the tribune thursday january 25 1968 page 7 shade trees damaged tractor accidents fatal to 13 farmers by worst ice storm fcsiit- spring lambs in mid winter although spring is still officially two months away a sure sign of better days ahead arrived recently on the property of lome almack claremont a pair of twin lambs are held here by daughter clare 13 staff photo controlled milk production may hurt some farmers a a wall agricultural rep for york county milk marketings was in the news again last week the move in the dairy in dustry to controlled pro duction has to be spread over a fair amount of time its a painful process to some producers and certainly forces changes in some farm operations last weeks changes for fluid producers were just modifications of plans al ready made pooling will be delayed until the first of march and the new quotas vill not be in ef fect until i hat date quota transfers howev er are governed by the nev quota policy as of fe bruary 1 tli penalty for produc ers not producing 90 of their quota will not talte effect until the first of juiie this change will be welcomed by dairymen here in york having trou ble keeping milk produc tion up with very low cuality hay another bit of good news was that quotas that change ownership along with a farm sale 0 lease are not subject to the 25 transfer assessment and its good to know from gordon taylor that all but one of our nearly 400 fluid milk farms in york county got an a ra- bv john bbadsuaw garden editor the devastating ontario ice storm of ten days ago was one of the worst on record particularly in the damage it did to our shade trees when an ice storm of this magni tude strikes the garden it separates the men from the boys as far as trees are concerned the ice causes extra heavy damage to fast growing trees such as weeping willows poplars soft maples and the like whose branches start to snap just as soon as the ice adds to the load theyre already carrying numerous trees will have to be replaced this spring just as soon as the soil becomes workable the next lew weeks is an excellent time to search through nursery catalogs and read some of the gardening books on trees and de cide which trees youll be planting id strongly urge that you get your orders in as soon as possible trees are in short supply already because of the housing boom of the past few years and the dutch elm disease the demand as a result of the ice storm will further aggravate that situation you wont go wrong if you decide to plant a linden tree tilia cordatai people of european origin may know- it as a lime tree its native to many parts of europe and has been grown in gardens for centuries both the greeks and the romans planted the linden trees along their streets not only for their majestic shape but for shade as well nearly every village in europe has had a plant ing of lindens at one time or another in the southern part of ontario the linden is unbeatable as a shade tree for the home garden i dont know of a better tree for street and city garden planting because of its remarkable resistance to fumes smoke and dust the lindens are very long lived have an attractive pyramidal shape and handsome heartshaped foliage the spicy frag rance of the flowers is an added asset one of the least grown trees in southern ontario gardens is the pyramidal english oak this striking vertical grow ing tree is not listed by every nursery but any trouble you may have in finding it will be quickly forgotten when you sef it growing in your garden its shape is exactly the same as the lombardy poplar but with none of its faults the lombardy poplar tends to grow very fast until it reaches maturity around 20 years of age and then gradu ally dies over a period of time on the other hand the pyramidal oak grows more slowly is more compact and lives for a great many years ive never seen ice snow or high winds damage this hardwood tree once the leaves turn brown in the fall they continue to cling to the branches until the next spring giving the trees a most attractive appearancethroughout the winter months during the summer the fine green is a joy to behold most oak trees and other hardwood trees are quite slow growers but the stately pin oak is the exception to the rule during the summer the foliage is rich green deeply cut and becomes a glossy copper color in the late fall everyone seems to like its symetrical pyramidal form and general freedom from insects and diseases height at maturity is anywhere from 30 to 40 feet the pin oak is one of the few trees that will grow well in heavy clay soils where the drainage is not the best one of the most popular shade trees over the past few years has been the norway maple here we have a stately roundheaded tree capable of withstanding smoke soot and other adverse growing conditions the leaves are dark green and densely cover the whole tree in the fall theyre most impressive as they turn a rich yellow and orange the norway maple is very hard wooded and seldom if ever breaks down in wind and ice storms ting in the latest classifi cation news from the canad ian dairy commission are of a more drastic nature iirsi very small produc ers of cream or industrial milk less than 12000 lbs will not be given quotas in 1968 producers who ship be tween 12000 and 50000 lbs per year will have to reapply for a quota whe ther they get one or not depends on the commis sion generally quotas will only be given to full- time farmers and those who depend on milk or cream for a significant pari of their income so the milk picture is shaky for those with beef herds who ship cream and for those with small dairy herds who sell milk only in the summer months the proving is done the profits are yours with starcross 288 chicks heres the top egg
