Board Meeting
The regular meeting of the
Turnberry Township School Area
board was held Thursday eve-
ning, All members were pres-
ent.
The board joined the Ontario
Trustees and Ratepayers Associ-
ation and the Public School
Trustees Association. The
principal's request for permis-
sion to have a skating party for
the school was granted.
The caretaker was present
and stated that the new clean-
ing machine had arrived and al-
so gave a report on the rest of
the equipment in the school.
The following bills were
paid: Teachers' salaries, care-
taker, Receiver General, Craw-
ford Motors, telephone, Alex-
ander's Hardware, Imperial Oil,
Jack Hood, Vance's Drug Store.
The annual meeting of the
Huron County Junior Farmers
was held in the Belgrave Arena
and Foresters Hall, with over
120 members and interested
parties in attendance. This was
the largest attendance in many
years.
Broomball and skating in the
arena preceded the meeting.
Tom Cunningham, president
for 1965 was in the chair. Barry
Mulvey was appointed secretary
Corn, like wine, is only ex-
cellent at maturity, and On-
tario's farmers should resolve
now to improve the quality of
their corn.
"Early planting is essential!"
advises Dr. E. E. Gamble, Crop
Science Department, Ontario
Agricultural College, Guelph.
"The first of May should be a
target date to plant corn, Any
delay will increase moisture at
harvest. In addition, planting
after the middle of May can
seriously reduce corn yields."
Is there any danger from
spring frosts by planting so ear-
ly? "A spring frost may des-
troy the existing leaves," re-
plies Dr. Gamble, "but in
practically all cases, complete
recovery (including high yields)
is made. It's much more ser-
ious to suffer a frost after the
corn has flowered, since such a
frost will kill the plants. Many
for the evening.
Don Pullen presented the
most favorable treasurer's report
in a number of years. The
presidents of each club gave a
brief outline of their club's ac-
tivities during the year.
Miss Dianne Liddiard, home
economist, presented a past
provincial director's pin to
Maurice Love and Marilyn Mar-
shall presented the past presi-
dent's pin to Tom Cunningham.
Maurice Love gave a report
on the trips offered to Junior
Farmers in Ontario. Two Jun-
iors may go to Alberta, four to
Prince Edward Island, four to
Quebec, two to British Colum-
bia, and four in the Northern
and Southern Ontario exchange.
Two Junior Farmers from Hur-
on County are sent on the East-
ern Ontario bus trip, two to the
Junior Farmer Camp at Lake
Geneva, and one to the Effect-
ive Speaking Course in Toron-
to. Four Juniors from Ontario
are sent on the overseas trip.
The Junior Farmers Associa-
tion of Ontario is preparing a
new booklet on the planning of
effective meetings and also new
song books, Mr. Love stated
that it was an honor to represent
Huron County and thanked the
members for offering him the
opportunity of serving and work-
ing with Juniors in the county
and Ontario.
Don Pullen gave the report
from the Department of Agri-
culture. He stated that the
Slow Moving Vehicle signs were
selling well but he hoped more
would be sold before August.
Miss Liddiard urged the Jun-
ior Institute members to plan
the year's meetings now and
take advantage of the program
kits available from Toronto,
The meeting was adjourned
and the evening closed with
dancing.
In accordance with the policy
of the Ontario Milk Marketing
Board, there will be only one
or genization of milk producers
i.. each county. The County
Milk Committee will replace
all previous milk producer
groups.
The general meeting of Hur-
on County milk producers for
the purpose of electing the Hur-
on County Milk Committee will
be held Saturday, February 26
at 12.30 sharp in Seaforth Disv
trict High School. D. H. Miles
will be chairman.
It is expected that members
of the Ontario Milk Marketing
Board will be in attendance to
discuss Board policies and ob-
jectives.
Following are the recom-
mendations on procedures:
(1) the county committee to
include 15 members.
(2) Any milk producer, resi-
dent in Huron County, who has
received a milk cheque in the
past year, is eligible for nom-
ination.
(3) Nominees must be milk
producers as in No. 2.
(4) Nominations in writing
farmers found this out last fall."
Early hybrids are also help-
ing to overcome the maturity
problems, according to Dr.
Gamble. The right hybrid
should be grown in the right re-
gion; it should not require more
heat units than are available.
There is now a strong trend in
Ontario to use even earlier hy-
brids than used in the past.
"I cannot overemphasize the
value of mature corn," adds Dr.
Gamble. "In addition to high
quality, mature corn prevents
storage losses or drying time and

Traditional
Sources Cause
Farm Accidents
Although the majority of On-
tario farms now are highly
mechanized, the first claims
for compensation or medical aid
payments to farm employees
now covered by the Workmen's
Compensation Act show that the
traditional sources of injury still
exist.
Farm employees in Ontario
have been covered for the bene-
fits of the Act since the first of
this year. Voluntary subscrip-
tion is available to farm owners
and operators for themselves and
their wives.
One of the first claims for
medical aid, which was allow-
ed, came from an Oak Ridges
farm employee who suffered
painful rib injuries when he
was kicked by a cow.
A Clarksburg farm hand was
allowed medical aid for the re-
moval of grain dust from one
eye. A woman working on a
mushroom farm near Weston had
to leave her job for seven days
when a sliver penetrated a fin-
ger, which became infected.
Her compensation claim was al-
lowed.
A rare accident was reported
from a Thamesford area farm
where an employee suffered a
painful wrist injury when he was
struck by a turkey's wing while
assisting in the blood testing of
the fowl.
As the records show, farms
may be highly mechanized to-
day but a good percentage of
farm accidents are attributed to
causes as old as farming itself.
