A mixture of oats and faU rye,
one bushel of oats, one and a half
bushels of rye per acre, seeded
now- will make good fall pasture.
and reduce ,the load on permanent
pastures and meadows. . It will
take from three to four weeks
after seeding before it is ready to
pasture. The oats grow faster
than the rye, so pasturing can
start sooner than if only rye Were.
sown. If the field is early ' and
well drained, the rye will provide.
early spring pasturebefore other
pasture crops are ready. This is
also a decided advantage when
the hay mow is low.
The catch of, new seeding will
probably depend on favourable
weather forthe rest of the fall.,
At present, it doesn't look too
good. Faced with the prospect of
failure of this spring's seeds some
farmers are considering fall seed-
ing to be sure of a hay crop next
summer. The success of fall seed-
ing will likely depend on favour-
able weather for growth in the
fan, and not too severe' a winter.
Seeding can be without a nurse
crop or with a very light seeding
of oats, which will give some pro-
tection, and then die over winter.
If attempting a fall seeding for
the first time, remember these
points:
. 1. Grasses are likely to be more
successful than clovers. Timothy,
orchard grass, brome and perren-
ial rye grass are 'suitable.- Red
Clover, alsike, sweet clover or al-
falfa can be used in the mixture
and with favourable conditions
will- survive.
2. Seed as early as possible to
get the greatest possible growth
and root development this fall.

Summer Heat
This year, reports the Huron
District, Department of Lands
and Forests, will be very discour-
aging for tree planters as, in many
instances nearly all the trees
planted last spring have died due
to the extreme drought and heat.
In addition, trees which had
survived one or two years died.
Individual trees that had been
growing for five to ten years also
died. White pine and white spruce
appear to be species that suffered
most. A cedar hedge planted in
the fall o'f 1953,' which survived
through 1954, died this past sum-
mer.
This year is the worst year for
loss due to drought since 1922
when the first county forest was
started.
A plan to promote improvement
in the merchandising, marketing
and production of beef will be
undertaken by the Ontario Beef
Producers' Association. It will be
financed by means of small deduc-
tions from the • returns on cattle
and calves, accofding to an an-
nouncement by the association
president, Harold J.' Huffman of
Blenheim.
In announcing the plan, Mr.
Huffman stated that deductions
of ten cents per head en cattle
and five cents on calves would' be
made on all animals sold through
public stockyards or direct to
packing plants in Ontario, begin-
ning Monday, September 26, 1955.
Mr. Huffman said his executive
had been authorized by the an-
nual meeting last April to proceed
with the details of such a plan.
Since that time they have been
busy ironing out these details and
gaining the cooperation of the
various sections of the industry
which will be involved in one way
or another. - For example, he
points out that the only practical
method of having the deductians,
made was through the offices of
the dealers and commission agents
who sell cattle and calves on the
yards and through the packers
when the animals go directly to
their plants. This means consider-
able extra office detail for these
businesses, but all of them have
agreed to cooperate because they
feel the plan proposed try the Beef
Producers' Association will bene-
-fit all phases of the industry.
Once those deductions ,are made,
they will be forwarded in full to
the association treasury on a
Monthly basis.
The plan has been discussed
with government officials as well
'as the trade and Mr.' Huffman
feels that many of the potential
"bugs" which inevitably develop
when something new is started,
have already been ironed out. In-
deed, Ontario, Minister of Agri-
culture, Hon: F. S. Thomas, told
the association officers that he -
was very pleased with the self-
helpappro a,ch• they were making
to their problems.
While the plan provides that
the deductions will be made on all
cattle and calves going direct to
packing plants or sold on public
stockyards in Ontario, it is point-
ed 'but that the plan is a volun-
tary. one. Should any producer
feel he did, not wish to contribute,.
he can obtain a refund of the full
amount of his deductions by con-
tacting the association, treasurer
within'60 days and giving full de-
tails of the transaction. However,
president Huffman .feel's sure. the
number of such requests, will be
few, since there is little a beef
producer can do for .the small
amount of the deduction which
can, in the long run, pay such
good dividends.
Huffman said that thebeef
producers that is the farmers
who produce commercial beef
cattle—had ,come to realize they
must take steps to further ism,
prove their production, marketing
and: merchandising methods, if
they are to compete successfully
with other branchesofthe food
industry. Moreover, these other
branches are . blowing their horns
rather loudly in praise of their.
products. The beef producers feelr
it is time they did some "tooting"
for beef .and this plan is intended
to help therm,' do just that,
