To get enough ears, farmers will either have to put In more plants to the acre or get more ears per plant. Other Canadian firms in ad- dition to the Ailsa Craig company working on such experiments are in Manitoba and Ottawa. The Stewart firm is also seek- ing a corn plant that can be grown over a wider range of soil and climate conditions, so the Ontario corn belt can be extended. The experiments •on corn con- ducted by former SHDHS teacher Andy Dixon and the Ailsa Craig firm of Alex M. Stewart and Son Ltd. have been heralded by Dr. W. S. Young, extensionagronom- ist with the University of Guelph. Dr. Young was speaking last week at the Oxford Soil and Crop Improvement Association's corn day and said the area firm is one of the few Canadian companies working toward a smaller corn stalk that could change the meth- od of corn growing in the 1970s. They are working on develop- ment of shorter corn plants which could expend less energy in grow- ing long, useless stalks and leaves and devote their strength to producing ears. He said that while the present corn strains produce plants up to eight and 10 feet tall, future plants probably will be as short as six, five or even three feet. Work is also being done to find strains that will grow three or other change that will come about in the 1970s is the elimination of tillage-- working the land by plowing, discing and harrowing. The farm on which the Oxford County corn day was held ex- perimented in this regard this year and reported a yield of 133 bushels per acre, compared with a high of 117 bushels to the acre in three plots tilled in the con- ventional manner. Dr. Young advised that the swing away from tillage could create problems with insects which would have to be solved. Dr, Young also predicted an- four ears per plant. Breeders also are seeking strains which can be planted more closely together, so more corn can be grown in a given area, he said, The search for strains that will produce several ears per stalk or that can be planted closer together is made neces- Farm outlook —Continued from front page vested are experiencing difficul- ties as they can't get onto the land to plow. Carf Cann explained that if the harvest is delayed too long, some farmers won't get their plowing done until spring and this is more costly than fall plowing. The reason for that is that heavy soils in the area don't dry out very quickly in the spring, and if they have to be plowed after that, it delays planting. Spring plowing also results in. a poorer seed bed. Students from SHDHS recently enjoyed a tour through the Chatham and Leamington area to see various canning operations. John Godbolt, David Frayne and Bev Bonthron are shown here at the Chatham plant of the C & D Sugar Company. Ladies pick new slate for Thames Road group Special Purchase!

The first stop was Ridgetown where the class was taken on a tour of the facilities of the West- ern Ontario Agricultural School. The guide for the tour was the Dean of Students at the school, Harold Willson, who answered the group's many questions. Friday afternoon, upon arriv- ing in Leamington, the H. J. Heinz plant was the next stop on the agenda. This plant covers over 145 acres and 1,000,000 square feet of floor space. Proceeding through the plant We saw such things as ketchup, tomato juice, baby foods, and vinegar in their various stages of production, The tour here finished with a film of the tom- ato harvest around Leamington. For anyone wanting to see a canning operation of this type it would be a most enjoyable experience. The whole class thoroughly enjoyed this tour. The Yoder-Atkin greenhouses on the outskirts of Leamington was the next visit. Here their main job is production. Flower cuttings are imported from Cali- fornia and distributed through- out Canada by this firm. The majority had never seen this type of greenhouse and were really amazed at what it en- tails. Following supper Friday even- ing, the class was on their own after checking in at the Rymal Motel in Leamington where the night was spent. Saturday morning everyone was ready to leave for Chatham by 9:00 AM. At Chatham the Grade 12's were taken on a tour of the C & D Sugar Factory which produces the sugar which you use in your home. No one in the group had ever seen any- thing like this before. This was the last stop of the tour.
