Do your cattle milk out better, to the sounds of Charlie Pride? As many people have known for a long time, animals are affected by music. Actually, you should be aware of how all types of sound affect livestock. The intensity of sound is measured 'in decibels (dB). The current allowable noise level in factories for eight- hour ighthour exposure is 90 dB. The frequency of sound has different effects on animals and humans. The human earls most sensitive in the range of 1000 to 3000 Hz. while cattle are most sensitive to sounds with a frequency of 8000 Hz. Sudden lound, "impact -type" sounds are very stressful and frightening to animals. Sheep were tested for growth rates in six different sound environments.

"The agreement marks tie setransition from an d1l'fition phase to the commercial reality of. the Energy Centre," Malcolm Rowan, President of the Ontario Energy Corporation, stated. "This critical step provides the opportunity to pursue some real growth and development in the Bruce area," he added. "Steam supply could be available within 24 months," said Hydro Chairman Hugh Macaulay. He said the Hydro Board approved the prin- cipal details of the agreement at its meeting recently, held at the Bruce project. The developmental rates for the steam agreed to by both parties will apply up to and including 1987. The agreement can be renewed for five additional periods of five years. "The availability of this additional form of energy should provide new economic opportunities for the area and the province," said Macaulay. The agreement provides for the delivery by Ontario Hydro of an initial supply of 250,000 pounds per hour of medium pressure (150 psig) steam from the Bruce The homemade bake table is a- lways a popular spot at Colborne Township's Christmas Country Fair.

A letter of intent has also been exchanged between Ontario PowerShare Ltd. and the Bruce Energy Centre Development Cor- poration for the sale of steam to customers within the energy park, Rowan ex- plained. The Bruce Energy Centre Development Corporation was established in June 1981 to co-ordinate and manage all aspects of the industrial - agricultural - aquacultural facility. The steam supply agreements follow the recent appointment of Ralph Jones as General Manager of the Bruce Energy Centre Development Corporation. "Negotiations and discussions with the first major industrial tenant of the energy park are un- derway," Jones stated. "The steam supply agreements are key to the success of the project and mark a real breakthrough in the energy centre's development," he added. Good fit is important. Children will be walking from house to house so the costume should be large enough to allow unrestricted movement. Also, there should be ample room for warm clothing underneath if needed. However, keep the costume a reasonable length to avoid tripping. Avoid plastic fabrics or similar types. They don't allow moisture to evaporate away from the body, and may cause chills, especially on a cold October night. Also avoid crepe paper which is flammable. Increase your child's safety by using light-colored fabrics or by attaching reflective tape to clothing. Two types of tape are available. Reflective tape reflects oncoming light, such as car headlights, directly to its source. Fluorescent tape seems to glow because it emits light and i reflects it off its surfacg.'Thils, this type of tape is very bright during the day but is not as effective at night. Reflective tape is the best choice for your child's costume. Masks are not recom- mended because they can be dangerous if they hamper vision. To create a dramatic or comical face, use makeup instead Here are some final tips to create a safe Halloween costume. Avoid dangling parts that could get caught in gates or railings. Don't secure the costume with safety pins that could open if the child falls. These guidelines are recommended not only for costumes on Halloween, but can be followed for your child's every day clothing too. WE HAVE BOOTS FOR EVERY MEMBER OF THE FAMILY Main Street Seaforth 527-1110 posed to instrumental music at 75 dB gained weight faster than all other groups, in- cluding the control group. Soft instrumental music is recommended for all types of livestock. It has a soothing effect on them. The heart beat is lowered, indicating they are not under stress. When handling livestock, avoid making sudden lound noises. A skilled, quiet handler making only a small "ssshh" noise can move more livestock per hour than a handle r who yells. Knowing how different types of sounds affect livestock may help you to decide what to aim for or avoid in the animal's, en- vironment. I'm not trying to get everyone to rush out and buy stereos and Mozart records like on the TV commercial. Just keep in mind that livestock have ears and they are affected by what they year. - Ron Fleming Agricultural Engineer.
