Bob Allan Joan Van den Broeck Chair Director OPP service number, 1-800-265-2525 THE EDITOR, I am writing to ask for your assis tance in publicizing our 1-800 Telephone Number for use when requesting Ontario Provincial Police service. This number applies in the Huron, Perth, Bruce, Grey, Wellington, and Waterloo areas. Recent surveys of our incoming calls have shown that many requests for police service have been needlessly delayed because the callers were not using the 1 -800 Number. Calls made to the local detachment outside of normal busi ness hours 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday to Friday, may not have been answered at all, as the office is closed. This is obviously of great concern to us. Please help us to inform the pub lic that calls requesting OPP ser vice must be made to 1-8OO-265-2525. Calls for general inquiries may still be made to the local detachment during normal business hours. Your assistance with this valu able public service is greatly appre ciated. R. Martin Brown Sergeant Community Services Co-ordina- Better management means better production BY DENNIS MARTIN FARM MANAGEMENT SPECIALIST FOR HURON COUNTY Raising healthy, productive heifers should be a primary goal for successful dairy producers. Heifers that calve al 24 months of age are more profitable because they lower total labour costs, feed costs and fixed overhead costs, while increas ing total lifetime milk production, number of calves bom and rate of genetic improvement. Early calving heifers are just more profitable, in fact, heifers not fresh by 24 months can cost as much as $4/day until calving! To give an example of the amount of dollars lost by raising later calving heifers, let's examine a heifer which calves at 28 months. 28 months - 24 months = 120 days 120 days x $4/day = $480/hcifer In a 50-cow herd with 20 heifers entering the herd annually this rep resents $9,600 - a sizable reason for better heifer management. Feed is a major factor that will influence heifer performance. List ed below are the latest nutrient requirements of growing dairy heifers. 3-6 mos. 6-12 mos. 12+ mos. Max.

Although feed is the major expense, there arc other costs such as labour, housing, breeding, vet and medicine, inter est, and death loss. All these items have a dollar value and should be considered when analyzing your heifer rearing program. PITCH-IN!
