The expected returns from money spent on fertilizer Must be compared be- tween crops or between fertilizer and tile or cattle. The whole crop production operation or level of management should be consider- ed. "Good practices plus timeliness and high fertility yield best re- turns. Supplement manure with 20 per cent superphosphate; use the cheapest method or material .that will do the job." Mr. Murray concluded by say- ing that by planning on paper the farmer will gain perspective and will be able to compare alterna- tives; and he added that it is most important to keep good re- cords. "For winter feeding of cattle go- ing to grass for finishing," said William McBride, associate agri- cultural representative for Bruce County, "generally a ration based on good roughage, and as much grain as necessary to produce about one pound gain a day, will result in closest to maximum pro- fits.

Forums Agree Need Standards For Machinery Fireside Farm Forum met Mon- day evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Alex Riley with 13 mem- bers present. Discussion was on Profit or Loss With Machinery. More standardization of machin- ery is needed, the group felt. The parts we would like to see stan- dardized are binder guards, sec- tions, mower knives, standard size wheel bearings for all machinery, power take -off shafts and chains for wheels. They felt there should be more standard equipment on the market. The style of farm machinery makes it dearer to buy, especially tractors. Style and ap- pearance are of no help to the farmer's pocketbook, the group said. The manufacturers shouldn't change styles and patterns of machinery, as parts then would be more interchangeable for more years. They also felt there should be warranties on the equipment. Honest men only should be allow- ed to sell expensive machinery. Some machine agents charge dou- ble price for their repair parts than others, the forum said. Hugh Flynn invited the forum for next week. Winners at games were: high, Mrs. Donald Buchan- an and James Howatt; lone hands, Mrs. Alex Riley and George Car- ter; consolation, Mrs. Harvey Tay- lor and Donald Buchanan. Parcel Post Rates Are Increased An increase in parcel post rates became effective on March 1, ac- cording to Postmaster Orville Oke. Main• feature in the new rate structure is the elimination of the reduced rate for parcels being mail- ed within a 20 -mile limit. Parcels mailed to any address within a province will now require the same rate of postage. • Details concerning the new rates are available at the Post Office. The March meeting of the Sea - forth WI will be held at the resi- dence of Mrs. J. Doig on Tuesday afternoon. The meeting will fea- ture historical research and cur- rent events, and will be convened by Mrs. J. F. Scott and Mrs. A. -Crozier. The roll call will be an- swered by a notable event of the past year. Exhibits of old• school books will be featured and members are asked to bring examples from their homes. A special invitation is extended to grandmothers to attend. The motto will be, "All the flowers of tomorrows are in the seeds of today," and a history of Northside United Church will be presented.
