Reseeding to corn could proie risky for two reasons: the winter wheat will already pave used up substantial moisture re- serves and this will reduce corn yields, and late planting for corn will add the risk of losing yields to fall frosts and wet harvest 'conditions. Sorghum-sudan is alternative crop for late seed- ing. There are few winter wheat fields that were already past the seed set stage whe n the frost hit, so quality damage will not likely be an important fac- tor. .0 The department suggested that if a farmer is in doubt„ contact your nearest federal gov- erement Research Station or ask the provincial extension person in, yekr, area /or an inspection and advice.

The Canada Department of Agriculture has offered the-full cooperation of its researchers to help southwestern Ontario farmers whose crops were dam- aged by recent frosts. The offer follows a tour of - frost-damaged crops•byAgricul. ture Minister H. A. (Bud) Olson on Friday. Mr. Olson met with more than 300 farme s, farrn organization represent tives and municipal representati es in St. Thomas on Friday to_di cuss the situation. Reeve Charlie Thomas, Of Grey Township was among those attending the nieeting and reviewed the problem in Huron riding with the minister. "The decisions for individ-: „nal farmers will be difficult, especially as to whether they should sit tight and wait for crops to recover, or rip. up fields and replant," he said. "We, cannot' make this de- cision for the farmer, but we can provide the best information available from our experience and research. "During the tour and public meeting, I was pleased to note• that provincial extension people have offered to visit farmers and to inspect their damaged, fields to help them determine the best course of action. "I have instructed our re- search officers and Research Stations in the area to give top priority tesopperation with these provincial extension people," Mr:Olson said. The Research Branch sug- gests the following general guide- lines for corn and winter wheat: CORN - If the growing point was still below the ground when the frost hit, the crop will re- cover. The vast majority of frost- damaged corn falls into this cat- egory. The growing point is gen- erally still below ground when the' crop is less than six inches tall. These frost-damaged plants will mature later, will produce a shorter stalk and the yield will be slightly lower. In fields where frost dam- age was spotty, harvest may-be delayed slightly until these frost- damaged plants mature. McCall family sponsors annual reunion
