The 48 Junior Farmers ineluding some from as far away as Rainy River, were based out of Centralia College through the counties of Perth, Huron, Oxford and Middlesex. Farm business advisor Herb Norry, of the Louqdon ministry of agriculture office; said the'young men have "either just started or are getting ready to farm," Each was chosen from their respective county organi- zations. They toured about 20 farms in the four counties enabling the Junior Farmers to see a variety of farming methods. The tour is headed up by OMAF in co-operation with the Ontario Junior Farmers. Representatives from the agricul- tural extension offices in each of the four counties -assisted in selecting the farms to be toured. Farms were selected on the basis of "offering lessons to be learned" for the Junior Farmers said Mr. Norry. This annual tour has been taking place for about 20 years, A registration fee of $100 is paid by the Junior Farmer or his club with the remainder of the expenses, including a bus for traveling, picked up by OMAF. Locally, Perth associate ag. rep. Art Lawson accompanied the -farmers during their tour of Perth. From Huron County, John Heard travelled with the farmers for then week acting as soils and crop speci list. OUR IN HURON On Wednesday, July 27, the group toured the farms of Ken Flanagan, Dublin: Whyte Brothers. Seaforth; Don Henry, Bluevale; and Ray Hogan. Ashfield Township; all in Huron County. The following day 'they visited the farms of David Branch, Staffa; Doh- Hawkens, Fullarton; Player Brothers, Gadshill; Ber- nard Murray, Embro; John Alderman, Lakeside and Bob Debrabendere, Rannoch. At the Player Brothers swine operation near Gadshill, the Junior Farmers heard the story of these two young brothers, John and Gord, and the progress of their operation since 1979. The pair stressed record keeping for all aspects of the farming operation including crops and the swine. 'Interesting and easy" record recommended John. Both young farmers admit they have a trade to fall back on,ord's is masonry and John's is butcherl ut both now work full-time on the farm. Each owns 50 acres of land and they rent 80 workable acres, for a total of 160 acres of corn. Their swine operation consists of 110 sows of which they finish about a third. DRY SPELL Commenting on the dry spell experienced Gord Player said the corn yield is expected to be down this year. OFF FARM "Last year we had about 110 dry, bushels per acre. This year we'll haye 65 if we're lucky," Gord said. The brothers acknowledge that both their wives work off the farm which has helped thim get ahead financially,, , - : Referring to his trade, Gord also noted that with his five years experience in masonry, he has been able to build some of the farm buildings himself. This, he said, has eliminated the cost of hiring a construction crew. The Junior Farmers didn't end their day after the tours. Each evening, back at Centralia, the group discussed what they had seen that day. 4-H machinery club tours layer operation The 4-H Agricultural Machinery Club met at the farm of Jim and Brenda McIntosh July 14. Ross Mc- Intosh read the minutes. The topic was on Modern Mechanics on a Livestock Farm. Jim McIntosh intro- duced Brenda and himself to all the club members and leaders. Mr. McIntosh ex- plained how they gradually went from mixed farming to a laying hen set up. Members went over to the chicken barns anti lookeu inside. Topics covered in- cluded automatic flex auger feeding and how operating on time clocks takes less power and is more reliable. The fan ventilation and water system were also explained. They feed nine tons of feed per week at this chicken operation. At the feed mill members were shown all of the switch- es, the set up and the elevator lags in the mill. This set up was designed by Jim himself. A 50 hp. motor runs the grinder and a 40 hp. motor runs the mixer. Chocolate or vanilla egg nog was served. Some even thought that the chocolate egg nog tasted like chocolate milk. Cake and egg nog was enjoyed by all, compliments of the host family. Larry Hoggart Press Reporter Advance corn payment planned for growers Legal Notices NOTICE TO CREDITORS In the Estate of JOSEPH FERGUS McCONNELL All persons having claims against the estate of Joseph Fergus McConnell, late of the Township of Tuckersmith County of Huron and former- ly of the Town of Seaforth, County of Huron, who died on the 2nd flay of May, 1983, are hereby notified to send in full particulars of their claims In the undersigned on or before the 17th day of August, 1983. after which date the assets will be distributed having regard only to claims then received. Dated at Seaforth, Ontario this 25th day of July, 1983. McCONNELL, STEWART, DEVEREAUX & SMITH Seaforth, Ontario Solicitors for the executors Advance program popular More Canadian farmers every year are taking advant- age of Agriculture Canada's Advance Payments For Crops Program. In the 1982-83 crop year, 41 producer groups participated in the program. About 20,000 farmers received financial assistance. The program offers produ- cers interest-free advance payments for their crops. This eliminates the need of selling the crops immediately following harvest when prices are at their lowest, allowing farmers to extend their mark- eting season. Since its crea- tion in 1977, advance pay- ments for farmers have total- led 5230 million. The federal government has paid interest charges on these advances totalling more than 518 mill- ion. One of the largest grain commodities in Ontario, the 1983 corn crop will be eligible for an advance payment. All that remains is the final approval of Eugene Whelan. federal minister of agriculture. The advance payment will enable pro- ducers to store corn up to nine months in hopes of receiving a higher price. Previously, many growers were forced to sell their crop as soon as it was harvested. The price received off the field and nine months later increased. sometimes as high as 520 per ton. The Ontario Corn Producers' Association was established in March. A corn grower must be a member of the association to qualify for the advance payment program. "We have very little to brag about because we have no funding." says Wally Gimble. Mr. Gimble is a Paisley area cash cropper and a director of the association. "The only funds we receive is a S25 membership fee. We are presently working on getting more members and the advance payment.' Information meetings have been held in Blyth, Bornholm and Exeter. The first two meetings saw poor attendance, attributed to the wheat harvest on at the same time. Payment will be advanced at 51.524 a bushel, approximately half what the corn crop is worth. The maximum rate of cox erage Is 515,000 per farmer, 530,000 per partner• ship or 545,000 where three or more members or shareholders of a partnership are actively involved in the farming operating. In simple terms, to be eligible for a 515.000 advance payment, a farmer must have 530.000 worth of corn in storage "I don't believe any minimum payments have been set. A farmer can apply for any amount up to his limit." said Mr. Gimble. "I would hope all are eligible or this is an organization 1 wouldn't want to belong to. It wouldn't he a good way to do business." To guard against default and fraud, and since the association has no funds to cover such practices, application must be accom- panied by a certified cheque equivalent to 10 per cent of the amount of the advance requested, plus 5100 per request for corn stored in a licensed storage area or 5130 per request for corn which is stored on-farm. The extra S30 for on-farm storage will pay for on-farm inspections. The 10 per cent portion will he deposited in trust in a financial institution and will be returned to the producer when the advance has been repaid. The advance is given to the farmer interest free. It is highly unlikely a grower would receive interest for his 10 per rrnt one. inn The 'application deadline has been set for Dec. 15. Payments should be forthcoming within two to three weeks of approval. "Hopefully, in 1984. this process (10 per Celt) will not have to be repeated. We hope to have a check -off system as established in other commodities. "1f we're going to get t rolling. we will have to have the support o the producers. So far we have 1.3110 memb rs, but there are 26.000 corn growers in Ontario." More details of the advance payment can be obtained from any director member or area OMAF offices. Membership forms are at G,MMAF offices.-_�
