The Wingham Advance-Times, 1974-02-28, Page 16• 1 A' rage 2 -Crossroads February 28, 1974 DICK ESKEROD IN THIS CORNER So long, Porky!! Md to the whooping crane, the Atlantic sahnon, and other spe- cieS facing ,the reality of possible extinction one other familiar creature: porky. pig. ,Recent revelations from the University of Guelph that what is called ":the new. pork" or "today's pork" has fewer calo- ries and less fat than beef or lamb, coupled withthe accept- ance of pork on the diet of weight control groups, has inspired the Ontario Porkin.stitute to develop a new information• approach. Consider: • ,"Let tiklaSt's pork help* shape ' your tomorrows. Calorie -count- • ers do." • • You wouldn't have seen that one ten years ago. The fat pig is vanishing. That's the word. And the evi- dence is mounting! FlOrk has the benefit of more protein than its competitors as well. So, in 1974, information and ad- vertising prograins win centre around that weight -watching theme. Figures from the univer- sities, say the pork people, as well as from the Canada Depart- ment of Health and Welfare will _ support the program. No doubt some additional in- teresting figures in support of the program will be provided by the professional modelling agencies. CHESS TIME 4Statilinct:' counts as.

This year's prestigious Hoogoven tournament, in oducting protein with forages BY JIM ZION& 'protein and at 20 cents a ,pound Third of a five.Part Safes Protein - $400 a ton! .Today's Prices Would have staggered the, imagination of fanners even ten years- ago. With soaring ,prices comes a 'renewed interest in • low- cost, homegrown protein. It is possible in many parts of . Ontario to grow a ton of protein per acre - or, five tons of alfalfa -dry matter ifith 20 per cent pro- tein content. Dr, Elwood Hatley of the University •of;Guelph •out- lines three factors in • achieving „ this goal: (1), the establishment of a thick. high, Well -fertilized of alfalfa trefoil,) stand or 2 proper management of that stand to ensure longevity, and i3) a iarvest and storage system that ves and preserves the, leaves • . a value of $24 to$54 per acre! One reason that this loss often goes unnoticedis that the small leaves virtually disappear in the stubble. -Certainly, if we left 900 pounds of corn ears per acre on the field, we would take 'notice andadjust our harvest technique. Raking is the worst process for leaf shattering. This loss can be reduced by raking when the hay is still green (no less than 40 per cent moisture). A better tech- nique is to cut, condition, and • " drow the hay in one step, as 164 new, to 'toshilieraimonsedditili ection of a suitable Variety for ixlitieri.i in -the individual field. . • ..

One also has the choice of direct Seed*gforages or planting them With a nurse or,eolnPtinion" crop, suchas oats. The nurse crop, provides an assured harvestable .crop in the planting year, aids in weed control, 'and helps prevent • erosion. Oats, mixed grain, ibar- • ley, -or flaxare the only ones recommended. At the end of the first full hay year, thatildhe year after seeding, there islinerally no real difference in the itrOduc, • tivity of the forages sowri:ditreetly •or with a companion crop. Timing the harvest is very im portant. As the plant grows after the early bud stage, most of the new material added to the plant is fibre, but very ,little protein. The effect of such growth is to dilute the existing protein so that the overall percent protein de - 'clines 'about one-half a percent per day. In terms of total protein and percent crude protein, then, the best harvest time is the early bud stage. . It is important in managing al- falfa to avoid harvesting during the critical six 'week fall period. More will be said about this in the final article of this series. Since 70 per cent of the protein is contained in the leaves of the alfalfa plant, it is essential to save as Many of them as pessible. Most farmers do .not appreciate how much leaf is shattered from the plant during raking - 400 to 900 , pounds per acre! These leaves contain about 30 per cent •• 1 with a haybine-type machine.

Farmers make up only five per cent.of the population but they create nearly - 20 per cent of the market for basic industries. When farm equipment laboiirers for ex- ample, win a pay increase, that additional cost is felt back on the farm. 0 -0 0 Each year a large group of farm boys and girls graduates from rural high' schools and moves on to provide educated, well motivated workers for in- dustry and business. It costs the farm community economy more than $20,000 to feed, clothe and educate each high school grad- uate. That investment becomes a contribution to urban pro- ductivity. 0-0-9 Five per cent of North Am- • erica's population feeds the other 95 per cent, plus a good deal of other countries' population. It is unrivalled anywhere in the World. There is, some evidence that non-farm people are bekin- ning to recognize this. All we ex- pect now is that people are will- ing to pay us accordingly. 4,9 as wits 'W'ijif son Zee, Holland, Is OP' ing ooMetbiaigditferentesEach gamewill ployedin the 4 .° ternoon.
