cargo than Pan ama and Suez combined Grassland Farming has Growing Role in Future Grassland farming with adapted varieties makes possible the profitable use of this poorly drained area which is too wet for anything but grazing What can grassland farming mean to the future of livestock farming Henry Ahlgren of Wis consin in CROPS AND SOILS presents six important consider ations Forages provide 64 per cent of the nutrients consumed by dairy cattle in the United States in the form of pasture hay and silage They supply certain efficient proteins min erals and vitamins in greater abundance and cheaper than grains and seeds ortheirby products f2 Forages do more to widen the margin of profit by reducing the cost of feed which repre sents about 50 per cent of the cost of producing milk and by using more efficient rations than can be done by any other means Forages of high nutritional value assure better health of livestock which is even more important than cost or produc tion Forages assure better hu man health Just as livestock with no access to forages would suffer irom nutritional deficien cies so would human consumers of the milk and meat from these animals be deprived of certain nutrients and vitamins normally present in these valuable foods Forage grasses and leg umes protect and improve the soil They reduce soil losses by Wind and water erosion They have beneficial effect on the yield of the crops that follow Forages make possible the use of land that is too wet stony stumpy or rough for anything except grazing Ahlgren also calls attention to certain limitations and weak nesses of grassland farming as practiced now most of which can be overcome Yields of pastures are too frequently and unnecessarily low and the forage is often of poor quality We are getting too small proportion of the potential yield and livestock gains from our pasture land Good pasture is most economical source of feed but often fails to provide uniform supply of palatable and nutri tious forage throughout the growing period Losses during haymaking are excessive Weather condi tions are often not conducive to the production of good quality hay As result hay is more variable in quality than any oth er harvested feed Considerable labor and equipment are required in mak ing hay and silage Fortunately buck rakes field balers bale loaders and field choppers are all big labor savers and should do much to reduce labor costs Milk production per cow is too low Feed in the amount needed and of the desired qual ity is not in itself guarantee of maximum return or profit for dairy farmers usruxe MINE WE wan can AN LIKE POP savs WHEN IT comes to HEATINOCOAL is SAFERAND YOU can STORE in THE SUMMER ANFonoET with other Innisfil Sale Of Herefords The dispersal sale of the herd

Discuss Mutual Fire Aid Plan Some 52 firemen tire chiefs and members of council from munici palities the length and breadth of Simcoe County met in the counci chambers Barrie on Wednesday evening to discuss Mutual Aio Fire System for Simcoe County John Iurnbull on behalf of the Ontario Fire Marshals Office pre sented the plan and pointed out that mutual aid on limited basis already does exist in the county but that the Mutual Aid Plan would organize all municipalities who wish to participate in the plan so that should any one of them have major fire they could call upon other fire departments for help through proarranged sys tern This system is designed to ulti mately become vital part of our defence organization The speaker illustrated the overall in adequacy of Ontarios firefighting system by pointing out that if an aircraft were to bomb the City of Hamilton with high explosives and in this atomic age high ex plosives are thing of the past about 800 pumpequipped fire trucks would be needed to contain the resulting blazes There are about 752 fire trucks of this type in the province of Ontario he stated Through the organization which would grow out of the Mutual Aid System municipalities could be given an incentive to increase the standards of their firefighting systems For the plan to work of fectively all mrticipating munici palities must maintain good standard of firefighting equip ment In order to put the plan in to effect each municipality would have to pass bylaw or resolu tion in council authorizing their fire dcpantmcnt to give service to other communities free of charge for which they would receive sini ilar service should the need arise The plan provides that in the event municipality has sent its firefighting equipment to another 12 11
