"Based on the evidence available, we are predicting more variation in heat units and rainfall from year to year than we have had in the past decade," says Dr. Gillespie. What this means to farmers is that the growing season in future years may be a bit shorter than current con- ditions. Examples, of possible planning strategies to deal with 'the changes are: planting a corn hybrid which requires less heat units than normally recommended or "The farmers won't lose much yield; and with the earlier maturation of the shorter -season hybrid, they can save on artificial drying costs if some of the drying can be done in the field," he added. Dr. Gillespie said that farmers farther north may have to shift some soybean and corn acreage into other crops such as winter wheat or barley. According to research, temperatures have been sliding slowly downward since the peak in the mid- 1950s. 01 NOMINATIONS TOWN OF CLINTON Notice is hereby given to the Municipal Electors of the Town of Clinton in the County of Huron that the period during which nomination papers may be filed in the office of the clerk for the purpose of municipal elections will commence on Feb. 14, 1977 at the hour of 9 o'clock, and close on Feb. 17, 1977 at the hour of 5 o'clock, for the purpose of nominating fit and proper persons for the offices) of 1.

CLINTON My 83 -year-old brother has lived with us since his wife died last June. He is an American citizen but was born in Ontario. How long does he have to wait until he can get a drug benefit card? How can I get him landed immigrant status? Can I get him a Canadian Social Number? We try our best to answer problems re. Immigration when we get them, but sometimes our efforts are hampered because a local office is apt to ask us questions that we are not in a position to answer, so we have found it quickest to send the reader the local number' that he or she should call.
