have to crawl through the dust before they can reach the plants, or the plants may be sprayed thoroughly with bor- deaux mixture. This material is repellent to the slugs, and plants kept covered with the spray will be largely protected from attack. Baits consisting of metaldehyde and bran have given satisfactory control of slugs in small gardens but are too expensive for use under field conditions. They may be bought ready-mixed at most seed stores and should be used according to the manufacturer's directions.

Ontario Traffic Toll Sharply L^ in June Traffic accidents tt>ok the lives of 69 persons in Ontario in June and left many critically injured in hos- pitals. Analysis of fatality reports ap- pearing in provincial papers during the month shows, â€" 23 pedestrians killed. 18 drivers, 23 passengers, 4 cyclists and one person killed in a horse drawn vehicle. The death and accident loll was spread widely across the province, totalled 16 more deaths than in May and 24 more deaths ih.an in Tune of last year. Ojitario is howe\er, making pro- gress â- in traffic accident prevention but there is no justification for com- placency. Ten wars ago, in June, 19.>7. there were 7.^ persons killed and 1123 injured; in July of that year (1937) the death toll reached 101, the worst for any month in Ontario's history. Since then, the volume of. traffic in Ontario, num- ber of licensed drivers and vehicles has increased greatly and so also has the intlu.v of U.S. drivers.

Sports - And One Thing or Another By FRANK MANN HARRIS =====: ("A Sixbit CriHc") ===== Some 15 thousand people paid ac- tual money to attend a Track and Field meet in Toronto tlie other day ; and this, on the face of it. should undoubtedly crimson the cheeks of some of us writers who so brazenly assert that such affairs are painful- ly boring, and sadly lacking in cus- tomer appeal. "How long has this been going on ?" remarked one sports promoter to his partner, as they gazed on those well-fitted stands. "M.aybe, now. we've been overlook- ing a gold mine." « * » Eut ere you start feeling too badly for us in our hour of shame, or think very seriously of promoting some- thing of the sort yourself, it might be well not to overlook a couple of angles. One. that the meet in ques- tion was under the auspices oi the Police ; and in the matter of scUing tickets an Officer of the Law seems to have â€" for some reason obscure to us â€" quite an edge over, say, a mem- ber of the Y.M.C.X. * « * .\iid. Two â€" of the 15 thousand pre- sent, an estimated 14 thous.ind 9 hundred paid no attention whatever to anything except a Beauty Contest which just happened to be one of the many features. For it is a s.ad commentary on our Western civili- zation, and one that no doubt causes many head-shakings around the Kremlin, thi' a comely tomato in a bathing suit will attract more eyes th;m the greatest vaulte.r who ever climbed .a pole, « * « Which recalls llic Cof>^ tl'rilcr in the Dcf'cirlment Store ad'ccrlisiiiij bureau tclio ivas busily engaged in eoofering an annouiteetiieni for a neiv line of feminine bathing eos- liiines. His headline, as somebody took a l>eek oi'er his shoulder, read â€"SiriM SUITS DESIGXED TO REVEAL ALL MILADY'S BEST FEATURES. "Couldn't you sarc space and ivordage," said the kibit- -iT, "by just .putting a period after the ivord ALL'" * * * Whenever we see the name of Babe Didrickson Z.aharias â€" greatest girl athlete who ever lived â€" it recalls one of the funniest experiences we ever had in connection with sport. One afternoon, while his mother went shopping, we were left in charge of our three-year-old son ; and, to pass the time away, took him around to the local w lestling office. There, greatly abetted and e.'cour- aged by the grapplers sitting aroiind, he proceeded to raise merry .\iteh to such an extent that we were forced to use stern measures. These irteas- ly helpless opponentâ€" for he was one of the really "Bad Men" of that period. His name. George Zaharias â€" husband of The Babe â€" with a heart as big as himself .and as soft as cus- tard. * ♦ ♦ Wc knozv of a teen-age lad zvlia takes a rather gloomy outlook on things as they are. Trying lo get a job for the Summer Holidays he came home one evening tiith Iht tidings that he'd been turned dottm by four prospecli-ce employers be- cause of not yet having his Juniot ilatric. "I guess about the only Ihinj a guy can he nozvadays ter/AoWi knozk'ing anything," he moodily re- marked, "is either a ivriter or a Member of Parliament." * ♦ « At a race track recently we wcr< asked to explain something whicb sooner or later puzzles practically all newcomers to The Sport of Kinks. The question was, "Why are there no races at a distance of an eves mile?" For while you can find races carded at almost any distance be- tween four furlongs and a couple of miles, those just one mile in length are about as scarce as south- paw tonsorial artists. « « * The explanation is simple, and comes from the fact that most tracks on this side of the water are one mile around. In order to have a long straight run at the end, as well as to provide the most close-up thrills for the most people, the finish line is placed well past the halfw.ay mark of the home stretch. So in a race at one mile, before the horses got straightened out after the break they would be into the first turn, with plenty of spills and pilc-ups ensuing. To avoid this, extra yardage is add- ed, so that we have races at such odd distances as 1 mile 5 yards. 1 mile 70 yards and so forth. Of course you. gentle reader, knew all this years and years ago ; but there's always a new crop of patrons com- ing up, some of whom may have wondered. « * * Banks and bankers, of course, do their best to encourage the sober, moral and virtuous life. Still, we knoiv a man tvho, in a strange cily, zvanted to cash a check for a fairly large amount. .Asked to identify himself he produced, among other papers, a card bearing his name as a member of a zi'cll kni>z<n Bible Class. The bank manager still hesi- tating he then pulled out his Liguour Permit â€" and got the money without further ado. * » * -And with negro players being sign- ures consisted of a mild slap on the j ed up so frequently these days Victory Smile â€" Here's South Africa's l'>obby Locke :r.ul tlie Seagram Gold Cup, enibletnatic of Canadian golfing supremacy, after Locke had establi.shed a record of 268 for 72 holes in the Canadian Open Coif Championships at Toronto Scarboro.
