Chiltern Lions Serving the Community The Grapevine Distributed Throughout Chiltern, Barnawartha, Springhurst & Indigo Valley Issue No 02 6th March 2015 Fortnightly Since 1976 Queensland Fruit Fly - Destroying our Fruit Trees Many of you growing fruit in Chiltern this year will have been disappointed to find much of it infested with the Queensland Fruit Fly. This year seems to have been much worse than previous years and to prevent fruit fly from becoming a permanent problem in the district we need to take action now. There are over 250 species of fruit fly in the family Tephritidae which occur in Australia but only about ten are pests. QFF is native to eastern Queensland and north eastern New South Wales and has spread to urban and horticultural areas in Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria and the Northern Territory. QFF lay eggs in maturing and ripe fruit on trees and sometimes in fallen fruit. The maggots (larvae) hatch and the fruit is destroyed by the feeding maggots and by associated fruit decay. QFF can attack a wide range of fruit, fruiting vegetables and native fruiting plants. Evidence of QFF activity is sometimes seen as puncture marks (stings) in the skin of fruit. The stings are where the female fruit fly has laid her eggs. Sting marks may appear as brown spots on persimmons, apples and pears or small holes that may becomes There are four stages in the life cycle of QFF: egg, larva (maggot), pupa and adult. Completion of the QFF life cycle is dependent on temperature and moisture. Each stage may take from a week to several weeks. Under favourable conditions one generation takes about four weeks. The best way to stop fruit fly is by picking and use any fruit as it ripens, don't leave it on the plant for fruit flies to attack. Collect and destroy any rotting or unwanted host fruit, whether it is on the ground or still on the plant. Unwanted fruit can be microwaved to kill any maggots inside prior to being disposed of. Alternatively, place the fruit in a plastic bag, seal the bag and leave it in the sun for 5-7 days, or place it in a freezer for two days. The bagged fruit can then be discarded in your garbage bin. Do not add unwanted fruit to your compost or worm farm, or put it directly into your garbage. Remove any unwanted or unmanageable host plants from your property and replace them with non-host alternative plants. Report neglected host plants on public land to the land manager (e.g. the local council), to encourage removal of the plants and improve QFF management across a wider area. Cover spraying can be used to directly control adult QFF on contact, and destroy eggs and larvae within fruit. Cover sprays contain contact/systemic insecticides, and are sometimes mixed with a lure to help protect produce from initial fruit fly infestations. Cover sprays are generally applied to foliage and developing fruit. Home garden products are usually available in small pack sizes or as ready-to-use formulations. Speak to your local chemical or home garden retailer about suitable products for your situation. Cover sprays can be harmful to human and environmental health if used incorrectly. Always read and follow the product label when using an insecticide. Usage directions can vary depending on the product and host produce you intend to spray. As the insecticide user, it is your responsibility to ensure the product is used according to the The Grapevine 6th March 2015 Edition 02 label directions.

It was built and installed by our parent Paul Ramsay. We are thrilled to have this as a permanent recreation activity that our students will be able to use at play time every day at school. Briony and Fiona from the Barnawartha The blue skies and weather couldn’t have been any better for our FETE last Friday evening. On behalf of all the staff we would like to send a huge thank you to the community of Barnawartha for their support. Together we raised just over $1,600. The atmosphere was perfect and reflected the amazing community spirit and relationships we have with our families and friends of Barnawartha Primary School. Proving that once again we may be small in number, but we have the biggest of hearts and we know it’s the little things that we do to support each other that lead to big things when we get together. Rod, Alex and Daniel from the Chiltern Men’s Shed and Simon De’Garis, Rural Land Developer, got involved and show their support with Jan Manglesdorf and Shelley Kelly from “Skellywags” support the school and show off their amazing creativity and beautiful display Don’t forget: We have a school app!

The learning extends to the Kitchen Garden Program with each class having their turn in our Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden (SAKG) and cooking up a storm in the kitchen. The tasty dips made from our own basil and cucumbers, including tsatziki and pesto, have been a hit on home made naan bread. While the cheese and spinach muffins and juicy corn harvested from the garden were mouthwateringly delicious. Our children are very clever to have made these dishes and they are so fortunate to have the opportunity to harvest from their garden and eat the fresh produce that same day. It’s no wonder when everyone sits down at the table to eat the meal that the food is eaten with relish and the serving bowls are quickly emptied. The Parents & Friends Committee decided at their meeting last week to create a Cook Book of Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden recipes with some favourites from home. It is certain to be a best seller!

We are already using 2 less bins! It is lovely to see the inventive ways lunches are now arriving at school. Feedback from our students: Daniel—I use a food container which comes with my lunchbox. Instead of bringing packets, I just put them in my container. Putting your food in a lunch container will reduce the amount of rubbish in our playground. Bridie—I bring my lunch in containers and I don’t have any rubbish at school. Now the rubbish truck doesn’t have to take as much rubbish. Douglas—I bring ‘nude food’ every day. It’s not wrapped; it’s just in food containers Regent Honeyeater Program Once again Taronga Zoo has invited Chiltern Primary to participate in the 2015 Regent Honeyeater Release (of captive bred birds from Taronga) and community monitoring project. This is the third time we have been involved. The release is planned for mid-April - and therefore potential field and school activities will be arranged in the lead up - with particular emphasis on the period between the 10th and 17th of April Swimming Sports Once again we had very successful District swimming sports on Tuesday 17 February. These days involve many hours of planning and organising and I would like to sincerely thank Colleen McQuillen for giving up her time to make sure the day ran smoothly. Also, thank you to those parents and community volunteers who also gave their time to assist on the day. Congratulations to Matilda (freestyle and butterfly), Melody (breast stroke), Ashton (breast stroke) and Ella (freestyle) who will now compete at zone level in Wodonga on Friday February 27th. Wear Red for Red Cross March is Red Cross Calling month. Red Cross Calling is our oldest national fundraising campaign. Now approaching its 66th year, it encourages Red Cross Supporters and members of the general public to volunteer their time during March and fundraise in their local community. Funds raised will support their vital everyday work helping people and communities in need. Once again we are supporting this worthwhile event by encouraging all students to wear red to school on Wednesday 11th March. A gold coin donation is encouraged.

The truck was run for a week, and supplied with ice so as to maintain a temperature of 43 degrees, but instead of it keeping the rabbits in good condition a reverse result was attained, and it has therefore been decided to take the truck off the line The experiment goes to show that an ice truck is of no utility for the carriage of game or meat unless the articles to be conveyed are received at railway statons in a thoroughly cool or chilled condition. If an export trade in rabbits is to be successfully established an indispensable condition would appear to be that they should be dressed and chilled in the country. Friday, February 15, 1895 It is with feeling of regret that we have to state that the secretary to the Chiltern and Rutherglen branch of the A.M.A., Mr C. D. Lucas is missing. It had been known for some few days that everything in connection with the branch was not as it should be, and the fact that Mr Lucas left Chiltern, unknown to anyone, on Tuesday evening February 5th, lent additional colour to the surmise. On Thursday evening a special meeting of the branch was held, but owing to the non-appearance of the secretary, he was suspended and Mr Woodward appointed to act pro tem. On Friday the books were secured, but although no discrepancies were discovered, it was known that several mounts which had been paid over to him were unaccounted for. In the face of no consisting evidence being immediately forthcoming, several of the officers proceeded to Eldorado last Sunday and there they found out that £20 13s 6d contribution money had been paid to Lucas. No record was shown of this amount and the officers finding out that Lucas had received the money through post-office orders, a warrant will be issued charging him with the embezzlement of the sum above mentioned. There are several other alleged misappropriations, but the exact extent of the defalcations will never be properly known. We can authoratively state however, that the report given in a metropolitan and district contemporary about the alledged discrepancies and the various modes of acting on the part of the officers is a mere fabrication, and should be taken with a grain of salt. The only true sentence in it is that Charles D. Lucas is missing. Friday, February 22, 1895 We were the other day shown some splendid specimens of tomatoes grown by Mr John Secton of Chiltern. The fruit was of the Ponderosa variety, and possessed a flavor of the highest order. As regards to weight, several turned the scale at over 2lbs. For market purposes the variety can scarcely be surpassed, and it commends itself to district growers for that purpose. Tenders for supplying the Chilternshire council with 250 closet pans and fifty air tight lids for use in connection with the lately adopted night pan system in Chiltern, closed yesterday, some half-dozen tenders being received. It was first intended that the council town members should open the tenders yesterday, but owing to the absence from Chiltern of Cr Kilgour the matter has been postponed for a few days. 60 YEARS AGO Friday, February 11, 1955 POPULAR BANK MANAGER RETIRES We know of no-one anywhere who will not regret the impending retirement of our popular New South Wales bank manager, Mr Noel Roset. MR H. N. Roset will enter on long service leave on Wednesday March 1 prior to retirement next August. His successor will be Mr R.M. Wisbey, Manager of the Frankston branch. It is pleasing to know that one who has given such outstanding The Grapevine 6th March 2015 Edition 02 10 public service inside and outside the bank is not going to leave us. Mr. and Mrs Roset will live in what was once the headmaster's residence. Mr. Roset has been in the service of the bank for 46 years having been manager for 24 years and seen service in 45 branches. He joined the bank in Sydney and has been in Chiltern for 13 years. We wish him and his good lady many happy years of retirement in our midst. Friday, February 18, 1955 RECIPE FOR ROMANCE My brother put off telling his motherless daughter the facts of life as long as possible. But when she fell in love for the first time at 16, he realized that he had to talk to her. I overheard his concluding remark, "Jean, the best advice I can give you is written on the top of a mayonnaise jar." That night, when I mixed the salad for dinner, these words on the mayonnaise jar leapt up at me" "Keep cool, but don't freeze." - Contributed Friday, February 25, 1955 OBITUARY - MR. HUGH CHRISTIE The death occurred in the Wangaratta Hospital on Sunday, February 6, of Mr. Hugh Christie aged 76 years, after an operation and eight weeks in hispital. Deceased, who was born at Barnawartha, but lived most of his life in Chiltern, married Violet Milligan. Deceased had one brother Jack of Maffra. Deceased was laid to rest in the Barnawartha cemetery, the Rev. McBain, Presbyterian Minister reading the burial services. 50 YEARS AGO Friday, February 19, 1965 £53 AN ACRE FOR BARNAWARTHA LAND A Barnawartha South property of 291 acres was sold last week for £53 an acre.The dairying and grazing property was offered by Victorian Producers' Co-op Co. Ltd, Wodonga, on account of the executor of the estate of Mr. F. Brewer. Vendors were J.F and L.M Stivens, of Finley. Friday, February 19, 1965 BOWLERS HONOUR CHARLIE OATES The Chiltern Bowling Club held a special social evening on Saturday, February 1 at their club room to honour their second super veteran in his attaining the age of 80 in the person of the very well liked Charlie Oates. The evening was a very social affair, over 50 being present. They consisted of bowlers, their wives and friends who wished to pay their respects to this highly respected bowler, and one who has resided within a 10 mile radius of Chiltern all his life. The evening consisted of dancing intersperced with films shown by Mr. B Fuge and taken while on his world tour. These films were particularly colourful and interesting, and enjoyed by all. At the appropriate time the president of the club Mr. Joe Fisher, in his usual breezy way, spoke of the many fine qualities of the quest of honour. He referred to Mr Oates' term in the Chiltern Shire Council, where he helped many in his quiet way. He also told of how, in his business, he never let the needy go hungry, especially during the trying depression days. Mr. Robert Scott supported the president, and said Charlie Oates had been an outstanding citizen, a very fair man when in competition as a fellow grocer, a keen and well-liked bowler. Mr Oates, who was visably affected by the eulogies and hand clapping and singing of "For He's a Jolly Good Fellow" quickly regained his sense of humour when the audience began to sing "The Old Grey Mare Aint What She Used To Be" and "Why Was He Born So Beautiful." He was delighted with the bowlers and friends for holding such an evening. He thanked the organisers and those who were present for a wonderful night-a night he would never forget. He was most grateful to the club for being included this year in the pennant team, and he hoped to play the wonderful old game for a few more years. He had been born and reared within a radius of 10 miles of Chiltern. A lovely supper was provided by the ladies, and is always a great feature. The music for dancing was supplied by Messrs. A. Cooper and R. Franchi.

Seniors from Beechworth, Rutherglen and Chiltern enjoyed a great day of friendship, fun and laughter at the recently held games day in the Senior's rooms. In the absence of the club's president Mr Bob Goldsworthy, secretary Maxine Arblaster welcomed all present and players divided into games they wished to play. Concentration was fierce from those playing Chinese Checkers and cards and lots of frustration and laughter from those throwing dice, playing beetles. Prizes were given to all winners and the lucky door prize was won by Mardi Kendrick. A scrumptious lunch was served commencing with canapes and finishing with numerous slices and fresh fruit platters. Games continued after lunch until afternoon tea was served. A big thankyou to the committee for all the planning and catering they did to make the day a great success. Participants are awaiting the date of the next Games day. Meanwhile please note that due to the demand cards/euchre is on EVERY Tuesday at 1.30. Love to see you there. Includes afternoon tea.

Maxine Arblaster Secretary Another Yarn from Chiltern Spinners It is great to be back at our regular Thursday evening meetings. Do you remember the story of Elizabeth unpicking her pink knitted blanket in disgust? Well, she arrived at the first meeting of Chiltern Spinners for 2015 with not only the pink yarn re-knitted into a gorgeous multi-patterned Aran-style baby blanket but also a matching one in blue. The results were greatly admired. Her work is exceptional. Not to be outdone, Rhonda produced her completed cream crocheted circular baby shawl which was also admired by all our members. This first meeting for the year showed how busy everyone had been over the summer break. Sue produced a delightful Shawn the Sheep quilted wall hanging and Leisa stunned everyone with her tally of 31 beanies – each one a different colour pattern. More than half of the beanies have already found a home. Ellen produced two skeins of handspun yarn – one from dyed merino and the other from alpaca with one ply natural black and the other dyed alpaca. The finished yarn was soft and so interesting. Lyn has been busy working on her craft almost every day. She showed everyone a gorgeous skein plied with two different colours from her own coloured sheep – one grey and one black. She had also crocheted the back panel of what will become a crocheted vest.

Black Dog Creek Big Game Fishing Club Fish Released In Lake The club together with Fisheries Victoria and “The Hook” (Border Mail fishing correspondent) on Thursday 19th February released 1,000 yellowbelly (golden perch) fingerlings into Lake Anderson. This is the third year in a row that fish have been released. The first fish released (2 years ago) are now 30+cm long, with one caught at the kid’s fish day measuring 42.5cm and another 36.5cm. Now is a great time for parents to teach their kids the enjoyment of fishing and have a picnic or use the free electric BBQ (opposite the bowling club) the fishing club built quite a few years ago. The minimum size for yellowbelly is 30+cm, so any smaller fish must be returned or Which Member of our Club is this? you can be fined. Boat Licence Anyone wishing to obtain a licence. The Vietnam Veterans Club of Wodonga are putting on a Jet Ski & Boat Licence course in the near future. For details call (0467 508749) or go to www.wodongaboatlicencecourse.com.au or see our fishing club noticeboard at the Telegraph Hotel (near the billiard table).

During 2015 there will be 2 evening meetings for those who cannot attend during the day. These will be well advertised ahead of time. During the year two stalls will be held, one for Red Cross Calling, and the other at the end of the year. Our group is involved with volunteering in emergencies and adds to Red Cross funds through catering events. Of special note the group would like to congratulate Olive Nesbitt who, after an amazing life time of service to Red Cross catering in Chiltern, (she began assisting in the 1959 fires!!!) has decided that her catering days are over. Olive has assisted with road accidents, Pelican Industries, Mayday Hills and community meals as well as local events. Olive will remain a branch member. Time to hang up the apron Olive!
