Benrniller artist, Jack McLaren, holds new crest for Camp Menesetung, the United Church's former
Goderich Summer School which was renamed last week at a reunion of camp counsellors, directors
and staff members in Clinton. The Rev. Glen Wright of Dungannon, camping chairman for the
church's Huron -Perth Presbytery, is at left and at right is Joe Snider of Goderich, camping business
manager garbed as Chief Menesetung.
What was once called the
Goderich Summer School, a
facility owned by the

United Church, has been
renamed Camp Menesetung.
The name change was
announced at a reunion banquet
for camp counsellors, directors
and staff held at Ontario Street

The site on Lake Huron,
three miles north of Goderich, is
used primarily for residential
camping programs for boys and

Beangrowers find Treflan
ensures effective weed control.
"With this new Treflan,
we can grow beans
on dirty land as well;"
says Ken Mailoux.
"Treflan gives me 100%
control of foxtail,
lambsquarters and pigweed;"
says Clifford Wildblood.
'treflen is giving beangrowers the weed control
they need to help lower labour costs and achieve
better profits,
Ken Mailoux of Comber, Ontario, found the
worst weeds in his soybeans were pigweed and
lambsquarters. Now "Treflan is controlling the
weeds very well," he says, "This year, because of
all the rain,- I haven't been able to rotary hoe, and
Treflan's really done the job for me."
Clifford Wildblood farms a fertile clay loam that
can really grow white beans and weeds - at
Chatham, Ontario. He's been using Treflan for two
years now "with very satisfactory results."
Clifford finds it pays to make sure Treflan is
properly incorporated in the soil before planting
time, And it's simple to do, "l work it in, disc both .
ways before planting . , , that's all," he says.
Treflan can help you achieve results like these.
