DRAINAGE DEMONSTRATION AT TEVIOTDALE
Two thousand farmers, tile drainage contractors, conservationists,
and heavy equipment buffs congregated at Ross Enterprises, in
Maryborough Township, near Teviotdale, on July 18 to see the
latest in farm drainage technology. The speakers and demonstra-
tions stressed "a total systems approach," including conservation
drainage, and soil and crop management. "Demo -Day" was spon-
sored by the Ontario Farm Drainage Association and was endorsed
by the Ontario Soil and Crop Improvement Association.
Bob Blackwell, Ripley, tells Ken Mackenzie, of Goderich, his opi-
nion of this interlocking cement block spillway. This same material
is used to construct safe erosion -proof, low level, stream and ditch
crossings. A fibrous mat has been laid down in the background to
hold the soil in place while grass seed has time to sprout and
become established.
