Dear Scugog Electors, Two of the most crucial and expensive aspects of municipal government are policing and social Regional government has a strong influence on our neighbourhoods. oS Regional government has the primary respon sibility for maintaining tolerance and harmony in the diverse communities which make up Durham... A job which I believe is not being done Unfortunately, most of these Durham wide issues get lost at election time in a blizzard of local The primary function of local council is to make Life in Scugog Safe, Enjoyable, and Just! We should insist that our Mayor and Regional Councillor demand that Regional Government slightly, but babies and youngsters are still dying by the hundreds. Algeria has been hit by a devestating earthquake, and now the children caught in the horrors of war in Iraq and Iran, all of these children need UNICEF. The following are what your donations help UNICEF provide for the Children of the World. Five cents buys a dose of antibiotic medicine; thirty cents buys vitamin A and D capsules; $5.00 stocks a pond with fish for food; $24.00 buys a water testing kit to make sure the water is safe. Through your continued generosity UNICEF can continue to feed, clothe and care for the physical and emotional needs of these children. Friday October 31st is Hallowe'en. Please drive carefully and watch closely for those who will be out Trick or Treating. If you require any infor- mation or if you have any questions please call Mrs. _ Joanne Huston at 985-2807. --- Farmers beware of silo gas being reminded of the dangers of silo gas. With our larger tower silos, it would appear that silo gas is a problem that is here to stay. . Silo gas is a reddish-brown to yellowish-brown gas in high concentration that smells somewhat like bleach, although the absence of colour and odour does not indicate it is not present. It is heavier than air, and thus tends to hang along the surface of the silage, or spill down the chute of a tower silo and into the feedroom. It can be present within a few hours after filling, with the greatest danger being 12 to 60 hours later. The danger period can last up to three weeks. In high concentration it can cause irritation of the eyes, throat, and lungs, and can result in pneumonia- like respiratory problem - days or even weeks after exposure. The culprit is silo gas is nitric oxide, which is produced as a by-product of the fermentation EE , | With silo filling in progress, farmers are again process.

Yt After this period of time, the danger of nitrogen | AN dioxide gas is greatly reduced; however, steps i ] should be taken to adequately ventilate the silo /i before entering. Running the forage blower for 15 to 20 minutes, with the door closest to the silage open, is recommended. This will allow the nitrogen dioxide to escape when the blower is turned on. Adequate ventilation at the base of the silo, for example, in a feedroom should also be provided to allow any gases that may be present, to escape. Doors between the stable and the silo or feedroom should be kept closed to avoid contamination of the barn area.
