hours drive up Highway 103 it is in the midst of typical Mus koka rock and tree formatldn in fact one cannot help but be pleased with the variety of land forms and vegetation of the area Then too it is located in wonderful areafor canoe trip ping because it is in theheart of maze of rivers and lakes which make it possible to travel to the north and east to Baia and beyond and to the south and west over to Georgian Bay This is mixed blessing the wonderful opportunities inherent in these numerous waterways are tempered by the amount of boat traffic which churns up and down the length and breadth of every navigable body of water The campsite is removed from existing roads by about two mil es of water and little less over land It is still in primitive stages boasting only two bulld ings One is small green shack which has been used as stor age area the other is larger building erected mostly through the efforts of our Ys Mens Club which has small kitchen and dining area SHORTCOMINGS

if your building investment goes beyond $5625 per 50 cows So estimates Bellman extension specialist with the Ontario Dcpartmcot of Agriculv lurc Hls reasoning beef cowcalf hard can pay for no thing but the most simple and inexpensive buildings Bellman looks at it this way With an average on per cent calf drop per year and not sales Ear year per cow of steers and alters at 500 pounds your net sales for the year will be 22500 pounds 50 500 average price over the last few years has been 25c 11 pound so total gross returns for the 50 cow herd would be $5525 Economists figure beef cows can afford to pay approximately eight per cent of gross annual income towards annunl rent for buildings and equipment says Bellman Looking at it that way the yearly born rent would be or times $5625

as ever and he is still just waiting for the time he can get clear of the hospital and it isnt necessarily the most economical Any investment for fociiltlcs above the aciual need of the animals is nn economic 1055 even if the total is well below the breokaven point aw that produces $200 calf doesnt need twice as much housing as onc producing $100 calf All it means is that the higher the ro turn
