Blyth - 523-4256 i t� aid lidustriai milk pr.J.c*Iu The Welke =tea Oilice of We Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food continue to process a large number og Industrial Milk Loan applications, as u aattay farmers take advantage or this program. It is felt that the details of the Lean are not well tumuli and that the loan has application to many dairy farmers who are not using it. The official name is the "In- dustrial Milk Production Incen- tive ?rev am 1973", but it is more commonly known as "mills loan". For is reason many farmers associate the loan withe purchase of ocy cows and quota and applying only to Industrial milk producers. The program is much more broad th n this. As the name states it is an Industrial Milk In- centive program. ,It therefore, applies to all cream producers, Group 1 and Group II milk ship- pers. Many Group I producers seem unaware of this fact. They must remember that a percen- tage of their production goes into the Industrial milk market and therefore they are eligible for the loan. Secondly the loan may be used for improvemehts in any as- pect of the total dairy operation. This includes buildings, stables, stable cleaners, feeding systems, milking equipment and coolers as well as cows and Industrial quota. The loan will be available up until June aoth, 1974 and it offers a- refund of 20 per cent of the principal, providing commit ments of the loan are met. Any dairyman considering any of the previously mentioned changes should • obtain more details of the programfrom the nearest Ontario Ministry of Agri- culture and Food office. "I1 you can td`rn them on with your clothes ort, you're right on top." HOW CAN /??? :HGORDON BeAnne Ashley I GREEN Q. Please comment on the care of painted wood floors. A. These took better and are much caster to keep in gclock.coOticm if they are waxed. Wash with warm water and child soap. Use fine steel wool dipped in liquid or paste wax or a mild scouring 'powder to remove stubborn spots and marks made by rubber heels. Q. How can I improvise cream of tartar for a cake recipe, when I don't have the real thing on hand? A. Buttermilk is \a good substitute for cream of tartar. If the buttermilk isn't sour enough, add a little vinegar. Q. How can 1, when painting win- dow frames, mask the, glass when .I have no real masking tape on hand? A. Cut a sheet of newspaper to the size of the window pane, dampen it, and ,press it tightly against the glass. This will do a good job of keeping your glass free of paint spatters. Q. How can I remove ink spots from wallpaper? A. Touch lightly with water and apply a blotter, then treat with oxalic acid. If the color of the paper is affected by the acid, touch up these spots with water colors or a wax crayon.

Walkerton, up �in. Bruce County, population,,; 4,500, the mif a 'S Ural is 9 lovely -plslic0:. just on the edge of town. Here for years, Bob inner has milked his own fine Hols ins and processed the milk in his own dairy about 50 yards away. An underground stainless steel pipe carried the milk from milking parlor to the dairy without any chance of con- tamination, and there it was cool- ed, pasteurized, homeogenized and then bottled or put into plastic the same as in a city dairy a hundred times bigger before being delivered to the doorsteps of the town. And everybody was reasonably happy — everybody in those days being just two parties in this case, Mr. Walker and his customers. Then seven or eight years ago the province began' to lay the groundwork for a brand new marketing scheme. Realizing the fact that the average milk pro- ducer was not getting nearly enough money for his production, it formed, a Milk Marketing Board with the legal right to buy and sell all the milk produced in the entire province. Just how this could transpire in a country where monopolies are both im- moral and illegal, remains a my- stery to many of us, but the new board was given dictatorial powers and it began exercising those powers almost im- mediately. . And what did this mean to Bob Walker and the enterprise he had worked so hard to build? Well the Walker Holsteins are still there, and twice a day they present their offering in the same milking parlor. But the people of Walker- ton no longer have a chance to buy that milk because the Milk Board in its almighty power and wisdom has decreed that it must all be picked up by one of the duly authorized truckers and taken over a hundred miles to Toronto. Bob Walker still runs his own dairy however, but the milk he now delivers to his customers must come from the Board which sends it all the way from Barrie, over a hundred miles away in another direction. And as his contribution to this great improvement on the marketing of milk, Mr. Walker must now pay the Board $296 every month for haulage, plus $90 for what the Board claims is 'promotion', plus another $8 which simply bears the label of 'miscellaneous'. Or to sum the whole thing up in a single statistic, the operation which the Milk Board has forced upon Mr. Walker, and which the Supreme Court of Canada upheld when Bob Challenged it, now costs him X94 a month. And you wonder why the price of milk is so high? plant"? ...�A. Try, dipping cucumber sliccsjn beaten egg, then in fine bread"-ciVribs., then fry them. They taste like egg, plant, and add variety to any meal. Q. How can I keep pancakes from, sticking on the•griddle? A. By rubbing your,griddle or fry- ing pan with half a peeled potato, instead of grease. Cut off a slice of potato for each batch of pancakes, so that your rubbing is'always done with a freshly cut side. Q. What can I do about a shellacked surface that has become gummy? A. Remove the gummy shellac with denatured alcohol. And in the future, don't use shellac that is more than about six months old. Q. How can I recondition shred- ded coconut that has become hard and tough? A. By heating it over hot water. Many other such tips for use in the kitchen are included in my new house- hold manual, Q. How can I clean plastic furni- ture? A. This should be dusted regularly. A camp cloth is usuallyall that is needed. It can be washed with a mild soap or detergent. Rinse with a clotty wrung out of clear warm water, and wipe dry. Do not use any chemical aids, such as ammonia, on plastic furniture. Caution: autumn leaves That innocent -looking pile of leaves might be anything but innocent, warns the Ontario Safety League. Piled -up leaves are a natural attraction for children. They roll in them, throw them, and one of their favorite tricks is covering themselves up completely and hiding. That's fine in the yard at home, but•when this little game is played in the street it's an open invitation to tragedy. What can the driver do about it? Assume that there is a child or pet in every pile of leaves you see in or near the street. Avoid driv- ing through a pile of leaves and expect the unexpected—meaning specifically a child leaping out of a covering of leaves and dashing in front of your vehicle. INTERESTING FILM NOW AVAILABLE The Credit Valley Conservation Authority has produced a beauti- ful movie on the Niagara Escarp- ment, available on request for school classes and interested groups. It is called "Silurian Legacy" and can be borrowed by contacting the Authority's in- formation officer at Meadowvale, Ontario. y7 Now I admit that.I think the co- 4 operative idea is a good one for any prime Produua r:;: and for the farmer it is perhaps the only one that will save him from being swallowed up by the big fellows. And I don't .doubt for a minute that for many dairy farmers the Board has been a good thing. But if anyone will come front and centre and explain to me how being forced to export your milk to Toronto and then import milk. to take its place from Barrie can benefit anyone but the bureau- crats and the truckers, I'll return the favor by explaining in detail, Einstein's Theory of Relativity.
