Disease cause BY MARE R Back in. September, we made mention of Stephenson PMI's which were manufactured in Clinton. Just recently, Mrs, Muriel Trott received a letter from Miss Doreen Stephenson of Thunder Bay, with reference to the pump article, Noting that Mrs, Trott's picture of the pump had been in the London Free Press, she contacted a friend in London with the result that the Free Press sent her a copy of the picture. Miss Stephenson's father, John Stephenson, was the builder of these pumps. She says, "I doubt if there were many farms in the Clinton area that did not have one of his pumps, As a small child I used to drive out into the country with him when he installed the pumps. However when windmills and iron pumps were no longer saleable, he moved his factory from the back of the lot to the front and made it into the double house on Huron. Street, and we lived in it for some time. J. A. Irwin (dry goods merchant) bought it from us. Our first home was the one well back from Huron and facing Orange Street, right behind what was the Salvation Army Hall. Then my father built the house beside the Hall and moved to that one. Grant Rath did live in that but I don't know whether he still does. We left that to live in the double house." She is the only surviving member of her immediate family, having lived in Thunder Bay (Port Arthur) since 1920. She also says she has always taken the Clinton paper and is so glad as she would not have liked to miss the article. We in this office were most A $150,000,000 small farms development program was announced Dec. 6 by Agriculture Minister H. A. (Budl Olson. The program is aimed at the small farmer who wants to stay in farming, but lacks sufficient acreage to develop a profitable business. Through a land transfer program, farmers will be able to use special credit facilities to buy the land they require to develop viable farms. Technical assistance will be provided under a federal-provincial agreement which is currently being negotiated in meetings of a recently-established technical committee. The program will also benefit those farmers who choose to retire or quit farming. Farmers who sell small farms will qualify for an adjustment grant which will be added to the selling price of their land. They can take the grant either in a lump sum or as an annuity. , They will have the option of retaining their farm home and an appropriate surrounding piece of land for as long as they wish, The federal government has earmarked $150,000,00 for the first seven years of the program, depopulating If diseases have been a serious problem, it may be a good time to consider depopulating and establishing a new swine herd, Hog prices are down now and the cost of good breeding animals is lower than in past months. The health of the pigs Which will make up the new herd is of major ireportante. There is little point in depopulating unless there will be a definite improvement in the health of the new herd compared to the Old one. Buy pigs from a herd where the health status is known, says Dr. P. G. Oliver, swine diseases consultant, Veterinary Services Branch, Ontario Department of Agriculture and Food. There are a number of S.P.F. (specific pathogen free) herds in Ontario enrolled hi the Certified Herd Policy for Swine, They are certified free of atrophic rhinitis and Virus pig pneumonia (enzootic pneumonia) by the Veterinary Services Braneh. They are the only herds in the province that have regulai clinical inspections and postmortem ekarii na ti on of heads and lungs of pigs in the, herds, In addition, the herds are free of lice and mange, and saline dysentery (vibrionic dysentery) is not a problem, interested to read her letter and thank Mrs. Trott for sharing it with us. * * * Have yoo ever seen a three-yolked egg? Mrs, A. L. Rodges has. She broke a medium sized egg into her frying pan the other day and three little yolks dropped into the pan to form a perfect clover leaf, They were the size of cherries. Mrs. Rodges asked a local Department of Agriculture and Food official how often this might occur and he said very rarely. At one time we were able to purchase double-yolked eggs at the egg grading stations but the eggs were larger in proportion. It would be interesting to know if others have had a similar experience, * * * Each year We hear of the Sunshine Sisters in connection with the Women's Institute. As we understand it, almost every member has an unknown "sister" who sends her birthday cards and remembers her on special occasions. This person is revealed to her at the Christmas meeting, On December 16, the identity of these people will be made known at the Institute Pot-Luck Dinner in the Agricultural Board Room when the guest speaker will be Father Kelly. * * * Tuesday evening, patients at the hospital were treated to Christmas music sung by members of the Magic Circle of the Wesley-Willis UCW. One visitor reported lovely carol singing and thought the ladies should be commended for their kindness and the pleasure given to the sick. This is an annual event for these ladies and we are sure they will be welcomed back in the future. "What we are proposing is a relatively new approach to tackle a problem that has been plaguing the agricultural industries of the developed nations of the world for several decades," Mr. Olson said. Economic forces have driven thousands of farmers off the land and into the cities and, at the same time, have promoted the evolution of big farms requiring a high level of investment in land, machinery, livestock and buildings. "While there is a need for some farm consolidation to take place, it would be unwise to allow the current trends to result in the domination of agriculture by a handful of giant corporate farms," Mr. Olson said. "Unless we develop new and workable programs, there are many farmers in Canada and, indeed, entire rural communities, that will be threatened if this trend should develop further. "Economic studies and practical experience suggest that the family farm is the best type of farm, and it is in this context that we have developed a comprehensive program to help the small farmers of Canada to develop profitable family farms," he said. swine herd Many of these herds represent an excellent source of pigs for a producer who is thinking about establishing a new herd, says Dr. Oliver. The health status is known, and all the major breeds are available, es well as outstanding Canadian and American blood lines, Performance testing data from many of the herds is recorded by the Live'Stock Branch, 1:11.. Oliver recommends the following steps when establishing a new herd; remove all pigs from the premises; thoroughly clean and disinfect all the bares; leave the buildings vacant for one month; repoliulate with healthy pigs from one healthy herd. If your house seems crowded and cramped and the current mortgage squeeze is preventing you from buying a larger home, the answer to your problem may be under your feet. According to the Canadian Hydronics Council, many people are looking toward the basement for an added room which can serve as a work and play area. There is one obstacle which must be overcome for this plan to work — the large, bulky unsightly, fuel-eating dinosaur, better known as the heating plant. The answer, advises the Council, is a new, attractive and compact boiler. Today's boilers are a far cry from those which were installed in homes 25 years ago. The new electric boilers, for instance, can be hung on a wall and, take as little space as a medicine chest. Gas and oil boilers are available in attractive, appliance-styled cabinets and are no larger than a portable dishwasher. Ontario St. UCW meets Mrs. F. McGregor presided for the Dec. 7 meeting of the Ontario Street afternoon unit; with 29 members and one visitor present. Mrs. Clayton Martin conducted the devotional period. Christmas carols were sung with Mrs. Harvey Johnston at the piano, Mrs. Arthur Groves gave the topic on "No Room." Mrs. Ernie Brown gave a wonderful description of a tour of Europe taken last July. Miss Sharon Coiclough entertained by singing two solos accompanying herself on her electric guitar. The Jan, 4 meeting will begin with a pot-luck dinner. Mrs. Reg Smith will be in charge of the program. Mrs. L. Lawson convened the refreshment period. BUYING? SELLING?
