EGG BOARD
LAUNCH TRANSIT ADS
Advertisements which went up
in Ontario subways and buses
April 28 are showing hungry com-
muters how to "Crack and Egg for
Dinner Tonight."
The transit ads are the latest
campaign in the Ontario Egg Pro-
ducers' Marketing Board's
strategy of promoting eggs for use
at mealtimes other than breakfast.
Three different ads suggest easy -
but -exciting dinner dishes: a
western omelette, an egg taco, and
the egg burger.
Board Advertising and Promo-
tion Manager Theresa Miller said
the campaign was designed to
catch people on their way home
from work, "when they're
wondering what to make for din-
ner. And we're giving them some
great ideas."
The ads are part of the Board's
"Liberate Your Eggs" campaign,
which includes re -vamped televi-
sion commercials now running in
most Ontario markets.
The transit advertisements will
also run in most cities in the pro-
vince, for 26 weeks — April to Oc-
tober. D

private research efforts and diver-
sifying commodity markets, in-
terest and acreage is growing for
new Ontario winter crops, in-
cluding winter barley, winter
triticale, and winter rapeseed.
The developing interest in these
new winter crops should come as
no surprise, since they offer many
advantages to the commercial
farmer. For example, because
winter crops are planted after
spring cereals are harvested and
before most soybeans and grain
corn are mature, they help to
spread the seasonal workload.
Winter crop harvest is also timely,
as it occurs in mid -summer be-
tween the planting and harvest of
spring crops.
Excellent, profitable yields have
also generated new interest in
winter crops. For basically the
same input costs, winter varieties
