An official of a chemical organiâ€" zation saw the egg, and was struck with the beauty of the blue. He realized it would make an excel- leht shade for women’s clothes. In a week a chemist had produced a dye of exactly the same color as the egg, and it was decided to call the shade “mavis” the old name for the thrush. When a little boy found 9. tlu‘ush’s egg in the Old Country last. summer. he never thought it would lead to women wearing dresses ufan'ew delicate fairy blue.

MAVIS BLUE The different kinds of laceâ€" wing flies are. good friends of the gardener: their larvae feed partic- Many of the four-winged and two-winged parasitic flies deposit their eggs upon or in the bodies of cutworms and other injurious caterpillars. These eggs soon hatch, and the young larvae there- fore at once begin to feed upon the living caterpillars which, of course, soon die. Other well-known beneficial in- sects belong to the parasite hymen- nptera (four-winged flies), and to the diptera (two-winged flies). Among the latter are. the maggots or the syrphid flies which feed on plant life. “Another kind of beetle, the fiery ground beetle, is a particularly useful insect. This beetle. and its voracious black grub, which is called the cutworm lion. destroys enormous numbers of cutworms.” The bulletin contains a cut of this beetle. which is described as brownish black with wing cases spotted with coppery red. “The large harpalus also destroys eut- worms.” _, It is wOrthy of note that im- mediately following the introduc- ‘tion to the bulletin, attention is‘ called to the fact that all insects which occur in gardens are not injurious. “There are beneficial ones as well.” it is pointed out, which continually do good by des- troying those species which are harmful. These beneficial kinds should be known to the gardener. Foremost amongst them are the different kinds of ladybird beetles. which. both in their larval and adult stages feed almost exclusive~i ly upon plant lice and scale in- sects. - Growers either amateurs or pro- fessional, seeking information with regard to injury to flowers caused by insect pests, ‘will find much use- ful information in a bulletin reâ€" cently issued by the Federal De- partment. of Agriculture, under the title “Insects of the Flower Garden and their Control”, which has as its author Arthur Gibson, Dominion Entomologist. “The more the gardener knows about the in- sects which may attack his crops the better prepared will he be to cope with them when injury is detected,” says the, author.

Further, he said, Canada stands higher in world estimation today than ever before. His message to the vis- iting Quebeckers was that Ontario and Quebec must cooperate to the economic. benefit of Canada as a whole.

A survey/ of the province to de- termine the number of pernicious anaemia cases, will be taken by the Ontario Department of Health this 'fall. if possible, or at. latest next summer, with a View to free dis- tribution of extract of liver to those patients unable to pay. At. present. prices it is rather an ex- ‘pensn‘a treatment. It is now sup- plied at $6.00 for a six-ounce bottle. which the. minister considers rather high for the patient of modern means, especially as treat- ment calls for one or more ounces of the fluid each day. Dr. Godfrey is therefore aiming at. free distri- bution and says: “We distributed all kinds of vaccine and serum last. year. It has always been my policy that no one shall die in this proâ€" vince just. for lack of the price. to pay for a cure. We may have to go slowly for a while in this matter of distributing liver extract. but eventually we will put it. over. First, we must. see where we are. at. and find out the. number of patients. Then the demand for the extract. hasboosted the price, and it appears that some purveyors want an abnormal increase.“ It will pay you to advertise in The Chronicle.
