A work party was held at thse hall by several of the men and several ladies, when painting and repairs to the outside were done. It is due to the dedication of Bros. Wayne and Richard Lowery and their family and to Bro. Dave Thrower, that the Hall 'is kept in repalr. I'm sure I speak for aIl thse members of the Orange family, when I say Thank you, for alI your Isard work and. for giving so much of your time. On Sunday the Members of Ken- dal Hilîs L.O.L., the Brooks Memorial J.O.A., the Kendal -Hills L.O.B.A., and visitors from other Lodges, assembled behind the Ken- dal Fife and Drum Band for their annual Church Parade. The parade left the hall and marched to Mill St., then the length of Mill St. to the- Newtonville Road and then back to tIse Church. Following the Service, all were in- vited to the Hall for lunch and a time of fellowship, which, was as usual enjoyed by aI. It was good to sec Bro. Laverne Patterson out and walking in the parade, and one who can always be counted on to come out and take part with the band is Clarence Allin, County Master of the County of Victoria, Kendal is where Ise first joined.tIse Lodge and he still Isolds dual membership here. He informs us that there will be a Service at Woodville on Sunday, JuIy 8th. Kendal Band will be there and as many of the local Members as possible.

The Ladies of KendaI Huis will be serving lunch prier to thse parade. After the parade there will be events being held in tIse Arena. Come on out and join us. Bring the family, ail welcome! 1 .by P. Lowery Durham East Agricultural News Tent CaterpMfars by Andrea Clarke Pest Management Specialist The Eastern Tent Caterpillar oc- curs from the Maritimes to Sault Ste. Marie, in the south east corner of Manitoba, and throughout the casterfi U.S.A. TIse rost common hosts are apple and wild cherry. Adult moths are chocolate brown in colour, with a pair of oblique white lines on the forewings. The average wingspan is 3.5 cm. In late June or early July, females lay up to 350 eggs in a compact mass, which resembles grey foam, in a band around tIse twigs or bran- ches of the tree. The larme emerge from the egg cluster in tIse spring of the following year, just as the leaves are un- folding. The young caterpillars spin a silken tent in a fork of nearby branches. They enlarge this tent as they grow. During cloudy or rainy weather, and at night, caterpillars remain within the tent. On sunny days the larvac feed on the leaves of the host tree. Larvae of the Eastern Tent Cater- pillar arc dark in colour with a single white stripe downthe back. They c an easily bc distinguished from the Forest Tenit Caterpillar, which has a row of keyhole-shaped spots down the back. Both species of caterpilars are 5 cm. long when fully grown. Caterpillars mature in 6 weeks tîme. In June, they wander away from the tree and pupate in brush or debris on the ground, on fences, or on buildings. Moths emerge in 2 weeks, and lay eggs shortly after emnerging. There is on- ly one generation eacb vear. Forest Tent Caterpillar- The Forest Tent Caterpillar is closcly related to the Eastern Tent Cater- pillar. Their life cycles are v ery similar. The Forest Tent Caterpillar is the most widely distribut cd species of moth in North America. It feeds on broad leaf trees. In northern Canada, it prefers Trembling Aspen. In southern Canada it prefers Oak whilc in the southern U. S. it feeds on gum trees. Sugar Maple is often severely defoliated, although Red Maples are untouched. Periodic infestations have been noted since 1835, and outbreaks have been reported from somewhere in Canada every year since the Forest Insect Survey was established in 1936. As with the Eastern Tent Cater- pillar, the Forest Tent Caterpillar overwinters within the egg cluster surrounding twigs or branches. The larvae emerge just as the leaves are unfolding. Caterpillars feed together on a branch, and move to another only when the branch is defoliated. Unlike Eastern Tent Caterpîllars, Forest Tent Cater- pillars do flot form true tents, only silken mats on branches or trunks. If the entire tree is defoliated thcy will mîgrate to other trees. Large stands of susceptible forest trees may be denuded by early summer. Usually these trees will produce another crop of leaves 4 to 6 weeks later. Trees are rarely killed, and large outbreaks of this pest are most often followed by years of rclatively low populations. Feeding is com- plete in mid to late June. Larvae leave the tree, spin cocoons, and emerge as moths 2 weeks later. Moths are pale brown in colour' with 2 dark diagonal stripes on the forewings. They are the same size as Eastern Tent Caterpillar moths. Females lay eggs inI clusters on twigs or branches. There is only one generation each year. Control of Tent Caterpillars - Tent caterpillar populations fluctuate a great deal from year to year, primarily because of control of natural enemies. These include birds, prcdatory and parasitic' in- sects, and disease organisms. Un- favourable weather also limits the populations of tent caterpillars.* Homeowners can control both of these species by removing egg clusters from ornamiental trees and shrubs in thre wintcr.' On cloudy days, tents of the Eastern Cater- pillar with the caterpillars in them can be remnoved with a stick, and destroyed: Although trees may be compîcte- ly defoliated by these caterpillars, the damage is usually more ap- parent than real. The use of chemi cal pesticides (although many products are registered) is rarely justified to control these pests. Bacterial insecticides which contaîn Bacillus thuringiensis, however, are available, which can be used as a biological control of young larvae. This insecticide is specific to cater- pillars and will not harm beneficial insects and bees. Bacillus thur- ingiengis formulations should be applied early in the spring when the larvae are small, because it must be ingested to be effective. At this time of year (June), spray- ing insecticides for the control of these pests is not recommended because most of the damage has been done, -and thelarvae will soon leave the trees to pupate. The presence of the caterpillars around the house is only a temporary nuisance, as they will soon pupate and then change to moths.
