League was played last Thursday evening. Above, Nancy Fawcett are pictured to her right.
With the beginning of the
summer season Ontario's
highways will be carrying
hundreds of thousands of
motorists to vacation and resort
areas throughout the provinbe ---
and behind them they will leave
thousands of tons of garbage,
which will cost taxpayers over
$700,000 to clean up.
A summer drive in the
country should be a pleasurable
experience. But every year an
increasing collection of broken
bottles, cigarette packages, hot
dog wrappers, orange peelings
and any number of other items
of junk are thrown out of car
windows by unthinking
motorists.
Most of the people who
contribute to this "mess-up"
would quickly pick up any
debris found on their own front
New grading systemfor
The Canada Department .of
Agriculture last week announced
acceptance of the proposal for
revising the system of hog
grading in Canada. The proposal
was jointly recommended to the
government in mid-May by the
Canadian Swine Council, a
national organization of hog
producers, and the Meat Packers
Council of Canada, a national
association of meat packers and
processors. The new system will
become effective January '1 1,
1969, or sooner, if possible.
The new system is founded
on the concept of appraising hog
value as indicated by the backfat
and weight of the carcass. The
main change from the present
system involves taking two
specific backfat measurements
lawn. Yet the golden rule of
aesthetics goes out the window
with the rest of the garbage
when their obvious self-lnterest
,is not involved. •
It costs the Ontario
Department of Highways more
than $55 a mile in litter control
alone to keep its 13,000 miles of
King's Highways and Secondary
Highways neat and attractive.
During the major clean-up
period, the six month's between
May and October that's an
average expenditure of more
than $3,800 every day.
Littering is becoming a more
serious and costly problem with
increased volumes of traffic on
our roads and with the increase
in disposable packaging and
bottling.
The cost of combating this
nroblem may well exceed
hogs, announceid'
on each carcass, one at the
shoulder and one at the loin.
The depth of fat is combined
with the weight of the hog and
from this an index is developed.
The index will be used by buyers
in determining the price for any
category of hog in relationship
to the base price of the average
hog.
In recent years there has been
growing concern over the lack of
improvernent in quality of
Canadian hogs. The new system
is designed to pay producers for
individual carcasses more closely
to their intrinsic value and will
will stimulate swine
improvement programs as this
segment of Canadian agriculture
charts a new course as part of
the total livestock industry.
$1,000,000 in the very near
future unless people pitch in to
help keep roads clean. In recent
years an increasing number of
motorists have been fined $50
'under the Highway Traffic Act
for littering.
The thoughtless littering of
our roads can also affect our
own safety as well as the safety
of others. The hazard of broken
glass on the highway is a
potential cause of accidents
through tire blow-outs or by
causing motorists to swerve into
the wrong traffic lane. Large
pieces of paper may fly onto the
windshield, momentarily
obstructing the dirver's vision
and causing a panic situation on
heavily travelled roads.
The Department of Highways
maintains 280 picnic parks along
the highways and sets out more
than 1,500 roadside picnic tables
every summer. Litter barrels are
placed at each of these locations.
If motorists just held on to their
litter until they reached one of
these areas, the Department
could save thousands of dollars
in taxpayer's money every year.
Campaigns for motorists to
carry litter bags or containers in
their car have had some effect in
controlling this problem and if
more people would co-operate
public-spirited private
companies and government
departments who are taking part
in this campaign, the result
would benefit everyone.
As part of the anti-litter
campaign the Department of
Highways is providing free
plastic litter bags which are
available at all service centres on
the ' province's two major
freeways, Highway 401 and 400.

slim lead in the bottom of the
last inning to •defeat the Giants

inning on hits by David Clynick
and Barry Welsh.
The Giants closed the score
to 9 to 8 on runs by David

Proctor. Each team scored three
runs in the fourth inning. Barry
Welsh belted a triple to right
field, allowing three. runs to
score, and giving the Cards a five
run lead.
Coach Gerry ' Leeson of the
Cards had to make pitcher
changes in the fifth inning to
save the game.

If you're a do-it-yourself
painter or decorator,be wise,
wear safety goggles to protedt
your eyes. The Canadian Na-

warns that paint splattered into
the eye can damage the cornea.
Crop
Weather conditions up to the
Present have net been favourable
for the growth of corn or white
beans, There has been WO intleh
moisture in the last few weeks in
both eases, and not enough hot
sunny days- These conditions
have offset the early planting
dates of this year. If we continue
to get the heat of this week,
these crops will proceed
favourably and in most cases
pull out of any set becks due to
weather and/or herbicide
damage,
Haying has been hampered
considerably due to the wet
weather, bet the majority of the
farmers have taken in 50% of the
crop, A few hot dry days. will
increase this figure substantially.
Haylage production is increasing
in the County this year.
Spring grains in most cases
look quite favourable with most
barley and mixed grain crops out
in head.
Meat Care
RernoVal of excess bone and.
fat on roasts will make more
efficient use of storage space in
the home freezer- In addition to
taking up JeSS space in the oven
during cooking, boneless rolled
roast is easier to carve than a
roast containing a bone, point
out Food Specialists at
Macdonald Institute, Guelph,
It is important that meat
should be frozen as soon as
possible after aging and cutting,
advise home economists. For
this reason, if you are planning
to freeze large amounts of meat,
h ave them frozen at the
meat-packing plant before
'storing in your home freezer.
