lawn greener and your garden
healthier?
The Ministry of Agriculture and
Food’s new, improved soil analysis
service can help by providing the
specific fertilizer and lime require

proper types and amounts of
fertilizer and lime.

out cor.'taining detailed chemical
analysis. In addition, it provides
fertilizer recommendations that
include the specific rate and grade
of fertilizer for each individual
situation.

owners should be able to improve
their lawns and gardens by
ensuring optimum plant nutrition.
To help amateur gardeners, an
information sheet is provided to all
those who send soil for analysis.
Gardeners can expect to get
their test results back at least a
week faster with the improved soil
testing service now being offered
by the Ministry.
Thefeefor abasictest, which
includes phosphorus, potassium,
magnesium PH and lime require
ments is $7. A test for organic
matter costs $5, while a test for salt
content is $3.

Fishing licences
start next year
Ontario will introduce a resident
licence for sport fishing in 1987,
Ontario Natural Resources Mini
ster Vincent Kerrio announced last
week.
Mr. Kerrio said the licence will
be required of most Ontario
residents aged 18 to 64. Senior
citizens and the disabled will be
exempt, as will Status Indians
fishing on their reserves or treaty
areas. The annual licence will cost
$10 while a short-term licence to
fish for four consecutive days will
cost $5.
“In public meetings held across
the province, and through angler
surveys, we have received strong
support for this licence,” said Mr.
Kerrio.
“People have indicated strong
approval for plans to put funding
equivalent to revenues generated
from this licence - projected to be
$9-to-$10-million a year -- into
fisheries improvement programs.
This support indicates that the
time is ripe to adopt the ‘user-pay’
principle in fisheries manage
ment.”

dance and read the roll call which
asked members to show a veget
able each had dried.
Members went on and read the
meeting notes about pickles and
canning.
