CARL HEMINGWAY PIPELINES This is a very troublesome prob- lem to many counties in Southern Ontario. Some counties have as many as seven lines crossing them at different location's. While we are agreed that pipelines are nec- essary to the march of progress, they could be less objectionable if a little organized planning was done in advance. To reduce the damage to farm land, the lines of different com- panies could be run side-by-side in one location, and it would be pos- FARM NEWS Plastics For Storage Of Apples Fruits and vegetables, like all living tissue, absorb oxygen and give off carbon dioxide, a process which is speeded up by increasing the temperature. Thus, when the cellophane bag was introduced, it was found necessary to provide holes in order to prevent the ex- cessive accumulation of carbon dioxide which in turn caused off - flavors and injury to the tissues. But in certain concentrations these gases will slow down the ripening processes in bagged fruit and al- low longer storage. In addition the bag reduces the loss of mois- ture. Plastics such as polyethylene will allow the passage of these gases in varying degrees depending on their thickness while other plas- tics are completely impervious. Recent experiments at the Can- ada Department of Agriculture Experimental Farm, Kentville, N. S., says C. A. Eaves, senior horti- culturist, indicate that Golden Rus- set apples, a variety which is sub- ject to shrinkage, will keep in a much firmer condition if placed in a polyethylene -lined box with the top of the liner folded, but not sealed. On the other hand, under the same conditions, McIntosh ap- ples will develop off -flavors if sealed in these liners, despite the fact that a certain amount of the carbon dioxide escapes through the plastic. Other experiments at Kentville have shown that carload lots of apples can be successfully stored in a Mylar plastic envelope pro- vided that the gas concentration surrounding the fruit is kept with- in the desired limits by ventila- tion. Results to date show that parti- cular varieties of apples respond differently to these treatments but householders who buy apples by the bushel and Wish to use the Alas- tie liners are advised to fold the liners ,after filling rather than sealing them. sible to use a much larger per- centage of less productive land. The companies' first step in gaining a right-of-way is to ap- proach the township council with a very juicy offer on damages and tax grants for permission to cross the township roads. On t h e strength of this, the Provincial Fuel Board, consisting of two lawyers and a geologist, takes the attitude that the community ap- proves the pipeline and is quite willing to approve expropriations of the farmer's land if he refuses the company's offer for a right-of- way. The Federation of Agriculture is requesting legislation, stating that the company must advertise the route of a proposed line locally be- fore seeking leases. Also, that a public hearing, for those directly affected, must be held locally. We, in Huron, have not had this problem to meet, but we are told that within five years gas lines will be spreading throughout the county. We can't and wouldn't keep them out, but good farm land is getting scarcer year by year. Time and effort could be well spent if we could cut this destruction to a minimum by a little foresight. If any of you have been travelling to the southward and have seen these lines under construction, you will realize the seriousness of the situation. Kippen Trophy To Kitchener ill °i int t.
