Wilful Damage: In McKillop Township between May 22-30, 1989, a residence at Lot 1, Conc. 7, was entered and $1,500 in malicious damage was done, when the culprit kicked in a north door, entered and once inside, tore the cupboards off the wall, knocked holes in the kitchen walls, pulled the stove fan down and pulled the doors off their hinges. The culprit then rip- ped the hand rail going upstairs off and threw it through an upstairs window, before going upstairs, the perpetrator pun- ched holes in the livino room walls. Break, enter and theft, Mt. Carmel: On April 2, 1989, between 1 a.m. and 8 a.m. in the morning, thieves broke into the Coun- try Corners Rentals and stole cash and tools worth $4,000. The thief(thieves) tore open an exterior west wall and smashed their way into the building where six ce- ment cut-off saws, yellow and black in col- or all were gas operated. Three of which were 14" blades and three had 12" blades were stolen, along with one blue Hitachi CRIME STOPPERS 1-800265-1777 air nailer. Trail of Stolen Vehicles On January 2, 1990, a 1984 green colored Pontiac, licence OCT -849 was stolen from the Town of Clinton. It was driven to the llth Concession of Goderich Township, where it was left with the engine running, at the end of the driveway to a residence where a 1980 Ford F-10 pickup, red col- ored, licence MA8-588 was stolen. The thieves then drove the stolen truck to the Village of Bayfield where it was recovered with the engine running on Main Street. It is believed that the thieves then stole a 1984 Chevrolet station wagon, brown, licence 214 -ALC, which was driven to the area of the Paul Bunyan Camp, south of Bayfield where it went into the ditch. The thieves then left the area in s 1981 Toyota four-wheel drive truck, blue and white, bearing licence DC7 -524. The Toyota truck has yet to be recovered!

REMEMBER CRIME DOESN'T PAY - CRIME STOPPERS DOES. Soil conservatio and agriculture comp There have been suggestions recently that our current soil conservation pro- grams are not environmentally sound, or that conservation tillage and sustainable agriculture are mutually exclusive. In fact, soil conservation should be an integral part of any sound, sustainable agricultural system. In the long term, there will be no agriculture, sustainable or otherwise, if we don't conserve our soil. Our crop produc- tion depends on a few inches of topsoil which nature has produced in the 10, years since the last glaciers retreated. If we squander this, it won't be replaced in our lifetime, or in the lifetimes of our children. In the short term, conservation tillage and conservation farming are closest to the principles of sustainable agriculture, allow- ing efficient production of food and fibre with the least environmental degradation HAPPY. 19th BARB GLANVILLE The guiding principle of conservation far- ming is to keep the topsoil in place. This helps maintain the productivity of the soil. It also prevents the soil itself from caus- ing problerns with sedimentation of turbidi- ty. Nutrients and pesticides which are at- tached to the soil are also going to stay where they belong, rather than polluting our streams or groundwater. Critics of conservation tillage predicted that massive infestations of weeds, insects and diseases would occur, and that these would only be controlled by huge amounts of chemical pesticides. This has not hap- pened. The spectrum of problems has changed, as have the methods required to control it, but the overall use of pesticides have been reduced or remained the same. Pesticides are being applied, at lower rates and directly onto the affected plants in- stead of onto the soil, so there is less chance of offsite impacts. APPY 40th BETTY GLANVILLE From Mom, Dad, Robert, Paul & Jackie Sorry 1 Forgot, Bonnie Finally Legal!!! HAPPY 19th BIRTHDAY "W eats (Jason Whetly) FEB. "Sloany (ROB SLOAN) FEB. 27 From Brian and the Staff at the Commercial! tabflity discussed Fertilizer placement has received con- siderable attention in conservation tillage systems. Banding, and split applications of fertilizer, have greatly increased the effi- ciency of fertilizer use and reduced the potential for environmental damage. One of the keys in making conservation systems work has been crop rotations. These have a direct benefit in reducing the amount of soil loss, and they also reduce the amounts of fertilizer and pesticides which must be applied to the crop. The benefits of conservation farming ex- tend beyond the realm of crop production, and affect the efficiency of the whole farm. Reducing tillage trips across the field saves diesel fuel, as well as wear and tear on the machinery. The operators time is freed up for other activities. A smaller line of machinery is required, so capital can be invested in areas which will generate greater return. All of this helps to make the farm a more profitable and more plea- sant place to be. This does not mean that we have all the answers. Research is still needed into areas such as manure management, fine- tuning of nitrogen fertilizer rates, and im- proving applicator safety. None of these problems, though, are insurmountable. We are all guilty of occasionally forget- ting the basic rule of ecology: all parts of a system are inter -related. We cannot treat, anything as if it is isolation, or give it precedence over the other parts of the system, It is easy to say that we should eliminate all chemicals, but we also have to look at what effect that will have on soil loss, fuel use, crop productivity, etcetera. We could even argue that a reduction in crop production due to the loss of pesticides and fertilizers would contribute to the greenhouse effect, by reducing the consumption of carbon dioxide. Similarly, we cannot work solely to prevent soil ero- sion without considering the rest Of the far- ming system.
