(Huron-Bruce) The Ontario Government will have to pay out "in the area of $72, 000" to cover bad debts in- curred by Secant Construction, the Company which built Ontario Place, JameS Auld, Minister of Public Works stated in the Legis- lature, He made the statement in reply to Liberal Leader Robert Nixon, who had asked earlier whether the figure would go as high as V7,000. The construction •company has filed a bankruptcy, and now is in receivership. Mr, Aiild said the Province has had to pay out about. $00,000 to cover some Of the Company's delfts so far. Tice Ontario Milk Marketing Board appeared before the Com- mittee Natural and Physical Resources this week, where the main topic of discussion centred around the problem facing the cheese processors in the Province. Basically, the problem is that the Board is not allocating enough milk to these factories in order for them to utilize their pro- duction capacity efficiently. Last year • our cheddar cheese exports amounted to approxim- ately 28 million pounds. This year ,the export of cheddar cheese is not expected to exceed 11 Million pounds. This export market is being filled by Quebec. The Board argued that there Were a number of reasons for this, but basically two-fold. First, the Board has been deliberately diverting milk into the higher priced uses for milk Such es the bottling trade, ice cream or specialty cheese trade. These uses return a higher in- come to fariaers and these needs are conSeettentlY filled first. If there is any milk left over, it then goes into cheddar Cheese pro' duction, which is the lowest Price classification: Second, Quebec beause Of new Pleat facilities Which employ a minimuni of labour; can .produce cheese Much "mere efficiently than can. Ontario. The prodtictien of cheddar cheese in Ontario is much More labour intensive: • The Estimates of the Depart- Merits of Education„ Highways, Municipal Affairs, Trade and De- vel c pin on f, Treasury and Econ- omics, and Justice remain for ceit,e sideration.

As well as lowering the quality of the feed, it can cause a spontaneous combustion, threatening lives, buildings and livestock. Hal Wright, farm safety spec- ialist, Ontario Department of Agriculture and Food, offers a practical way to check damp hay for beating. It is simple, inexpen- sive probe which measures temp- erature and will give the farmer advance warning of a fire. The prone consists er tu teet of 1/2 -inch electrical tubing., A sharpened hardwood point is riv- eted to the end and about C, 3/4 -inch holes drilled just above the point. The probe is then driven S or 0 feet into the hay. An ordinary candy or oven ther- omete tied to a cord is lowered to the bottom of the tube. After approximately 5 minutes, the thermometer is removed and the .temperature read. The proce- dure should be repeated in dif- fent areas of the bay mow. Mr: Wrignt gives the follow- ing temperature signposts : 150 degrees F entering the dang- er zone. Make temperature . observations daily. 100 degrees F Danger! Inspect every four hours to see if the temperature is, rising. 175 degrees F Fire pockets may he anticipated. Call the ,fire department puMper and wet down the hay. 185 degrees le Remove the hay. The pumper should he avail- able since flames will develop When. air comes in Contact with the hay. 210 degreesF Critical! The bay is almost certain to ignite. A 5 a further precaution, Mte Wright advises workmen never to enter the hay mow alone, or without ropes tied to their Waists. If fire pockets have developed, there is a danger of falling into thom. Long planks placed across the top of the hay may be adVist able for making observations or removing hay. "THE GOOD DRIVER" One way to get back on your feet, Says Ontario Safety League, is to have teenagers who drive, * There are traffic lights for the blind in Alicante, Spain, reports the Ontario Safety League. A A carillon plays three seconds after the green light goes on. * If you are involved in a crash at a Speed of from 41. to 50 Mph, your chances of dying are 1 in 88, Add 10 -m iles per hour to the speed and the chances jump to 1 in 31, says the Ontario Safety League. In the ?1.-80 mph range you have only an even chance of survival Action is a good antidote for bad temper. But get rid of your' blues by bearing down on a garden shovel, rather than an ac- celerator pedal, asks the Ontario Safety League. Doctors advise that a slouch-. ing 'position in a car prevents full extension of the lungs; and this • leads to early fatigue. Sit immed- iately liehind the wheel, with both shoulder blades touching the seat hack-, the Ontario Safety League recommends. * * • * • Keep your cam- locked, even on. Your own driveway, the Onta.rio • Safety League recommends. That way you are certain that no child- ren will get in to play. Kids play- ing tag in and out of a car are liable to muss it up quite a bit. But what is far worse, they can injure their hands in closing doors. Or even set the ear in motion, inadvertently.
