OBONO WEEKLY TIMES, THURSDAY, JANUARY 18th, 1968 D. C.S.C..A. HoId T iïr Annua* l Meeting The Durham County Soil and Crop Improvement Association held their Annual Meeting in the I.O.O.F. Hall, Orono on Monday, January 8, 1968. The meeting was opened by the President, Wm. A-llun at 10:00 a.m. A film on "NwMethods of Handling For-, -age" was shown by Ron Suther-, land, Assistant Agricultural Rçp- Harvey Wright took charge of the discussion on the -plot work in the -four counties (Durham, Peterborough, Victoria and Ont- ario), with the "assistance of Gro- ver Smith, Weed and Seeds Spec- ialist, Souls and Crops, Brighton, and A. O. Dalrymple, Bowman- bille. Alfai! a test plots set out on Gerald Armstrong's property, Fraserville la 1963 indicated that for long-term stands, the North- ern varieties Vernal and Cayuga -are superior to the Flemish aifal- las, Duplits and Glacier. Be-aver was not as good as the two other Žorthern, varieties la this test. A,% test set out on John Ferguson's property, Port Hope la 1966 shows the Flemnish varieties Apex and Alfa did better than Vernal. -'The Flemîsh varieties," said Harvey WrIght, "have shown here again the ir characteristics of early vigorous growth, and fast .aftermath. We wili be watching now for two or three years to see if any of the Flemish variet- les can match Vernal la hardi- ness and iong-life." Brome grass variety trials were set out la 1967 on , the property of Glen Larmier, Nestieton, using Red- Patch brome and the most com- mon brome variety, Lincoln, wýhich it shouid be ahead of in leaffiness, aftermath, recovery and d-iseaqse resistance. During 1967 the trefoil varicties, Viking andI Empire alone anud lai mixýtures wvere put on plots on high, dry, land and wet seepage land on, the property of Oswald Mitchell, Pontypbol, to detcrniine the ef- fect of these types of conditions oni these varieties. Usinig small plots it has been found possible to reseed, pasture without working the land. The procedure invoives using, the chemical Dalapon to kili the ex- isting grasses, an application of fertilizer and then seeding with trefoil. Plots were set out ia Ap- ruf 1967, with the co-operation o! iBill Tamblyn, Orono and Bey. Gray, Garden Hil1, on an acre basis to see if this mnethod of're- seeding was practicai under field conditions. It appears that this mnethod of reseeding worked best in dlean fields; with reasonably tbick grass stands which had been .grazed iairly elosely the prcvious year. These plots will have to ~be watched during the next few years to get the final resuits. A large number of trials in- volving gr ain corn hybrids, early ~and late cora hybrids, starter fer- tilizers for corn, and the effeet o! cultivatimouo corn yields, were also reported upon and may be found la the Durham County Soil and, Crop Improvement- Associa- tion Annual Report 1967 which is availabie free of charge from the Ontario Department of Agri- culture and Food,i 14 Frank St., Bowm-anville.

Port Pope Residen- ts Founde Dead. Early resuits of a post mortem examination on the bodies of 3 Port Hope residents point to death from asphyxiation, Crown Attorney P. Bonnycastle said on Monday. Mr. Bonnycastle also said an inquest, will be called into the deaths of MUr. andMrs. Peter Umi- brasko an~d Charles Fulford, whose bodies were discovered in the Umbrasko hom'e Friday night. The crowný attorney added he had been talking with the prov- incial pathoiogist just prior, to completion of the post mortem. There were no signs of viol- ence to indicate possibility of* foui play, the pathologist toid hlm. The bodies of Mr. Umbrasko, 45 his wif e Anna Lise, 40, and Mr. Fulford, believed to be in his middle 50's, were discovered in the 10 Beamish Street residence Friday night by Ernest Sutton of 64 Hope Street North. Mr. Sutt-n. ëa sub-foreman t Crane Canada itcl., wilere Mr. Umbrasko worked, was deliver- ing a paycheck about eight o'- dlock Friday night. Mr. Umbras- ko had not been to work for the previous two, days'. Upon arrivai at the house, Mr, Sutton noticed the storm door was open about four inches and the inside door was wide open. 1When he looked in he saw the body of Mrs. Umbrasko lying on the chesterfieid.

Further investigation by police "A Wider Brotherhood" Taken from a sermon preached by Rev. Basil Long. Scripture Lessons: Ephesians 4: 1-7; Mark 9: 38-40. A wider brotherhood is per- haps the best answer to the need for world peace, and to speak of a wider brotherhood is to con- sider that which does not corne easily to men in their associations with others.

Corstan in "Panorama of the Bible" says, "there areý some people even today who ig- norantiy think, that one god is aný good 'as another and that peopleý shouid be allowed to worship ag they please. Such people do net know much about the gods, of the Near East, in the days of the Old Testament.
