Ozone which causes the bronzing is an air pollutant. It is ' hydrocarbon which is a product of incomplete combustion in the presence of sunlight. Ozone levels have been - extremely high in the first of the month of 'August which was hot and muggy because of little air movement. Other problems plaguing the beans this year were premature whitening, dry wea- ther disease and leaf hoppers, insect pests. A word to baked bean lovers. In an effort to obtain bean recipes that were typical of Ontario the Ontario Food Council advertised a bean recipe contest. More than 350 homemakers sen t in their family's favorite. After strenuous testing and tasting the Ontario Bean Board has come out with a booklet of mouth water- ing 'recipes— For your free copy write to the Ontario Bean Pro- ducers Marketing Board, 431 Newbold St., London, Ont. N3E 1K2. It contains a deli- cious recipe for Sherry Baked Beans. Why worry about -the price of beef! Beans not only offer con- sumers a good meat substitute according, to Canada's Food Guide but also contain body-building protein, iron, calcium; phos- phorous and thiamine. To put muscle into your food dollar buy beans, the bean people advised. Being an, odd year the annual Ontario bean meeting was held in Kippen. Even years the meet- ing takes place in Ridgetown. Last Thursday morning over fifty of the area's bean growers gathered at Jack Peck's farm, 1 1/4 miles 'west of Kippen to discuss the latest in different bean varieties, coloured beans, herbicides and fertilizer. A new variety "Kentwood" of which Don LittleJohns from the Ridgetown college of agriculture, who spoke on the different varie- ties of white beans, made special mention of is a new bush variety released this year. It is between the Seafarer and Sanilac type of white bean. in time of maturity and has slightly larger seeds. It has similar diseaseresista.nce to Seat arer. The latter being resistant to prevalent strains of anthracnose and common bean mosaic. Yields have been high with both early and mid June planting of the new Kentwood white bean. Foundation seed will be available in 1975. Among the varieties of coloured beans and their yield potential discussed by Mr. Little Johns were Yellow Eye, Light red kidney, Azuki and Black turtle. A spokesman for the Dept. of Agriculture mentioned the possibility of an opening in the Cuban market for the Black turtle beans which have small black seeds. The price of white beans quoted on bean day by the mar- keting board according to Chair- man Phil Durand was ,,an average price of $18.92 per hundred weight." Chairman Durand also said that to date 40% of the 1973 crop has been sold. Sec treas. Charles Broadwell said th—e board pulled out of the market about two weeks ago be- cause of the impossibility to determine the years potential due to factors like this August's heat wave. which has caused bronzing and is making the crops mature earlier. He said they hoped to be back in the market in about two weeks. One of the problems. between the grower and the marketing board said Mr. Broadwell is that the farmers find it hard to relate the current price to what they receive as an initial payment for their crop. The Agricultural Co- ops marketing act sets the initial payment from an average percen- tage taken from the previous three years price. While a growei can't do anything about the first set payment, Mr. Broad well said that before interim price is set in mici-April producers should go to the direc-. tors and a.sk for higher interim payments earlier than April.
