Gene Woodward, 27, of

whose charred body was
found along Horizon View
Road north of Goderich
March 27.
Following an intensive
investigation by a team of
Ontario Provincial Police
and Michigan State Police,
the woman's identity was
finally established through a
set of wedding rings and con,

The state of Michigan has
initiated extradition
proceedings for prosecution
of Mr. Woodward at

laid by the state, which
would indicate that ac-
cording to evidence the
murder was committed in
Michigan and the body later

Loan interest subsidy
announced for farmers
Ontario., farmers will get
relief from 'high interest
rates under a program
'announced last Thursday by
Lorne • Henderson, Ontario
agriculture minister.
Under the $25 million in-
terest subsidy program ,the
province will subsidize in-
terest rates for short-term
working capital by up to
three percentage points on
money borrowed at over 12
per cent interest. The
maximum amount per
farmer on which subsidy will
be paid is $50,000.
The program is retroac-
tive to April 1 and will run for
nine months, with the sub-
sidy to be paid at the end of
the period or when the
financing is completed.
Mr. Henderson said details
of the program will be
worked out with the Ontario
Federation of Agriculture
and lending institutions. He
added he would like to see
restrictions placed on ( the
program so rich farmers
cannot take advantage of it.
He proposed an equity level
of 50 per cent, meaping that
a farmer must owe more

Lasso plus Banvel controls lambsquarters and
other triazine resistant weeds in corn.
,
Some weeds are so tough, they
can learn to live with atrazine.
And that can sabotage your weed
control program -- unless you
use Lasso® herbicide by Monsanto
plus Banvel.
• Lasso plus Banvel controls many
tough grasses and broadleaves
in corn. Including triazine-resistant
weeds, like lambsquarters.
Just surface apply Lasso plus
Banvel on medium loams to clay .

Don't let triazine-resistant
weeds get out of control. Stop them
