Familiarized with equipment
Dealers
Dealers from Michigan and Ohio
were at Kongskilde Ltd. in Exeter on
Tuesday, beginning a two-day trip
focussing on product education.
Guido Coolman, sales manager for
Kongskilde, said the purpose of the
trip was to familiarize the dealers and
distributors with where their equip-
ment is built. A plant tour was an im-
portant part of the trip. It was also an
opportunity to introduce new products
and do further product education on
products the dealers already carry. to
get market . feedback from the
dealers, and to give awards to the top
dealers.
George Poole, general manager of
the Kongskilde plant, said the trip
visit Kongskilde
should create goodwill for the com-
pany. The. approximately 40 visitors
were treated to a special dinner on
Tuesday night. and went to the
Western Ontario Farm Show in Lon-
don on Wednesday after spending the
night in Grand- Bend.
The trip was originally scheduled to
start on Monday, but had -to be -
delayed because of the severe winter
storm that hit that day. The dealers
were shown a slide show about
Kongskilde soon after arriving on
Tuesday.
Kongskilde has dealers, branches
and distributors in the United States,
and this group were part of the dealer
network in Michigan and Ohio. This

PLAN WORKSHOP
A fall workshop on multiple
sclerosis, sponsored by the Multiple
Sclerosis Association and Huron
County Health Unit, is being planned
in Huron County for early October.
The need for a workshop on multi-
ple sclerosis was identified by the
home care occupational therapist,
Janet Bannerman. A survey to deter-
mine the interest was circulated to
physicians, health care professionals,
persons with multiple sclerosis and
their families.
The results indicated a widespread
need of information on the disease
itself. coping with the disease. and in-
formation on support facilities
available.
Liz Larson, regional consultant
with .the Ontario Multiple Sclerosis
Society was offered to assist in the
planning of the workshop. Other plan-
ning members are Janet Bannerman.
Arlyn Montgomery. Sheryl Gilbert.
The committee welcomes sugges-
tions and any offers of assistance in
developing the workshop, and the
planning committee may be reached
,at the Huron County Horne ('are of-
fice, Clinton.

Tribute given to Pat Lynch
Pat Lynch recently announced that
he would be leaving his O.M.A.F.
position to work as Chief Agronomist
for Cyanamid. Pat is now located in
Cyanamid's Shakespeare office. He is
responsible for establishing a crop
consulting business forCyanamid, as
well as updating their staff with the
newest crop developments. It's timely
to reflect on Pat's contribution during
his time with O.M.A.F.
Pay Lynch made a major impact
on agriculture in Southwestern On-
tario during his twelve years as Soils
and Crops Specialist for Huron and
Perth. Pat had the ability as Soils and
Crops Specialist for Huron and Perth.
Pat had the ability to identify pro-
blems at an early stage and take ac-
tion to resolve them. He knew where
to get specific information that helped
farmers with their decisions. He was
in demand as a speaker and never
failed to bring a concise, informative'
and practical message. Pat had a gift
for writing. His timely and thought
out articles were well read and
resulted in numerous phone calls find
office visitors. Pat called a "spade a
spade" and fanners respected him
for it.
Pat- maximized his contacts by
working cooperatively with
agribusiness. He addressed many
dealer meetings. He initiated crop
clinics where agri -business represen-
tatives and O.M.A.F. staff discuss
solutions to crop problems that they
were encountering in the field.
Pat was concerned with more than
just Soils and Crops. He stressed
economies. He challenged farm
leaders to set goals and make their
organizations more effective. He
delegated responsibility to organiza-
tional directors so that they could con-
tribute new ideas and grow in leader-
ship abilities. Summer students learn-
ed from working with him because he
delegated responsibility. Colleagues
were challenged because he question-
ed ideas and presented nevX ways of
looking at an issue. /
I speak for Pat's former colleagues
in wishing him well in his new
endeavours. We'll miss him in Huron
County. However. it's good to know
that he'll still be involved in
agriculture in this part of
Southwestern Ontario.

Support levels
Agriculture Minister John Wise has
announced that there -will be no defi-
ciency payments for 1983-84 crops of
corn, soybeans, -oats, barley and.
winter wheat. e
Support levels are calculated by
taking 90 percent of the five year
average market prices and adding
the - difference between the year's
cash cost of production and the five-
year average cash cost of production.

Thoughts on leadership
In the 4-H sense, leadership is
guiding people towards useful goals.
These goals are to help the young peo-
ple: U develop self-confidence. 2)
learn to work with others, 3) acquire
a -sense of responsibility. 4) develop
individuals qualities of leadership,
and 5.) develop an appreciation of
agriculture. It is the sharing of your
skills and abilities, as a leader of to-
day's youth. which helps us to achieve
such goals.
Leaders are influencers. It is
through this role that our present 4-H
leaders gain a great deal of satisfac-
tion. When was the last time you
observed a young person tackling and
overcoming - a problem, using the
skills and guidance which you had im-
pressed upon that individual? Do you
remember the pride and gratification
you felt knowing your part as an in-
fluencer was instrumental in his or
her success? This is but one of the
many rewards of taking on a leader-
ship role in the 4-H program.
No one begins leading with all the
characteristics of a leader, but as you
gain experience at leading, you'll
develop the qualities and abilities of
a leader. There are many oppor-
tunities for development in this pro-
gram. All new leaders will have orien-
tation and training for this new and
exciting challenge. There are
