She was out helping with the straw baling . Trudy is the guest of Chris MacGregor, on the right, under the 4••••:- ,urban-rural exchange program. Many cars attend event Many churches have been trying various methods to en- courage church attendance, especially in the summer; and the Exeter Pentecostal Church is no exception. Rev.Austin Gedcke told the T-A he is very pleased with his church's experiment with a drive in church service held each Sunday in the parking lot of Custom Trailers Ltd. The services which have been going on all summer will continue until the last Sunday in August. "We have been very pleased with the consistency of attendance even during the heavy vacation time." Rev. Gedcke said. "We have about 40 to 50 cars each Sunday although we haven't tallied exact numbers yet." He also stated that many of the people who come are local residents from other churches. "We have been most successful though in involving our own people." he said. They did run into several problems the first Sunday when some of the trailers hadn't been moved out of the parking lot. But things have been straightened out, he told the paper. This is the third year that the Pentecostal church has held open air services. Rev. Gedcke said that if interest continues they will continue to have these services next summer, PLAN BEAN DAY An Ontario bean meeting will be held Thursday, August 30 at Jack Peck's farm, 11 4 miles west of Kippen starting at 9:00 a.m. Growers are invited to attend and see the latest developments in variety, herbicides and fer- tilizing.

I have examined the 1972 financial statements of the Corporation of the Township of Usborne and its local boards, which are listed on the attached Index. My examination included a general review of the accounting procedures and such tests of accounting records and other supporting evidence as I considered necessary in the cir- cumstances. In my opinion these financial statements present fairly the finan- cial position of the Corporation of the Township of Osborne and its local boards as at December 31st, 1972, and the results of their operations for the year then ended, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted for Ontario municipalities applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year.

What did Trudy like the best about her country visit? "The good eating and: the fresh air." she said with a wide grin, Mrs. MacGregor is very. pleased with their guest. "She's really part of the family. We'd like to keep her .,, Chris is equally enthusiastic about the whole thing. She says she's learned a lot about farming just from the questions that Trudy asks. She was looking forward to going back to the city too, especially since Trudy's house has a swimming pool in the backyard. Trudy comes from a large family, being the second youngest of eight children. The whole family came out from the province of Limburg in Holland 12 years ago. Her father is a senior clerk, Both Trudy and Chris are eagerly making plans to visit with each other next summer, This is the first time that Trudy has taken part in an exchange program. Chris had a girl come earlier this summer bUt she did Heissenberger has worked in manufacturing since 1936. He was assistant superintendent for structures at Curtiss Wright Corp. when he left that company for a position at Twin Industries Corp. At Twin he served as production manager of industrial engineering and planning, eventually becoming manager of manufacturing engineering, A member of the Society of Manufacturing Engineers, Heissenberger was educated at the University of Buffalo and studied extension courses from Cornell University, Erwin N. Heissenberger, of 22 River Road, Grand Bend, has been named director of Manufacturing at Bell Aerospace Canada Division of Textron Canada Ltd. Heissenberger comes to Bell from Fleet industries, Fort Erie, where he served as manufac- turing consultant. James L, Decker, vice president of Bell Aerospace Canada and general manager of the company's assembly facility at Grand Bend Airport, said Heissenberger will have overall responsibility for the production program, The plant has produced two Voyageur Air Cushion Vehicles and is manufacturing four additional 45-ton Voyageurs as well as five 17-ton Viking ACVs.

Continual efforts is being put forth to achieve cost reductions and to find efficiencies which will restrain the steadily rising cost of processing.

But for 13 year-old Trudy Diening of Willowdale, it has certainly come true. Trudy is part of an urban-rural exchange program sponsored by the Ministry of Agriculture and Food this summer, She was visiting the farm of Mr. and Mrs. Grant MacGregor, RR a Nippon, recently. And 14 year-old Chris MacGregor, accompanied her new friend back to the city this week. Special buses transport the participants to their host's home, The children taking part in the program are expected to become involved in all aspects of the family's life while they visit, Trudy has certainly taken part in the chores. One afternoon, she was out in the fields helping the MacGregors bring in their straw, "This is great!" bubbled Trudy. "At home we do nothing but watch TV, Here you're always busy." Trudy has also helped with the pigs, gone fishing off Bayfield pier, bicycled all over the countryside and had a swim at the Exeter dam. She even went to Stratford to help buy some pigs. process of the tomato fruit and concentrates the ripening. This allows growers to harvest more tomatoes on the first go round, letting them reduce harvesting costs while more accurately timing and scheduling the tomato harvest. In apples, Ethrel promotes a uniform, earlier red-coloring and ripening, It also loosens apples for faster, easier machine har- vesting; and when applied to young, non-bearing trees, helps them produce a marketable crop years ahead of schedule. Amchem Products anticipates Ethrel will also be cleared for use on walnuts and filberts during the 1973 growing season, Researchers are continuing to field test Ethrel on dozens of other fruit and nut crops in- cluding figs, cantaloupe, grapes, tobacco, cranberries, rasp- berries, blackberries, blueberries, red peppers, or- namentals, peaches, pears and citrus. The Canadian Department of Agriculture and the Department of National Health and Welfare, Health Protection Branch, have approved the use of Ethrel plant regulator for use this season on cherry, tomato and apple crops. The registration follows six years of extensive field tests by government, industry, university and independent researchers on the performance of Ethrel as well as its environmental safety. "Ethrel has been thoroughly tested for crop results with growers as well as for residues and toxicity," said Eugene A. Snyder, President of Amchem Products, Inc. Amchem, a division of Rorer- Anichem, developed Ethrel, which contains the plant regulator ethephon. Amchem has tested Ethrel with tomato, cherry and apple producers in Canada and the United States under experimental label. According to Amchem researchers, Ethrel triggers the release of ethylene, a naturally occurring ripening agent in tomato plants, cherry and apple trees. Through the release of ethylene, cherries are loosened on the stem for an easier, faster hand or machine harvest with more quality fruit and higher recoverable yields, In tomatoes, the release of ethylene speeds up the ripening Huron beans are bronzing Hot, humid weather the past week has favoured the ap- pearance of ozone bronzing on white bean leaves in Huron County. Affected leaves turn rusty- yellow in colour and if severely damaged, begin to fall off. This leaf loss can cause con- siderable loss in yield, especially on crops that are just beginning to pod. Unfortunately, the condition is due to weather conditions and little can be done to control it.
