National Tripartite Stabilization Plan With the current unsettled market prices in the beef industry many producers that have not already joined the National Tripartite Stabilization for beef may be presently looking at the program. Under the Tripartite Stabilization Plan, costs are shared equally among producers and the federal and provincial govern- ments. Producers are eligible for a stabilization payment per head when the market price falls below the support price. There are three plans that are available namely, feeder option, slaughter option and cow/calf option. However, producers who did not join in the original Tripartite Program but who enroll now, will be subject to a late entry penalty for those options. An animal only qualifies for a support payment when it is sold and the support payment is that which applies to that class of animal on the date it is sold. Tripartite Stabilization may be con- sidered an alternative from market risks to help reduce income loss. Corn Mold Corn molds have been a problem for pork producers in Ontario for many ears. The pink mold that produces zearalenone and vomitoxin is caused by the •fungus Fusarium Graminearum. There are three laboratories that can test for mycotoxins for a fee, 1) Vet Lab Services, OMAF, Box 3612, Guelph NIH 6R8 (519-823-8800), Extension 4521 (Tox- icology Lab); 2) Paracel Labs Ltd., 8-17 FBruce County OMAF ARM REPORT Grenfell Cres., Nepean, Ont. K2G 0G3 (613-225-2447) ; 3) Canpro Labs, 88 Cham- pagne Dr., Downsview, Ont. M3J 3C6 (41&635-8692). The fungus Aspergillus Flavus produces aflotoxin and is a problem in the U.S. It shows up as a dark, greenish mold on ex- posed ear tips. This toxin attacks the liver and immune system of single stomach animals including humans. Fortunately, this disease is not known to occur in Ontario.

Lucknow Christian School. news Soccer Tournament On Tuesday, October 18 we had a soccer tournament. It was our school against Timothy Christian, Owen Sound. Luke scored two goals in one game. The first game score was 2 to 0 for us. The second game score was 1 to 0 for the mixed team. It was fun watching the games. I got to root for our team. Too bad that Timothy did not get anybody to be rooting for them. At the end of the games we got the trophy for half of the year and Timothy got it for the other half of the year.

Guiders Joan Chamney and Tracey McDonagh took 22 girls to the property of Al and Gladys Hamilton, on the 12th of Ashfield. The guides spent time pitching tents, building campfires, making gadgets (clotheslines, boot racks, washstands), crafts, going for trecherous hikes and pad- dle boating. The girls enjoyed doing all their cooking over an open fire and singing songs around it at night. Everyone came home tired and ready for a bath but they all agreed it had been a fun weektend. The Guides thank Al and Gladys once again. Lucknow Sentinel, Wednesday, October 26, 1988—Page 19 WANTED More people to join t Creative Kids team!
