larm operator has asked the county for permission to use about 30 acres of forest property for a disposal site a committee headed by reeve ga williams of vaughan plus represen tatives of the dept of

represen tative for york county york cty spring grain ran into trouble last week our crop specialist paul fish was on a lot of farms to investigate here are some things he found the most common difficulty was that barley in particular was turning yellow with some of it dying and often entire fields looking sick paul identified the cause many times as root rot yellow ends on the leaves brown stalks and stunted roots are the symptoms the disease is soil borne and there is no cure for it mildew is causing some trouble too light coloured spots on the leaves are evident fortunately herta barley is resistant to mildew so that its likely to show up only on keystone or conquest some fields were showing a shortage of fertility even where there was adequate fertilizer put present trophy stouffville a trophy in the name of the stouffville and claremont lions club will be put up for competition in future best float classes of the ontarioquebec lions convention parades this year the prize was won by stouffville- claremont but no trophy was available instead the clubs received 100 in prize money lion ollie pellett said the money would be used to purchase the grand prize trophy while two smaller ones would be retained one for stouffville and the other for claremont on cold nights last week slowed up the release of plant food and well ad vanced crops were running short nematodes are around this year too they usually work in patches with oats and barley turning to a poor color and growth almost at a standstill all of these problems are at their worst right now as the soil warms up more and the plants gain some strength the effect of diseases and insects is offset some by the strong healthy plants left an item on the brighter side this week concerns the superb performance of a sow in king township no question about the virtue of motherhood for this proud bacon basket owned by ross folliott on the sixth concession she came through with twentytwo of a family in one sitting putting to shame most of her contemporaries who are satisfied with eight or ten so a tip of our hat to her for showing the way in higher yields and bigger volumes factors so vital in the farm business basis pending the arranging of a suitable rental fee and the taking out by mr murby of sufficient liability in surance to cover any damages that may be incurred several county mem bers had certain reser vations about utilizing forest lands for this pur pose wallace donnell deputyreeve of north gwillimbury pointed to the fact that drainage from that point flowed north to lake simcoe norman barnard deputyreeve of whit church wondered whether lands used in part for recreational purposes should be made available for acceptance of waste an engineer from the office of the dept of agriculture said the sandy soil in the forest made for excellent absorption he said other methods of disposal had been con sidered but none proved adequate a h rutherford deputyreeve of vaughan took the side of the duck farm operator and farmers in general he said fer tilizer was badly needed on most properties a practice that served a twofold purpose a benefit to the lands and a means of disposal for the farmer he warned against placing too many restrictions against agriculture since the in dustry itself was already facing many problems at the conclusion of the discussion it was agreed that the matter should be referred back to com mittee for further con sideration youll our values sl915 bar reg 16995 13995 pl 4 15 bar re 19495 14995 pl 5 19 bar reg 21995 15995 pl 55 19 bar
