I Stomp Notes Variety of mounts available on market BY ROWSHRIER ' One problem confronting collectors today more than ever is how to'mount their collection. There .are over a dozen dif- ferent companies manufac- turing mounts, including Dennisogi, Harris (Crystal Mounts), Marlate, Scott, Harco, Prytan, ' Lighthouse (Hawid), Gibbons, as well as several hinge manufacturers. With so many to choose from, it's hard to know what is right for your needs. Hopefully I can ,clarify things somewhat. One common misconception among young collectors sub- scribing to Harris approvals is that the Crystal Mount: is a great way to mount mint stamps. It is far front the best; and barely borders on adequate. It is no cheaper than other superior mounts, it does a bad job of holding the stamp in place, its gumming is often faulty,. and if it sticks, it ;is , nearly impossible to remove it without damaging the page. .C'rystal mounts are ,not good mounts, and this is the opinion ' • of many, Marlat'e mounts are 'relatively new to the market, • •• but they .are undoubtedly the most handsome,.

It is a very inexpensive mount. The three mounts mentioned above are available either in strips or cut to size. The PM or Protective Mount is a popular mount around here although it is rather expensive. It is a self-adhesive piece of black stock covered ,on three sides by a folded plastic sheet, Thetop is folded over and the adhesive removed when the stamp is in and ready to be mounted. It lasts well, although it cannot be removed without damaging the page, and sometimes there may not'' be 'enough adhesive on the back. It is a good mount, but definitely not worth the money.. The above mounts can all -be obtained by, mail order. Check the accessories advertisements in Linn's stamp news. In all cases samples are available from the company.

Calf program The Ontario Government has announced the introduction of the Ontario Beef Calf Income Stabilization Program as the first such program to' which reference was made in the budget speech last April. • The voluntary program is based on the insurance prin- ciple whereby a stabilization fund will be 'established from` the producer and 'Government premium's with the Ontario " government adding $2,00 to the . fund for each $1.00 of .pr'oducer premiums. The program provides for the establishment of an ANNUAL SUPPORT LEVEL for weaned calves and if the average price , of weaned calves for that year falls below the support level' a .payment will -be calculated" back to a per cow basis and paid from the fund. As mentioned above, `-the program follows the insurance principle and consequently is not designed ,to cover the "'full costs . of production. The sup- -port level is established on the basis of covering 100 percent of the cash operating costs in a cow -calf operation and a partial percentage of the costs associated with labour, management and return on investment. - Ontario cow -calf producers who opt' to enrol in the program must loin for a minimum period of five years. There is no maximum on ,the number 'of cows which may be enrolled in the program by a producer and a producer may join the program during the enrolment period in any year. Over a five- year period SHOPPE Excellent Selection For Every_ • Family Member 0 c > GODERICH payment into and out of the - stabilization fund 'should balance. The program assumes that'a 450 ib. weaned calf will' be -sold from 85 percent of the cow herd and ,payment made, regardless "of, whether the enrolled producer keeps or sells his calves.. Cows enrolled' with the Canadian ..D'airy Commission (and hence shipping fluid or industrial milk)' ate not eligible for the program. Program Details: 1. Per cow premium to the producer - $5.00; 2. For, 19.75 a support level of 50c per lb. for weaned calves is' established; 3. ' Weaned . calf prices for 'Northern Ontario stocker sales and the Ontario Public Stock 'Yards during • September,' October arid November will be used to establish the calf price; 4, Producers who wish to enrol must do .so by August' 31 each year; 5. For 1975, because of ' the limited time available, no premium will be paid by producers who enrol but rather the premium will be deducted from the gross per cow, payment declared; 6 In the event of calf prices falling below the 'support level during September, Octoberland November, of, each year, a payment will be declared and 'made.,,,,frorn the fund in December'of that year;'.' ' "7. Application .forms and in- formation on the program will .be available ' l'h County and ' district offices of the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food, example for 1975: Support level - 50c; Assume that the average price . 'for weaned calves, this fall will be 40c per lb. Price deficiency - l0c per Ib. 1Qc per lb x 450 lbs - $45,00 per calf; $45.00 x .85 - $38.25 per cow. For 1975' on the basis of this example the net.payment to the producer from the fund would be made of•$38.25 minus $5.00 - $ 25 per cow enrolled in the, p gra n,1,. • You are invited to attend a Garden Luncheon with Stephen Lewis' &PauI Carroll MONDAY .AUG: 25 12:45 TO 2 p.m.' at•.196 Wilson Street, Goderich LIGHT RE#RESHMENTS WILL „ BE SERVED (Authorized by, Huron -Middlesex N.D.P.' size. They consist of two sheets of a plastic on a black paper background. The stamp is placed between the plastic. It has a very fibrous surface, so it grips the perforations and keepsthe stamp secure. s, It does have its drawbacks. There is not yet a way to adhere it to the album , page, without having wrinkles on the paper. But it ,is one of the most economical mounts sold, making it popular with people with large.collections. Scott mounts are :Scott's answer to the mount problem. They are a' regular premium - priced mount, arch as the Lighthouse. They . are com- posed of a specially -formulated plastic compound made so that it doesn't ° discolor the stamp after prolonged use, and so that it grips the fibres ion the .•per- forations. It is available only with an indigo blue background, . and ,the top and bottom are closed, so "the mount .cannot be ad- justed for height. The'opening is the back of the mount, so, once mounted, the stamp 'can only be removed through the .sides: They keep well, and they are peelable from most heavy bonded stock pages. - Another type of mount siniilar to the ,Scott, and a big favorite among collectors is the Hawid made by Lighthouse. This is one . of the most ex- pensive mounts . made, but its advantages far outweigh its price, 'It is. made of a higher quality plastic than" the Scott, grips better, comes • in four different colours plus tran- sparent, and unlike Scott, it is NPRSE SETTLEMENT IN NEWFOUNDLAND FOUND FOUND GTIG ROUGH It has been known for some years that,a small settlement of Norsemen or Vikings was establishes, around the .' year 1000 at the northeastern tip of' Newfoundland. There have been suggestions that the' cli mate and `vegetation at that time may have been more attractive for, settlement. This notion has now been dispelled by a team of geologists of the, Geological Survey of Canada, Energy, Mines and Resource . They took soil, peat, ashes anal other samples, and, ' after analyzing them, concluded that there had been no significant changes In climate in the last 1,000 years, and that the• vegetation' was mostly scrub.
