The Express gladly make this known in justice to Mr. Cowie, who has never been accused or breaking the law, and whose name might'be wrongly connected with the The transformation of productive forests by fire into idle wastes im-iiovishes the nation, damages the individual, is wholly needless, and The Chief of the Foreign Pests Suppression Division has sent out letters to canning factories and farmers urging the use of silos as a means of suppressing the European Corn Borer, which appears quite abundant and has done serious damage to corn in the vicinity of St. Thomas particularly. Following are extracts fiom the letter. "The European Corn Borer winters over in the stalk, cob or stubble, and it is apparently not injured to any extent by extremes of temperature.

The practise of allowing old stalks and cobs to remain on the ground to be ploughed under in the spring, should not be followed in attempting to control the European Corn Borer experiments have shown that they will emerge from such material when it has been buried to depth of 16 inches."

The European Corn Borer is now spread over such a large area that hope for its eradication cannot be entertained. : necessary, therefore to exercise y effort to keep it under control in the districts it now infests and to to prevent its spreading into new DEATH OF THOMAS COFFEE The death occurred on Friday, March 25th, 1921, of Mr. Thomas Coffee, a lifelong, respected resident of the district.
