In this regard, Bill Mungall of the Ausable- Bayfield Conservation Authority and Ian Des Laurier of the Maitland showed slides and described various erosion and pollution control projects which have been completed. Mungall said his Authority had a maximum of $2,000 for projects for any in- dividual farm project while the Maitland limit was $10,000. Jim O'Toole of Cen- tralia College talked about Proso Millet which is grown commercially in the United States for bird seed, but, is causing problems in Huron as a weed, especially in corn fields. O'Toole said the millet is an annual and this year was found mainly in the Seaforth-Clinton areas and possibly as far south as Hensall and is resistant to most ,chemicals used for corn. Two resolutions were presented . to members and were passed. They will be forwarded to the Ontario annual meeting in late January in Ottawa. They. asked for ' in- creased efforts for research on rootworm control in corn and in- creased research in white bean breeding. Huron's Ag Rep Don Pullen told the audience on the subject of the 1979 crop year, "You should be thankful. It could have been a lot worse." Pullen suggested there could be a considerable reverse in acreage of soybeans and white beans for 1980. He said, "Soybean acreage this year doubled to 16,000 acres in Huron and white beans dropped to about 30,000 acres. With the good white bean yield and the problems en- countered in soybean harvesting and reduced yield, white bean acreage next year can be ex- pected to go back up. During his remarks, Pullen congratulated Seaforth area farmer Russell Bolton on winning the world hay cham- pionship for the eighth consecutive year. Huron farmers have taken the hay crown 18 out of the last 20 years. Don Rader of Hay township, current president of the Soil and Crop Association was chairman for the evening's program. He is being replaced as the Hay township representative by Ray Hartman.

Two Auburn trustees were in attendance for part of the meeting. Building permits were authorized for S. Owen (paint • shop) and W. Creighton (house).

Two major package tour operators are collecting substantial cancellation charges from those who cancel because of the fuel sur- charges, he added. "Those consumers lose out either way. Recently, for example, fuel sur- charges amounted to almost $100 per person for a one-week fly -cruise vacation. Cancellation charges would have pst over $400 per person. That's really no choice at all," said Mr. Drea. Most major package tour operators in Ontario have allowed travellers to cancel a trip without cost if they are not prepared to pay the extra charges. Customers notified of the surcharges usually have up to 10 days to either pay the ad- ditional amount or cancel the trip without penalty. "Read the fine print in travel brochures at the time of booking," said Mr. Drea. "Make sure you unjerstand the conditions of a particular package. If they are not clear, ask your travel agent so there will be no misunderstanding later." ARE YOU LIVING WITH A DRINKING PROBLEM? Al -Anon can help! PHONE 524-6001 OR WRITE P.O.
