bers of society must be con-
cerned about pollution. He' 'em-
phasizes that pesticides are ban-
ned because they are thought to be
a danger to the .environment, or'
to wildlife or to the consumer,
Says Mr. Hill: "We farmers
do not want 'to endanger any of
these groups, but if one pesti-
cide is banned this will 'mean
that more expensive or less ef-
fective chemicals will have to
be used which will increase pro-
duction:costs or reduce produc-
tion efficiency which puts us at
a disadvantage."
He concludes that Ontario far-
mers must hot be.harassed by.
panicky regulations. He states
that farmers must not be placed
at .a major disadvantage com-
pared with competitors in Other
countries or 'other provinces,
The Middlesex Furniture Co.
plant in Strathroy ha's had more
than the usual number of visi-
tors since Its new boiler went
into operation, a week ago. _
' It's called a waste heat boi-
ler , and' the reason people are
coming to see it 'is because it
'burns solid fuel and waste with-
out discharging • any smoke, a•
positive step in the fight against
air' pollution.
Although t s type" of oiler
has been in ti e in Britain since
1962, it is sa d to be the first
installation of i s-kind in' North-
America. ,
More, than a ear ago Mid-
dlesex Furniture rfeallied it
would ; have to replace the boi-
ler in its_steam heating systeM.
.The old .ve, Second-hand, was.,
installed in. 1909, said Mel John-
ston, superintendent.,
Company officials• at first
copldn't find a manufacturer who
would provide a satisfactory re-
placement. The company had a
three-ibld problem - to provide
" heat for, the plant 'end dry the
wood-for the furniture as well
,as dispose of the wood waste.
'Regulations prevented open bur-
ning of the waste.
Mr. Johnston estimated it
would have cost the firm $15,000
a year to haul away the wood
shavings and other waste. This
would be in additibri to the cost
Of a new boiler.
Then the company ,found what
it feels is the answer to the prob-
lems.
• The ne-w:boiler was rride• by
Robert Bell Industries .of Sea-
forth, under licence from the
British manufacturer. It cost
$32,000. '
It burns both wood waste and
any additional amount ; of coal
required for heating. The manu-
facturer has told Middlesex Fur-
niture it won't pollute the, air
U WS operated properly.
The concept is simple, said
.t. R. MOtt, Toronto consulting
engineer who is involved in mar-
keting the boiler inNortaAmeri-
' ca. 'The fuel or waste material
is burned in an air-tight corn-
' bustion chamber.
'"No air is allowed into the
furnace, except air .that is me-
tered into it", said Mr. Mott.
This results -in absolute con-
trol of whit goes up the smoke
stack and into the atmosphere.
"When the air is shut, off,
there is no air infiltration to
.allow parts that are not .cOm-•
pletely burned to. smoulder and
send .smoke up the stack."
Mr. Johnston said his firm
has, had nothing but co-operation
from government air pollution
control officials who approved
the new installation.
