Probably nowhere in joyir betten for •age per ally sneaking, however, "there is. a fly dm the ointment." in fact, too many flies--blackflies and mosquitoes." These "winged domons of the forest," as one of the early Jesuit Fathers referred to them, occur In great numbers, especially in spring and early summer, in many otherwise attractive locations. Fortunately there are certain sdmrple precautionary measures that jnay be taken, which will do much to mitigate the discomfort and annoyance caused by these insects. These measures are discussed in a pamphlet, prepared by direction of the Dominion Entomologist, entitled "Methods of Protection from Mosqu'-itoes, Black-flies and SimiJ'ar Pests in the Forest." and available om application to the Publicity and Extension Branch. Department of Agriculture. Ottawa. Proper camping sites should be chosen away from marshes swamps and stagnant pools, preferably where there aire no dense woods or underbrush which would sarve as a shelter for the insects and break .the wind. Fly-proof tents should be used', and one of the popular brands of pyr«thum fly spray and a suitable atomizer should be kept on hand to destroy insects that may find their way into the tents cf other quarters. It is also advisable to include' a fine-mesh bobbinet head-met in the list of equipment, and old kid gloves, if these are aJvallUbde. Suitable clothes should be worn, bearing in mind that mosquitoes will bite through one thickness of ordinary clothing. Various protective mixtures are of great value in ward'ng off attack, when applied to exposed parts of the skin.

They will ride over high passes and down into deep valleys in the shadow of 10,000-foot peaks; they will find time for fishing, or ca- mera studies of the beautiful scenery or the big game which is found in such large numbers; they will enjoy campfire singsongs and a bang-up Pow-wow at the end of the trip. These outings have become so popular that many Americans plan their holidays at Banff Springs Hotel, Chateau Lake Louise, or any of the several attractive bungalow camps every year to coincide with the official Trail Hike or Trail Ride. It is a trip which will attract the novice rider as well as the experienced horseman, for the horses used are mild, sure of foot, and easy to handle. Experienced guides, cowboys, and cooks will be along to smooth the trip, while arrangements are well under way even now for the Trail Riders to find a comfortable camp and a warm meal waiting at the end of each day's ride. Two nights will be spent at one of the camps -- the one nearest to the best fishing and most spectacular scenery. Interest in this year's outing is keen, according to J. Murray Gibbon, Windsor Station, Montreal, the secretary-treasurer, who said that he expects there will be many new members in the party leaving the Banff Springs Hotel for the start of-the ride on July 29. Photographs show scenes from the rides of former years and clearly indicate the joys of the mountain trails. «»
