The Huron Expositor, 1962-07-12, Page 7• • s HURON FEDERAT By FLORENCE LLLIOTT, Sec. . Amendment to Workmen's • Compensation Act: Farmers who employ hired help either full-time or • seasonally, should pay particular attention to re- cent amendments to the regula- tions under the Workmen's Compensation Act of Ontario. Sections 11-a to 20 of Regula- , • tion 571 of the Act have been altered in such a way as to make it necessary for an em- ployer of five or less workers to provide a First Aid box con- taining certain specific items, and to maintain it in a•readily accessible place. He is also obliged to see to it that this 'First Aid box 'is in the care of one of his employees who is conversant with first aid, and works in the vicinity of the box. The first aid kit shall contain a first aid manual, scissors, safe- ty pins, antiseptic and a num- 4 ber of stated types of bandages 4 WIND • TORNADO • CYCLONE Insurance R. F. ' McKERCHER ION NEWS and dressings, including a tri- angular bandage. Persons em- ploying more than five- persons are required to provide a much larger first aid kit, the contents of which are also spelled out in the regulation. As more and more farmers turn to hired help on either a seasonal basis, or a full-time basis, it is .imperative that they recognize these requirements that are spelled out under the Workmen's Compensation Act. However, . over and above the fact that such is required, it would seem good common sense that farmershave such First Aid kits available for the bene - $t of their j hired help, their families and themselves. First aid is no substitute for farm safety, but we must be realis- tic and -recognize that accidents do happen. Proper emergency care may save a limb, and even a life.

Changes in Demerit System Farm people as drivers of autos and trucks should ac- quaint themselves with the changes in Ontario's Driver De- merit system introduced recent- ly and which came into effect July 1, 1962. Nine new offens- es have been added to the list for which demerits may be as- sessed. The Minister of Trans- port, Hen. Mr. Rowntree, has stated that it is not the pur- pose of the -regulations to car- ry out wholesale withdrawal of driving privileges, but rather to make all motorists better driv- ers. Wheat Exports Hit Bottle- neck—Export demand for Cana- dian grain h a s apparently dropped in recent weeks and some concern is being express- ed at the rate of movement of grain out of the Lakehead. As at June 6, stocks of wheat were 55.6 million bushels, com- pared to 43.0 million a year ago, but lake shipments for the. week were down to 2.9 million for the same week last year. Lake shipments of all grains from the Lakehead for the week were 5.0 million bushels, and 12.4 million a year ago. NEWS OF NC IE . LSEl USSORNE ; AREA SCHOOLS COMPETE AT .,,ANNUAL.

They have announced that they will di- vulge the details of this mar- keting, plan to the press, radio and TV people and through them to the general public this week. Presumably, this will be followed by direct contact with all milk producers in the prov- ince .since we understand ev- ery milk shipper will be direct- ly involved , in this marketing plan, either through licence fees or levies. Not all will pay both, but every milk producer will contribute to the admini- stration of the plan. If Ontario's milk producers approve of this plan there will be one producer board to han- Be Warmly Contented With Texaco Stove Oil dle all milk marketed in this province. The various com- modity groups that have mar- keting boards or price ne- gotiating )powers now will gra- dually beabsorbed into the pne board, according to what Fe have been able to learn, except for the Ontario Cheese Produc- ers Marketing Board. The lat- ter is the only board currently handling the manufactured pro- duct, i.e. cheese, rather than the raw product, milk. So, while cheese milk shippers will come under the aver -all plan, the Cheese Producers Marketing Board will continue to receive its 9 -10th -a -cent levy per pound on all cheese sold so that it may carry on its own stabiliza- tion job. This board has been quite successful in buying cheese when there is a surplus on the domestic market and selling it abroad in order to maintain prices in 'Canada at a realistic level. It will carry on in much the' same mariner. This will also be one of the functions of any over-all board —to dispose of surpluses that are currently upsetting the do- mestic market—but its powers will probably be much broader. `y That is, if and when, the Plan�9 is approved by producers and powers are relegated to the pro- ducer board by the government under the Milk Industry Act. Generally speaking, the board will try to get the best possible price for producers through ne- gotiations , with distributors and processors and to set up a stabilization fund so that ship• pers of similar quality milk re- eeive more or less similar re- turns. Of course, it won't be possible to assure exactly the same price for all milk of one quality because of geographic and other reasons,' but the fund should eliminate many of the wide discrepancies. The board will also develop a program to improve milk quality, to devel- op and expand markets through promotion, advertising and re- seareh, and to bring the whole dairy industry closer together:' Funds to do this job will be raised in two ways: first, through licence fees to finance the administrative program, and second, through levies to build the stabilization fund. We un- derstand that licence fees to be paid by all milk shippers may range up to a maximum of 1% of the value of all milk mar- keted, while the levies may go as high as 3%. However, the plan allow for levies only on milk for the fluid trade and milk sold for manufacturing, i.e. concentrated milk products. It will not provide for levies on cheese milk shippers who will continue to contribute to their own marketing board as at present or on cream ship- pers.

Always leave, two or three! buds of the shoot when you cut off the bloom, even if this does not give you as long a stem as you would like. New growth will start from the buds you have left. Blooms that are loft on the rose bush should be removed. in a similar manner to prevent seed setting. This is particular- ly important in cutting early summer blooms. In the late summer and fall, the faded blooms only should be removed. If you have trouble getting the blooms to last indoors try the following ideas: Change water regularly. Cut a small piece off the end of the stem after changing the water and bruise the freshly cut ends Where the blooms have wilt- ed badly, try placing the stems in hot water for a while. r1a1 T#i�. =WIT taD$l'I'9O I1:, :ST,�A�(lR.. , z�lT.+ NIX Arnold STINNISSEN, Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada Telephone: 852 R 12 R.R. 5 - 'SEAFORTH Mr, A.
