Even at Port Franks, the thickness of ice on The Cut was never really great enough to pose an ice jam - [rung threat. At the present tune, all rivers and streams are mainly free of ice. The Ausable-Bayfield Con- servation Authority is maintaining the Parkhill reservoir at its winter holding level to provide the maximum possible storage in the event of a large runoff event occurring. The return of winter -like weather during the week of March 21 should serve as a reminder that the threat of spring floods cannot be entirely forgotten. There are basically two situations that could produce flooding problems. One would be heavy rains falling on frozen ground and the other would be heavy rains falling on ground that has become saturated from previous precipitation. In either case, the heavy rains would almost entirely drain directly into the stream systems. Depending on the amount of this runoff, flooding situations could develop very quickly. The Conservation Authority will continue to monitor run-off conditions and should the threat of flooding become likely the Authority is ready to warn member municipalities through its flood warning system. The Conservation Authority is also concerned about the potential for soil erosion on farmlands within the Ausable and Bayfield watersheds. Until such time as planting is completed and the crops have grown enough to provide cover for the soil, there is a high potential for soil erosion. Hopefully, no unusually large rainfall events will occur during the rest of the spring, and therefore there will not be any flooding problems. ree , ers ®note A Constructive Breeder Award was presented to the Dalevilla herd of Lloyd and Betty Dale of Seaforth, at the recent annual meeting of the Canadian Jersey Cattle Club in Cornwall. During the qualifying period (1981 and 1982) records were completed with average B.C.A.'s of (173- 171). l'he 34 classified cows M the herd during this period averaged 86.6 percent. Also during the qualifying period 36 Honor Roll Record cer- -tificates were awarded to cattle in this herd. A herd of this size requires 14 points to win the award. In this case 36 points were attained. Com- , etion The Rad Shop on King Street in Clinton is not to be confused with the new business Elliott's Rad Shop on Albert Street. It seems that some in- correctly read a March 23 News -Record story on the new business opening, Elliott's Rad Shop. PITCH IA DRYSIALE MAJOR APPLIANCE CENTRE LTD.
