start the ball roiling and surely
it did. Dressed in Kilts, 8/of
the group danced and sang ,in the
•Penthouse Bar to cheers, and en-
cores from, the audience. Three
days of lazying in the sun , • stioi-
ping, entertainment put all in a
gay mood to board ship on Mon-
day evening at 5 p.m. ,.
joining 600 other happy folk out
for a great trip.
Welcome aboard was given the
group in the Ritz Carleton Toom,
where friends were allowed,ta
come on board.and enjoy the
party. All were in a gay mood'
for so much' lay ahead.
Following dinner in the Champ-
lain dining room, passengers were
invited to the Grand Hall where
introductions took place. Cap-
tain C. A. Hoenderdos welcomed
all aboard and introduced his

something doing every moment

The midnight "buffet" or what
was called the "Great Destroyer"
was always well patronized by the
Canadian Group. Dancing to
three orchestras kept one busy, as
all were first rate. Promenade
Deck too, reminded'one of
Honeymoon trail at Niagara.

of interest: .Several of our group
entered the shuffleboard tourna-
ment. Others watched the hoise
races, attended.the theatre,

Most found the 88 degree .temp-
erature a trifle tiring and the
poverty a bit depressing, but the
pebple seemed so courteous, no
one minded.
Balmy breezes greeted us on
'board as we boarded the ship
again, that evening.

'LEGUMES
Some farmers face "a big decis-
ion regarding seeding down this,
spring. Seed is expensive and
some have decided to wait an-
other , year. However, it normally
makes more • sense to buy grain
'rather than forage because of the
'handling .costs.
Another reason for seeding
. down as soon as possible,,, is the
present , higlt cost of 'protein. We
sent in one sample of haylage
that tested 21% protein on a dry .
matter basis. At present protein
costs, haylage is worth from $40
to $60 per ton of dry matter. 'In
most cases, I think seeding down
as planned would be the best bet.
CAPITAL GRANTS
We still get many' receipts sup-
porting captial grant applications
that are not suitable to send in
for payment. It always results in
delays when receipts have to be
returned for correction.
The main faults are lack of
quantities on invoices' (boardp feet,
sheets of metal, number of hours,
etc.) and no signature.of the per-
son receiving the money. Also we
prefer to have the original rather
than the 'copy.'
BRUCE SOIL AND CROP
IMPROVEMENT
• ASSOCIATION
The new president of the Bruce
Soil and Crop Improvement As-
sociation is. Chas. Kelly, R.R. 5
Paisley. First Vice is George
MaXwell, Jr. R.R. 3 Chesley, and
second' Vice is Don Ahrens, R.R.
2, Elinwood.
The election took place at the
Annual Meeting in Formosa on.
March 14th.
WARBLES
I see the delegates to • the 'An-
nual Meting of the Ontario Beef
Improvement Association again -
turned down a resolution calling
for compulsory control of the
warble fly. That action ensures
that we will have to keep on talk-
ing about warble control and
farmers will have to keep on
pouring out the dollars to the
insecticide manufacturers.
. In the meantime, don't forget
to treat your grubby cattle this
spring. Most townships have a
subsidy program for chemicals
. and 'some are still spraying. You
should eontact your township
clerk if you are not familiar with
the policy in your township.

FEED TESTING SERVICE
As of April 1st, 1973, some

regard to testing feed at the Un-
iversity Of Guelph. The following
are the types of analysis avail-
able and their cost.
* Dry matter and Protein
$5 per sample. •
* Dry matter; Protein, Phos-
phorous, PotassiuM, Calcium,
Magnesium — $11.50 per sample..

phorous, Potassium, Calcium,
Magnesium, Manganese, Copper
and Zinc — $14.50 per sample.,
An additional analysis can also
be done for lead, sodium and
iron at an extra cost of $2 per

Testing "for: the various miner-
als will mainly be of value to a
farmer who is feeding only one
forage and especially to those on
an all corn silage program.

ture and Food Office, Box 1330,
