However, Dr. Stpne says some tend to lack resiliency and can cause hock 'damage, if the cows lie -down with- their hocks ex- tending over the sharp edge of the matting. At the Elora Dairy Research Station this problem has been combatted by attaching a low curb at the back of the stall, that retains more bedding (and thus padding) for this area. The mats add insulation pro- perties to bedding, keep the dust down, and can probably add sub- ___stantially to overall herd health. Further iniiiiirritibillifilbelests- --- will be available when more dat is completed. Dr. J. B. Stone, Animal' Science Department, University of Guelph, says rubber mats can save farmers the cost of 2 or 3 poundr"Of straw per cow daily and moreover are far better adapted to modern liquid manure disposal systems that cannot accom- modate too much loose bedding. Tests recently made at Cornell University and Pennsylvania State University. show that while 5 to '7 pounds of straw per cow is required each da4 in a con- ventional stall barn, only 2 to 5 pounds is requiredper day when stall barns contain rubber mats. Use Expositor Want - Ack Phone 527-0240 Notes From Queleiis Park Health Minister Bert Law- rence said, this week in the Legislature that in the first six months of the Provincial Parcost prescription programme, the average cost of prescriptions at participating pharmacies has dropped about 8%. Apparently; about 70% of the Province's pharmacies are using k April. He described as absurd recent claims by manufacturers that prohibition of studs would cause an 11% increase in traffic accidents. • On the other hand, the Minis- ter said studs may have con- tributed to accidents by reduc- ing a car's manoeuvrability. The Natural and Physical Resources Committee members of the Legislature told the Prov- ince's Milk Commission that Ontario's cheese industry faces an emergency because of short- ages of milk. The Commission was told that the situation is getting worse, particularly in Eastern Ontario, Dr. Ken McEwa'n, Chairman of the Milk Commission said the problem is in getting adequate, supplies of milk to cheese pro- ants. Highways Minister Charles MacNaughton indicated in Legislature that no new infor- mation had come to the attention of the Government which would change its mind with respect to the ban on studded tires, due to coma into effect after the 30th Try Rubber Mats For Cows ,at Elora the programme. • The tire stud industry, made a last minute plea to the Govern- merit to reconsider its ban cm studded tires. The industry said Ontario's ban on studded snow tires may cause an 11% increase in motor vehicle accid- rainerommixowormsamsmi INSURANCE Auto, Fire, Life Donald 'G. Eaton insurance Agency Limit's!

Under the quot asystem, the Commission cannot increase the amount of industrial milk to the cheese industry., "oa It was pointed out that-unless" the' situation is corrected, Ont- ario is in danger of losing the U. K.. export cheese market. Health Minister Bert Law- rence said in the Legislature that the Government has agreed to continue paying 90% of the Ontario Medical Association's fee schedule, when it is increased by an average of 4.5% on the 1st May. In return, the Government is pushing the doctors to accept 90% as full payment, thus avoid- ing extra billing to'patients. ,• Rubber mats for livestock stalls are being tested at the Elora Dairy ResearchfStation in place of such conventional loose beddings as straw. At the Elora Station, 128 'tie stalls are using rubber mats, with many diffeiant mat-types being tested simultaneously. One type under test is 100% tubber, about 1 inch thick and impervious to 'cloven-hoof stresses. Another is made from a. plastic encased in foam rubber, while a third is manufactured from conventional treading and is purportedly softer and spongier than its com- petitors. Indoor-outdoor car- peting is a possibility; it has not -yet- been tried -and may hav_e_ wear problems. Dr. Stone says the initial costs of the mats are high - roughly $40 to $50 for a 4 by 6 foot mat - but fanners can expect 'these costs to • be repaid over a few years in saved loose bedding materials.
