higher yields expected.
The research project, partially
funded by the Ontario Ministry of
Agriculture and Food, shows the
overall cost. of laying arid
removing plastic mulches is about
$560 per hectare ($250 per acre).
This cost- can be offset by
*premium prices `paid for earlier
produce which can replace
imports and provide local
stipplies•of high value, fruits and
vegetables.

Farmers with high value crops

Muskmelons • and watermelons
could benefit. most..
"Plastic mulches, are used
quite, extensively . in Florida,
California and Israel, and I think
we' should use them more in
Canada," says ProfeSsor Tlessen.
'Studies over the last seven
years show that a special
polyethylene or plastic film

time at Gairbraid with his books
and collection of rare botanical
tiants.
Galt. son of the first agent of
the Canada Company. pictured
himself a farmer and mouthpiece
for the settlers' grievances, but in
truth he was an idealist, a
member of the gentry and a poor
spokesperson for the ordinary
settler who was merely subsisting
w his Huron. Tract land.
Mrs. Galt, a member of the
same social circle as her husband,

Controlling
pantry
pests
Thoroughly scrub the cupboard
shelves which harbored the in-
sects with detergent and water,
checking all cracks and spaces
where crumbs can lodge. 'Then
use a stronger cleaning agent to
clean the whole area again. Let
the cupboard area dry out. Wipe
all packaged good carefully be-
fore reloading them into the
cupboard. Recheck cupboards in
a-day or two.
To help prevent infestations,
buy foods susceptible to insects in
small quantities. By doing this,
you will avoid having to store
these foods for long periods of
time. Store susceptible foods in
tightly-covered containers to pre-
vent insects from entering.
Always use up oldei packages
first. Keep the storage area'clean.
Remove any crumbs or bits of
food from shelves and crevices.
Check the cupboards regularly
and keep them as clean as
possible.
Certainy anyone's pantry can
be infested by insects. But they
may avoid yours if you use a few
sensible precautions.
