The victory elim- inated the northern team in two straight games. Meyer In Shape Arn Meyer, classy right-hander of the local's mound staff, pitch- ed a spectacular game, giving up only four scattered hits over the nine inning route, and striking out 13 Hanover batters. He walk- ed none. For the first four innings Meyer pitched perfect ball, facing only 12 men in succession. In the first inning he retired the side via the strikeout route. The only time he was in any kind of trouble was in the eighth, when the first two Hanover batters both singled, but he settled down to strike out the - next three in order. There was not a single inning in which he failed to strike out at Ieast one batter. OAC Suggests Hog Reduction , ut Not Cut i ut Entirely "Looks like Canada's hog pro- duction will go over the eight million mark in 1959—a good one and a half million more hogs than last year and 38 percent above the average for the last five years. And Ontario which ac- counts for one third of the coun- try's total is heading for anall- time high," comments R. P. For- shaw of the Animal Husbandry Department at the OAC. "As of May 31. stocks of pork in storage were almost three and a half tunes as heavy as in the three previous years, even though our domestic consumption and ex- ports to the US have beenwell ahead of a year ago. As this stor- ed pork must eventually come on the domestic market or be export- ed, it will have a depressing effect on price until storage supplies are down to normal levels." "Production to date is still run- ning about 40 percentheavier than a year ago," says Forshaw. "However. the Dominion Bureau of Statistics indicates that there will be a gradual reduction to the 1958 level. Only a general cutting back in production will bring our supply and demand in better bal- ance." How should a farmer adjust to the intended drop in floor price on October 1? The floor price is expected to drop from $25 to $23.- 65 per hundred weight for Grade A carcasses at Toronto. Says Forshaw: "The floor price of $23.65 for A grade will result in a drop in price of about $2 per hog. This will almost certainly cause a slowing down in pig pro- duction. The individual farmer is advised to cut back—but not cut out his swine unit. In 1953, when the support price was reduced from $26 to $23, there was a very marked drop in hog production. This resulted in a $40 price in July, 1954 at a time when many farmers had gone completely out of pigs. Such marked changes aren't in the best interest of the individual farmer or the swine in- dustry". Other suggestions: when pig prices are low, Forshaw says far- mers have a chance to improve the quality of their breeding stock. Good boars including those eligible for the bonus paid by the Ontario Department of Agricul- ture will be more plentiful. And at the lower prices, the $2.50 bon- us for A grade carcasses will take on more importance. "Anything a farmer can do such as selecting better breeding stock, feeding balanced rations, and marketing at lighter weights. will improve his returns. At the same time, it will prepare him for the price rise when it occurs." Ititt Only two of the Hanover play- ers ever reached third base dur- ing the game. In the fifth, play- ing manager Bob Zister hit saf- ely, went to second on a Zurich error and stole third, where he was left stranded. In the ninth 'Red" Theander reached first on a Zurich error, stole second, and advanced to third on a routine ground ball. Pitchers' Battle While Meyer was capably hand- ling the Hanover batters the lo- cals were having trouble getting base hits off the slants of `Windy' Wendorf, who pitched a neat four - hitter for the northern boys. All four hits were well scattered. Wilson Homers Johnny Wilson produced the only earned run for Zurich, in the fourth inning, when he hoisted one of Wendorf's pitches over the right field fence. The drive was Wilson's second homer in the play offs; The first Zurich run came in the first inning, when Doug O'- Brien led off with a walk, stole second, advanced to third on a ground ball, and scored when Bill Yungblut reached first on an er- ror to the Hanover third base- man. The next run was scored in the third, when Doug O'Brien lined out a double over the centre field- er's head, went to third on an er- ror, and then scored when Bill Craig grounded out to the first baseman, Wilson's homer in the fourth made the score 3-0, and the locals added another in the fifth. This run came when Arn Meyer lined out a single down the third base line, stole second, reached third on an error to the left fielder and then scored on an error to the third baseman on the same play, which let Danny Trushinski go all the way round to third. The fourth Zurich hit came in the seventh, when Pete Masse led off with a single, but was left stranded on third. Only one double play was pulled off in the game, that by Hanover in the sixth. Fast Game A large turnout of fans were on hand to see the game, which was played in a record time of only one hour and fifty minutes.

Miles, Agricultural Representative for Huron) "A few fields of grain unharvested, but harvest of coarse grain is, generally, completed. "White bean harvest is taking place under ideal weather condi- tions. Both yield and quality is higher than originally expected. "A great deal of fall plowing remain 1 and after harvest cultivation is taking place. Sorne fall wheat has been sown but most of the crop will go in next week, It would be expected that higher acreage will be sawn than in 1958. "There was a fairly active movement of finished s?;eers to market last week."
