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

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

St Joseph’s Primary School
The year, at St Joseph’s, has got off to a very smooth start and everyone is heads
down and focused on their learning.
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!

Chiltern Primary School
Rubbish Free School
At Chiltern primary we are endeavouring to reduce the amount of rubbish in our bins and
playground by encouraging all students to bring a ‘nude food’ lunch each day and taking their
own rubbish home. 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.

From the Athenaeum
Extracts from The Federal Standard Newspaper
120 YEARS AGO
Friday, February 8, 1895
An experiment tried by the Railway department in the carriage of rabbits in an ice truck from
Wangaratta has resulted in failure. 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.

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

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.

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

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.

Chiltern Senior's Club News.
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.
The Chiltern Seniors need new members, our monthly meetings 1st Thursday of each month
1.30pm. Come along and put forward your ideas and help us to put new life into the club. Our
aim is to host low cost days of entertainment for the seniors of our wonderful community.
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.
Photo: Dawn, Rhonda, Elizabeth, Pat and Sandy admiring the cream circular baby shawl
crocheted by Rhonda and the pink and blue baby blankets knitted by Elizabeth.

Starring Chips Rafferty, Bud Tingwell, Rod Taylor & Reg Lye.
Ted King, a pearler in the Torres Strait, finds a body floating in the sea which gives him a lead to a racket

sailor, Yusep is involved. The racketeers kidnap King's daughter Rusty, and hold her as a hostage

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

Chiltern Red Cross News
We would like to remind people that meetings are usually held on the first Monday of every
month at 1:00pm in Senior Citizens rooms. 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!
The Chiltern community thanks you for your years of service.
