Mary -Lou Weiser -Hamilton talks to some of their members. SOIL AND CROP IMPROVEMENT Ken Mitchell, president of the Grey County Soil and Crop Improvement Association, reports that his organiza- tion is having a busy year. In addition to involvement with the International Plowing Match, the group has sponsored the summer directors' meeting of the Ontario Soil and Crop Improvement Association. At the IPM, the association is co- sponsoring a tillage demonstration. Joan McKinley, soil and crop specialist for Grey and Bruce counties, has set up test plots for alfalfa near the match site.
