This is the season for colds
and the fever. Many people will
take antihistamines, cold tablets
and perscriptions from doctors
and rive without thinking.
Many of these medicines cause
drowsiness and slows down
reaction time, so before you take
your medicine and drive, read
the labels or ask your doctor.

merits this week concerning pay-
ments being made to wheat
producers across the province.
Board chairman, Fergus Young
R,R,1, Ennismore, advised that
two different payments were
being made.
The first, he said, is a 10 cent
per bushel Marketing Board re-
bate to producers on wheat they
sold during the 1972 crop year.
An explanation of that payment
accompanies the cheque and
states: "The 1972 crop wheat
cheque from the marketing board
is a rebate on the 16 cent per
bushel stabilization levy paid
by producers on wheat they sold
during the crop year July lst,
1972 to June 30th, 1973."
"Total producer sales for the
1972 crop amounted to 14, 778,
429 bushels. The board purchas-
ed and sold 6.2 million bushels
of that total. Money left for
rebate after marketing costs
were paid amounted to 10 cents
per bushel. This rebate closes
out the 1972 crop stabilization
account of the marketing board.
The cheques to some 17, 000
producers were mailed during
the past week, according to the
board chairman.
The second payment, Mr.
Young said, involves the 1973
crop and is an interim payment
of 50 cents per bushel "for
wheat sold by producers during
the three month period between
July 1, 1973 and September 30th,
1973." An accompanying expl-
anation with that payment furth-
er states: "The interim payment
at 50 cents per bushel applies to
all wheat sold during the three
month period on which the init-
ial payment of $1.51 per bushel
had been paid."
"Final payment amount which
is not known at this time will
be made after the 1973 crop yea'
end June 30th, 1974."
The interim payment cheques
to those producers involved are
expected to be mailed this week
Mr. Young further advised
that necessary records have been
forwarded by the marketing
board to the federal government
fox its use in making up cheques
for the two price subsidy pay-
ment to be made by the federal
government to Ontario wheat
producers for wheat they sold
during the 1971-72 and 1972-73
crop years.
Mr. Young said that it is
hoped the federal government
would be making an announce-
ment concerning the two price
payment in the near future.
