Gypsy Moth Spreading to Other Areas The gypsy moth continues to spread to new areas of eastern Ontario. They arc now found throughout the eastern part of the Lindsay district. The defoliation surveys by the Canadian Forestry Service revealed that the area of moderate to severe defoliation of gypsy moth has increased significantly significantly in Northumberland Northumberland County, especially in the area south and east of Rice Lake.

The ever-hungry caterpillars, which appear in late April and May, are hairy and grow to about six centimetres in length.

POOR SHOWING -- Attendance at the public meetings held for the purpose of discussing future future directions of the town's library system has not been encouraging. There were three such meetings held over the past week. And in one case only five or six persons showed up. It can't be that there's a lack of interest in the libraries, since about 10,000 people in the municipality hold library cards. Maybe the light response indicates folks are generally happy with library service. If public input was sparse, it wasn't for lack of trying. It now appears as though the ultimate ultimate decision will be up to the library board members themselves. There should be few complaints, complaints, whatever the outcome, since there were so few members of the public interested enough to attend the meetings. But don't count on it. Human nature can be very strange. The Ministry of Natural Resources will protect certain certain portions of Crown land against gypsy moth infestation infestation with aerial spraying of a biological insecticide, a bacteria that is lethal to only the caterpillars which eat it. Three types of Crown land have been selected as target areas for aerial spraying. "Hot spots" will be sprayed to reduce local infestations infestations and prevent spread from these small areas of new infestation to nearby valuable forests. High value forest spraying spraying will protect foliage and keep the trees green and growing in high value Crown forest areas. "Good neighbor" spraying spraying will protect areas where Crown land abuts private land. The Good Neighbor program provides that the Ministry of Natural Re- souces will treat a 120- metre buffer zone of Crown land adjacent to private property, if the landowner sprays his own property. Under the Co-operative Gypsy Moth Spray Program, financial and logistical assistance assistance is available to eligible eligible private landowners. Contact you local county office office for details. Spraying of private land may be done either by contract contract between a landowner and a commercial applicator, or as part of the Counties!

The meeting was held in hopes that area residents would provide input into the ongoing study that is looking at how the library system can best serve the town. While no one could really explain the poor turn-out, one resident, Jane Rowe, claimed that sports was the real hook in Courtice. "In Courtice you get the best turn-out when it is a sports-minded event," said Mrs. Rowe. "Sports is about the only thing where there is a sense of community," she added. The meeting was publicized publicized in all area newspapers. newspapers. Along with sports, Mrs. Rowe said that taxes would also get a better turn out. "If you talk taxes to the people in Courtice you'll get response," she said. "We want the town to show that they're doing something with taxes," she added. Presently, a library for Courtice is on a list of future services for the area. Library Board Chairman Jenny Walhoul thinks that a library could provide a much needed "gelling factor" factor" for Courtice. While lookingalthc a new facility is not the prime goal of the needs study, it may be considered some time in the future. Past library board chairman chairman Bill Lover thinks that it is the threat of no services that makes people act. "Library users will not react until they lose their services," he said, Pressroom 4?
