ONE FOOT IN THE

ft is not often that fame= win battles these days,:
They have been getting tuned dawn ao often hypolitielans
it is a mystery why they keep demanding action Good old
Brampton Bill and his colleagues did promise auppott after
the ateual federation of agriadtmennethat.
Treasurer Frank Miller says something will be done..
A few days ago, three area fume= from Merton, Otte got
what they have been eeking for mare than itia years:
compensation from Interprovmcial Pipe Line Ltd.
Farmers and farm write= were gleeful ahnost three yens
ago when Peter Lewington, Stuart O'Neil and Irwin Lunn
were awarded $120,009 plus arts The judgmegt canes in
1978. The fanners did not get their money. The pipeline
company appealed.
The fight continued.
When Lewiagton, et all, lust started their Het few people
gave them a chance against Vie big company. Peter, in fact,
was snickered at by some d his colleagues. Bid Peter per -
An excellent farm writer, he is also a fine photographer.
The written evidence and the photographs he had to present
to the courts was impossille to ignore. The Ontario Court of
Appeal on Nev. 16 tuned down the contpany's last pamige
avenue of appeal The compeers application 1011 net be
heard.
The three farmers were awarded 6120,009 plus court costs
and interest. Total ainotmt: $143,000.
"As 1 see the law, that's the ad of it," John Brownlie,
company lawyer, is quoted as saying.
No doubt Peter and his &folds hope that is the end of it.
Agriculture got another boost, too, when the Boman

other words, — Cavendish Farms —willprodti�thefr

The church then, all reports are correct, shares the fesrs
of the fanners.
Refreshing, WM?
I suppose a great many other organizations are syn -
athletic to agriculture. Cortainly, many speakers fee other
religious denomnation' s have spoken out strongly for
agriculture, notably the United Church, the Mennonite'
Church and theAngiteanChurck As is the case down through
the ages, churches — ad least most of them are chute to the

Huron farmers should
evaluate hybrids on test plots
By Ross Haugh
Members tithe Hutson Soil
and Crop Improvement
Association attentfmg their
recent annual meeting were
told to use their own test
plots. Jim O'Toole, a
researcher at Centralia
College of Agricultural
Technology suggestedHuron
farmers evaluate hybrids on
their own farms.
He added, 'We rely on
your farm research_ Keep
your test plots from getting
too large. Be selectiVe, about
a half acre maximum".
He centime& "Select a
uniform location, keep soil
and fertilizer texture lewd
and put a special effort on
weed control".
On corn hybrids, D'Ibole
said, "plant hybrids of
afferent mattnities wi sin
to eight rows of each. Six
would be ideal and then use
the fair rows hi the middle.
Keep fe test ongoing and
use at least two years of
information before making a
Other advice from the
researcher was, -check
germination arid emergence,
note flowering dates and
record weattrer conations.
Retiring president Larry
Wheatley talked about the
past and the future of the
organization_ ''e said,
-When this group was for-
med 38 years) ago, the ob-
jective was to help farmers

the advantages of clean

He confirmed. "'His ob-
jective has been ac-
complished through our
efforts at seed fairs,
°manning bus tours, etc. No
matter how unique or new
we may think our projects
are today, the end resaft is
still thesame, creating 'in the
farmer an awareness el the
advantages el good seed and
sod management."
9 believe we can learn
from the past Some of MX
projects such as crag
rotation and red clover
piowdown are methods otos
fathers used as a matter of
course each year, realizing
then the advantages we are
seeing now."
The past !resided con-
cluded_ "Instead of dreading
the future and pretlicting
terrible times ahe.ad perhaps
we should examine the
causes of our problems and
me the experiences of our
past to remedy then."
After the election a
directors Wheatley made a
few comments regarding a.
recent runoff of sewage from
the town of Wingham into the
Maitland River. Be added.
-No one should be allowed to
do a thing blue this where
they let a whole week's raw
sewage into the river. It's
ternide. It shouldn't be
allowed to lumen. Pollution
from this went all the vray to
the beach at Goderidn"
Commenting on the
various corn trials which
tome held throsthout Ham,
soil and crops specialist Pat
Lynch said. "Yields jumped
up again showing what a
great corn year Mil yeas."
The average of 45 tests in
Huron in 1960 was 96 bushels
per acre. The figurethispast
year was 113 bushels per
acre acconfmg to 64 tests.
The results n Perthwere 104
bushels this year, an in-
creased rinebushels.
The heat units measured
at four locations were a bit
lower than they were a year
egOL, At Centralia' College
this year's heat units we

1960. The normal figure is
2,863.

Hugh Scott's farm at Staffa

1991and2,707 as thertormat
Rainfall in 1981 was
considerabley more than the
previous year. At the Scott
farm which is located in
Hibbert township' , there was
763.4 millimetres as opposed
to 636.6 a year ago.
The biggest increase was
at the F. Krell farm in
Fullerton township with 606
