Crown Attorney Robert Morris told Judge R.G. Hunter that Charles Indoe and another man had alleged­ ly kicked in the locked entrance door of a Victoria St. apartment in Gorrie on Jan. 1. Duty Counsel John Schenk said Mr. Indoe has been trying to make restitution to apartment owner, Dale McLean, but felt that the amount was unreasonable. "He has checked around at hardware stores and it seems the price being asked is about four times what he feels is proper," said Mr. Schenk. Mr. Morris presented a court record from Stratford dated Nov, 5, 1987, which listed charges against Mr. Indoe of break and enter, theft over and under $1,000 and mis­ chief. Judge Hunter gave Mr. Indoe 60 days to make restitution in the amount of $200 or spend 10 days in jail. Strip planting profits too good to quit, man says Continued from page 16 across the field. The rotation then moves each crop over one strip each year. The rotation helps because the wheat has ripened and needs no water by about the time waler is needed most by the beans and the com. These crops can then reach out, under the wheat strip, for added moisture. "I wouldn't want to grow com unless it was in a row," he told his audience. The yield in the row sys­ tem is just too good. He increased the plant population in the outer rows of the strip from 32,000 to 33,000 in the middle rows to 45,000. Over three years he has averaged 207 bushels to the acre. He feels he is picking up at least an additional 30 bushels per acre using the strip method. "People who don't grow com in a strip are crazy." He says he also likes the diversi­ ty of crops on his acreage which makes it as close to nature as possi­ ble. He says he isn't trying to tame nature now as he did when he tried to grow com on com on com. "We trade input costs for better manage­ ment," he says. Ridge tilling helps in water man­ agement, he says. The water sits in the ridges long enough to seep into the ground rather than rushing over it and causing erosion. "I want to keep my water as long as I can because I don't know when the next rain will come. If your water does­ n't leave the farm you don't have to worry about pesticide residue (pol­ lution)." Ridge tilling is not a substitute for good drainage, he said but it can still bring better yields on poorly drained lands than conventional tillage. Asked about yields under drought conditions, he said that last year when the township average in his area under a drought was about 100 bushels of com per acre, his yield was 150. "I'm trying to farm for when the weather isn’t perfect and the price isn't good," he said. "If we can ever get good prices and good weather we can do really well. "Low input farming doesn't mean low output farming if you do it right."
