'in' the High Way Traffic Act, there has been a great deal of . confusion - over their proper use. Following,are some pointS that may help you understand the' Slow Moving Vehicle Legislation and how you should use slow moving vehicle signs on• your farm. THE LEGISLATION 1. The slow moving vehicle sign is for agricultural equipment and vehicleS of husban.dry only (25' mph or less). 2. The slow moving vehicle sign must be ,mounted with the base dOwn, on a plane perpendicular to the direction of • travel of the vehicle. 3. The sign must be located in the centre of the vehicle(s), not less than two feet or more than six feet from the surface of the roadway. 4. The sign must, not be obscured from view (attached loads includ- ed). , 5. The sign must be in good condition and free of dirt, etc. 6. The sign must be visible from at least 500 feet. 7. The sign must be' Canadian Standards 'Association approved. • The specifications for the slow moving vehicle 'sign may be received from our office. These signs were not made to mark laneways or mail box posts. If the farming community is aware of'the correct way' to use slow moving vehicle signs, all that is left to do is to educate the urban dweller of its original purpose. RANDY WILLICK, Extension Assistant. DANDELIONS IN LAWNS Dandelions are - an unsightly weed in any lawn. Control in a farmstead lawn 'can be 'more"complete because of the isolation from a neighbour's seed source. In towns, control can be hindered because of neglect by someone who .allows dandelions to flourish. The herbicide 2,4-D, alone or in mixtures, is readily available, inexpensive and effective. Dande- lions should be sprayed both spring and fall (May and SePtember) for good control. Follow the directions on the can and don't allow the, spray to drift onto anything 'you don't want killed. Program For Non Farming Youth This year the Ontario ,Ministry of Agriculture and Food will once again be sponsoring the Junior Agriculturalist Program during the summer of 1976. The program is designed to provide a practical learning experience -for young people from non-farm homes who have a serious interest in agricul- ture, and who have had no experience working on a farm. As 4a Junior Agriculturist, a person will be placed on a selected commercial farm, where he/she will perform regular activities relative to that farm. operation. In addition, a Junior Agriculturalist, will have an opportunity to develop an appreciation of rural life through living with a farm • family, and through participating in the local 4-H and Junior Farmer prograrns and in other rural activities. 'The prospective Junior Agricult- uralist will be either boys or girls 16 to..17 years of age and must be in, good physical and mental condition in order to withstand the vigorous' physical effort. ,Selection will be based in part on, their reasons for being interested in agriculture, and their' plans' for further education and a career. • All Junior Agriculturalists will bp required to participate in, an orientation program' to help pre- pare them for their. farm stay. This program will be held about mid June and on-farm assignment 'will be for a nine week period, commencing, on June 21st and terminating on August 20th, 1976. A Junior Agriculturalist, will be assigned, wherever possible, to a farm with the 'type' of enterprise(s) in which she/he is most interested PAGE SEVEN • in. The duties involved will vary, considerably depending on the individual farm operation, the' .demonstrated ability of the Junior Agriculturalist and the kind of enterprises found on the farm. The' interest host farmers. are to be commercial farms, with the operator engaged in" farming full timex They must be interested in helping inexperienced young people develop 'the skills required on a farm and are expected•to have the ability to work well with and 'su pervise young people. • Host farmers must also provide suitable 'accommodation for the Junior Agriculturalist during his/her stay on the farm. Each Junior Agriculturalist will receive ,a training allowance , of $16.00 per day, based on a six daY week. $6.00 of this will be provided by the Ontario Ministry of Agricul- ture and, Food; the host farmer will provide $5.00 per day in cash, as" well as supplying ,room and board wort1015.00 per day.
