Net $3,000
From Farm?,
A farm economy expert said
recently a well - run 125 -acre
farm should return an annual
$3,000 profit after operating
costs, household expenses except
groceries and automobile ex-
penses.
Prof. A. C, Robertson of the
Ontario Agricultural College de-
scribed a properly proportioned
farm as leaving 50 per cent of its
investment in land and build-
ings, 25 per cent in livestock, 15
per cent. for depreciation of
equipment and 10 per centor
feed. He said such a farm
should have $12,000 in sales
annually.
''filie professor was • speaking to
'Ontario farmers at the OAC -an-
nual Farm and Home Week: He
Said if there were two families
on. a farm of 125 acres, the in-
come should be $16;000 with
expenses between $10,000 and
$12,000.
"A modern farm of this type
t would represent an investment
of about $50,000 in ni:any areas,
s" -running higher in districts where
land prices are higher," Prof.
Robertson said,

Comments.
On Pipelines
This Is a very. troublesome
problem to many counties in
southern Ontario, Soine counties
have as many as seven lines
crossing them at different loca-
tions. While we are agreed that
pipelines are necessary to the
march of progress they could
be less objectionable if a little
organized planning was done in
advance.
To reduce the damage to farm
land elle lines of different com-
panies could be run side. by side
in one location and it would be
possible to use a much larger
percentage of less' productive
land.
The company's first step in
gaining a right of way is to ap-
proach the township council with
a very juicy offer on damages
and tax grants for permission to •
cross the township • reads. On the
.strength of this, the Provincial,
Fuel Board, consisting of two
lawyers and a geologist, takes the
attitude .that the community ap-
proves the pipeline and is quite
willing to approve expropria-
tions of the farmers land if he re-
fuses the company's offer for a
right of way,
The Federation of Agriculture
is requesting legislation stating
that the company must advertise
the route of a proposed line local-
ly before seeking leases. Also
that a public hearing, for those
directly affected, must be held
locally.
-We, in Huron, have not had
this problem to meet but we are
told that within five years gas s
lines will be spreading through-
out the county. We can't and
wouldn't keep them out but good
farm land is getting scarcer by
the year. Time and effort could
be well spent if we could cut >a
this destruction to a minimum
by a little foresight, if any of

southward and have seen these
lines under construction you will

Destroy Barberry
To Eliminate Rust
Stem rust of grain and leaf
rust of oats which cause so much.
damage to crops, would cease to
be a problem if the Common
Barberry and European Buck-
thorn were completely destroyed,
says the Field Crops Branch of
the Ontario Department of Agri-
culture.
A rust spore overwintering an.
s, straw, or other refuse can
produce only one infection on
grain the following year unless a
host' plant is present. In that
event when the spores. open up in
the .spring they are deposited on
the new leaves of Barberry or
Buckthorn plants where they are
multiplied a enillionfold and wind
borne to fields of grain,- This
red rust, when, once established
will go on to infect other, fields
of grain at great" distances from
the original infestation.. .
The common Barberry is ,g
perennial shrub growing from
four to twelve feet in height, re-
produced by seeds oand shoots
from the wide -spreading roots.
The leaves have saw toothed
edges and at the base of the leaf
stem are three or more spines.

European Buckthorn is a shrub
or small tree varying consider-
ably in size and commonly grow-
ing in fence rows or woodlots,
Short thorns are to be found at
the tips of branches and on the
stems. The leaves are dark green
and do not fall until late in the
autumn. The berries are green
in summer, turn black in the.
fall and remain on the tree for
most of the winter. The seeds
are eaten by birds and the plants
spread in this manner.
When present in large numbers
a tractor or a bulldozer can be
used to uproot the shrubs quick-
ly and cheaply. Cutting is not
recommended, since new growth
appears rapidly. Sprays are also
effective, and some work has'
been updertaken using the basal
bark method.

pean Buckthorn have both been
added to the list of noxious weeds
under the Ontario Weed Act and
