"There is always danger that
an automotive batter/ may
explode when using booster
cables around it if the hookup is
not made verreetlY."
Hydrogen, is emitted through
the vents in the cell cops. MY
electric spark can set off a
powerful explosion, and electric
varkp easily occur when making
4 connection to a battery, For
safety: Remove the cell caps
from both batteries, then attach
the booster cables to the live
battery. Next, connect the
appropriate cable to the positive
(plus) post of the dead battery.
Then, connect the second cable
to a good ground spot such as
the engine block rather than to
the negative (minus) battery
post, so that any spark that
occurs will not be near the
battery. (National Safety
Council).
"A frozen car battery can he
as dangerous as a bomb."
A battery that has been
weakened to one-quarter of its
normal charge will freeze at
zero, and a dead battery at 5
deg. above. When ice prevents
gases from escaping, a dangerous
explosive mixture results and it
needs only a touch of outside
electrical current to burst,
blasting off frozen chunks of
battery solution that carry
enough acid to burn skin and
clothing. For safety: Disconnect
the frozen battery and let it
thaw in a warm place. Pushing or
towing the car, or using a jumper
cable from another battery may
cause the battery to explode.
(Ontario Safety League)
"Several fires have been
traced to defects in recharging
devices."
Potatoes
& stones
Given a choice, it appears
that potatoes would choose a
few stones as companions.
According to federal
government research, the stonier
the field, the warmer "and more
moist the soil.
And that makes for better
growing conditions for potatoes.
Dr. G. R. Saini of the Canada
Agriculture Research Station
here says that stonier fields
produced higher potato yields.
His first experiments showed
that this was true on undine loam
soils, More recently, he has
extended his research to the
Monquart, Caribou and
Holmesville series of soil ,types.
"Results of these experiments
for the years 1968 and 1969
consistently showed that potato
yields declined when stones were
removed," sayeDr. Saini.
Dr. Saini's results offer a
double benefit to potato
farmers: first, they can save the
labor, time and expense involved
in removing stones and, second,
they can harvest bigger crops.
The problem of sorting stones
from potatoes at harvest time,
and of stone damage to tubers
will, however, remain.
Ah those lovely fresh
vegetables!. But to remove those
tiny insects that love them too —
soak the vegetables in cold salty
water for a while.
Cordless electrical equiPtlient
is fast beveling, the thing to have Around the bense. Batteries
are hermetically seated, there is
no leakage and they give off no
corrosive vaporp. They are
recharged by simply plugging
them into a whiner or an
ordinary wall socket, lose little
charge when allowed to stand
idle, and are relatively safe to
use, BUT, for safety: Owners of
a recharger should be sure it
car r ies an Underwriters'
Laboratories (UL) marker.
(National Safety News). FOr
Canadian manufactured
equipment be sure it carries a
Canadian Standards Association
(C.S.A.) or Hydro marker.
"Drugs ranging from aspirin
and antihistamines to
tranquilizers and antibiotics may
slow a driver's reaction time and
impair his performance behind
the wheel."
Dozens of drugs affect the
central nervous system in ways
that can impair driving ability.
Sleeping pills containing
barbiturates induce hypnotic
effects for up to 14 hours so
that the drug taken the night
before may be still at work when
you drive to the office in the
morning.
Mixing drugs is risky. Many
people take a tranquilizer in the
-morning. Then during the course
of the day they may gulp down
antihistamines for a cold,
aspirin, coh syrup and then,
after work,
ug
a highball or
cocktail. The effect of such
combinations .is unpredictable
and can be especially dangerous
for motorists, (Family Safety).
For safety: Don't drive if the
drugs you are taking cause
drowsiness, dizziness, visual
disturbances, vertigo and
lightheadedness. These effects
can contribute to driving hazards
and accidents.
"The amount of light
required by the eys of the older
driver doubles every 13 years."
A man of 42, to make out
objects at night as well as he did
when he started driving at 16,
needs four- times as much.
Darkness doubles danger. For
safety: Slow down at sundown.

The Annual Meeting ' of
District 8, Ontario Association
of Agricultural Societies was
held Wednesday, November 4, at
Dungannon with about 150 in
attendance.
Ed Starr, Director of the
Agricultural and Horticultural
Societies Branch, Toronto, was
the guest speaker. He made it•
quite clear he was not out to
close up any fair. Because a fair
is only a one day fair does not
mean it is not any good.
There are a good many three
and four day fairs which do not
provide as much for the
community as a one day fair and
Mr. Starr stated that he would
do all he could to help a fair in
trouble. Mr. Starr said "any fair
which is depending on
Government Grants to operate
will fall by the wayside because
' it won't last forever — a fair
must become self supporting.
Fall Fairs are outdated — they
have not kept up to changing
times. Either fairs will have to
update or fall by the wayside.
Good luck."
A panel discussion about Fall
Fair problems -provided
educational entertainment in the
afternoon" when' ,,,Roy Bennett,

Netted Gems
bake best
The Netted Gem is the only
Ontario winter potato that is an
excellent baker. A good baker
will hold its shape on cooking,
but at the same time it will he
soft and fluffy inside. The other
Ontario winter potatoes are ideal
for mashing, boiling or frying,
but for a good baking potato,
home economists of the Ontario
Department of Agriculture and
Food suggest the Netted Gem.
Huron Liberals crowded
Hensall Community Centre for
the annual dinner meeting of the
Huron Liberal Federal
Association.
Describing his visit to Huron
"like coming home" Hon.
Robert Stanbury, Minister in
charge of citizenship and
information Canada who was
guest at the meeting discussed
the difficult times in which
Canadians found themselves.
Mr. Stanbury was born in
Exeter and spent his early years
there where his father practised
law. •
Out of the country when the
war measures act was invoked by
parliament at the request of
Quebec, Mr. Stanbury said it was
difficult to appreciate the extent
to which he found the country
to be changed in a few days.
- Emphasizing that there was
no comparison between the free
action taken by parliament and
similar action in a totalitarian
state he said there was no
alternative to the adoption of
the Act. In the emergency there
was no time to draft and adopt
alternative legislation.
Referring to the difficulties in
Quebec, the speaker expressed
the hope that nothing that
happens as the result of a small
group of terrorists will ever
discourage those of us in the rest
of Canada from making changes
in Canadian society and
acknowledging the importance
of that province which he
described as "a great part of our
country".
The meeting adopted new
procedural bylaws presented by
D. J. Murphy, Goderich, which
