E. Webb of the Forest Biology Laboratory, Fredericton, N.B. Dr. Webb said that spraying began in New Brunswick in 1952 and in adjacent parts of Quebec in 1954. An area of 9.3 million acres was treated, most of it twice. Dr. Webb estimated that tree-killing outbreak has been put off for four or five years at least and that stands of fir and spruce ‘extending over 15,000 square miles were saved. He recommended spraying every other year to keep sus- ceptible forests alive indefinit- ely. Describing the spraying, Dr. Webb said it was used only in areas where the trees would die if treatment was delayed. SPRAYING TIMING Timing of the spraying was a compromise between an early operation to saye as much as possible of the current year’s foliage; and a late operation to achieve the maximum kill of larvae. Spraying elsewhere has generally started earlier in the bud-worm outbreak using twice the dosage of DDT and com- mencing late in the feeding per- iod of the insect with the main objective of the maximum kill. Dr. Webb said the forests had been preserved and the attack destroyed, proving that starva- tion and the death of the trees were not necessary to defeat a full-scale budworm outbreak. The success of the spray timing also showed that the outbreak had not been prolonged by pre- serving the food supply for the than 47,000 tons. larvae. SELLING TO BEAT THE BAND... au across Canada!

The latter figure com- pares with $917 millions out ‘of total of $2,575 millions in 1957, and $905 millions out of of $2,642 millions in 1956. Out of the total of $949 mil- lions from livestock sales in 1958, $613 millions were from cattle and calves, $325 millions from hoks and nearly $11 mil- lions from sheep and lambs. Compared to 1957, revenue from cattle sales increased by $131 millions and hogs by $33 millions. Cash income from poultry sales was $133 millions in 1957 and $143 millions in 1958. In the province of Ontario, out of a total cash income from farm product sales of $863 mil- lions; 391 millions came from livestock and poultry sales, with dairy products contributing a further $171 millions and eggs 370% millions. Alberta, out“of a total cash income of $481% millions, derived $243 millions from livestock and_ poultry, Quebec was third high in live- stock poultry sales at $159 mil- lions, $149 millions (compared to $272 millions from wheat) and Manitoba farmers realibed $81 millions from livestock and Poultry sales. In the Maritimes and British Columbia, while livestock and poultry sales reached. a-smaler~dollar vol- ume, they still contributed a very important part of farm cash income. Tire Trouble?
