Last Wednesday evening the Huron Branch of the Ontario Crop Improvement Association held their annual Twilight Meet­ ing at the farm of George Merk- ley, Wroxeter, where were lo­ cated the Government test plots of cereal grains (oats and barley) and a Government hay pasture mixture laid down in 1952. This is only one of the farm projects being carried out in 195*3 under the chairman of the project com­ mittee, Allan Walper, Parkhill, (director for Stephen Township). These Twilight Meetings are rotated around Huron County. In 19 52 it was held at the Exeter District High School, in 19 53 at Mr. Merkley’s farm, Howick Township, and in 1954 it is ex­ pected to be held in Hay Town­ ship at the Elder Brothers farm, one mile west and one mile south of Hensail. It is felt that by ro­ tating the meeting more farmers throughout the county, all of whom are automatically members, will be able to attend and find out what is being done in these branches of farming. Professor Laughlan, Field Husbandry, O.A.C, Guelph, who has been in the Department of Agriculture since 191i0 spoke on th© test plots of oats which in­ cluded eight varities. Among them was the new variety Simcoe. This oaf formerly known as GAI4 is a cross from Erban — Ajax. It showed up very well. Not so rank strawed. per and Other were: Clinton, Ajax, GA19, Abe- Igeweit, Beaver, Erban, Roxton. Since moisture has been plenti­ ful this year all plots looked wonderful, but the weaknesses of each variety were much in evi­ dence. In his commentary on each variety Professor Laughlan made clear that if the farmer had an oat that was yielding well under his conditions, he should not be taken in by high pressure sales­ manship, so the past two geweit oat. studied plant reports on' this field is well aware that Abegeweit and Beaver are from same these being according to top yielding- tar io. with ience. In the profit barley fields was very much in evidence. He thought that one of the new barley crosses would eventually almost eliminate this, but up to the present time the research department have no variety not susceptible, although some are more resistant than others. I-Ie also stressed the need to obtain seed free from smut, another loser. This can only be done by buying registered seed which must pass rigid field in­ spection. The highlight of the evening was an address by Professor Ralph- Campbell, Chief of Econo­ mics Department, O.A.C.

His farm outlook will be in this column next week and is worth looking into. “Chick” Kingsbury, Weeds and Seeds Branch, Toronto, some interesting information garding the hay and pasture plots laid down in Western tario, under his charge, stressed good mixtures and tilization, Some farmers, he said, are disputing the t value of fer­ tilization this year, but figures show that over a period of years it pays to fertilize hay and pas­ ture in accordance to results shown by soil tests. Fertiliza­ tion, lie claims, pays off in more growth, higher feed value per acre with increased palatability.

The first stop was at the home of the old vet gardener, Art Davies, Strathroy. Mr. Davies was away on holidays but a tour of his garden with its arbors, greenhouses, fish ponds and dis­ plays of colorful flowers was most interesting and proved that every corner has decorative possibilities. Several members of Strathroy Horticultural Society joined the Kirkton on the hall. They garden boarded them to the Downham nurseries where Mr. J. W. Noble welcomed them.
