Beangrowers find Treflan
ensures effective weed contro
"With this new Treflan,
we can grow beans
on dirty land as well:'
says Ken Mailoux.
"Treflan gives me 100%
control of foxtail,
lambsquarters and pigweed,"
says Clifford Wildblood.
Treflan is giving beangrowers the weed control
they need to help lower labour coats and achieve
better profits.
Ken Mailoux of Comber, Ontario, found the
worst weeds in his soybeans were pigweed and
lambsquarters. Now "Treflan is controlling the
weeds very well," he says. "This year, because of
all the rain, I haven't been able to rotary hoe, and
Treflan's really done the job for me."
Clifford Wildblood farms a fertile clay loarti that
can really grow white beans — and weeds — at.
Chatham, Ontario. He's been using Treflan for two
years now "with very satisfactory results."
Clifford finds it pays to make sure Treflan is
properly incorporated in the soil before planting
time. And it's simple to do. "I work it in, disc both
ways before planting that's all," he says.
Treflan can help you achieve results like these.

Headquarters. for the Huron
County Campaign Committee to
promote a new General Farm
Organization have been set up in
Clinton.
The campaign chairman is
Elmer Hunter, RR 3 Goderich
who is president of the Huron
County Federation of
Agriculture.
Other members of the
committee are Phil Durand, RR
2 Zurich; George Smith, RR 3
Lucknow; George Robertson,
RR 6 Goderich and Jack
Stafford, R11.1 Wroxeter.
13y joining the campaign,
Durand, a director of the
Ontario Farmers' Union faces
expulsion from the union's
provincial board of directors and
executive committee.
Durand is the second director
to oppose provincial policy.
Earlier, Delmer Bennett of
Forrester's Falls in Eastern
Ontario joined the committee
for one organization which is
headed by Malcolm Davidson of
13rucefield.
Durand who has been a leader
of the Zurich local of the
Farmers' Union made his
intentions known early Tuesday
morning following a lengthy and
stormy meeting of his district in
Clinton Monday night.
At the Clinton meeting, Mr.
Durand said the farm union
should be represented on GFO
committees to ensure that union
views are voiced openly,
"We have a chance here for a
vote and a chance to build a
strong organization. We must
realize that there are limitations
for us and that in the past we
have not had sufficient finances
to carry things out," he said.
After Durand was nominated
to sit on Huron's campaign
committee at the Clinton
meeting, Walter Miller, president
of the Ontario Union said he
faces dismissal from the
provincial board.
The Clinton meeting, lasting
to 1 a.m. Tuesday, erupted into
verbal clashes on several

occasions. At times it threatened
to get out of hand with personal
clashes and mud-slinging charges
hurled across the floor,
Mr, Miller started the meeting
off, speaking for more than an
hour op the threat farmers face
from the "corporate empires"
and an explanation on why the
provincial executive opposes a
scheduled June vote on UFO.
During a lengthy question
period, Mr. Miller was challenged
on many occasions to support
statements he had made — in
particular, an alleged threat to
resign if the provincial board
allowed GFO chairman Malcolm
Davidson to present his proposal
to a union board meeting last
month,
Mr. Miller denied he
threatened to resign and said he
had been informed by Mr.
Davidson a written copy of the
proposal was not available.
"Your memory hasn't been
very good in the past year," shot
back Mrs. Helen Thompson of
Brucefield, a former provincial
women's director.
Gordon Hill of Varna, a
former union president, said he
saw more than 100 copies of Mr.
Davidson's proposal the day
before the meeting and charged
that Mr. Miller had been told in
the middle of the meeting that
copies were available.
Mr, Miller replied that those in
the meeting were just witnessing
an example of words being
twisted around. He said such

In an attempt to clarify his
position on the General Farm
Organization Campaign
Committee, Malcolm Davidson
of 13rucefield wrote a letter to
the editor of the London Free
Press.
Malcolm Davidson, GFO
chairman this week clarified his
position by replying to several
letters written by Ontario farm
people,
Replying to a suggestion from
a Milverton woman that he
should resign from the Q.F.A.
board of governors, Davidson
said, "I can assure you that I did
consider such action but felt
that it would make little or no
difference to the vast majority
of farm people, and could have
tempted some of accusing me of
trying to hide a previous small
involvement with the O.F.A."
Davidson went on to ask the
following questions, "Do we
want a strong, well-financed
General Farm Organization with
official recognition by
government? Do we want the
marketing boards to have a vote
on such a GFO? Do we want the
11,00. and U.D.P.C. to have a
vote on such a GFO?"
What sort of membership do
we want in our General Farm

Organization? Should
membership require a voluntary
payment regardless of checkoff?
Should membership 'be
automatic if you pay a
checkoff? or should membership
require a minimum contribution
by checkoff and/or voluntary
payment?
"These are the important
parts of a General Farm
Organization and these are the
areas that ought to be discussed
carefully and fairly by every
farmer in the province,' added
Davidson.
An information meeting for
area farmers on the GFO
question will be held tonight,
Thursday at the Exeter Legion
Hall, sponsored by the Osborne
and Stephen Federations of
