EARN MORE SAVE MORE
The top-dressing of established
hay immediately after first
cutting is an accepted practice
with profit-conscious farmers.
Here's why: a $10.00 application
per acre will, on the average, give
at least a $20.00 per acre return.
The use of fertilizer on pasture at
mid-season is equally profitable.
Tractor-drawn spreader . . . see your CO OP and
arrange for the most practical, most economical
spreading method for your farm.
Bulk Fertilizer is another CO-OP Service to the Ontario Farmer
CO-OP Bulk Spreading saves
you time and effort and
actually costs very little. With
CO-OP modern equipment
you are assured of uniform
distribution of the fertilizer.

"The Best in Farm Machinery"
HARRY VAN GERWEN
EXETER
National Farmers' Union
members across the province have
ratified an agreement worked out
between union officials and
officials of Bordens Ltd.,
concerning the importation of
milk powder.
In three membership meetings
held across the province, farm
union members voted to ratify
the document presented and
explained to them by Vice
President Walter Miller, who had
led the farm union bargaining
team in the negotiations with
Bordens.
The memorandum sets forth a
commitment on the part of the
company that it will use Canadian
produced milk powder and/or
related basic milk products
exclusively from the date of the
document until April 30th next
year, or to give "reasonable
advance notice' to the Union if it
finds importation necessary.
There is provision for the
company to import powder if an
adequate standard of quality is
not available in the Canadian
product.
The Union agrees to the
immediate suspension of
picketing and boycotting and to
give the company advance notice
if such action is to be taken again
during the life of the
understanding. The union also
undertakes to do "everything
possible" to reverse the effects of
past boycotting of Borden
products.
Picketing of Borden's plant at
Ingersoll began on the evening of
June 24th and continued until

halted by an injunction on June
30th. Plants at Belmont,
Cornwall, and Peterborough were
subsequently picketed for several
days. Boycotting began on June
30th and was suspended July 3rd,
when Bordens agreed to
discontinue importation.
By MRS. NORMAN LONG
KIPPEN
A shower was held at Kippen
United Church to honor Wendy
Jones, bride-elect of July 25.
Program numbers were
introduced by Mrs. Orval
Workman and a singsong, led by
Mrs. Ross Broadfoot, opened the
program. Contests were
conducted by Dianne Dewys and
Gwen Hendrick and Debbie
Consitt and Sharon Finlayson
played a piano duet.
Gwen Hendrick read the
address to the guest of honour.
After opening the gifts, Wendy
thanked everyone.
COCHRANE REUNION
The annual Cochrane reunion
was held at Clan Gregor Square,
Bayfield, July 12, with 52
attending.
A full line of sports were
conducted with Mrs. J. McAllister
and Mrs. Glenn Goff in charge.
Mr. Stan Love, Exeter conducted
a short business meeting after a
picnic supper.
Greetings were read from Mr.
and Mrs. Gordon Fordes and Mr.
and Mrs. Cliff Smith of
Edmonton who expressed hope
of being present at a future
reunion.
Officers for 1971 were
elected: president, Ian
McAllister; secretary, Margaret
Jones; treasurer, Jim Love; table
conveners, Mrs. Wm. Elliott and
Mrs. Alex McMurtrie; sports
committee, Mrs. Glenn Goff and
Mrs. J. McAllister.
Actions of the Minister of
Agriculture, Hon. H. A. Olson,
and his department in
withholding information and
giving misleading statements
about the importation of milk
powder were criticized by many
farmers at the meetings.

Combustion
can destroy
Spontaneous combustion
within a haymow can destroy the
hay and the building in which it is
stored.
A constant cheek of the
temperature of the hay is vital,
says Mr. Hal Wright, Farm Safety
Specialist, Ontario DePartment
of Agriculture and Food.
To take the temperature, a
1/2 -inch pipe or tube
approximately 10 feet in length
can be used. The end of the tube
should have a point of hardwood
riveted to it, and a few holes, VI
ipch in diameter, made just above
the hardwood,
The tube should be inserted
into the hay. Drop a candy or
oven thermometer attached to a
string into the tube arid leave it
for five minutes.
After five minutes the
temperature should be noted and
compared to the following scale:
if the temperature is 150 degrees,
the danger zone is near and
observations should be made
every day; at 160 degrees,
inspections should be made every
four hours; at 175 degrees, fire
pockets may be anticipated and
the fire pumper called to wet
down the hay.
If the temperature reaches 185
degrees, the hay should be
removed and the fire pumper
available, since flames will
develop when the fire pockets
contact the air.
A temperature of 210 degrees
means the hay is almost sure to
ignite, says Mr. Wright.
Workmen should never work
alone and should always have
ropes tied around their waists as a
safety measure when working on
the haymow. Long planks should
be placed over the hay for men to
stand on and observe or remove
the hay.
