A new oil furnace is in the process of being installed to be or Rodney oats will yield ten ,bush-els per acre more than any other standard variety, •reports the Field Crops Branch of ,the Ontario Dep- artment of Agriculture. Such in- creased yields, result throughout all, Ontario and under all soil and weather conditions. With 1,700, 000 acres of oats grown in Ontario in 1957, it can readily be seen that if everyone grew either Garry or Rodney, the yield would be in- creased; by more than 10,00,000 bushels. — In 1956 the average yield of oats per acre was 42.5 bushels arid in 1957 it had increased to 49.5 bush-, else per acre, While some of this increase may have been due to the better growing season in 1957, a goodly portion of it has been credited to the superior yield a- bility of these two varieties, stat- es A. H. Martin, Director of the Branch. iCharteristins of these two var- ieties are that the Garry is a medium tall, medium early, str- ong-strawed variety which is re- sistant to crown rust, while Rod, ney is medium tall, medium late, resistant to both crown and steili rust and inclined to have plumper kernels- than Garry •but, on the other hand, is 'several days later in maturing. Both varieties are highly recommended in. Ontario and because of their superior yield ability, -no farmer should be with- out an acreage of one or the oth- er. in use early in 1958. A vote of appreciation was extended to Miss. Mutch for her fine work as treas- urer, to F. Wagner as chairman of the building committee, to W. Straughan' for his interest in the progress of the- construction and to the Rev. R. S. Hiltz for his untiring effort and oversight in the completion of a much needed youth centre.

Hiltz, LIVE WIRE FARM votum The members of the Live Wire Farm Fbrurii met at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Hunking with 19 members and three 'child- ren present.
