' THAN YEAR AGO Turkeys for the Christians 'festiv- ities appear more plentiful than last Year on some Ontario farms, although in other districts smaller flocks are reported, the Ontario Agriculture De- partment states in its weekly crop report. e t. P Inim o S c e South and Stormont Counties, turkey flocks were said to be larger andmore numerous. But in Lambton and Lincoln, smaller mark- etings were indicated, and Muskoka and Temiskaming producers said turkeys will apparently be in shoe supply, Plentiful poultry and egg supplies were reported in Lincoln, Glengarry, Nipissing and Sudbury Counties, Milk and dairp producers were generally short of demand. Poor heather conditions caused de- lays in corn .picking, particularly in Halton and Lambton, while in Algoma wew,local potatoes or vegetables were being marketed:Farmers in Middle- Sex. and Lincoln were able to start fall plowing when frost left the ground. Rough feeds were generally in pentiful supply, although supplies of concentrates were scarce and farmers said seed grain would be needed, e Keep Most Travelled Highways Open in Winter Regarded as a major advance in winter highway safety and mainten- ance, the Ontario Highways Depart- ment has cofnpieted a plan designed to keep most -travelled highways open ancl, in most cases, ice -free, through- out the winter:' The system is based on special, detailed, twice -a -day weather fore- casts, permitting road gangs to reach threatened areas before 'atoms strike and .on the extended use of chemicals, particularly calcium ehlorule combina- tions developed during the war to keep roads ice -free. • The • Highways Department has completed arrangements with the Dominion Meteorological • Bureau to provide 6 a.m. and 5 p.m. , weather forecasts, more complete than given to the public. These wild be similar to weather data supplied during the war to air services, and still fully utilized in all alt'- transport. • FARM FORUM MEETS The Live Wire Farm Forum of the 13th concession of Kellett, met at the home of Ml's, Clarence Crawford with a very good attendance.
