We didn't choose
Royden Higgs
because he was the
strong, silent type . .
Those were not the characteristics that prompted us to put Royden on our
staff. We wanted a man that could work all day in the heat, and then with
perspiration pouring from his brow, turn to a customer and offer a genuine
smile.
In fact all our staff has this same ability. We knew that this was some-
thing that our customers wanted and is so often lacking in todays modern
approach to business. We still have the modern approach, but we guarantee
FRIENDLY SERVICE AT CFS. That's why we're `better than all the rest'.

lot of jobs open", the local man-
ager indicated.
One new piece of equipment will
be used in the harvest this year.
They are hydraulic tote bins,
which will be filled from the
harvesters and then dumped into
trucks. This will eliminate the
need for the trucks to go into the
fields with the harvesters.
After prolonged delays and set-
backs by poor weather, Huron
farmers are taking full advantage
of the recent sunny weather to go
full speed ahead with their har-
vesting.
Associate Agricultural Repre-
sentative Don Pullen reports the
winter wheat harvest is progress-
ing favorably.
As with most crops this year,
yields have been varying greatly
from one area to another. Some
farmers report excellent crops,
while others hit by a variety of
heavy rains and hail have re-
ported low yields.
Some spring grains have lodged
badly and farmers are finding it
difficult to swath and the yield
has also been affected. However,
some spring barley has been com-
bined with "above average
yields", according to Pullen.
He also indicated that crops
which have not been previously
damaged by adverse weather ap-
pear to be growing well. Cobs
are forming well on most field
corn.
Practically all the first cut
hay is now stored. Hay quality
is below normal because of the
lateness of the season and weath-
ering.
Beef cattle continue to make
good gains on pasture and milk
flow is reported above average
by many dairy farmers.
Heavy rains accompanied by
it DRY-0-MATION SYSTEM
hail severely damaged
crops on a number of farms in
Usborne Township on August 2.
Pullen said some crops can be
considered an almost total loss
as a result of the riddling effect
of the hail.
High winds at the same time
were responsible for t e ar ing
off limbs, blowing over trees,
and damaging barn roofs in this
area.
Some hail damage of a less
serious nature was observed in
Tuckersmith Township.
"Old timers" in South Huron
area have indicated that so far,
this has been one of the most
difficult crop years they can re-
member.
Pullen reports that white beans
and corn in central Huron look to
be the most promising in the
county this year. A long, frost-
free open fall will be very es-
sential for the maturation of many
white bean and corn crops in
South Huron.
FINISH PEAS
Canadian Canners Ltd. man-
ager Jack Urquhart reports that
the pea harvest is expected to be
completed within the next two
weeks.
He said yields from crops har-
vested in the past few days have
been higher than those earlier
in the season and will bring the
overall average up some.
However, the yield is still "hit
and miss" with good reports in
some areas and the opposite in
others.
The corn pack is expected to
start by the end of next week
and "it looks quite good".
The local firm is seeking both
female and male employees for
the corn harvest. "There are a

in grain drying and handling, too. That's why we offer the complete Stormor
Dry-O-Mation package. Every component part has been engineered, tested
and field-proven to work at the proper capacity to match all the other parts
of the system. Everything from the automatically controlled fans and heat
