Manitoba mosquitoes eyed for biological control by nematode
Findings by Dr. T D Galloway from Manitoba studies explore using Louisiana mermithid nematodes to control Manitoba mosquitoes. Research tests infection at low temperatures, winter survival, and effective application rates, with native species also under study. Results show promise but emphasize complexity, cost, and reliability versus chemicals.

What’s Really in a Slice of Bread
A 1977 Senate nutrition report counters belief that grain products are fattening. It urges Americans to double complex carbohydrates while halving sugar and fat, noting bread provides protein iron B vitamins and calcium. Bread additives range from calcium propionate to enzymes and yeast foods, with different chemical helpers shaping texture. The piece defends bread as a nutritional bargain and urges eating bread with less fat and sugar.
