Henderson has announced the details of nine research projects to be financed from Provincial lottery funds. Four of the projects deal with safety and quality of food. Diversified Research Laboratories - Ltd. will conduct a study designed to develop 'a rapid method of determining the level of vitamin D in milk. The department of environmen- tal biology of the University of Guelph will conduct a project to develop a rapid method of screening the microbiological quality of red meat. The university's food science department will study the use of nisin, a natural food preservative, as a substitute for sodium nitrate in cured meats. The nutrition department of the University of Guelph will test germinated cereals and legumes to determine the nutrient content of the sprouts as compared to that of the seeds.

The animal and poultry science department of the University of Guelph will investigate the heritability of immunoglobu- lin in dairy cattle in order to reduce calf and heifer mortality through selective breeding. : The nutrition department of the University of Guelph will look at the effects of mycotoxin residues in pork to determine whether moldy corn fed to pigs affects the quality of the carcass. Canada Packers Ltd. "will conduct a program to deve- lop an economical diet for rabbits that will allow maximum meat production at minimum cost. The final project will be conducted by the Ontario Veterinary College and will be aimed at assessing factors influencing drug residue levels in animal tissues. Tests carried out in the Ottawa area by the Canadian Combustion Research Labo- ratory _ indicated that the average residential oil furnace may be operating up to "0 per cent below its rated efficiency. The main causes are improper adjustment and inadequate mainten- ance. It is important that an oil furnace be given a complete service check-out once a year. The laboratory cites six important functions the serviceman should carry out-- 1. Remove soot. The fireport, heat exchange and pipes should be completely cleaned. . 2. Check stack tempera- These nine projects are part of a series, funded by a $5 million grant from the Provincial lottery, in the general areas of food supply, food safety, nutrition and health.

The largest heat loss will be in the hot gases going up the chimney. To keep this to a minimum, the service- man should measure the temperature of the gases leaving the furnace. ¥ shoul should measure the tem- perature between 300 de- grees Farenheit (148 degrees C.) and 450 degrees Faren- heit (230 degrees C.). Often this temperature is over 600 degrees: Farenheit (316 degrees C.). It can be reduced by increasing the speed of the circulating fan. 3. Try a smaller nozzle size. One 20 percent smaller, or the lowest firing rate recommended for your furnace, whichever results in the greater improvement, will result in a drop in flue gas temperature, and an increase in furnace efficien- cy. 4. Check smoke number. The serviceman should draw a small amount of stack gas through a smoke density measuring device. In an efficient furnace, the stack gas will be virtually free of soot. If not, the burner should be re-tuned. level. the amount of carbon dioxide in the stack gas will give a further measurew of the furnace's thermal effi- ciency. Measured this way the best efficiency that can be expected is about 80-85 per cent. 6. Check draft and adjust barometric damper. The serviceman should check the draft or draw of air through the fuel box and in the stack. The barometric damper should be adjusted if neces- sary. The Director of Investiga- tion and Research at the Department of Consumer and Corporate Affairs believes that furnace check- outs advertised as "com- plete" should include the above-mentioned tests. If - such tests are not performed during a complete check-out the advertiser faces the possibility of an inquiry in relation to the misleading advertising provision of the Act.
