'Fly' Killed

ROSE LEAF HOPPERS are often
wrongly called "white fly" because
they are whitish and fly off
bushes in white clouds at tlie
slightest disturbance.
These, however, are sucking insects
so need a contact dust or
spray. It must touch the insect to
kill, which requires that it be done
at a tune when they are quiet.
Early morning or late afternoon,
when it is cool is a good lime, because
they are sluggish and settled
on the bushes.

Canadian Press Staff Writer
The proviDces, pursuing a fond
objectiv(?, last week came seeking
more money from Ottawa. In effect
they were told to come back
later.
The occasion was a conference
of government treasury officials,
called to line up a thorough-going
study of tiie whole federal-provincial
fiscal deal. TYiat did it.
It wasn't intended thait the meeting
become a springboard for provincial
money demands. Regardless,
that is the way the conference
began.
Crux of the matter is the taxsharing
formula in the current
federai-provindal agreement, that
expires March 31, 1962. It gives the
provinces 13 per cent of personal
income tax yields, nine per cent
of ba.vable corporation income, and
half the inheritance tax.
Ontario asked for a 15-15-50 formula,
and Prince Edward Island rallied
to this banner. British Columbia
went a sstep further, asking
a 25-12-.50 setup.

wiok made no specific proposals,
but said a new deal is "indent"
and "absolutely essential." In addition,
the Atlantac provinces
pressed for cortfiinuation beyond
1962 Oif their adjyatment grants,
(totalling $^,000,000 a year.
Above aU they wanted a plenary
federaliprovincial conference—one
in whidi the prime minister sits
dowTi with all the premiers.
NO PROMISES
Finance Miniver Fleming made
no promises. He told a press oonference
later thoJt there is "not
much use in calling a conference"
•urfless Otta\m has the money to
give. Mr. Fieming, who based this
year's predicted $393,000,000 defidt
on an expeoted upswing in the
gross national product, told reporters:
"I want to see how far recovery
wall go before deciding on whether
to call a plenary conference. The
provinces understand I don't want
to be in the position of propoang

for this year."

itax-sharing question, the provincial
ministers will meet here again
October 15 and 16 to discuss—as
(the official communique said—"the
possible need for a negotiating
conference" of governmenit heaOs
to revise benefiits available to the
provinces.
DEFENCE SHARING
Raymond O'Hurley, minister of
defence production, has minced no
words in Stating C&nada's position
in sharing defence orders with the
United States. He told the Commons:
"I would emphasize thait we are
determined that any Canadian
ix>le under production sliaring
should include some of the more
demanding work and not be hmited
to the pouring of concrete or
to what is often called 'mettal
bashing'."
He announced one example of
the demanding work: In a $400,-
000,000 program over the next four
years, Canadian plants will build
.some 200 American Locldieed
F-104G super.sonic fighter planes
for tlie RC.'\.F air division in Europe.
Opposition Leader Pearson said
*lie giw\'nng integration of Canadian
and U.S. defences is a far
cry from Conseivative talk a few
years ago alxiut "freeing our defence
policy from the ovenK>werang'control
of the U.S."
PAR NORTH POLICY
Resources Minister Alvin Hamilton
says Canadian sovereignty in
the far north will not be endangered
by foreign participation in tho
exploitation of oil and gas resources.
So long as companies searching
'for gas and oil are under offecttive
Canadian administration "that is
Ithe most tangible evidence to any
per.son in any part of the world
that this is Canada and that this
is tlie land we will fight for," Mr.
Hamilton said in the Commons.
He was replying to Opposition
Leader Pearson who accused
Prime Minister Diefenbaker and
Mr. Hamilton of trying to mislead
Oanadians about governmenit efforts
to preserve northern sovereignty.
VANIER FOR GOVERNOR
An announcement is expected
within the next month or so to the
effect thart: Maj.-Gen. George P.
Vanier of Montreal will be Canada's
next governbr-geneiial.
Indications aire that the Queen
who is reported to have approved
of tMs ohoice by Prime Minisiter
Diefenbaker, may be asked to announce
the appoinltmenit before her
Canadian tour ends August 1.
Gen. Vanier, 71, earned a distingiiished
record overseas in the
Fir^t World War with the Royal
22nd Regiment. He retired from
public seivice in 1953 after eight
years as Canadian ambassador in
Raris.
As Colonel of the Van Doos, of
which he is a founder-member, he
was present when tlie Queen in-
.spected the regiment at Quebec
Cit>' earlier in her tour.
His appointment would follow
the tradition of alternating high
offices between French-speaking
and English.speaking persons.
Governor-General Massey, 72,
has served a record seven and a
half years in the office. His term
avas twice extended. He is the fiirst
lOanadian-born Governor-General,
breaking a tradition of 17 Britishborn
governors-general since confederation.
CASH FOR ARTS
The Canada Council says in its
annual report that after two years
of handing out cash for art's sake,
tlie council's policies are beginning
to take definite form.
One realization lias been tliat
itlie council's annual income of
roughly $2,7.50,000 from its $50,000,-
000 endowment fund can be stretched
only SQ far.
The need of arts, humanities and
social sciences are so great, said
the annual report, "'that time indeed
will 'not wither them, nor
custom stale, nor will $2,750,000
•per annum wholly gratify them."
Sometliing would have to go.
Tlie council could not commit the
bullv of its funds for eitlier small
local groups or for large perennial
contributions to big, establi.siied
organizations.
For one tiling, it would be
"fatal" to f;ry to supixirt the thousands
of small, local orchestras,
choii's, little theatres and the like,
whieh could quicldy devour the
council's budget.
Three Atlend
Branch Meeting
THREE local school board members
attended a m.eeting of tlie
Northern Interior Branch of tlie
B.C. School Trustees' Association,
hold in Prince George last Sunday.
Those making the trip north
were E. L. Bobier, Dick Gliege and
W. L. Gi-ifCith.
Delegates attended from Burns
Lake, Vanderhoof, McBride, Dawson
Creek and Fort St. John, as
u^ell as Prince George and Quesnel.
In addition tliere was a party
of tJiree visitors from the Williams
Lake Sdiool Disti-ict.

WASTE MATTER that tends to
ok>g drau)s, espeaiaMy material
that wiffl iMit dissolve in water,
should never be disposed of througli
the drainage system of a house.
Accumulations of grease, for example,
wiil! slow down and some-
•times block the passage of waste
waiter. •
Plugged or sluggish drains can
often be freed by .simply using a
plunger or force cup. In sonie cases,
however, it may be necessary
!to employ other methods such as
chemicals or mechanical devices.
Lye, the chemical generally used
to clean out grease sediiment
and other obstructions in clogged
drains, should be used only when
proper precautions are taken. If
a lye solution comes into contact
wiith the body, especially the eyes,
senious injury can result. Since the ^
chemical is a caustic substance,
cloithes should also be protected against
splashing. However, when
instructions for their use are followed
oarefuHy, lye and otlier
chemicals are both safe and effective
for cleaning out clogged drains,
espeoially in the case of an accumulia'fcion
of grease.
When more persistent obstructions
are met the chemical flushing
compounds prove ineffective,
'it may be necessary to use a
"snake." Tliis is a wire coil spring
auger which can reach a considerable
distance down the drainpipe,
chewing away at the obstruc-
'tion by means of a metal bit attiached
to the shaft. Some types
are operated by hand, otliers by
means of a motor. Although these
(types are used mainly by plumbers,
simple, inexpensive "snakes"
suitable for homeowners, are available.
A newer method of opening
clogged di^ns involves the use of
an explosive charge or "gun."
Like the motor driven "snake,"
•this device is used mostly by
plumbers who are familiar wiith
its operation.

THE FLUSH tank toHet is standard
in nearly all Canadian homes.
Its mechanism and operation
is simple and repairs can often
be made by the homeowner himself.
Briefly, it consists of a float that
Fence Gives
Privacy For
Oul-of-Doors
WINDOW WALLS and outdoor
living have created a demand
for fences to bring privacy.
With family living extending to
tlie property line, the fence has
now become another wall of the
house and as such has taken on
new patterns and new ways of construction
to fit its new prominence.
CAN BE DECOKAXn E
Tills garden wall can be wonderfully
decorative as well as useful.
And even amateurs can achieve
professional looking results.
The six-foot fence is often an absolute
necessity to a house whose
interior merges with the garden
and is ovei'looked by other houses
or traffic. But in screening for
privacy, landscape architects explain
that it is seldom necessaiy
to provide continuous screening.
Noisy traffic can make a garden
unpleasant unless it is muffled in
.some way.- Homeowners whose
property adjoins busy traffic lanes
have found that by using abundant
evergreen planting against high
fencing, noise has been reduced.
One homeowner has added the
pleasaint patter of water to further
veil the noise. This was done
with several little waterfalls dropping
into little pools.
VARIEXr IN FENCES
There is great variety in fencing
styles from which to choose, but
they should be related to the design
of the house, and landscape,
architects say.
The homeowner can choose a
solid fence made of cedar boards,
plywood sheets, fibreglass or asbestos
board panels. Again it can
be a barrier made of woven plywood
or fibreglass strips. Split cedar
saplings nailed to either side
of 2 .X 4s will make a fence attractive
back and fi'ont. As a shelter
to control wind, ther'g's the
moveable cedar louver type fence.
Since fence building is not a difficult
job, many homeowners build
their- own successfully. The biggest
problem is the post setting.
Once the posts are in place the
'rest is easy.
As well as wood fences, the
.skilled do-it-yxjurselfer can also
build a masonry wall. Brick or
concrete block are not beyond the
average handyman. However, experts
point out that .stonework requires
genuine craftsmanship and
poured concrete takes equipment
and elaborate forming and staging.

rises or falls with the water level
in the tank, closing or opemng the
water intadce valve by means of
a lever to which it is attached. A
second lever, called the trip lever,
is operated manually. It is connected
to a rubber ball that seals
the water outlet when down, and
releases the flow of water into the
bowl when raised. Suction holds
the ball tight against the outlet
when in the down posifion. An overflow
pipe drains the excess water
into the bowi after the proper
level has been reached. Normally
the intake valve is adjusted to
clo.se when fclie water reaches a
point an inch or so below the top
of the overflow drain.
A leak at either the intake valve
or the outlet can be suspected if
water is heard running through
tlie pipes. The inibber baU in the
outlet valve may not be making
water-tight contact against the
valve seat, or there may be some
foreign matter adhering to the
ball. Removing the sediment from
the ball or seat is often aU that is
needed to ensure proper closing;
of the valve. But if the ball is losing
its resiliency or if the rubber
is cracked or disintegrating, it will
have to be replaced.
Anotlier comon failure which
causes the outlet valve to leak is
HEART DISEASE
a bent or stick lift wire. This wiU
prevent the ball from faUing all
the way down or from sitting
squarely on the valve openir^.
Straightening the wire or rotating
the guide arm through which the
wire is threaded will usually correct
this condition. The tank will
have to be emptied and liie intake
valve closed during this operation.
Water can be prevented from entering
the tank by maintaining the
float in the "up" position.
If the trouble is with the intake
valve, the float may be binding
against the walls of the tank, or
the float itself may be leaking or
waterlogged. Binding can be corrected
by bending the float arm
and freeing the float. However, if
the float is punctured or is no
longer serviceable it will have to'
be replaced.
When tile water continually spills
into the overflow pipe a worn-out
washer in the intake valve may
be suspected. To make the repair
the main shutoff valve on tlie water
supply 'line will have to be
closed. The washer can be reached
by removing the scro\\"s that
hold down the plunger. The ring
cap which holds tlie washer jiiay
also have to be replaced if it is
defective.

PATIENTS WITH heart disease
who must be hospjifcalized in hot
weather are greatly helped by air
conditioning of their rooms, according
to a report from the American
Medical Associatiion received
by the Heallth League of Canada.
Two physicians, Drs. George E.
Burch and Niohoilas DePasquale
said that heart patients are helped
because air conditioning elimina'tes
sweating, w'hich causes the
cardiovascular system to work
harder than usual. Thus, it prevents
additional strain on an already
damaged heart.
They said that air-conditioning
of hospi'tal rooms is also especially
helpful to patients witli chronic illnesses
and with broncliial asthma.
The doctors pointed out that airconditioning
as ah adjunct to regular
treatment "has not received
the emphasis in medical literature
that it deserves."
E V E R Y T H I N G
F O R T H E
R U I L D E R
They compared two groups of
patients treaited at charily hospital,
New Orleans, in air condi'tioned
and non-air-conditioned wards.
They found that air-condibioning
benefits most patierits, although
a few could ndt stand it at ail.
They complained of the cold and
of having "stuffy" noses.
The air-condiitioning was beneficial
to patients mainly because
they slept more soundly, longer
and more restfully. Patients who
were short of breath found it easier
to brcalthe, fchus relieving anxielty
and apprehension.
On the whole, air-conditioning
"eliminated sweating, fostered a
calim and quiet atmosphere, improved
morale of both paitients
and attending personnel, removed
aler^ens from the environment
and increased the tolerance of enforced
bed rest," the doctors concluded.

THE FIREPLACE can be a focal
point on patio or tcii-ace as
in the living room.
The fireplace can be a simple
structure of masomy^set into glass
or paving, or a raised metaJ brazier.
The homeowTrer should malce
sure that Uie fire circle is adequate
for outdoor warmtli and that tlie
. brazier is adequate for cooldng. If
they do not meet these requirements
a more elaborate .structure
S U M M E R C A R E OF ROSES
may be necessary.
The installation of a barbecue
fireplace in permanent masonry
must be handled with care. It
should be designed careiuUy, simply
and functionally. It can be
built as part of the enclosing sti-ucture
if po.s.sible.
Its position in relation to house
.did patio .should be studied carefully.
If the fireplace is too heavy,
monumental and obstmsive it will
over-.shadow tlie gabrden picture
and destroy its scale and sense
of .space.
K e e p Motor Clean
CARBURETOR cleaning, magneto
in,spection and breaker point adjustments
to the manufacturer's
specifications by your outboard
dealer will add many more trouble-free
hours of bo.ating pleasure.
Keep your engine clean. It will
operate more efficiently. A small
paintbrush is good for dusting off
the cooling fins. Never use gasoline
for cleaning. It's too explosive.
Kerosene is better for removing
grease and oU—'but wait until
the engine cools.
GLASS CUTTER SHIELD
To protect fhe wheel of a glass
cutter from becoming damaged by
being banged around in a tool
drawer, make a ^ield for the
glass cutter. A short piece of rubber
tubing slipped over the wheel
end wiU do the job.

SUOVnvIER CARE of roses is important
if they are to bear bright
blooms in late summer or fall.
Weekly spraying or dusting to
control Insects is vital. If this routine
is negleOted or omitted, the
plants may suffer severe injury,
loss of foliage and become so
weakened they'll produce scanty
flowers of poor quali'ty.
The home gardener will find it
easier to prevent much of the
damage, rather than try to control
it once it has begun. Remember

Trellis Secures
Outdoor Privacy
TREI.LISES can be much more
than mere sitructures to sujiport
\Tines.
They oan be fashioned into effeOtive
privacy screens for outdoor
laving. A good trellis should
be a good view breaker in spring
before vines produce leaves, or in
autumn after they have lallen.
There are many pleaiSanlt warm
days in these seasons to sit out on

as top of foliage with spray or
dust.
Fonnulas contairiing sulphur
.should be omiittcd during hot weather
to prevent harmful burning of
foliage. Fertilize msebushes alter
early bloom to insure better flowers
in fall. A balanced commercial
fertilizer such as 5-10-,5 or
4-12-4 is recommended.
A tablespoon of this fertUdzer per
plant sprinkled arount the scratched

ijhorough watering, wiill carry the
fertilizer down to the roots.
Adequate water is a prime requisite
during dry weather. Rose •
beds need an occasdonal thoroi^h
soakdng. Light sprinkling is hot effective.
The bost method is to allow water
from the hose to run slowly
until beds are well .soaked. Water
in the morning, not evening. The
nozzle of the ho.se is removed and
the water diffuser attached. Or the
water stream can be diffused by
means of a cloth around the nozzle
since a strong stream of water
might tunnel out channels or "wasli
.soil away from fine feeding roots.
Frequency of soaking will depend
on heat, type and' conditioin
of soil, as well as drainage characteristics.
Do not allow the soil
to become waterlo^ed.

sinco (he Corporation recognizes

Many of these local building

BOUCHIE LAKE — With the
weatherman co-operating beautifully,
the Bouchie Lake W.I. picnic,
held last Sunday at the Armsitrong
Beach, was most enjoyable.
About 50 adulits and children spent
a pleasant afternoon talking summing
and eating. The turkey, kept
in someone's deep freezer since
the convention, was very good
with the salads.
Payton Booth brought his mother,
Mrs. Emma Booth out from
town t-o join in the day's evenlts.
Mrs. Booth was a member of the
W.I. for several years before
moving to town.
Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Puttonen,
with Sandra, Gloria and Valerie
Warden, have rdturned home from
two weeks holiday spent in the
BOwron Lake area. Thoy report
that fishing w'as very good.
Miss Rita Booth will be leaving
this week for Lac la Hache wihere
she will spend several days holidaying
at the Cariboo Youth
Camp.
Those who watched the Gymkhana
pult on by the Trail Riders
Club will join me, I'm sure, in
congratulaiting them on a very
good show. In spiite of the heat the
events were run off in quick succession,
w-hich must have been
hard on all the participants and
their horses as they had Mttle time
to re.gt botween races. It's too bad
a larger area could not be found
for the horse shows, as it's so
much more interesting to waitch
the .slak-e and bending races wnth
all tho hf"'"scs running together instead
of one al a time; using a
stop watcli for timing.
However, as long the thc majority
of the people are more inter
ested in car racing and basebali.
I suppose the horses will lako
w^iatever they can get.

At the regular monthly meeting
held at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
Chris Dilman, the 4-H'ers debated
the topic, "Dairy Stock versus
Beef," but the conclusions of the
discussion were raither indefinite.
We would enjoy hearing them discuss
this controversial subject again
under more converitional procedure.

TRACTOR ACCroENTS
The majority of ohildren in the
four to eight year group killed in
t
tractor accidents last year w^ere
riding a tractor, not operating one
—just along for the ride. Wouldn't
you rather hear a child cry because
he was refused a tractor
ride, than hear him cry becar.se
hv. got hurt riding one? . . . Tractors
are made for one reason, to
operate—and no more.—The Winkler
(Man.) Pembina Triangle Progi-ess.
