Cudmore, R.R. 1; Hensall, was elected president of the South Huron Gideons Monday. Members of the Gideon Associa- tion of Canada representing the South Huron District, met at the home of T. Harry Hoffman Dash- wood, for the annual election. Meeting at the same time were Members of the. Ladies' Auxiliary. The South Huron Camp was or- ganized in December, 1955, being' the 108th Camp to be so formed in the Dominion of Canada. At present 138 Camps from coast to coast with a membership of 1861 undertake the task of distributing copies of Bibles and New Testa- ments in public places. The min- istry of the Gideons is world-wide and operates in some 60 countries of the world. The association dates back to 1898 when two Christian travelling men, meeting quite by chance, in a hotel room in Bosco - .bel, Wis., one night, became the nucleus of an organization at that timerof comthercial travellers but wha members now come from SDHS Teacher Goes To West Indies Specialist in agriculture at SDHS for the past six years, Richard Whitely has resigned from the staff to accept a position in the West Indies. Mr. Whitely is one of nine Cana- dians who ate going to the West Indies as a result of arrangements made by the eeononlic and techni- cal assistance branch of the De- partment of Trade and Commerce acting within the Colombo Plan.. He will be absent at least a year, Mr. and. Mrs, Whitely and their family expect to leave for the West .Indies in inidAAargvst, all walks of life. The first undertaking of impor- tance was the placing of Bibles in the guest rooms of a hotel in Iron Mountain, Montana. As hotels were covered throughout the United States and Canada, the Gideons came to be known by this work. In 1911 the Canadian Association was formed. Today, perhaps, it is•best known for its distribution of Testa- ments to school children of Grade V. Last year 200,000 were present- ed in this way; 3,000,000 copies of the Scripture have been distribut- ed free in Canada to date, and ov- er 43,000,000 in the world. The ministry has been enlarged to include motels, hospitals, doc- tors' and dentists' waiting rooms, nurses, armed forces, airliners, ships . and universities. The pro- gram is financed in several ways, by member's contributions, church services, memorial Bible plan (a plan to dedicate Bibles in memory of a departed loved one), and by general contributions and bequests. Plans are being made to hold the annual fall zone rally this year in douth Huron. Zone 4 comprises St. Thomas, London, Woodstock, Strat- ford, South Huron and surrounding areas.

Huron Farm News (By D. H. MILES) Only the odd field has been seed- ed during the past three weeks. However; previously sown grain has about 90 per cent germination. 'Some 'of the low lying areas have been flooded out. Very little corn has beensown to date. Some cash crops Tiave been planted during the short periods of bright, sunny weather on well -drained -land. Pasture and hay crops are grow- ing very well. Orchard grass has started to head. Most of the cattle are now out, both day and night. , In regard to late planting of crops and continued wet weather, the following suggestions have been released to our office from W. S. Young, Field Husbandry Depart- ment, Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph: Continued wet weather may ruin many farmers' cropping plans this year. In general, fall -sown crops show some promise because of the moisture available and fairly good recovery from winter damage. Oat and barley crops, which commonly supply the concentrates needed by Ontario livestock, may be a problem. Varieties such as Garry eats and York barley should be worth seeding up to June 10, but we must recognize that late seeding is usually accompanied by some loss of yield and quality of grain. Even so, oats and barley should still supply more feed than most substitutes. Because of the excess spring growth of weeds, such as quack or twitch on land plowed last fall, many farmers may substitute sum- mer faIIow for the spring grain crop. This would prepare that land for seeding a winter wheat crop in the fall. To adjust for this, the sod which would normally be plow- ed for wheat could be kept to pro- vide forages for another" year. Another scheme would be to use part of this fall -plowed land for more corn acreage. Chemical con- trol of grassy weeds would then be feasible. Through the years, corn has pro- duced more grain per acre than either oats or barley at O.A.C. 'Corn can be planted for fodder or grain up until the end of the first week of June. Make sure that you use a hybrid early enough to ma- ture in your area. The Ontario De- partment of Agriculture publica- tion, 1960 Field Crop'Recommenda- tions for Ontario, lists the good hybrids for your area. Cultural practices and recom- mended varieties for growing soy- beans may be found in Ontario Department of Agriculture publica- tion, Soybeans As a Cash Crop in Ontario. Your copy is at the Coun- ty Agricultural Representative's office. Soybeans provide a good Concentrate for livestock feed or a cash crop. Buckwheat seeded at four pecks per are before the end . of June should be a reasonably good grain crop. Millets also produce a grain crop when allowed to ripen, even though they are more commonly used for emergency hay. Seeded at 20 pounds per acre, the common Hungarian millet has givenan av- erage yield of about 40 bushels per acre over a 30 -year period at 0. A. C. Siberian or Empire millet, Japanese barnyard millet and Pro - so millet have averaged over 30 bushels per acre. Mi11et grain, when. ground, makes a valuable addition • to other concentrates. Both millets and buckwheat are roughly equivalent to oath in feed" value. cold and wet weather i ade it iiep- essary to hold the inspection m Seaforth Arena, The inspecting party' included; Major I.
