If the nation's agricUltural
output of 1962 had been pro-
duced by 1939 methods, it would
have cost about $17 billion MOre

resources than the actual 1962
cost,
The kind of milk cows that
make money are under great
stress, so it's important that
they have 30 to 50 days of rest

Air pollution can be harmful
to crops as well as to humans.
In crops it causes poorly deve-

It can also retard growth and

Cutting hay at 1/10th bloom
produces top quality hay and
reduces the need for protein

Soil samples taken from fro-

Facts to remember

HEADS COMING
Howard Some, manager of
the W. G. Thompson R. Sons

would appear to be up some

crop in the area. "There's no
question about it," he stated,
"it's one of the finest we've
ever had in this area."
He added that the "exceed-
ingly good crop" was due in
part to the hot June r
and the ample rain fall of re-
cent weeks.
Cann predict e there was
probably a 40% increase in corn
acreage this year, noting this
may even be a conservative es-
timate. Much of the increase has
come in ensilage corn, as more
and more farmers appear con-
vinced that this is the most
economical way to raise feed.
They have been employing
considerable double shifts to
handle the pack and expect to
continue with peas until the mid-
dle •of AuguSt•
"The corn is looking quite
good too," he reported.
Farm groups
enjoy outings.
Huron County farmers and
4-H members have enjoyed
trips this week.
On Tuesday, accompanied by
Don Pullen, assistant agricul-
tural representative, the 4-H
Members took a bus outing to
London and St. Thomas. They
toured the University of Wes-
tern Ontario and many other
places of interest.
The Huron County Crop and
Soil Improvement Association
took their annual trip on Wed-
nesday through several town-
ships at the north of the county.
They viewed crops of special
interest and some of the test
acreages for new varieties.
Grass is the best soil con-
servation and soli building
agent. It also makes the farm
more attractive and profitable.
Feed costs for milk produc-
tion can be reduced 2Q to 25
percent through better use of
high-quality forages.
A. University of Minnesota
test showed cows milked four
times daily—at six hour inter-
vals—gave nearly eightpercent
more than cows milked twice
daily.
A ton of manure is worth
about $5.00 in its ability to
produce crops. It is usually
of maximum worth when spread
at a light rate of about five
tons per acre.
In terms of livestock gain,
early cut hay is worth $47 per
ton as compared to $50 per ton
for grain.
A good stand of grasses and
legumes is over 300 times as
effective in saving soil, and six
times as effective in reducing
run-off, as a clean-tilled crop
on the same kind of land.
During pregnancy, brood
cows need from 15,000 to 20,000
units of vitamin A per head per
day. A cow's need for vitamin
A nearly triples - and for pro-
tein, doubles - after calving.
Feed accounts for 55 to 70
percent of the cost of producing
livestock and livestock pro-
ducts.
ALL EXCELLENT
The local dealer went on to
point out he didn't know where
it would be possible to find
better crops than are being
grown in the Exeter-Hensall
area this year.
He defined this area in par-
ticular due to the fact the area
to the north and south of this
has been affected slightly by
dryer conditions,
"The wheat looks just as good
as last year," he said, adding
that last year's crop was con-
