Home gardeners tend to skip over this procedure be- cause it seems rather inconven- ient. However, if you are start- ing annuals from seed, there are many advantages to using ster- ilized soil, says D.B. McNeill, horticultural specialist, Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food. All soils contain dormant weed seeds that will grow under the right conditions. By ster- ilizing the soil, the number of weed seeds that germinate will be greatly reduced.

The easiest and most con- venient method to sterilize soil at this time of year is in the oven. Preheat your oven to 180 degrees. Place a pan of moist soil in the oven for 20 minutes, then let it cool to room temp- erature. Transfer the soil to spots or plant boxes and sow the seed. Other methods can be used, such as pouring boiling water through the soil or using chemical sterilizers. These methods work well but are best done outdoors. • MOM OM MEMO MOUE WOOCM OMPM0 MOO= MEM MRIEIWWM it O MMO EOM PMEM ©Mrs] MEM MEW MEM MEM MUM WE GIME MEOW num E©HOC] WOMB OMMOM EMEMM MUM CEMMC 30.

Miss Farrow EGMONDVILLE U.C.W MEETS Mrs. Jessie Gray introduced the Study Book on India by giving a most interesting account of her visit there, when the March meet- ing of Egmondville U.C.W. was held. "India" , she said, is about one third the size of the United States, with 500 million people living in the Great Central plain, New Delhi is the capital city. There are three seasons in India - dry, wet and a short winter". "Nowhere is there such a span between those who have and those who have not," she stated. "In India houses have no doors and in poorer sections the whole front of the house is open with furniture a scarce item. Women of the poor classes labor in the fields doing most of the heavy work," she' continued, "carry- ing loads on their heads and backs." "There are many clever craftsmen in India, the work being done by hand - brass and silver, weaving, wood-carving and rug-making, to name a few but the pay is very small," she said. "The women of India are most graceful in carriage" she stated, and modes of travel are by foot, bicycle, horse taxi, camel or water buffalo, the wheelbarrow, trucks and automobile by the more well-to-do. In conclusion she said, "India is a challenging country and efforts are being made to help the people help themselves in agri- culture and food, medicine and water resources. The wealthy of India are becoming interested in thetrfellowmen of lesser means and knowledge". Mrs. Earl Papple was in charge of the meetinL. Miss Mae Smith and Mrs. Papple gave reports of the recent Presbyter- ial held in Northside Church. Mrs. Leonard Strong was named regional president for Central Huron at that meeting. Mrs. Charles Eyre and Mrs. Strong• were in charge of de- votions and Mrs. Newman Gar- rett read two poems.

To help young people: a) develop an appreciation of agriculture and the major role it plays in community life. b) develop self-confidence and the ability to work with others. c) develop a sense of responsi- bility and qualities of leader- ship. d) acquire the habits and attitudes necessary for a satisfy- ing home and community life. e) acquire knowledge and skills of modern agriculture. On March 10th through to March 23rd, most of the 4-H Clubs in Huron County will be organized. 4-H Clubs are open to girls and boys who have Criticism of Ontario Hydro was voiced when about 75 persons at a public meeting in Brussels Legion considered plans of Hydro to obtain land for a pose: ,:orridor from Douglas Point to Seaforth. Huron Bruce MPP Murray Gaunt suggested Hydro used "power play tactics" by putting one farmer against another in an effort to obtain cheaper land. The meeting was called by the Huron-Bruce power line ne- gotiating committee, made up of farmers and some Ontario Federation of Agriculture members who banded together to bargain with Ontario Hydro. Ontario Hydro is currently acgairing land for a power cor- ridor which would stretch from the Bruce Nuclear Power De- velopment at Douglas Point east- ward to the Chepstow area and south to Seaforth. Farmers claim that the corridor, ranging in width from reached their 11)th birthday by January 1st, 1073 and have not reached their list birthday by December 31st, 1973. dubs offered are as follows: 4-H Beef or Dairy Calf Clubs; Feed and care for one calf during the club year.
