Cattle profits
show variation
Variations in yearly costs and
returns among beef cow farmers
were reported in a study conduct-
ed by the farm economics, co-
operatives and statistics branch
of the Ontario Department of Ag-
riculture and Food. This study
was carried out for the years of
1969 and 1970 on 11 beef cows
farms in Algoma and Manitoulin
The 11 farms had an average
of 63 cows In their beef herds in
1969 and 66 cows in 1970. Total
investment at $70,509 in 1970 was
higher than the $66,952 in 1969.
Cash receipts, for cattle were
higher at $10,855 in 1970, com-
pared to $9,414 in 1969. Other
ash receipts were higher by
$269 in 1970. Gross farm in-
come at $15,538 was lower in
1970 (compared to $18,095 in
1969) dtie to adverse weather
during crop harvest, resulting
in lower quantities of homegrown
feed on hand at the end of 1970.

The Post continues to receive
letters from Centennial visitors
expressing the pleasure they ex-
perienced at Brussels Birthday
Party. They warmly credit the
chairmen, executive committee
members, and workers •for the
time and effort that went into
the planning and the excellent
manner in which the entire cel-
ebration was conducted. A great
deal of interest has also been
exhibited in the July 5th edition
containing the names of all those
who registered at Centennial
Headquarters.

At the beach we overheard a
discussion between two very
proper appearing ladies, wearing
in all the heat, hats, and carry-
ing spotless white gloves. They
apparently had not visited a
summer resort in the past few
years and were expressing shock
and amazement at the abundance
of very brief bikinis seen on the
beach, and street. Such attire,
in their opinion, was a brazen
display and an invitation to all
kinds of goings-on and should not
be condoned.

It seems that other news-
paper; as was commented on in
one recently, have problems in
getting sports reports. The Post
has had the same difficulty for
some years. We are most grate-
ful to those who have been so
prompt and faithful, in getting
reports to us, but have finally
given up asking time and again
for at least the score, if not
a full report, of all ball games.
Few have been forthcoming.

The reckless, noisy, car per-
formers are still with us. Not
content with using the street
for their senseless antics, it has
been reported they tried using a
portion of the main street side-
walk one night last week. Why
does anyone persist in such
actions? Normal, high spirted
people don't indulge in such be-
haviour. They are undoubtedly
immature persons with a massive
inferiority problem who feel they
must bring themselves to public
attention in this manner. How
sad that their lack of self esteem
makes them commit such foolish
acts which only create the exact
opposite impression to that they
desire to make on others.
Every week, more and more
people discover what mighty jobs
are accomplished by low cost
