However, it was the first of May before the vast majority of farmers were able to get at the seeding. With the weather now fa­ vourable, long hours on tire tractoi' will be the order of the day until seeding is completed. This can be a tedious, mon­ otonous job or it can be a time for meditation on many things. Just the other day While I was riding the tractor I re­ membered an article I had read of the advantages o<f sowing our craps in /the proper alignment With the magnetic field. Un­ fortunately I don’t remember that the article made it clear whether we sihould sow north and south or east and west. For most of us, if this is really as .important as the article made out, we should' find out at har­ vest time. With so many of the farmers sowing their grain around the field they should be able to see a distinct dif­ ference in the yield when they are combining. Funny they did­ n’t notice it before. Perhaps, for the most of Huron County we will have to sow cornerwise in our fields Since our farms are not laid out due north and south. Won’t that.'be hum-bug? Now you can think about it while the tractor roars. s Then my mind -turned' to- the state of government, 'The nu­ merous elections have brought no change in actual govern­ ment policy after four elections in.less than ten years. The fu­ tility, frustrations, the scan­ dals, intrigue, and manipula­ tions have taken place regard­ less of the party, in power or size of majority. Mora recently the serious im­ plications' that have been directed against our laiw courts are most disturbing. Most re­ cently it has come to my at­ tention that a similar situation probably exists in our provin­ cial government. .■ Apparently James I. McIntosh, Clerk, RR 3, Seaforth, Ontario.Matter of Principle Governments! J. Carl there is considerable evidence that there .Jias been “influence peddling” by a campaign fund worker of the Provincial Con­ servative Party. This is a matter that govern­ ment could clean up1 immedi­ ately. An investigation could be directed but this the Onario government has, to date, refus­ ed to do. It its a serious matter. If our government is- willing to sell favours to obtain abun­ dant campaign ■ funds, democ­ racy is lost. Has a serious dis­ ease infiltrated our govern­ ments? What can be done about it? Should we apply modern farm­ ing technique to our govern­ ments? In the earlier days of broiler production, producers who had capacity far 10,000 birds, felt that it would be a good idea to ■have ten pens in his broiler house. He put in 1,000 baby chicks •at 10 week intervals'. In this way he would have, an income five times a year. It didn’t work. Disease developed Was transmitted! to each batch of chicks that brought in. It was impossible to get Hemingway leader occasionally, who chang­ es a few cabinet ministers but the old disease of corruption and patronage soon infects the new members. Let’s apply the practical' principles to government that hiave proven successful hi farm­ ing. Let’s have an “all in — all out” program in government which will probably mean put­ ting a new party in power, per­ haps every year or .so.ft has been said that “Power corrupts, but complete power corrupts completely. WOOL JACKSON ALUMINUM LTD. and new was It was impossible to get the disease out of the building since disinfecting the one pen that was empty left it in the rest of the building which im­ mediately infected the new batch of chicles. .The. same thing happened with larger hog feeder's and to a somewhat less­ er degree With beef feeders.. Farmers overcame this prob­ lem by what they call , an “all in — all out” program. That is fill your broiler building com­ pletely with baby chicles, battle the disease problem as best you* can, sell all the broilers when ready'for mlarket. Com­ pletely dean up the building and the next bunch starts with a'clean sheet. In government we have dung tenaciously to the old1 system-.

"Atrazine is a good product to work with because it is so safe," according to Austin parnall, who plants 600 acres of corn. ,"We've never had any damage with it. In '65, we used Atrazine \with oil and sprayed around the middle of June when the weeds were up about an inch. It burned off the weeds pretty fast and gave good control through to harvest with no culti- ■ vations." Stressing the safety..of..Atrazin.e, Mr. Parnall reports:,"We've never had any problem’from'residues when following treated corn witrf soybeans on my farm," ‘ . Mr. Parnall goes on to say "In the future we will not use oil with the Atrazine because for the best results I believe Atrazine should be used as soon after planting as possible (early May) for more moisture." Start using Atrazine this year—discover how profitable corn production can be.
