Agricultural tidbits with Adrian Vos With the higher food cost and the often painful realization that food comes before the snowmobile, farmers are getting a bit more attention from our, up till recently, mainly ur- ban oriented governments. It shows in one region where before, the concern was mainly expressed by farmers them- selves and their organizations. I am talking about land use. The two main farm organizations, commodity groups, the crop and soil association and others have urged all levels of government to preserve prime farmland. For the sake of a few bucks, (it's cheaper to build on level farmland than on rocky and hilly land,) the average for our food production has been made smaller year after year. After higher food prices, caused by threatened food shor- tages, suddenly the urban dweller, as represented by our governments, is reminded that food production has to come from the land. Whelan has said so, as has Steward. Now they are joined by such as Norman Pearson, a political science professor and David Estrin of the Canadian En- vironmental Law Association, by Ron Basford, Canadian minister of urban affairs and others. Maybe we will get some action to protect the farm and farmer from shortsighted greed.

M * * * It is possible to grow food without soil. I would hate to pay the cost for a hundred acres of corn though. However, Tom and Bill Loosley of Alberta grow tomatoes without soil. It is called "Hydroponics" and the soil is replaced by nutrient rich water in a gravel bed. This way they grow 240,000 lbs per acre. In Arizona they grow strawberries, chard, cucumbers :.tid melons with this method. * * This spread between what the farmers receives and what we have to pay to the retailer is growing. USDA reports that the price difference on beef was 39c per pound in July. In Oc- tober it had risen to 53c per pound. For pork the spread rose from 25c to 44c. One wonders who gets the extra profit. * * * Well folks, this is the last you'll hear from me in this year. I wish each and every one of you a happy and prosperous New Year, so you can pay us a decent price for our labors * and still have plenty left over for recreation.

In an exhibition game with Wingham on Saturday (Dec. 22nd) Clinton was on the short end of a 5.2 score at the end of the second period.

Three were solo efforts with assists on the others going to Graham, Cook Priestap.
