Beangrowers find Treflan
ensures effective weed control.
"With this new Tref Ian,
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,
1'
Treflan is giving beangrowers the weed control
they need to help lower labour costs and achieve
better profits.
Ken Mailoux of Comber, Ontario, found the
worst weeds in his soybeans were pigweed and
lambsquarters. Now "Trawl is controlling the
weeds very well," he says, "This year, because of
all the rain, 1 haven't been able to rotary hoe, and
Treflan's really done.the job for me,",
Clifford Wildblood farms a fertile day loam 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.
Tteflan Can help you achieve results like these.

The majority of the corn crop
in Huron County has been
planted as of the end of May.
Farmers are now preparing the
ground for soybean and white
bean plantings.
Spring grains, in most cases,
look good although some
farmers report yellowing due to
too much moisture earlier on.
Hay and pasture crops are
coming on well, and should
provide lots of feed now and
when the haying season comes.
Beef prices
getting higher
President of the Ontario.
Farmers' Union, Walter Miller,
said this week that the present
meat price increases to
consumers pre very unfair.
Supermarkets were selling sirloin
steak a few months ago for 99
cents per lb., and now the prices
are anywhere from $1-,39 to
$1.69, This is a 40 to 70 cent
increase.
Packinghouse an d retail
expenses haven't increased
proportionately in the last few
months. Beef producers are
receiving only 6 to 8 cents per
lb. liveweight more than a few
months ago when they were
receiving only 29 to 31 cents per
lb, The increased liveweight
prices would increase retail
prices 12 to 15 cents per pound,
but nowhere near the 40 to 70
cents consumers are now being
charged.
Financial statements of
meatpackers and supermarkets
have indicated very healthy
profits over several years, made
at the expense of farmers.
The Farmers' Union will
contact the Consumers'
Association and the government
to ask for an 'inquiry into the
extra prices charged to
consumers that are not paid to
the primary producer.
The National harmers
Organization in the United
States has successfully embarked
on a collective bargaining
marketing system to improve the
low prices paid to farmers. The
Farmers' Union in Canada is also
in the process of setting up a
collective bargaining marketing
system.
