Trinity Anglican Church in Blyth is officially 100 years old on Saturday. The congregation is having social tea on the lawn at the rectory Saturday, and two services on Sunday to commemorate the. occasion. The church was built 10 accon1nuula1e the growing number of parishioners from Blyth, Bclgiave and Auburn areas. The building committee, Chas, Hamilton. .1.11. 'Thompson, 'IhonlasNicholson, and John BlackliruIf, decided in 1878 to hire Mr. Fitch of Winghanl as architect with the construction wntract being awarded to Mr. Young of Auburn for $3,200. To save money, Mr. R. Howard of the congregation, did the brick - .work. The style was to be Gothic, with 0 75 foot tower on the corner of the plain body of the church, which was to be 34 feet by 50 feet, with a chancel 12 feet by 18 feet, and a vestry 8 feet by 10 feet. But the job was not to be easy. In August before the church was tx)nlplcted, when a severe thunderstorm passed over Blyth, the church roof was blown off and the end wall crashed down. In spite of this set back, the church was finished and the first service was held December 29, 1878, less than eleven months from when the decision was made to build. Early in this century the spires were felt to be unsafe and were removed and this was the start of improvements and changes made over the years. The parish includes Auburn, Bclgrave, Brussels, and Blyth, all to be covered by one minister who at present is Rev, Dan Sargent. Trinity has had 26 rectors during the 100 years. All of them working closely with the communities. Rcv. W.B. Hawkins stayed the longest term of 12 years and kept busy during those year helping people get over the deadly flu of 1918. He also helped farmers get their crops in when their sons were off to war and they couldn't get help. The church has an active wonlcns organization which participates in raising funds from bazaars, suppers, painting and leaning and most anything that needs doing, Some of the older members remember serving tea and suppers in the church shed, which used to stand north of the church. There were no conven- iences and the food had to be carried out to the shed from the rectory. Over the years various gifts have been received in the forms of furniture and accessories for the church, The first organ was procured for the church by the Young Peoples Association in 1930 but the group is now inset ive. In October 1976 a memorial fiord was established with the purpose of purchasing a new organ. The goal was realized December 24, 1977, when the new electronic $1.700 organ was installed. The members have put together 0 little booklet to cnnrmemoratc the occasion and it will be available at the tea on Saturday afternoon. On display will be photos of the past illustrating the church's history. The booklet covers changes to the church and rectory as well as rectors and gifts to the church, There will be two services Sunday. One at 11 a.m. and the other at 7 p.n1. I.unch will be served afterwards when chtur:h members and former members ill be able to reminisce.

This is a photo taken after the turn of the century after the main spire had been taken off for safety reasons.

Lately there have been more accidents concerning cyclists than I have ever noticed before. Across the front page of the Exeter paper the headline reads -- Two boys killed in area collision. The boys, aged 13 and 14, apparently buzed out of their parents lane into the path of an oncoming car, That was a fatal case and you may think that was one isolated incident. But you're wrong. On THE BLYTH STANDARD, JULY 26, 1978 — 3 Bikers should be careful Sunday w;lile we were driving up to Lucknow there was almost a repeat of the same incident on the road in front of our car, One youngster, about 13, came out of a laneway and in an effort to outrun the oncoming car he turned sharply and caused him- self to spill off his bike onto the centre of the highway. Fortun- ately there was enough distance between us for the shaken youth to jump up and grab his bike off the road and scoot off to the side, I don't know who was more shaken the boy or everyone in our car. Then in Lucknow a teenager spun out of hrs drive on:a small motorbike onto the highway right Crash injures Brussels girls Wingham OPP report that on Tuesday, July 18, Wendy M. Adams of R. R. /12, Bluevalc, was involved in a single car accident' on concession 6-7, west of side - road 15=16, Morris township when her vehicle entered the north ditch struck a post and rolled over. Miss Adapts and a passenger, Kathy M. Elliott of R. R. 114, Brussels received minor injuries as a result of the accident. During the week, there were three motor vehicle collisions which caused an estimated $6,750.00 in property damage and injuries to two persons. Thirty-two charges were laid under the Highway Traffic Act and twenty warnings were issued. Ten charges were laid under the Liquor Licence Act. One charge was laid under the Criminal Code.

SUPERIOR MEMORIALS 1 ,, ESTABLISHED OVER 50 YEARS ' Clinton • SMforth Area Representative MICHAEL FALCONER 153 High Street Clinton 482.9441 in front of us, barely missing the front bumper and continuing along the shoulder of the road doing wheelies, Now any biker, of any intelli- gence, knows that control in wheelies is very limited on a stretch of gravel road let alone a shoulder beside which cars are whizzing along. And to top it all off, the young fool was not wearing a helmet. Car drivers are repeatedly being told by both governments and parents to be aware of the bikers on the road and keep on the defense. Maybe the shoe should be on the other foot. It would appear that some bikers flaunt their lack of safety. Courtesy applies not only to drivers of four wheel vehicles but to two wheel drivers as well. It seems a shame to criticize everyone for the few who have faults but it is those few who are courting death or a bad accident, * * * * * * Weather is one of the greatest topic starters among people who want to start a conversation without offending anyone. Recently the drought conditions n Ontario have had everyone 1 uzzing. Some of the oldtimers 1 ve mentioned that the weather mditions are only now getting b Lek to what they were 30 years a,'o. The reason for the excess ing crops is that the spring s warmer and the land dryer so tl at the seeding gets underway nl ch sooner than it used to and 3th' refore the dry spell caught ma ly off guard with crops nee ing the rain more than ever, the say. Ti re was some talk circulating atx)u seeding the clouds for rains so the t parched crops could be saved. But with the release of a few chops Thursday night the loud 'ceding idea has been dropper for the moment. Seeding as been happening up north aroud the Thunder Bay arca, and of\the five clouds seeded, only one dropped any rain, The National Research Council • and the Environment Canada's Atmospheric, Environment Service jointly tried to find out if rain could be produced artificially by seeding rain clouds with silver iodide. The clouds are checked for ice crystal content before release of iodide. So far the reports have shown no changes affected by the rain - making procedures, The weather patterns have remained the same, but what will the long term effect be? Tampering with nature has been plan's greatest downfall. All too often more damage has been done than good or the good done is overshadowed by long term bad effects. I hope this will not be the case here. If anything were to happen to our natural weather patterns that would damage crops and cause severe conditions in the winter months then the price of rain may be too great to bear.

Registration Number 1319 Is it depressing? How do you vi', the future? Does it depress you? n a recent daily newspaper series of interviews hong Toronto young people, 18 to 30, the dominant ipression was one of absolute despair when they ought about the future. So many of the young people scorned their parents' ideas of saving for the future, and felt that the present was more important. The way the world was sliding there was no hope, they said. Although pessimism among young people has been natural occurrence for years, recent reports at worsening economic conditions caused by new technology, unemployment, inflation and the threat of another global world war do not help matters. How do you tell a young adult that he will enjoy life even more when he finishes school when the job situation is so poor that the possibilities of finding a job in their chosen field is shaky? Pollution, radiation, lack of renewable resources and apathy on the part of the rest of the world is admittedly not something to look forward to when contemplating a life span of 80 years or so But young people must be made to realize that the future of the world will not always look so grim. They are the hope of generations after them. They too have to try and do their best in helping get the world back in proper working order. Maybe not in its old ways of operating but new ideas and new talent can make the world a better place in which to live and work. Granted things don't look too rosy now but that is no reason to throw in the towel and live from day to day with no thought to the future. With encouragement and more concentration on the people who are anxious to do something about the world problems, we all stand a chance of surviving these blues and looking forward to tomorrow. Respect trees and wildlife! WATERING THE CHOPS—Ross Robinson had his hands full at the Auburn Pork Barbecue by keeping the flames down with a quick spray of water. Over 500 people enjoyed the meal at the Auburn Community Centre Wednesday evening. The proceeds are for Auburn's 125th birthday celebrations next year. Our predjudices By Keith Roulston Whenever a wave of immigration hits a country some of the less admirable qualities of mankind seem to surface. Canada, peopled as it has been by surge after surge of immigration from various corners of the world, has not had a gracious history as far as understanding goes. Whcn the Irish arrived in Canada, for instance, in the 1840's and 1850's, they were met with sins in parks that said "No dogs or Irish amwed" or with help tii'anted signs that stipulated "No Irish need apply" Yet within a decade or two when the Irish had settled into their new land, been accepted and become part of the new fabric of the land they were among those who resented the coaling of other Europc.in nationalities. A second major wave of imnligartion has struck Canada since the end of the Second World War with huge influxes of Italians, Germans, Dutch, Greeks, Hungarians and; even Americans. Each has been subject to harassment and intollcrance. Most today have settled in and are more or less accepted. A new wave is having troubles as witnessed by the cruel " Paki" jokes that are making the rounds, particularly in the larger centres. The more immigrants there seem to be, the harder the resentment seems to grow . 1 have always hated that kind of smallmind- edncss that leads to such discrimination but got a little better understanding of what leads to it a few weeks ago when 1 was down in the city for an evening. My destination was a theatre in a neighbourhood that had a particularly rich ethnic mix. Walk in one direction and you were likely to see stores advertising in Italian. In another were stores specializing in clothing for the stylish young black woman. It was like a little United Nations in a few blocks of Toronto. For a country boy used to Canadians born here from families a century in the country whose plain contact with new Canadians was with the Dutch who look so much like the oldtimers anyway, it was quite an unsettling experience, 1t was hard to believe this was my country. It was supper time and after searching for a place to eat, passing up a number of ethnic restaurants because I didn't feel up to the strain of experienlentation with foods I'd never tasted before when I was all alone, 1 picked what seemed to be a safe spot, a corner lunch counter. I mean hamburgers may not be exciting ethnic fare, but they're a nice comforting thought when all about you is strange. So I went in and sat down at the counter and ordered supper. Then I began to notice that while the food alight be typically North American, the language wasn't. You might ask for a hamburg and french fries, but when the order was delivered to the cook in the open kitchen, it didn't sound the least like "hamburg and french dries". It was all Greek to ine, literally. Now that's nothing new, of Course since about half the restaurants in Toronto are run by Greeks, as arc even many of those around here. The fun began when some Greek customers came in. The waiters and cooks called back and forth to the customers saying a few words in English, then switching to Greek then back to English and so on. The trouble is that when they switched to Greek there was almost always a laugh along the way. Whcn they were speaking English they were saying ordinary things like "nice day today." What was so sunny when they were speaking Greek. Were they pointing to ale and saying "Look at that dumb hick from the country who doesn't even know how to cat a hamburger without dribbling the ketchup on his beard?" Are they casting aspersions on Illy ancestry? Actually what they were probably doing was talking about the soccer game last night but who knows, There is a kind of paranoia that can envelope you when people are speaking another language and you don't know what they're saying, especially when you k laMs' they can understand you but you Can't understand them, You have to be awfully secure in yourself or you can start resenting the other person and for that matter his whole race. Most people aren't that secure and so we have the distrust, the animosity that leads to conflict. The trouble comes not so much from the tensions between the nationalities or races, but from the weaknesses within ourselves, So we have troubles with immigrants and we have troubles with our French Canadian brothers and we fail to lay the responsibilities where they belong, on our own weaknesses and petty fears. We lose the chance to enjoy the beautiful things that can conte from meeting people of a different background and exchanging our experiences, The only good thing about it is that given time, the majority of us are able to sort it all out and we do get along with the new arrivals, just in time to present a united front to the next group of immigrants. THE BLYTH STANDARD, JULY 26, 1978 — 5 Trinity Church is 100 A STUDY OF EARLY VICTORIAN ARCHITECTURE— This is the original manse built for the Trinity Anglican Church. It was only 33 years old when it was torn down and a new rectory was built in its place for $2,500.

Several residents have been enjoying the plays at the Huron County Playhouse, Grand Bend. DETAILS -For those who are familiar with the Trinity Anglican Church many will notice that the top spire is now missing from the present day structure. Among the photos on display this weekend is this one of the Church before 1900. When the church was first built 100 years ago a severe thunderstorm passed over Blyth and if you look closely you will see the buckles in the larger spire. The Trinity Church is celebrating its 100 birthday with a social tea on Saturday from 2 to 4 p.m. A BEVY OF BEAUTIES—Although not certain as to what is going on in the photo Mrs. Ted Quinn believed it to be a Sunday school pageant put on at the Trinity Anglican Church, This is just one of the many photos that will be on display at the Trinity Church for their Centennial celebrations this weekend.

Mrs, Olenc Stutz and Natasha of Waterloo spent a weekend recently at her parents home, Mr. and Mrs, Torrance Dundas, Audrey Riley, Lynda Riley and Dennis Wintemute visited at the home of Mrs. Orvilla McCutcheon on Wednesday and also visited Ethel man organizes IPM demonstrations By Dave Dineen Though chairmen of the other 22 International Plowing Match local committees have experienced Ontario Plowmen's Association (OPA) representa- tiVes and Committee chairmen from past years to help them, Don Martin is almost alone in plan- ning his committee's work, Mr, Martin, of the Ethel area, is chairman of the iPM demon- strations committee, and the annual plowing match, which is expected to attract about 250,000 to the Wingham area, has never had a demonstrations committee before, The committee has about 205 acres of land in the proximity of the tented city, for farm equip- ment companies and dealers to demonstrate how their machinery works. There will be about 90 acres of grain corn which may or may not be ready for combining during the match, which will be held Sept. 26 to 30, and there will be grain stubble to till, and there my be some corn silage to harvest. Huron County IPM committee members have met with the 1976 IPM committees from Bruce County and with the 1977 IPM Frontenac County committees, to get advice on planning this year's match, but when the counties met, Mr. Martin couldn't get much advice, "There just doesn't seem to be anyone to talk to at the meetings between the counties," he said. To date, Ed Starr, secretary - manager of the OPA, has been contacting farm implement companies to get them interested in the demonstrations at the match, and the local committee has been setting aside five to 10 acres of land for each. Mr. Martin said machinery companies have been less than eager to participate in the demon- strations. "I guess they are afraid it may turn into a competition," he said. The demonstrations he noted, are simply to give plowing match visitors a chance to see the various types of machinery in action. Even the OPA was a little wary about trying the demonstrations, Mr. Martin said because much of the revenue brought in by the five-day plowing match is the rental of space in the 87 -acre tented city. OPA officials didn't want the demonstrations to let exhibitors think they could he a part of the match free of charge. Because some machinery com- panies are still hesitant to be a part of the demonstrations, thought the demonstration lots are given to exhibitors free, the local committee still isn't sure what the companies will be displaying, or even which companies are participating. Some large companies like John 1.1'..ere, White, McKee Bros., George White and Same will be represented, Mr. Martin said. Because of the limited space, it is unlikely the demonstrations will be continuous, he said, and will probably be only at set times. The demonstrations will likely be held late in the morning or in early afternoon, Mr. Martin said, so some tractors and wagons which are used to take people between the tented city and.thcir cars, can be spared lo give rides to and from demonstrations, The demonstrations committee was formed after the Huron County Soil and Crop Improve- ment Association was approached to help out with the new feature of the plowing match, Mr. Martin said. He was vice-president of the association at the time and headed a committee to investi- gate how the group could help with the match. The soil and crop committee was then named one of the 23 iPM local committees. Members are Lawrence Taylor, of R. R. 111, Londesboro; Doug Cameron , R. R. //7, Lucknow; .ling Armstrong, R.R. /14, Wingham; and Mike Miller of Clinton, who acts as committee secretary.

But before you start to load the freezer, the food specialists al the Ontario Food Council. Ministry oI' Agriculture and Food, suggest you keep these guidelines in mind as you prepare and package foods for storage. • Freeze foods according to your needs. Estimate how much food your family will cat during the year (according to the number oI' ' tittles it is eaten during ti NCek ut• month) and freeze it in meal -size~ portions. Allow fur company lou. I:ollrny proper instructions for preparing fruits and vegetables for freezing. For best quality. use only moisture -vapor -proof wrapping materials. ('hill foods quickly and thoroughly before wrapping. Press out as much air as possible. Keep packages as thin and flat as possible. When using cartons and or glass jars, leave space to allow for expansion of food during freezing. Seal packages and containers securely with freezer tape to keep in moisture and keep out air. Label the food clearly with the name, date and other useful information, such as amount or number of servings. Freezer tape slakes a convenient label, and wax -china narking pencils or felt-tip pens are best for writing. Freeze only small quantities of food at a time to allow for quick freezing, which helps to preserve food quality. No more than 2 to 3 pounds of food per cubic lot of freezer spare should be placed _in the freezer, to he Boren, in a 21 -hour period. • Potatoes and carrots are best scrubbed with a brush to remove any dirt sticking to the skin, A leafy vegetable, such as spinach, is best rinsed two or three times in a large amount of water, using the fingers as a sieve. Cauliflower and broccoli are best cleaned by putting the heads, flowerets down, in a bowl of cold salted water for about half an hour. This will release any sand or bugs which may have lodged there. • Clean beets carefully, rubbing them gently with the fingers, under cold running water. Using abrush can damge the skin, causing the color pigment to ooze out into the cooking water, resulting in very dull -colored cooked beets. When the election comes remember, Only Canadians can vote A reminder that only Canadian citizens may vote in federal by-elections and general elections has been issued by Jean -Marc Hanel, Chief Electoral Officer of Canada. "The Canada Elections Act of 1970 provides that only persons having attained the age of 18 years and who arc Canadian citizens qualify as federal electors," said Mr. Hamel. "The Act also provides that British subjects who were not Canadian citizens, but who qualified as electors at the time of the 1968 general election, could continue to vote in federal elections for a period of five years following the coming into effect of the Canada Elections. Act on June 26, 1970. Accordingly," stated Mr, Hamel, "since June 26, 1975 only Canadian citizens have had the right to vote in federal elections." He also pointed out that British subjects who arc not Canadian citizens may be entitled to vote in certain provincial or municipal elections if they meet the requirements of the applicable election legislation. "As far as federal by-elections and general elections are concerned," said Mr. Harvel, "proof of Canadian citizenship is not required either at the time of enumeration or at the polls, but the cleigibility of a would-be voter can be challenged by the deputy returning officer, the poll clerk, one of the candidates or his agent, of by any elector present at the poll. If challenged the would-be voter will be asked to produce satisfactory evidence of citizenship or to swear or affirm that he is a Canadian citizen," Anyone refusing to swear eligibility when required to do so will not be given a ballot and will not be readmitted to the poll. Mr. Hamel cautioned would-be voters that a false oath cauldresult in prosection. Persons in doubt about thein' citizenship status should contact their local Court of Canadian Citizenship or the Department of the Secretary of State. These are listed in the telephone directory white pages under 'Government of Canada'. Courts of Canadian Citizenship arc located in 28 major centres across Canada. In many other areas, citizenship officers, specially appointed individuals and provincial or county courts provide citizenship services. Enquiries may also be directed by mail to the Registrar of Canadian Citizenship, Department of the Secretary of State, Ottawa, Ontario K 1 A 0M5. According to Ron Gould, Registrar of Canadian Citizenship, the granting of citizenship to qualified persons usually takes an average of three months from the date of application.

Mostly in Clover on in Lindsay, Roulston play to be published Mostly in Clover, the play adapted front the works of Harry J, Boyle which proved to be the first big hit at the Blyth Summer Festival will be produced this summer at the Kawartha Festival in Lindsay. The Lindsay production takes place from August 15 to 19. It's the first time a play originated in Blyth has been perforated by another theatre. Two Below coming to GB When an irresistablc force such as Nettie, meets a resistable guy such as Boris, the verbal fire- works fly in all directions, as in TWO BELOW, the brand new comedy being unveiled at the Country Playhouse here, It opens for one week only, Tuesday July 25 to Saturday July 29, playing evenings at 8:30, Wed, matinee 2:30. Well-known Canadian actors (Ms.) Terry Tweed and Heath Lamberts play the two protag- monists in this witty romp by George R. Robertson, film, radio and tv writer, a two-time ACCRA Award nominee, making his first effort for the stage. Trader Selkirk, seen as a scheming dandy of the 20s in last week's play, turns menacing tough cop of the 70s in this candid but comical view of the search for individual fulfillment. Guest Director Lynne Gormann helps create the moods and moves of this play's first production. The seventh season of the Country Playhouse, so far, has proven to be a record breaker in overall attendance and advance bookings, with the 2 -week season opener THE ODD COUPLE, and last week's PARLOUR, BED , ROOM & BATH. The latter in particular, drew turnaway crowds at every performance and neces- sitated :in additional matinee bring hastily scheduled to accommodate the tremendous demand for tickets.

Often it doesn't, Climate is no cure for emphysema, bronchitis or asthma. This is one of the things that physicians have found it necessary to point out to people for some years, Sufferers from lung disease have long had the notion that moving to a state like Arizona will solve their problems. But, too often, those that do find the same or other problems waiting for them, Every lung sufferer is different, What's good for one may be bad for another. The very hot and often very dry summers in Arizona, for example, may be just the thing for some patients, but just the wrong thing for many others. The Arizona Lung Association gives information to people who are smart enough to inquire about living conditions there before making plans to move. It points out that there are mountains as well as dese its in that state r WHAT TO KEEP ...WHAT TO SELL Don't Keep What You Do Not Need That WASHER Those FANS You Didn't Trade In Your Air Conditioner Replaced The BICYCLE The Boy Out Grew Those STORM WINDOWS You Replaced With New Ones The BASSINET You Won't Need Anymore Look Around!

Now, after the store sections of the building have been empty for more than four years, 87 Main Street South has become the new cffices of J. E. Longstaff, optometrist and the optician's office and lab of his son, David, The reason David Longstaff was attracted by the building was because it allowed the optometrist's and optician's office to be completely separate from one another, while still sharing the same building. Under the Health Disciplines Act it's considered a conflict of interest for r n ontometrist to have an optician operating in the same office. David Longstaff" didn't originally intend to follow a career quite su closely related to his father's profession of optometry. After graduating from Scaforth District High Shoot, David Longstaff was "gong ho on getting out'' of his hometown. He enrolled in the marketing management course at Ryerson College and fully intended to wtiork in Toronto after he graduated. But after two years of life in the city, and on the advice of his father, he decided small towns have more to offer, It's a decision he hasn't regretted since he finds Seaforth is friendlier than the city and "you know people as individuals and they know you which makes for a more trusting relationship," After deciding to return to Seaforth, David Longstaff began taking an optician's course at Ryerson in the evening. The optician is the person who is involved in completing and dispensing prescriptions from an optometrist or ophthamologist, In 1975, after finishing his business degree, David Longstaff moved back to Seaford) and finished his optician's course by correspondence, while appren- ticing in his father's office, He received his optician's licence in 1976, When David Longstaff decided to renovate the former Phillips building, he had to put in new floors, lower the ceilings, install heating and air conditioning It was a pleasure to have worked with David Longstaff Ltd. Optician in supplying and applying the paint and wallcovering in the firm's new quarters.

The two stores originally sharing the building were '`like a bowling alley" -each measuring 13 by 80 feet. Now these two large areas have been divided into a number of smaller rooms. In renovating the building care has been taken to preserve its original characteristics and style of the exterior. The brickwork on the front of the building used 90 year old reclaimed brick from a house in Londesboro. Smith Construction Limited of Egmondville were general contractors for the project. David Longstaff said he wanted to retain the look and atmosphere of the old building. Eventually he plans to sandblast the upper storey to match the new brickwork. The garage doors at the back of the store were replaced with solid walls and the land to the south of the building will be used to provide parking for customers at the optometrist's or optician's office. Mr, Longstaff said his future plans are to offer complete lab service for grinding and dispensing glasses.

Mr. Langstaff plans to have between 700 and 1,000 frames in stock. When a lab technician is added to the staff, Mr, Longstaff said it will take less than a week to fill prescriptions.

September 26 - 30, 1978 mumainimoommi LAST NIGHT THURS., JULY 27 THE BLYTH( STANDARD, JULY 26, 1978 -- 19 U of says Continuous corn can decrease soil productivity Can Ontario farmers grow' corn on the sank land year after year and still maintain acceptable sail structure? After considerable study and observation, the answer is an emphatic no accordine to R. W. Johnston o1' the Agriculture Chemistry Section, Ridgetown College of Agricultural Technology. Continuous corn has bccn grown for many years MAheUniled States midwest. Mr, ,lohnston'S research indicates that tivo major factors have been overlooked. Unlike Ontario, the American midwest prairie soil has high organic content and suffers less winter freezing. However, evidence indicates that continuous corn causes damaged soil structure even (here. Corn is vera hard on soil Although it is a grass crop returning considerable residues to the land, it does not build soil structure, a fact which still puzzles scientists. Good soil structure is as important to crop production as is fertilizer and rain water. When corn is grown on the same land for more than two , years, earth -granule size decreases, the amount of air in the soil is reduced, fertilizer efficiency is lowered, and water drainage is retarded, This leads to increased runoff, Tess water storage ad erosion and loss of organic matter and nutrients, In add111011, 1Ile soil becomes More susceptible to compaction during tillage. Most recorded research on the effects of continuous corn cropping refers to limited areas of the United Slates. Data collected from all over the world shows corn fields to be high when the crop is part of a rotation program, Without soil -improving legume crops, land suffers increasing `GrrA irerAriVAFiVIVAVArAnU!YiririGriri'Jr.ArAVA AVAA i J'iF.AVAI!irAViViU.......+'...
