As gas supplies dwindle or
the price gets out of reach,
more and more boats,
snowmobiles, dune buggies
and trail bikes will sit idle in
garages collecting cobwebs.
Adriaan (Art) Brand will be
ready for that day. He thinks
the horse will return as the
main source of recreation.
For ten years now, Brand
has been collecting Arabian
and part Arabian horses.
This summer saw the one of
his plans become a reality,
A new riding arena and
lounge as well as other
facilities for horses have
been added to the barn he
built a few years ago to
house his eight horses.
The arena is a hig: fling
construction with a shAdy
floor. The building is 120 feet
long by 60 feet wide, the
regular size for a riding
arena, according to Brand.
The eaves are 15 feet high
providing enough room for
jumping horses.
By PAT LYNCH AND
ALAN SCOTT
Ontario Ministry of
Agriculture and
Food Stratford
These past few days we
have received numerous
calls about harvesting corn.
We think that now you should
start harvesting corn as fast
as possible. It is true it will
probably dry down more if
you wait. However, as of
October 25th we estimate
that the grain corn harvest is
only 5 - 10 percent complete -
well behind normal. The wet
weather conditions that exist
will already slow down this
late harvest. This in turn
may turn into some ground
not being fall ploughed. If
this ground is not fall
ploughed it will hurt our
yields next year.
This problem is further
complicated by the moulds
that are present in- the corn.
The longer the corn stays in
the field the more the moulds
will grow.These moulds and
resulting toxins will lower
the value of this corn when
fed.
There are numerous
problems and some possible
solutions to handling this wet
corn It is hard' to make no. 2
yellow corn (standard for
most corn sales) out of corn
testing more than 32 - 33 %
However, this fall the
competition for buying dry
corn is aggressive. Nor-
mally, there is only about 3 e
per bu. deduction for no. 3.
This is a small deduction
compared to the loss if this
corn remains in the field
over winter. This year some
elevators may waive this
deduction just to get your
corn.
• On farm storage
If the corn is being put into
silos on the farm the
moisture again is important.
Ideally, the moisture should
be between 28 and 32 %
moisture. If the corn is
wetter than this it will not
flow adequately. This can
make unloading slow or
impossible. Even after
unloading, wetter corn tends
to bridge in automated
feeding equipment. You can
reduce the moisture of corn
by adding dry grain to the
wet corn. You must add 100
lbs. of dry grain to each ton
of wet corn to reduce the
total % moisture by one
point. That means if your
corn tested 37 % and' you
wanted to reduce it to 32%
you would have to add 500
lbs. of dry corn to each ton of
wet corn. This dry corn
should be cracked to get
maximum benefit from it.
You could also dry all the
corn from say 37 % moisture
Youth rally
held here
Sunday; October 28 a
Stratford circuit Youth Rally
was held at Peace Lutheran
Churen,Exeter.Nearly forty
youth from Zion Lutheran
Dashwood; Berea by the
Water Lutheran, Goderich;
St. John's Lutheran,
Seebach's Hill; St. Peter's
Lutheran, Stratford and
Peace Lutheran, Exeter
came and enjoyed games,
ice-skating, Bible study and
singing, The singing was led
by Mr. Glen Rittinger of
Berea by the Water,
Goderich.
A supper was served by
the ladies of Peace
Lutheran. It was decided
that the Spring Rally would
be held at Berea by the
Water Goderich. One
representative of each
congregation was chosen to
serve as a circuit executive
for future planning of youth
activities in the Circuit,
Attached to the arena is a
lounge area, where
prospective riders can wait
their turn. Brand has also
found the lounge useful for
the 4-H club meeting he
holds. And of course, he adds
that it is also a nice place to
entertain buyers of his
horses. The lounge has ladies
and mens rooms, as well as
showers for those who have
as much a workout as the
horse.
In the area connecting the
arena to the barn where the
horses stalls are, Brand has
made a place for washing
and grooming horses,
Brand is calling his new
operation. Brandale
Arabians and Equestrian
Centre. The name Brandale
seemed to suit the place, and
he adds that his brother
raises Brandale holsteins.
As well as buying, selling,
raising and training Arabian
horses, Brand plans to use
to 32 This would not be
real expensive since the first
few moisture points are the
easiest to remove. This corn
should be cooled down to at
least 65 degrees F. before it
is put into the silo.
Moulds in corn
As we mentioned earlier
there are numerous moulds
in the corn this year. These
mould produce toxins which
are harmful, especially to
pregnant sows. You can take
a sample of the corn and
have it analyzed for moulds.
However, this sample will
only be accurate for that
sample of corn. There may
be toxins in other parts of the
silo. The best thing to do is
not to become overly
worried, but be aware of the
symptoms. Once these
symptoms start to appear
the sows must be taken off
this corn.
If you are putting 35 - 40
% moisture corn in the silo
there are some precautions.
The high % moisture will not
adversely affect fer-
mentation. The corn will be
higher in acetic acid. This
will change the smell, but
should not change the feed
value. If you have a bottom
unloading silo be sure to put
a few loads of dry corn in the
bottom. By a few we mean
about 10 tons of dry corn.
This will help establish a
flow pattern. A chain type
unloader should be able to
handle corn up to 40
moisture.
Last minute reminders
Silo gas can be a problem
in high moisture corn. Most
moisture testers lose their
accuracy above 35%
moisture. Mocrowave ovens
or electric stoves are ac-
curate at the high moisture
range. Machine harvested
corn is generally about 5%
wetter than the same corn
hand shelled and moisture
tested.

says he owes his interest in
Arabian horses to Dalton
Finkbeiner,
Finkbeiner has been in-
volved with raising and
promoting Arabian horses
for several years. He has
worked with the Canadian
registration of purebred
Arabians in Bowden, Alberta
and the Arabian Horse of
America in Denver,
Colorado, as well as the
registration for half
Arabians in Burbank,
California.
The World Arabian
Organization meets every
two years. Finkbeiner is
already looking forward to
going to South Africa in
October of 1980. Then in 1982,
the group will be meeting in
Calgary.
Finkbeiner says that
although some people may
deny it, he believes that the
Arabian horse is the founder
of all breeds. He says that
the Arabian goes back to the
time of Noah's Ark, and there
is no horse that does not
contain some Arabian
blood."
Adriaan Brand now has'
five purebred Arabians and
three half Arabians. The
Arabian came from Egypt,
but now is popular in Poland,
Spain and Russia.
Occasionally some Arabians
are pure black or pure white,
but that is very rare.
Brand's horses are bay
(brown with a black mane
and tail), chestnut, or
strawberry (a rosy grey).
Several of his mares are now
in foal. The gestation period
for a horse is 11 months.
Brand says his "pride and
joy" is a young stallion that
was born last spring, The
colt's name is Brandale
Haizyek, named for his Sire
El Nazyek and his mother,
Brand's Haitab.
Because of his good
breeding, Haizyek is worth
about $5000--one of Brand's
most valuable. The price of
an Arabian horse varies
between $500 and $5000
depending on the breeding.
Stud fees are a big ex-
pense for Brand. They
range between $400 and
$1000. On top of that he has to
pay a boarding fee of ;3 to $4
per day for the mare, as well
as pay for a veterinary to
check on her. Sometimes it
takes up to two months to
breed a mare.
Brand says that his
Arabians are very in-
telligent horses 'and good
with children, The first thing
he teaches a young rider is to
be comfortable and relaxed
with the horse, "I cannot
improve their riding until
they are comfortable sitting
on the horse," he says.
According to Brand the
Arabians are not nervous or
high-strung as many people
think. He points out that
most parade horses are
Arabians. The Arabian looks
good in Western saddle and
gear, as well as with a rider
in English jodpurs and boots.
But a beautiful sight is an
Arabian horse in full Arab
costume, Brand says.
When he's not busy with
his Arabian horses and his
new equestrian centre,
Brand is teaching grade
seven and eight at Stephen
Central School.
