they met St, Mary s end Mit-

tatives from the Perth Con-
ference.
Playing Mitchell, the boys
could not get on track and as a
result were edged out, When
meeting a strong St, Mary's
team (who went on to win the
championship) they put up a
good struggle but were still
defeated.
At the end of the day, the
boys bad accumulated a total
of five wins and five losses.
They ended up in fourth place,
one game behind Listowel.
The boys are to be
congratulated for a fine
showing and they would like to
thank Mr, Allen for his fine ef-
forts as coach,
There's strong evidence that
nature needs help if farmers
are to stay in business, accor-
ding to results of a study being
made at Kemptville College of
Agricultural Technology.
"Our experiment shows that
corn crop yields drop off
drastically when no
agricultural chemicals of any
kind are used," reports J.S.
Gardiner, an agronomist at
Kemptville.
A sandy loam field, in a good
Canadian dairy farmers, who
have been facing a steep rise in
the cost of production, will
begin receiving much higher
federal government subsidy
cheques within a few days.
The Canadian Dairy Com-
mission has calculated that the
total of monthly cheques for
August will be close to double
the normal amount.
The increase, which amounts
to about $10 million, comes
from two sources.
First, the federal government
provided a temporary direct
subsidy to farmers of 56 cents
per hundred pounds of milk, ef-
fective August 1. It applies to
all of the manufacturing milk
and cream a farmer ships un-
der his market-sharing quota.
Second, the Canadian Dairy
Commission has altered its
method of payment on quotas
to more closely reflect
producers deliveries, This will
give producers an additional $5
million this month,
These payments are intended
to provide dairy farmers with
much-needed cash so they can
lay in feed they will need to
keep winter production up to
meet consumer demand for
dairy products.
Details about how the
payments on quota are being
applied are being sent to all
dairy farmers along with their
September subsidy cheques.
The change will mean that far-
mers may receive payment on
up to 60 percent of their quota
by the end of August, and on up
to 70 percent by the end of Sep-
tember, and will collect
payment at the rate of five per-
state of fertility, was selected
for the test. Five plots were
sown with corn of the same
variety and each plot was ten-
ded in five different ways,
One plot was grown without
fertilizer or weed control
materials; a second plot was
fertilized only; a third plot had
herbicide applied exclusively; a
fourth was treated by a com-
bination of fertilizer and her-
bicide while a fifth was both
fertilized and cultivated. Where
cent per month of their annual
quota from October to March.
a plot received a treatment of
some kind, the specific treat-
ment was repeated four times
during the growing season,
The results are dramatic.
The plot in which 'nature
received no assistance (no fer-
tilizer or weed control material
of any kind) yielded 32 bushels
per acre of corn. The value of
this crop, based on a corn price
of $1.50 per bushel, was $48.
But the cost of producing the
corn in this manner was $46,80,
leaving the producer with a net
gain of $1,20 per acre.
In striking contrast was the
plot treated with a combination
of fertilizer and herbicide. It
produced 113 bushels per acre
for a value of $169.50 for that
acre of corn. Production costs
using this method were $83.87,
leaving the producer with a net
gain of $85.63 per acre, the
highest net gain of the five
production methods featured in
the experiment,
The "fertilizer only" plot
generated a net gain per acre of
$57.20, the plot both fertilized
and cultivated drew a net gain
of $59.75, and the one treated
only with a herbicide produced
$82.13.
"These results underscore
what any good farmer already
knows," concludes Gardiner.
"If he's to stay in business and
produce food at a reasonable
cost, nature can't go it alone. E, BASE T
