Southwestern Ontario fanners get into fields and harvest corn early Mike Hensen Postmedia Network Southwestern Ontario farmers are getting into the fields and harvesting corn early this fall, and that's a very good thing. An early harvest means getting the crop off before the snow flies and wet weather makes the fields too wet and muddy to easily work with heavy farm machinery. Jason Wilson, who works for Bolton Farms, was har- vesting corn Monday and said the harvest is, "going very well, very well, we've just started into corn, and have about 150 acres off, averaging about 200 bushels an acre." Wilson says the corn is in good shape, "it's drying down pretty well, between 24 and 28 per cent moisture which is very good for this time of year." The early start is good news for farmers, "getting an early start is always good, we're always worried about snow in December, last few years we finished in mid-December, so getting it in this early is a real bonus," said Wilson. Compared to last year's "crummy" harvest, this year's is much better said Wilson. Last year Wilson said, "we didn't really have a hot sum- mer," couple that with a wet spring that didn't allow the farmers to get into the fields to plant their corn early, lead to a 2014 most farmers want to forget. 2015's harvest might help ease the pain. .ea ort uronex.ositor.co 6 SEAFORTH OPTIMISTS 2015 TRAVEL THE WORLD & CASH LOTTERY WINNERS OCTOBER DRAW TRIP VOUCHER TO LAS VEGAS Scott & Lisa Jervis $100 CONSOLATION • Ralph Smith • Joan Bridge Call 1-866-734-9425 or visit www.medicalert.ca O MedicAlert Lets You Live Life. 499th Annual Egmondville United Church 1 TURKEY SUPPER Wednesday, October 28th Seaforth & District Community Centres Takeouts available 4:30 — 6:30pm • Eat -in 5 — 7pm Adults $15 6-12 $5 5 & under free '\I kik Tickets available Pete's Paper Clip, Blooms'n Rooms & congregation members We sold out last year!
