DURHAM. H. H. MILLER o 1 Last week much alarm was created in the neighborhood of Leamington, Ont., by an extraordinary outbreak of caterpillars which devoured every- thing before them Application was made to the Agricultural College at Guelph for advice and assistance, and Mr.‘ L. Caesar of the Entomolog- ical Department was at once sent up to investigate. The insect proved to be the Variegated Cutworm (Per- idroma saucia.) which has on previous occasions appeared in devastating numbers, the most serious outbreak occurred in British Columbia and the neighboring Pacific coast states in 1930. Near Leamington the worms were first observed in clover fields where they soon devoured the crap and left the ground bare and black; they then marched on to the next field and consumed whatever vegeta- tion they met with, corn and tobacco, tomatoes and other vegetables seem- ed especial favourites ior consump- tion. If a fruit tree happened to be in their way, they climbed it and de- voured both fruit and foliage; many peach trees were thus attacked and the fruit ruined. Like the cutworms these caterpil- lars feed only at night and remain in concealment during the day. hiding in the grounu where the soil is loose and under any rubbish or other shel- ter that they can find. When full grown the worm is about two inches long. with a yellowish stripe on each side above the legs, the rest of the body is darker and m0ttled with black, white or gray; the most char- acteristic feature is a row of yellow or white spots. five to seven in num- ber. along the middle line of the back. Some are already changing in- to the chrysalis stage, for which pur- pose they bury themselves in the ground and form there an oval earthen cell. The moth, into which they finally turn, has a wing expan- sion of about an inch, and is dark blackish brown in color. often clouded with red towards the front margin of the wings. but with no con3pic- uous or distinguishing markings; the underwings are white with a pearly lustre. Like so many other of our most destructive insects, this one has come to us from Europe. The most effeCtive remedy for these nocturnal marauders is the poisoned bran mash, which is made by mixing half a pound of Paris Green in fifty pounds of bran (the proportion for larger or smaller quan- tities is 1-10C.) the poison should be added to the dry bran little by little, and stirred all the time till the whole is tinged with green colour, then add water sweetened with sugar or mol- asses till the mixture is sufficrently moistened to crumble nicely through the fingers. If bran cannot be pro.. cured, shorts or flour may be used. and for field work may be diatribut ed dry by means of a seed drill. The mash is Spinkled about the plants at sun down. and after dark the worms come out and eat it in preference to the vegetation and then go OE and die. usually in their places of con vealmeni Paris Green, half a pound to forty gallons of water may be used on mauv plants with much advantage. When the worms are very numer- ou: and are moving on from one field to another, their progress may be checked bv ploughing a deep furrow ahead of them-two about four feet apart would be better. in these post holes are bored or dug: from twelve no fifteen feet apart. The furrows should be mum» in the morning, so that the sides may be (its and friable by night fall. The worms fall into Many specimens have been sent to the College for identification from various parts of the Province, the complaint beingin most cases that the worms are destroying the green tomatoes by boreing great holes through and through them : in some cases corn is badly injured.

OP A few days ago a young lady in a local grocery store discovered a big Spider in a bunch of bananas. For- tunately its discovery was the only feature in the incidentâ€"and before it had time to do any harm it was kill- ed. It was undoubtly a good speci- men of a tarantula. On Saturday. at St. Catharines a young Syrian lad who worked in an Italian fruit store was bitten by a tarantula and lies in ,an unconscious state at his home withanumber of doctors Working over him. The boy was helping to unload bananas when the deadly creature which had made the trip from the south hidden in a bunch ot bananas darted out and fastened itself on his bare arm. The fact is however that by the time the banana bunches reach this far north the venemous spider is chilled by cold storage until he has little life left in him, He should be handled with care neverthelessâ€"Owen Sound Times.

About midnight and after Mr. Aaron Wenger and family had retired, the dog set up a persist- ent bark. Mrs. Wenger arose and went to see‘ what was the cause of the disturbance, and found a lady about half way up a ladder she had set up against the roof of the house. Mrs. Wenger asked the nocturnal visitor what she wanted, but gor no reply. She then gave the alarm, but when she returned there was nobody to be seen. Some of the neighbors were notified, and made search but no trace of the mysterious person could be found. Plunder seems to be the only reason for the strange and untimely visit.â€"Ayton Advance. b â€". est xt’s “Putnam’s.” Never has death entered our midst more unexpectedly than -on Monday morning. On that morning. with but little notice, while the nearest neighbors were unaware of any seri-,3 ous illness. that certain old warrior‘ entered the home of Mr. and Mrs. 'Wm. Umbach and added the life of their son Walter to his many victor- ies. Friday morning he went to work in the mill as usual, but not feeling well he returned home and remained about town all day. On Saturday afternoon he consulted Dr. EaSton and received treatment for a pain in the back. On Sunday he re- mained in bed most of the day. An early call from his physician on Mon- day showed fatal developments dur- ing the night. Creeping paralysis had started in the lower limbs and was working rapidly towards the body. The medical profession knows how useless it is to try to arrest the pregress of this fatal disease, so phy- sicians and parents looked on power- less while a useful young life was being sapped out. inch by inch. At last the vital organs were reached and the earthly career of Walter Umbach was in. Deceased was not yet 20 years. of age. was an active. strong, industrious and hard-working young man, as had often been attest- ed to by his foreman, Mr. G. Globe. He was mild. kind and inofiensive inl his every-day life. He was respect- ful to older people and a favorite among those of his own ageâ€"he was courteous to all. His sad and sudden taking away is lamented by the whole village and country about, and to his aflicted parents and only sister the deepest sympathy is being extended. The funeral, conducted by Rev. Mr. Wilson, of the Presbyterian congreo gation, was largely attended by all denominations. A beautiful floral ofiering froin the town was among the many that beautified the bier.â€" g Ayton Advance. A young man named Campbell took French leave of the town last Friday night, and Mr. Swinburn. who is en- gaged with the Portland Cement Co., was $20 poorer the same evening. There seems to be a connection be. tween the two events. Campbell is a tailor by trade and a good one, but like a lot of good workmen he has a passion for the flowing bowl and in- dulges not wisely but too well. He is a happy-go-lucky ne’er-do well, in which character generosity and good nature are mixed with the fool. But he has left us. While up at Chesley last week taking in the lacrosse game he lost his hat. and borrowed one from Mr. Swinburn. When return ing it to his room at the Reid House it is alleged he rifled the cement man’s pockets, and anyhow he was particularly flush that evening around one of the local hotels. He got atarmer to drive him to Allan Park on Friday night, and getting up early the next morning he walked to Durham where he caught the eleven o’clock train out. The police in var- ious centres were telephoned to but at time of writing this gay young Lothario has not turned up.â€"Han- over Post. A particularly sad drowning acci- dent occurred on Tuesday afternoon of last week at Shallow Lake. Little Richard Ward, age 6 years and 10 months, was bathing'in the lake 9. short distance from the cement works with his brother Archie, age 9 years old. The boys were stripped and were wading about the lake. Rich- ard got away from his brother and as the water was muddy could not see the bottom, and walked into a deep hole where the dredge had been Oper- ating. His cries drew the attention of his brother. who was powerless to go to his rescue, but promptly gave the alarm to men at the cement works, and in a few minutes dozens of men were on the Spot. Several quickly went into the water, but it was fully 14 minutes before the body was recovered. Dr. Dunlop made every efiort to resuscitate the body but to no avail. The boy is a son of Mrs. Richard Ward, Shallow Lake, and is also survived by two little brothersâ€"Aymn Advance. Free, for Catarrh just to prove merit. a Trial size Box of Dr. Shoop’s Catarrh Remedy.
