Be safe, not sorry
Since 1975, par-
ticipation in the sport of
snowmobiling has in-
creased by 25 percent in
Canada and the United
States. Yet, at the same
time, snowmobile related
fatalities have decreased
by 37 percent.
The reduction in ac-
cidents and significantly
improved safety record is
due to better educated
riders, improved and
more plentiful trails and
technological ad-
vancements in increasing
the safety of the
machines.

To protect plants
against the rigors of an
Ontario winter, many
horticulturists recom-
mend using winter
mulches. Snow cover
sometimes provides
plants adequate
protection against the
cold, but good snow cover
cannot be depended upon
in some parts of the
province.
To protect tender
garden perennials, in-
cluding roses, Bob
Fleming, a horticulturist
with the Ontario Ministry
of Agriculture and Food
suggests using a 15 to 20
cm layer of mulch.
Materials such as straw,
strawy manure or
evergreen boughs make
good mulches.
For best results from
mulch, apply it after the
ground has frozen two to
five cm. Mulching too
early may attract mice
and other rodents and
result in damage to
plants.
"Don't be in a hurry to
remove the mulch early
in the spring," advises
Fleming. "An unex-
pected spring storm may
ruin an exposed plant."

A tasty favorite and the
perfect finishing touch to
the traditional Christmas
turkey dinner is cran-
berry sauce. Food
specialists at the Ontario
Ministry of Agriculture
and Food report that
Ontario cranit'serries are
grown in th °�n,Muslto e
area around; crier on
about 30 acres df'` land
situated on the Iroquois
reservation. The growing
and harvesting
operations are managed
by the Iroquois Cran-
berry Growers.
- An excellent crop,
resulting in 360,000
pounds of• harvested
cranberries, was grown
this year. The size of the
crop is expanding and
there is hope that the
acreage will be increased
even further:
Ontario -grown cran-
berries are used ex-
clusively for processing.
For excellent, fresh
flavor and bright color,
be sure to look for the
glass - jars of Ontario -
processed cranberries at
your favorite super-
market.
