Seaforth. Next, they met St, Mary s end Mit- chell, the one and two represen- 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.
