 ORONO WEEKLY TIMES Vol. 26. No. 2. ORONO. ONT., THURSDAY, JULY 21, 1938. Subscription, $1.25 Per Y ear Orono Weekly Times Enters Into The Six Column Class Will Open Summer Camp If Suitable Place Can Be Located Near Village Want Between 3 to 5 Acres Close to Stream For Bathing Purposes Orono Chamber of Commerce and the Central 'Orange Celebration Com- mittee met on Friday evening to close the business of the 12th cele- bration and. also to attend to any new business that might be on hand con- cerning the Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Fred Lomman read a letter from Mr. E. A. Gilbert, of Toronto, with reference to a suitable site being purchased or leased to erect a sum- mer camp for married families to spend a couple of weeks each year throughout the summer months. While in'Orono they were shown around by Fred Lorriman and they came to the conclusion that Orono district meets every requirement pro- viding they are able to secure ,a small acreage of laud cheaply, either with a house- on. the premises or without and close to a shopping centre. The Chamber of Commerce are behind this movement and will help to secure a suitable place so that a small - camp site may be started near the town for -these families that need an outing. Mr. Gilbert is a member of the Or- der of ‘Crusaders, St. Alban’s Con- clave, Toronto. The Order was found- ed in 1H21, and seeks to perpetuate the spirit of Brotherhood among all classes of men, Its aims are service in its highest and widest sense; self- sacrifice as the essence of such ser- vice; loyalty To one’s fellows and to one’s king and country; Brotherhood as the very foundation on which rest* the structure of civilized ei.nmiun- ities. The.Order recognizes no class-dis- tinctions. Rich and poor, great and humble, -are equal and have the same . opportunities of attaining the high- est honours which the Order can be- stow. The St, Alban’s-'Conclave is the on- ly Conclave functioning actively in Toronto at the- present time, and thev have undertaken in the last few years to provide ' a summer holiday for widows with children who would otherwise be unable to get out of the city. â-  This phase of their service work has grown out of the original plan to provide Christmas hampers to needy families. The ’Orange Central ’Committee then went over the accounts and it was-found that the Order would not be in the red, in fact, would be a few dollars to the good and it was decid- ed to turn this over to the ’Ghristmias- Fumd, -the 'Orange Order not running A HARD THING TO FIND The following is, a clipping from The Review, Okoioks, Alberta, with reference to two former Orono boys now in that part of the country : “Frank Campbell and Tack Rowe are a couple of disappointed men. At least they -say so. They claim to have been looking for work on a farm since the season opened up (and of course we have to believe them) and- in spite of the .most strenuous efforts have been unable to secure any. Of course their requirements are a little difficult to satisfy. Frank will only work in the morning and Jack in the afternoon and they won’t work at all unless they can work together. So far no farmer has been able to figure out what to do with them, though some of them have got headaches trying ‘•Beautiful” Baker says they’re not men, they’re mosquitos and he has enough of those on, his farm.

(By l Seymour Wyns) Port Hope Ontarios chased their Newcastle jinks last night when they smothered the cellar occupants under a 13 to 4 count. The visitors hit Brunt hard and often, taking an eight run lead in the first heat, twelve men going to bat before the sick was retired. Eight hits were crowded into the opening session, in'dluding seven singles and a triple, 'an error was responsible for one of the counters. George Walton, scored in the first frame for Newcastle on a hit to cen- tre plus two errors. After the tragic first innings- when Brunt had plenty of nothing the big hurler settled, down, allowing the Hopers seven safe- ties which were good for five more faillies. One of these came in the 4th, two in thé sixth and an addition- al two in the 7 th. The Walton men had a three run splurge in the 3rd ebukker, Gray, Graham and Brunt scoring on two hits,' 'two errors and an infield out. Leading the swat-smith parade for the Ontarios wore Wakcly, Rowioliffe, Hudson and Porter, each having three solid smashes besides obtaining three hits.

GLOVERâ€" DARLINGTON The marriage of Helen Darlington, second daughter of Mrs. Agnes Dar- lington, of Ken:lale, and the late Wil- liam Darlington, to John Glover, son of Mir. and Mrs. Stanley Glover, of Newton,ville, was quietly solemnized at the United -Church, Kendal, on Saturday, July 16th. The ceremony was conducted by the Rev. E. Beech, with only the immediate relatives be- ing present. The bride was indeed charming in palest pink georgette with white ac- cessories and carried a beautiful bou- quet of pink roses and fern. The bridesmaid was her sister, Miss Geor- gina Darlington, wearing a most be- coming gown of pale blue georgette. The groom was attended by William Darlington, with Mr. Neil Stewart playing 'the wedding music. The happy couple later left on a motor trip to Ottawa and the eastern points, and on their return will re- side in Newcastle. the celebration as a money making scheme. The receipts of the day amounted to $189.77, made from the booths, dance and concert. Cutworms Attack Barley, Oats and Corn Fields Hearty Vote Of Thanks From Central Committee The, 12th of July celebration held in Orono this year -can rightly be termed a huge success financially as well as establishing our reputation as capable and -efficient entertainers. The streets of our hiilage-never were as well a-nd n îcély decorated as for this occasion. The -citizens generally ac- cepted -"the eha'ilri-nge and did them- selves proud in decorating their homes. The large cedar arches across the streets, while taking a lot of time and labour to erect, were well worth the efforts judging from the many com- plimentary remarks uttered: by the visitors. The parade was of an ex- ceptionally. fine order, and: the Direc- tor of Ceremonies-,, Major J. G. Gaimey, is to be congratulated on-; the fine military formation in the park before dismissal. % The amplifying system was great and could be heard all over the vil- lage. ft is doubtful if any finer or more talented and forceful speakers ever addressed any gathering with greater sincerity or under suieh ideal â- -.renditions. Our park is one of the During the last week there has -been a widespread outbreak of the army worm in moat counties of the province, but more severe n some than in others. This insect is like an ordinary cutworm. The colour is green to brown or nearly black, with longitudinal: stripes along the back and: sides. When full-grown it- is nearly jtwo inches long. Most of the damage ha-s been done to grasses, bar- ley, oats and corn. Alfalfa, sweet clover, red clover, peas, beans-, pota- toes; tomatoes and most other crops have not been attacked. When barley or oats are attacked the damage, is caused by the leaves arid heads being eaten off. ' The worm usually tfonji-es from grass their favorite breeding this they often move : hers to nearby corn o many - cases, however, place. From n large num- -grairii.

The sports programme was free and ball: games were keenly contested. The races for boys and girls were very entertaining, so much so for the committee in charge, namely Messrs. John Armstrong, Thomas Cowan and Chas. Miller, that they each chipped in 50c. apiece and had a free-for-all. John; says he had the greatest time of his life over these races. The dance and concert at night were well attended. lit, was a great day and was enjoy- ed by all, and the citizens of Orono have by their efforts ' established a reputation of doing things in a big way, according to reports coming from our visitors from distant points. If we ever hold another celebration the question will be where will we put them. The Central Com mi ti re takes this opportunity of extending their sin- cere appreciation, of the loyalty and co-operation of all who so generously gave of their time and talents, or in any way contributed to the success of the day. have bred in the grain itself, the eggs being'laid on the l-eavés. Hence grain may be attacked without any inva- sion "frmn .the surroundings. Every farmer should' at once Walk through His barley, oats and corn in the even- ing to see if it-is being injured by this pest, and should do this daily un- til: -all danger is- past. The poison bait in most cases is very effective, but sometimes must he supplemenjted by a trench or' furrow. Bran, 26 lbs.; paris green, 1 lb.; cheap molasses, 1-2 gallon; water enough to moisten the bait without making it, Sloppy, about’ 2' 1-2 gallons. Mix the bran and paris green dry,' thoroughly, until the green . can be seen everywhere, through the brim. This can he dbne mo-sit easily on a concrete or tight board floor by shov- elling lit over just, as in mo-xing con- crete! Do not ,.im,ix with the hands and do not iyjflè the paris green dust. Next level' the surface of the pile, add the water'arid molasses thor- oughly mixed and shovel again until the mixture is well moistened, but will faff , through the fingers like damp sawdust. This poison bait should be applied after 6 p.m. anil should be scattered by hand. In -corn broadcast it over the ground just as on-e would broadcast grain. The above amount should be sufficient to cover one, and a half acres, but only 1 acre in a very heavy infestation. B-anley and oats may be treated in the, same way, but" if the grain is very thick or fallen the bait must, be thrown forcibly into the crop to reach the ground, and in such cases even. 30 lbs. -per acre, or more, may be needed. The lodged parts will usually require most'bait. Do not treat any grain field unless noticeable damage is really being done. To prevent the worms moving from from an infected field to an iminfesl- ed, scattering the bait for a few yards ahead df them may -be sufficient, but if they are very numerous this will have to be supplemented by making a trench or deep furrow. In sandy lahd this can usually be done, with a plough, leaving the straight side of the clean cut, furrow towards the crop to be protected. Two. furrows about a large apart are better than a single one. In clay land the furrow must, be deepened to a trench 12 inch- es or more in depth, with the straight waff towards the threatened crop out clean or better even cut under. In both: cia-ses poisoned bait should be thrown into the furrow or -trench. Post holes at interval's may have to be dug in either the furrow or trench. -In Durham County, in badly infes- ted fields, the poison bran has given at least a 90- pep cent. kill.
