'ENPAqMENTS' You can do much to conserve moisture by using a mulch. The extra watering required will take up much of your gardening time and add alarmingly to your water bill. Should a drought continue, however, conservation of water will be an important consideration in itself. Your first watering should be given to the foundation and other plantings of trees and shrubs, for these are most costly and difficult to replace. Cultivate around each and lower the earth surface by drawing the soil around in a circle to form a dike. This may be filled with a mulching material such as peat moss and then water applied until it forms a kind of pool which will allow the moisture to seep in slowly to the plant roots. A root feeder or root watering device which can be purchased locally for a few dollars is a valuable asset for watering trees and shrubs; with this equipment the water reaches the roots immediately. Simply attach the hose to this device, insert it in the soil, turn on the hose and the plant is quickly watered. Should drought continue you might have to sacrifice a green lawn and concentrate • on watering the trees, shrubs and perennials. It is easier to patch a lawn with grass seed than to replace the hedge, roses or other Silage gas danger greater this year plants. A lawn will naturally go into a semi-dormant stage during hot weather but will turn green again as moisture and cooler weather returns. During dry weather when water is at a minimum it is best to eliminate the mechanical sprinkler except where there is no run-off. This means hours of standing with the hose, often during the darkness of evening, swinging the nozzle back and forth to avoid run-off. A relatively high percentage of the water applied to gardens and lawns during the summer runs off the ground and grass straight' to the drain before it penetrates into the earth itself. Try to avoid this by using temporary edging to the beds and soil dikes around such plants as tomatoes, dahlias and hedge plants. I would suggest that garden plants be watered in the folldwing sequence: (1) the cedar hedge, (2) evergreens around the foundation, (3) tomatoes, (4) dahlias, (5) deciduous shrubs, (6) perennials and vegetables and finally the annuals and the lawn. When to stop watering? ,For • most plants not until the cool days of late September; for evergreens not until the frost hardens the ground in late November. The backward spring and growing season this year has led to a dangerous problem relating to silage gases, particularly in haylage. Nitrous oxide, and nitric oxide are colorless, odorless and highly toxic gases that come from silage and form nitrogen dioxide when they mix with the air. Nitrogen dioxide is yellowish brown in color, has a sickly sweet odor and is also extremely toxic. These gases create a choking and coughing sensation when inhaled, and a sufficient concentration will cause partial paralysis to develop, and eventually death. Hal Wright, farm safety specialist, Ontario Deparment of Agriculture and Food, warns that it is of the utmost importance that farmers who recognize these gases leave the infected area immediately. An oxygen supply such as those used by scuba divers should be obtained, and the doors should then be taken out to the level of the silage. The gases are heavier than air, and opening the doors should ensure that gravity will force the gas down in a few hours, or in about one-half hour when a blower is used. Using a blower without opening the doors will be ineffective as this will merely disturb the air above the gas, while the gas remains at the top of the silage. There should always be someone on hand to help when the silo is first opened. It should also be remembered that the gases may form as soon as ensiling starts and may go on for 2-3 weeks after the silo is filled. They may then remain at the top of the silage until the silo is reopened. Farmers exposed to the gas at all without oxygen supplies should see a doctor immediately even though no effects are felt. Compressed air equipment is available at the School of Agriculture Engineering, University of Guelph, and is on loan to anyone in the area. Local fire departments might have such equipment, and it is worth paying the fire department to neutralize any problems that might occur.

To know we never said good bye, Will always bring regret, But the hearts that loved you daily, Mom, Are The Hearts That Won't Forget. Always remembered and sadly missed by husband Leonard and daughter Marlene. 29. BUSINESS OPP. FOR SALE: GARBAGE ROUTE, village of Zurich. For further information contact Ron Corriveau, Zurich, Ontario — 27-3 lb Did your hay go into the barn a little tough this year? If so, it would be wise to check it at least twice a week for the next month to ensure that it is not heating, says the Ontario Dept. of Agriculture and Food's Clinton office. Fire from spontaneous combustion usually occurs during the first two months after storage and Hal Wright, farm safety specialist, says that an easy way to check the temperature is to make a hay probe from a 10-ft. length of half-inch electrical conduit or' tubing. • A sharpened hardwood point -should be riveted to the bottom end of the tube and six holes of three-eighths-inch diameter drilled within the bottom six inches. A veterinarian's rectal thermometer can then be lowered on a 12-foot cord to the bottom of the completed hay probe and the temperature can be checked. A piece of sponge rubber should be used at the bottom of the tube to act as a cushion and prevent the thermometer from breaking. Push the probe well down into the hay and leave for 10 minutes. Pull out the thermometer and note the temperature. Watch for the following temperature "signposts'," 150 deg. — Entering the danger zone. Make temperature observations daily. 160 deg. — Danger! Inspect every fOur bouts to see if temperature is rising. 175 deg, rrFire pockets may be anticipated. Call the fire department pumper and wet down hay. 185 deg. — ItOmOVe the hay, The pumper should be available since flames will develop when air comes in contact with the hay. 210 deg, — Hay IS almost sure to ignite, BY A. 9, Ei.YClq-Pl At this time many gardens in Canada may be suffering, severely from drought. Abont the only plants that might seem to be withstanding it well are petunias, Yet, with the proper care and cultivation one can eliminate a lot of suffering from this cause and keep the garden going despite the severest of dry periods. One thing is obvious to visitors to the Plant research Institute's gardens in July. The perennials and annuals are growing as vigorously as they were in June and except perhaps for a slightly yellowed lawn the whole place often looks like an oasis in the desert. How is this accomplished? Mainly the addition of humus to the soil. People can fertilize and water their gardens all day long 'but that watering alone may not do much good unless ample humus in the form of organic• matter is present in the soil; for humus retains the moisture, locks in the nutrients and prevents leaching. At every opportunity organic matter in some form or another should be added to the garden. One can have a compost heap that is kept actively decomposing by turning or forking over at very frequent intervals. Each time you visit the woodlands, a bag or two or partly decomposed leaves could be gathered and placed in the trunk of your car for spreading over the border. By combining this with peat moss and vegetable peelings from the kitchen whenever possible, the soil will soon be improved beyond recognition. Of course, with the usual drought in July and August, organic matter notwithstanding, watering becomes unavoidable. When and what to water becomes a major problem. If a period of dry weather extends to two weeks without a good day's rain, some plantings will need water. If at the end of the fortnight's drought you water and then it rains, you have done no harm. Decide what plants will benefit most by watering and stick to a regular program for the duration of the drought or until your water supply runs out or is cut off. CAUTION: Workmen should not enter alone, or without ropes tied to their waists, since fire pockets may have developed and there is danger of the men falling into them. Long planks may be placed across the top of the hay for the workmen to stand on while making observations or removing the hay. Play it safe! Make a hay probe thermometer and know the condition of your hay mows. Slate crop program on farm in Kippen A "come as you are" twilight crops program will take place at Jack Peck's farm, 1.25 miles west of Kippen on Thursday, July 31, at 7 p.m. The directors of the Huron County Soil and Crop Improvement Association invite anyone who has an interest in field crops to attend. There will be an opportunity to see and uiscuss the merits of various oat and barley varieties and fertility in these crops, It will be possible to preview the progress of the white bean varieties, herbicide and fertility trials in advance of the Sunrise White Bean program to be held at the Peck farm on Thursday, August 28. Canadian Beefconsumption consumption is expected to rise to 2,605,000,000 pounds in 1980 say Canada Department of Agriculture economists, Cattle output will have to rise three per, cent per year to meet this demand. Hog marketing The number Of hogs Marketed through inspected and approved packing plants during 1968 was down 0,5 per cent from the previous year, when grading iotalled 84145,147 say Canada Department of ,igriculture officials. Farming by hand and hoe is almost a thing of the past. Today the emphasis is on machinery and skilled people to maintain expensive farm equipment. The three-year-old farm machinery mechanics course at the University of Guelph is at present the only program in Ontario filling this demand for skilled mechanics. The 20-month course is conducted by the Ontario Department of Agriculture and Food, and is open to young men of 16 or older who have completed Grade 10. The course covers the whole range of farm equipment mechanics, from welding and shopwork to hydraulics and electrical systems. A special feature of this program, Which consists of two 4-month sessions'and 12 months of direct in-job training between sessions, is that this practical work takes the form of ail allPrOntietshiP. These Technical einingcs in OntalriCes tax ,reduction Pyatein Were emphasized MS week in reminders, issued by the Department of Municipal Affairs, The system paid more than $120 million to horneoWners and tenants last year to ease the burden of local taxes, and Payments are under ,way for 1969, New informatIonal leaflets, available at department offices and municipal offices, remind honsehOlders, that the system in 1969 is much the same as last year but with these main changes: 1. If a tenant moves out' during the first eleven months of 1969, the landlord or his agent must pay him within 30 days the tax reduetion to which he is. entitled. The amount will be one-twelfth of the rebate for each month of tenancy. (Except for those cases, the deadline for payment of the reduction is the same as last year that is, December 31.) 2. A maximum of 50 per cent of municipal and school taxes may be excused through tax, reduction. In other words, a cottage or other low-assessment dwelling will not have all its taxes covered; the amount of The seasons for hunting rabbits, squirrels and game birds in Huron County have been announced by the Hon, Rene Brunelle, minister of lands and forests. The rabbit season — applying to European hare, cottontail rabbit and the varying or snowshoe hare — will be from Oct. 15, 1969, to Feb. 28, 1970', in Hay, Stephen and Usborne Townships only. The season will run from Sept. 20, 1969, to March 31, 1970, in the remainder of the county. Bag limits remain unchanged from last year. The daily limit on cottontail rabbits is six per day; no bag limit will apply to European hare or to the snowshoe rabbit. Open season for black, grey and fox squirrels will be Oct. 4 to Dec. 15 in. Hay, Stephen and Usborne Townships and from Sept. 20 to Dec. 15 in the rest of the county. The bag limit in all areas is 10 squirrels per day; the possession limit is also 10. reduction shall never be more than ,50 Rent PI the -total taxes. T.he Municipal. Affairs Department is. again .ipviting anyone with questions to check with its special information group, These officers handled heavy volume of inquiries. toward the end of 1968 and in the first weeks of this year,. Most of the tenants with complaints, however, turned out to be ineligible, (Roomers, for example, are not eligible for the tax reduction.) Of the ,200;000 households which were eligible in 1968, only a few hundred had disputes that were not readily resolved. Under the tax reduction system, municipalities reduce the taxes payable on residential property, The amount, based .on assessment and .the local mill rate, is between $30 and $70 in most cases, In Clinton, the rebate is $63.75, For home-owners, the reductions are allowed on their tax bills; for rented units, the landlords are allowed the reduction and are required by law to pass it on to the tenants. The province reimburses municipalities for the total of reductions. Open season for ruffled grouse, sharp-tailed grouse, spruce grouse and ptarmigan in Hay, Stephen and Usborne will be Oct. 4 to Dec. 15 and from Sept. 20 to Dec. 15 in northern Huron. Bag limit is five per day and possession limit 15. Hungarian partridge may be hunted in Hay, Stephen and Usborne from Oct. 22 to Nov. 22 and elsewhere in Huron from Sept. 20 to Nov. 22.

Sept. 20 to Dec. 15 is the season for pheasant in all of Huron but Hay, Stephen and Usborne where the season runs from Oct. 15 to Nov. 11. In the three townships, there is a three-bird daily limit and only one can be a hen. Shooting hours are 8 a.m. to one half-hour after sunset. Elsewhere the limit is three pheasants per day of any sex and the hours are from a half-hour before sunrise to a half-hou'r after sunset, • There' is no season for bobwhite quail in this county. ensure winter survival and subsequent production over a 3- or 5-year period or even longer. Thus, the farmer must manage his mixtures in such a way as to maintain his alfalfa or trefoil. What is the role of grass in Ontario's forage production programmes? As mentioned earlier, grasses are usually grown 'in mixtures. Here, they serve several useful, . purposes. In fields with variable drainage, they will grow and , produce in small areas that are too wet for alfalfa, and thus a complete stand over all the field is assured. A pure stand of alfalfa on such a field would have many bare areas that would become infested with weeds. Grasses can also help in maintaining a productive stand for a number of years. They do this by protecting the alfalfa during the winter, and by filling in areas where the alfalfa stand has become thin. Thus the grasses provide some insurance against crop failure. Because the grasses tend to fill any bare areas, they help to control weeds in forage mixtures. Pure stands of alfalfa require a systematic weed control programme. In terms of production, grasses will yield as well as legumes, but the cost' of the additional nitrogen fertilizer increases production coats. UhleSs or until the cost of nitrogen fertilizer is reduced, grasses grown alone. will not be used On large acreages. There are, however, certain situations where a farmer should consider a pure stand of grass. Ira areas where legumes Will not grow or will hot survive the Winter, grasses are the only alternative. There are no legumes available for low-lying, poorly-drained Sites, or for Sites that are flooded for part Of the year. Species such as reed canary grass do well on such sites. There May be other instances where legumes often winter-kill for reasons other than drainage, and in such cases grasses can be used.

CARDS OF THANKS AUCTION SALE Clearing auction sale of dairy cows will be _held for James Wilson, south half lot 4 concession 8 Morris Twp., 1 mile !earth and 1 mile east of Blyth on For farmers and other people involved in agriculture, the. word grass calls to mind lawns or old, neglected pasture and hay fields. Yet, grasses play an important role in agriculture. In mixtures with legumes, such as alfalfa, bird's-foot trefoil or clover, or when grown alone, they are used to produce pasture and hay on something like six million acres in Ontario. Yet they are largely ignored. At farm meetings and in the newspapers, whenever forages are discussed emphasis is usually placed on alfalfa or bird's-foot trefoil, or clover, while our major forage grasses receive little attention. Why are grasses overlooked? i• The grasses commonly used for hay Ad pasture in Ontario can be made to produce as well as a mixture of 4 grass and alfalfa, or as well as a pure stand of alfalfa. TimothY, bromegrass, and orchard grass are the most common used in mixtures, and are seldom grown alone. Groton alone, these species produce a pasture, silage, or hay which can be of good feeding value but is usually lower in protein than a mixture containing alfalfa or other legumes, On many Ontario farms, protein is in short supply and often mug be purchased. The use of legumes, either in a Mixture or grown alone, can reduce the cash outlay for, purchased protein supplements, but grass does not have this advantage. Unlike the legumes, grasses grown alone must be heavily fertilized with ,nitrogen for top production, While fegurnes have the ability to preidtice sufficient nitrogen for themselves and any associated grass,' th4 grasses themselves do not have this ability. The cost of this nitrogen fertilizer increases the costs of production. A third YeaSon for this neglect is that the grasses are Much hardier than the legumes. Orasscs are seldom Winter killed' under poor management.
