The ones that are not, that have "off days," or weeks waste a herd's time and income. Artificial insemination units with modern la- boratory equipment can detect and lay aside these bulls, eliminating a major cause of delayed 'calf crops. Ontario's top cattle breeders today rely on the ser- vices of the A.I. co-ops, for regular crops of quality calves. if your hogs are full fed - FOLLOW THE SHUR-GAIN PROVEN PROGRAM 111111111111111.11111k4111111111111111111111111 16% hog grower & 14% hog finisher Research is a must to produce better hogs.

Food is relatively cheap in comparison to wages. Farm prices in 1951 were about the same as they arc today, but farm cost, have gone up. A subsidy to the farmer makes food cheaper to the consumer.

Previously, this record book was only geared to livestock producers. While the familiar Publication 540, Livestock and General Farming, is still avail- able, Publication 284, Horti- cultural and Cash Crops, has been developed. Because each of these clear- ly illustrates how the farmer's business is developing, such a record also makes credit easier to obtain and income tax easier to assess. Both publications provide for Canada Pension Plan payments and the new Un- employment Insurance that starts in April -- while the Horticultural and Cash Crops edition also provides a much needed labor section for short time and full-time employ- ment data. Perhaps the most unique fea- ture, however, is that Publica- tion 540 and 284 have been de- signed for computer analysis. That is, farmers keeping their business records in these books can have them analyzed and compared with low and high in- come farm enterprises, free of charge, at the year's end by sending their books to the On- tario Agricultural College. The three publications are available at the agricultural representative's office now. WHITECHURCH Miss Darlene Coultes spent the week-end with her grand- parents, Mr. and Mrs. Earl On.
