Estimated total crop harvests for this year is. about 1,850,000 cwt. bags as compared to the 1975 harvest of 1,783,789 cwt. bags. The average yield was 1,275 poUnds per acre on 145,000 estimated acres. This yield compares to the five year average yield of 1,354 pounds per acre. Ontario's current selling price is $19.20 export and $20.20 domestic pet_cwt.' TheMichigan crop is in at, slightly more, than four million cwt. bags with an average yield of only 950 pounds per acre. Michigan's quality , is also reported as 'good, with• slightly more split beans than 'Ontario. Current producer price in Michigan is $15.00 and has ranged from $14.00'to $18.00 per cwt. Ontario producers have received a $6.00 payment representing a partial payment on the 1975 crop. This is necessary, the board explains, because of the large quantity of number four beans (over 215,000 cwt.) of which 108,000 cwtr have yet to be sold. In order to achieve, the best return on the balance, they say, it selection: Individual A.I. sire catalogues; dairy cattle special- istS, Ninistry of Agriculture and Food personnel, can provide help in sire selection. Breed Assoeia- tions have fieldineh who are quite familiar withavailable sires. Do not neglect farm magazines, particularly Hoard's Dairymen: However, it seems the big problem is not how to use but rather whether or not to use A.I. sires. The prOyeti Sires aie available through AI units. It's amazing just how many unproven bulls Occupy space in' many dairy barns. Reasons given far not using A.1. generally reveal such dairymen are having breeding: prObletiS; haven't really thought using A.IQ or this year - ate trying' to cut eats, These may seem very legitimate.reasons for the individual dairymen. How= ever, 'the simple fact is that Mott very successful dair,ynieti hiSe Ado „ • • • will be necessary to sell them when the opportunity arises whiCh might involve several months. Total demand for bean consumption in 1976-77 is forecast at 5,833.600 cwt. bags. Total supply in the United States and Ontario is 6;350,00 cwt. bags - and more than 500,009 bags of beans must find their way into other world markets in 1976-77 to balance supply and demand. This will be difficult,,the board - says, since record crops of other similar white beans from Argentina and Chile are attempting to capture these markets. Smiles Nurse, talking to patient on the telephone: "Yes, the doctor will consider a house call. What time can you be at his house?" A young .attorney working on his first case had been engaged by a farmer to prosecute a trucking company for losing a shipment of 24 of the farmer's pigs. He Wanted to impress the jury with the magnitude of the injury. "Twenty-four pigs, twenty-four! Think of that! Twice 'the number in the jury box!" with quite good sticeeSS, In' MOst cases the above reasons indicate the problem management not A.I. This year, some dairymen have quit using A.I. AS a way of cutting costs. Such a management decision is qtteStionable. The simple chore of telephoning the Al office to request a proven ball for use in the herd IS easy., It's the surest way of improving the genetic level iti the dairy herd. To replace A.I with an. unproven bull is . questionable management and could be disastrous. Good dairymen continually strive to improve the genetic level in their herds. Intelligent sire selection is essential for genetic improvement, The best sire selection involves using sires available_ Don't neglect. sound breeding.. triatiageitietiti I would neighbou for the.
