Tradition has it that man‘s introduction to the effectiveâ€" when a Dalmatian peasant noticed a number of dead flies lying about a variety of daisy growing in his garden. Because pyrethrum is harmless to humans and at the same time contains one of the most potent insectâ€"killing compounds known to science, there has been a continual search for synthetic materials which would ensure a continuous supply and yet combine its effectiveness with safety. After years of painstaking reâ€" search, chemists have found the answer in a combination of subâ€" stances derived from an alcohol THOUSANDS of gallons of inâ€" secticides are used each year during the warm weather months by Canadian housewives for killing flies, summer bane of the home. In view of the importance of this phase of housckeeping to health and comfort, chemical research has recently perfected a new synâ€" thetic base for flysprays, which is nonâ€"toxic to human beings and nonâ€"staining to fabrics and wallâ€" and vegetable oils.

R. McHaffic. Both chemists and health authoâ€" rities strongly recommend the leâ€" thal chamber method of killing flies and mosquitoes as carried out in the laboratoryâ€"in place of the oldâ€"fashioned method of swatting to rid the domestic quarters of these summer pests. The danger of swatting, they claim, lies in the fact that germs remain on the mangled body of the fly. The most efficient method of dealing with domestic insects is to close all windows and doors, fill the room with an evenly distributed mist from the spraygun and after about ten minutes the housewife will be able to sweep up the dead ;. cremaâ€" tion in the kitchen stove or jacket heater, or burial in a shroud of newspaper in the garbage can, should follow. Replacing the assassinâ€"flower of Central Europe may be counted as another contribution in the chain of selfâ€"sufficiency being made posâ€" sible by chemical research. Armed with a good spraygun filled with any recognized brand of insect spray, the housewife can carry on a chemical warfare which is safe, effective and easy to use against the army of domestic enemies which invade her home in summer. liquids in combination with pyreâ€" thrum, it increases the killing power of the spray and substantiâ€" ally reduces the amount of pyreâ€" als," Mr MacLeod advises. The use of chemicals has proven an effective and economical method of eradicating. this weed from | roadâ€"! sides and areas where cultivationâ€"is impossible. â€" ‘Write the Crops, Seeds and Woods Branch for circular No.‘!
