The "Olds" 



IS A 



Quality Engine 



The call to-day is for "Quality." 



The matter of price does not carry 

 so much weight with the careful buy- 

 er as the "quality" of the goods. 



The "OLDS" Trade Mark stands 

 for "Quality" — efficiency and econo- 

 my. 



Every "OLDS" Engine bears this 

 mark and it guarantees the purchaser 

 full value for his money. 



All "OLDS" Engines are thorougii- 

 ly tested and tried out before leaving 

 the factory, — each and every one 

 must be in perfect running order be- 

 fore it is shipped. 



"OLDS" Engines are built in the 

 largest factory in the world devoted 

 exclusively to the manufacture of 

 gasoline engines, and are the result 

 of thirty years' experience in engine 

 building. 



JUMP SPARK SYSTEM OF IG- 

 NITION- Simple, EfTi-ctivc. Reliable. 



WATER JACKET, CYLINDER, 

 VALVE CHAMBER and MAIN 

 FRAME are four entirely separate 

 ( astings. 



CYLINDER HEAD is cast solid 

 with the cylinder. 



PISTONS and CYLINDERS are 



made of the very hardest iron and are 

 ground to a perfect fit. 



PATENT SEACER MIXER en- 

 sures a perfect mixture of gasoline 

 and air, and works without a gasoline 

 pump. 



BEARINGS are large, well oiled 

 and lined with genuine anti-friction 

 babbit metal.

Eastern Annapolis Valley 



Eaoice Watts BucbaBin 



Several years ago it was said that it 

 was olily a matter of time before the San 

 Jose scale would establish itself in the 

 Annapolis Valley. 



Living scales have been found on young 

 trees in Aylesford, which were imported 

 from Ontario in 1911, and since then oth- 

 ers have been discovered on nursery stock 

 importe<l this spring. The Nova Scotia 

 Fruit Growers' Association at once caJled 

 a special meeting in order to find out the 

 best method of fighting the pest, especially 

 as from twenty to fifty per cent of the 

 Ontario nursery stock is reported to be in- 

 feste<l. At the conclusion of the meeting 

 in Kentville the following resolutions were 

 introduced and seconded : 



That the N. S. F. G. A. recommend that 

 the Provincial Government appoint in- 

 spectors to make a thorough inspection of 

 trees likely to be infested with San Jose 

 scale, and that they give their inspectors 

 authority to destroy or superintend the 

 destruction of all trees infested with living 

 scale or likely to he the source of future 

 infestation of San Jose scale. 



That in future all nursery stock import- 

 ed into the province be inspected and fumi- 

 gated at a 'port of entry deemed best by 

 the government. 



Since the above meeting was held, the 

 local government has appointed six inspect- 

 ors, who will work under Mr. G. E. Saun- 

 ders, B.S. A., of Ottawa. The young in- 

 spectors are former students of Truro Agri- 

 cultural College, and will inspect all nur- 

 sery stock which has been imported into 

 the province during the last two years. 

 Their instructions are to destroy infested 

 trees immediately. 



Brown Tail Moth has been found in orch- 

 ards in Union Square and Lakefield, King's 

 County. 



Nova Scotia 



In order to study more thoroughly in 

 Nova Scotia the more serious insect pests 

 affecting orchards and measures for their 

 control, the Dominion Department of Agri- 

 culture is establishing an entomological 

 field station in the Annapolis Valley, and 

 in ooox^eration with the fruit growers will 

 carry on oxneriments in other sections. Mr. 

 Ralph Eaton has placed several acres of 

 young orchard at the disposal of the Divi- 

 sion of Entomology, for experimental pur- 

 poses. Dr. Gordon Hewitt, Dominion En- 

 tomolgist, is now in Nova Scotia for the 

 purpose of making arrangements for the 

 carrying on of these investigations, and 

 the Uxjation of the field laboratory. Mr. 

 G E. Saunders, B. S. A., field ofiftcer of the 

 Division of Entomology, will have charge 

 of the work. 



This new devel ipment is part of a scheme 

 which has been decided upon for the wider 

 study of insect pests. A satisfactory study 

 of these dcsLructivo agencies and measures 

 for further control can be carried on only 

 in the regions where they commonly occur, 

 and for this reason a number of entomologi- 

 cal field stations, each of which will con- 

 .sist of a small laboratory in charge of a 

 trained entomologist, working under the 

 direction of the Dominion Entomologist, 

 are being established in thos<! parts of Can- 

 adi where they are most needed. Nova 

 Scotia and New Brunswick are each to 

 have such a station. In Nova Scotia the 

 Bud Moth and Brown Tail Moth will be 

 studied more .specially. It is also intend- 

 ed to very carefully investigate the han 

 Jose scale situation.

IJ it I'.tfi'f an /lasfmau, it isn't a Kodak 



KODAK 



me.Tns photography with the 

 bother left out — means that the 

 once dilTicult processes have been 

 so simplified that you can readily 

 take good pictures by following 

 the perfectly simple directions 

 that accompany each camera. 



The Kodak Advantage 



Kodaks load in daylight ; plate 

 cameras require plate holders which 

 must be loaded in a dark room. 

 Kodak films are light ; glass plates 

 are heavy ; Kodak films are non- 

 breakable ; glass plates are fragile. 

 Kodak films may be developed in a 

 dark 100m but are preferably devel- 

 oped in the Kodak Film Tank in 

 broad daylight. Glass plates must 

 either be developed in a dark-room 

 or loaded into a tank in the dark- 

 room — the film cartridge system is 

 the only practical means of entirety 

 eliminating the darli-room. You 

 may easily develop your own films 

 or may send them by mail for devel- 

 opment. Sending glass plates by 

 mail is risky. 



With a Kodak there are no extra 

 attachments to buy ; it is complete, 

 ready for use. With a plate camera 

 you must buy extra plate-holders or 

 it is of no use to you — remember this 

 in counting the cost. 



Kodak films give better results for 

 the amateur than glass plates because 

 they have the orthochromatic and 

 ron-halation qualities that help over- 

 come the harsh lighting conditions 

 that he encounters. 



Plate camera manufacturers adver- 

 tise the fact that professional photog- 

 raphers use glass plates and that 

 therefore you should. It's true that 

 professional photographers use glass 

 plates in their studios for their regu- 

 lar work because the dark room is 

 only a few feet from the spot where 

 their camera stands. For their vaca- 

 tion trips they use Kodaks mostly, 

 just the same as other folks. 



Kodak photography means less 

 trouble, better pictures. 



Ask your dealer or write us for 

 the illustrated Kodak catalogue. 

 Kodaks. $5.00 and up; Brownie cam- 

 eras, thev work like Kodaks, $1.00 

 to $12.00."
