Are teen,agerS satisfied with the television Prograres pre- Seated by the.CBC? Here are just a few opinions expressed by Slligh students; Norma Weigand, 10E: The CEO is doing ,a :good job. They nave some interesting shows, for example, "Biography", which helps in school work Margaret Heist, 10A.; Yes, the CBC is doing a good job but some of the better educa- tional programs should be broadcast earlier. John Elder, 11B: The pro- grams are good most of the time, There is enough variety in the types of shows presented. Aim Fairbairn, JOA: There should be more educational pro- gramS on earlier, On days like Sunday when people can watch more television more teenage debates should be broadcast. Some of the Canadian plays shown don't make much sense. There should be more Shakes- peareanplays presented, Grace Eagleson, Special Commercial: Some programs for example, Festival, make no sense. I appreciate shows from other networks more than those from the CBC, Bruce Horton, 1213: I doe't especially like some of their programs for example, "Fes- tival" because they are too high-brow. Cam Witmer, 11C: No, I don't think the CBC does a good job. I don't like "Festival" and other such programs. Judy Arnold 10E: I don't like programs CEO presents. Any enjoyable program, for ex- ample, "Hawaiian Eye" have been taken off the air.

Mr. Stewart said that a spec- ial research fund had been set up under the Ontario Research Institute to carry out continu- ing research studies in live- stock feeding and management. The association will encour- age and assist in the establish- ment of County branches; pro- mote the quality of beef cattle produced in Ontario; dissemin- ate information on the latest research developments; spon- sor programs to strengthen the industry; and co-operate with governments in legislative pro- grams pertaining to the beef cattle industry. Hon. William A. Stewart, minister of agriculture, has an- nounced the appeintment of E. A. "Ed" Starr, of the livestock branch, Ontario Department of Agriculture, as secretary of the recently formed Ontario Beef Improvement Association. Mr. Starr will supervise and co-ordinate the activities of the various county branches of the association, which already has representation in Huron and 24 other counties, The Ontario Beef Improve- ment Association was formed by Ontario beef producers fol- lowing a suggestion by Mr. Stewart that an association a- long similar lines to that of the Ontario Soil and Crop Im- provement Association would be of benefit to the beef producers of the province. Under the direction of Mr. Starr there will be close co-op- eration between the new assoc- iation and the Ontario depart- ment. Research activities and policies felt to be of benefit to the producer could be subjected to joint review and action. "The establishment of such an organization has many ad- vantages," said Mr. Stewart in making the announcement.

As soon as the calf is dropped, cut off the navel cord about 2 inches from the calf's body and soak the stub in iodine to prevent infection. 2. For the first three days leave the calf with the mother so it can get the first colostrum milk which helps regulate the digestive system. Milk to even pressure in all 4 quarters, but do not empty udder completely. Guard calf against draughts and dampness. 3. For the next ten days, keep calf in an individual pen.

The supply was short this year because of a smaller crop in the United States, where most of the Vernal seed is produced. What are the alternatives to Vernal? Narragansett is a good variety and some of this is available in seed stores. The Ontario Field Crop Recommen- dations Committee foresaw the shortage of Vernal likely to occur, and so added Narragan- sett to the Ontario recommen- ded list this year. Tests over the past 9 years at Ontario experiment stations and on 25 farms across the Province from 1958-1962 have shown Narragansett to be an excellent variety. It has not been recommended previously because it was not superior to Vernal and seed was generally in short supply and higher in price than Vernal.

Saginaw' rid Michelite 62 are small, white-seeded varieties. Steuben is a large-seeded, yel- low-eye type. Only alimited quantity of seed will be available this year, re- ports Dr. G. H. Clark of the fede- ral research station at Harrow. Saginaw, a vine bean, matures two to three days later than Sanilac and seven to 14 days earlier than Michelite. It is re- sistant to the prevalent strains of anthracnose and common bean mosaic. In tests, Saginaw yielded about three bushels per acre more than Sanliac. This new variety should prove useful in Huron, Middlesex, and Elgin counties. Michelite 62, also a vine bean, is three to four days earlier than Michelite, but is similar to it in most respects. Michelite 62 is resistant to the common strain of bean mosaic. Only some of the plants in the old Michelite variety are resistant. Steuben is a high yielder that was selected out of commercial seed of New York yellow-eye by plant breeders at Cornell Uni- versity. Much similar to the older variety, it is more vigo- rous, more uniform and abetter yielder. Steuben is not resistant to bean mosaic or anthracnose.
