Use rubber gloves for milking cows Dairymen who have tried it state that if you wear rubber gloves for three weeks to milk your cows, you probably won't want to go back to milking with bare hands. Dr. H. J. Neely, veterinary services branch, Ontario De- partment of Agriculture and Food, warns that using disin- fectants at the correct strength may crack your hands and cause a lot of discomfort. This dis- courages farmers from using dis- infectants to their best advan- tage. A cow's teats aren't damaged by these chemicals because she only gets sanitized once per milking. If there are 30 cows to milk, the dairy- man's hands are drenched with sanitizer at least 30 times. Wearing rubber gloves is not only more comfortable; gloves are less apt to spread mastitis, No matter how much disinfect- ant is used, skin cracks are dis- ease carriers!

First" successful WROXETER-People from the village who went on the bus tour, "See Howick Township First" last Wednesday report a very interesting and education- al trip. This tour was sponsor- ed by the Howick Centennial Committee with Elmer Farrish, Warren Zurbrigg and Norman Harding acting as tour guides. Buses left the Howick Cent- ral School at 1 p. m. and re- turned at 5.15, having covered some, or all, of every conces- sion in Howick. The name of the owner of each farm was giv- en as the buses passed. Farms under the Centennial Improve- ment Plan, the Century Farms, beautiful flower gardens, new homes, the new municipal building in Gorrie, the old school houses and cemeteries and the reforestation and con- servation areas were also noted. Highlight of the afternoon was a conducted tour of the Girl Guide Camp "Wyoka" at R. R. 1 Clifford. The group was taken through the lodge, to the six completed campsites and to the lake. All agreed this is a very beautiful spot and the girl campers were making good use of the excellent facilities pro- vided fox them. The trip made many realize that they are indeed fortunate to live in such a fine township. Dates for fall'fairs Ontario agricultural socie- ties have set dates for the year's round of fall fairs.

Howe objects to passenger service discontinuation Marvin Howe, M.P. for Wellington-Huron is concerned with the application by the Canadian National Railways to discontinue passenger service between certain points in our area. Mr. Howe has forwarded the following letter to the Min- ister of Transport and to the Board of Transport Commission- ers for Canada; Ottawa, Ont. , Aug. 17, 1967. Dear Sire I would like to take this op- portunity to object very strenu- ously to any action being taken by the Board of Transport Com- missioners on the application by the Canadian National Rail- ways to discontinue passenger service between Guelph Ad Pal- merston, Palmerston and Owen Sound, Harriston and South- ampton, Stratford and Kincar- dine, Palmerston and Listowel and Stratford and Goderich. There are many valid rea- sons for this objection, but the most significant one is the fact that with the passing of Bill C 231, an Act to define and im- plement a new transportation policy for Canada, last year, some very definite new defini- tions were laid out dealing with situations of this kind. Therefore, in view of the fact that the new ComtniSsion has not been set up and the Act has not been proclaimed, rid action should be taken on this application which will have such drastic effect on the fu- ture growth and development of such a large part of the Western and Worth Western areas of Southern Ontario. Thanking you, I remain, Yours truly, Marvin Howe, M.P., Wellington" Huron, Crop report D, Q, Extension Assistant The harvesting of spring grains in Huron County has start, ed in several areas, Yields in these areas seem to he average or slightly above average but where lodging appeared, the grain didn't fill and thusyields are down somewhat there, Due to bad weather early in the sea- son, some fields of spring grains were planted much later than others. Therefore some will, not be mature for two weeks or so. The acreage of white beans is down slightly in the county due to the wet spring. •The crop is beginning to turn in color and is maturing quite favorably. The corn crop has progressed rapidly after a slow start due to cold, wet weather but requires more hot, sunny days to bring it along in maturity. Yields here look promising also. Some second cut hay has been taken in and is of very good quality. 11"4111PPP' ihrte„, Credit Unions are made up of friends and neigh- bors right here in Wing- ham.
