Farmers union to present brief to federal gov't. The National Farmers Union in Ontario plans . to present a brief to the federal government in Ottawa April 22. The decision was made during a meeting of directors and local presidents at Walton April 1'0, following study of a draft paper for a farm - emergency measures program to combat the present financial crisis. Joe Casey, Ontario. NFU coordinator, said the people attending the meeting were quite aware that farmers are not the only group suffering, but explained that the issue affecting farmers should concern everyone because the production of food is at stake. He said the farm situation is so badthat many farmers are facing Bankruptcy; others rack operating capital for the year's 'operations and still others, will cut back on growing crops or livestock. `"Theeffects of the present situation.will come back in the future to haunt food supply and prices," he predicted. • Mr. Casey said both .provincial and federal govern- ilignts must iiimedia'ely take ' actionto relieve pressure for the present, and must also put in place national orderly marketing programs for all farm products. This would, as far as possible, eradicate a speculative marketing system which is incapable of returns to farmers based on production costs with reasonable income on labor and investment. He declared he is becoming impatient with farmers for allowing self-appointed, so- called experts to dictate what they believe is good fbr.,far.- mers. "It's timefor the silent farmers to speak up, and it's time that the government started to listen." •He said one of the most urgent needs is for some type of moratorium on farm debts which threater . a : armer's ownership or tenure. "The NFU doe, not b• neve eve . guyernmeut'•sho{l, stand by and allow good, harc ;orking family farmers to he wit d out," he declared. • The solution Is shown below.

He also predicted there will be more drinking and conse- quently police will have to carry out more checks of cars, which will lead to more criticism of them 'for harass- ment of youths.

'Just as in hockey, it takes two good lines to win. One on the ice, keeping pressure on the opponent, while the other gets a breather. The same applies to corn rootworm insecticides. University researchers say the best way to keep rootworms from building up resistance to insecticides is to alternate organophosphate and carbamate insecticides each year. To keep your rootworm attack going strong, every year, alternate these two good lines: Carbamate Line: FURADAN ® insecticide. This hard-hitting carbamate insecticide controls corn rootworms on contact. Then it is absorbed by roots to provide long-lasting residuat,control of rootworms'which hatch later in the season, This protects feeder roots needed tor fast, vigorous growth. And it protects brace roots needed to prevent lodging and harvest losses. The net result: more corn_ Thohardpurple granules 1:'vr1't bridge or cake in the applicator, either.
