ADVICE
LICENSE NEEDED FOR
WHEAT FUNGICIDES
Two fungicides for red wheat reg-
istered by Agriculture Canada and
gazetted by the Ontario Ministry of the
Environment are Schedule I pesticides,
which means that producers need a
permit to purchase and use them.
Bayleton is registered in Ontario
on hard red winter wheat only, and
controls powdery mildew and rust.
Tilt is registered in Ontario on hard
red winter wheat and hard red spring
wheat, and is active against powdery
mildew, rust, and septoria.
These fungicides may be very im-
portant in protecting your wheat yields
in 1987. Alternatively, weather con-
ditions may be right and fungicides
may be unnecessary.
The bottom line is that if you
don't have a permit, you don't have the
choice. The manufacturers of Bayleton
and Tilt have been putting on meet-
ings covering proper usage, safety, and
handling of these products, and helping
farmers to fill in permit forms. These
forms are collected and sent to Toronto
for Ministry of the Environment signa-
tures before being returned to farmers.
If you scout your fields and detect
disease or the opportunity for disease,
you must present your permit to your
farm supply dealer in order to purchase
the fungicides. Be sure your dealer has
also been through the intensive train-
ing session on the particular product.
If you miss the first round of
regional meetings and still need a
permit, contact the distributors of the
product as soon as possible. You will
have to go through a training session
with the company representative before
he can help you apply for the permit.°

LISTENING RATED AN
IMPORTANT SKILL
Listening is an important commu-
nication skill that requires attention to
the speaker's non-verbal indicators as
well as his words and meanings.
Although we speak about 100 to
125 words a minute, we can think
about 1,000 words a minute. Concen-
trate on a speaker's words and be recep-
tive to new topics.°
