here and in province during the past week wc have had further opportunity to see iriore of the damage caused by the hes sian fly in general the wheat fields in halton arc a sorry sight undoubtedly in sofnc sections of the county considerable damage has been done by wind rain nnd hail ious frosts in 1950 we cant help but wonder if he hasnt hit the bulls eye corn growers will no doubt recall that the 1950 corn crop remained untouched by frost last fall a great deal later than usual this may be the reason why so many of our fields sownas late as the lastwuwek in september or first week in october are as badly hit as some of the early september sown fields if this is the answer then there should be no hesitation on the part of wheat growers in planting their normal acreage in 1951 no doubt some statement will be forth- 1 r gospel service every sunday oddfellows hall 700 pjn for the wages of sin is death but the gift of god is eternal life rom 623 kcw e r peterson in charge however in the majority of the fields the worst culprit is the hes sian fly that halton is not the only county where the damage is ser ious is indicated by a recent con versation with a t woodley hal ton representative on the toronto milk producers association mr woodley stated that at a recent meeting of the toronto board which was attended by some fifteen dir ectors from as many different coun ties all reported considerable dam age in their respective counties while our entomologists have not as yet made any pronouncement as to the why and wherefore of this outbreak we still are of the opin ion that weather conditions have been favourable to this mosqujto- like fly it was suggested to us by one of our veteran farmers on thursday last that this sudden out break of the hessian fly is due to the long open fall without any coming irom our research people in the course of the next few weeks since writing the above we have had a chat with chas a galbraith of hornby the pastor as he is known to his many friends not only around hornby but throughout the province has an enviable reputa tion as a source of information in a multiplicity of subjects mr gal braith points outs that in south western ontario as many as three broods of hessian fly hatch in a single season whereas farther north there arc only two broods and still farther north only a single brood in the season we would judge after our chat with wr galbraith that he does not take much stock in the suggestion that this years infesta tion is due to lack of frost in the early fall he points out that it is a gradual build up of the pest over a period of years we would also judgethat he feels the only sale procedure to follow this fall is to sow an early trap crop of wheal which should be ploughed down af ter the bulk of the eggs have been laid on them thus protecting the main crop planted later certainly this is in accord with earlier litera ture on the subject which we have available apparently in those days there was some evidence which in dicated that certain varieties were more subject to hessian than others as a matter of fact we thought w saw a difference in infestation be tween our two main varieties in this county but it would require i nun tlnsri i mi i muh tii7 ger number of fields and over i per iod it years before one would be justified in making a statement on this point report on newcastle
