(Shelley McPhee photo) Order noth for windbreak planting Farmers need watchdogs to stop ruthless thieves from stealing their valuable top- soil. Those watchdogs come in the form of trees to prevent winds from whipping across unprotected, fields, stealing topsoil, and damping it m heaps along fence rows and in ditches, says Chris pierce Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food soil conservation technician. Farmers interested in planting a windbreak can get trees at a minimal cost from the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources. Each spring, the ministry makes trees available in their farm tree windbreak program. Farmer$ should contact the nearest ministry regional office now for order forms if they are planning a windbreak for next spring, says Mr. Pharo. Applica- tions should be completed 8 to 12 months before the trees are needed A minimum order of 100 trees is required. An order costs $10 plus 2.5 cents for each tree. Ministry person- nel review applications to determine the number of trees needed to construct the windbreak. Flat fields with sandy and organic soils are usually the type needing windbreaks, says Mr. Pharo. Two and three rows of trees are sometimes necessary to stop Take quick aeon when the freezer quits • When the freezer stops working, act quickly, advicss�ee food and nutrition specialis4 with the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food. First ensure the door or lid is tightly closed to retain the cold. Ther, look for the source of trouble. Should the power fail, find out how long the service will be inter- rupted. If the motor stops while the cord is plugged in and no fuses have blown, find out how quickly repairs can be made. You may need to borrow freezer space from friends or a commercial establishment. If the appliance stops run- ning, food will stay frozen for approximately 48 hours if the freezer is full and the door stays shut. A half full freezer, will keep food frozen about 24 hours. Covering the unit with blankets provides extra insulation but if the power has failed, leave the air vents free, in case the electricity returns earlier than expected. Some partially or com- pletely thawed foods can be safely refrozen depending on the type of food and how cold it is. With others, it could be dangerous. Freezing doesn't destroy' all micro- organisms. It just stops them from growing until the temperature climbs above 4 degrees C (40 degrees F) . Because the freezing process changes the texture of food, thawed items can spoil more quickly than fresh ones. As a rule of thumb, if the package still contains ice crystals and there's no sign of spoilage, • it's safe to refreeze but quali- ty,will be affected. If foods are thawed com- pletely and held at refrigerator temperatures for no longer than 24 hours, vacuum packaged raw meats, poultry and vegetables can be refrozen if they're first immediately cooked to the well -clone stage. After cooking, remove poultry meat from the bones. Unless fish, shellfish, casseroles, T.V. dinners, vacuum packed, smoked, cured or cooked meats and boil -in -a -bag meals are cook- ed and eaten immediately, they Should be thrown out. Thawed ice Bream and sherbet should be discarded. Many defrosted foods become dangerous if held at morn temperature longer than two hours.

Trees such as white spruce, cedars, Scotch pines and the Carolina poplar make good windbreaks. Evergreens are best because they offer year-round protec- tion. Windbreaks are not only used for soil conservation, says Mr. Pharo. They can also increase crop yields, provide snow control, in- crease property value and protect buildings to reduce heatipg bills in the winter. For help planning a wind- break, or calculatingg the number of trees required, contact the Ministry of. Natural Resources regional office near you.

Fair may fold....... • from page 4 board from 15 to 30 years and some of the ladies and gentlemen would like to retire after giving many years of dedicated service. However few are willing to fill the positions, and the veteran members are reluctant to leave us short handed. At present the Fair is carrying a $7,500 debt and has been managed by a great number of past presidents. However due to the ill health of our very capable secretary -treasurer, she has found it necessary to resign her position. We have been asking for help, have run an ad- vertisment in the News -Record for the past three weeks - and have .had no response. sw I'm afraid that in the upcoming year if no one is willing to stand for the executive positions and we do not get a secretary- treasurer, we will not see another Spring Fair in Clinton. Our annual meeting is scheduled for Thursday, November, 26th at the Blue Fountain Restaurant at 8 pm. We could use your help and everyone is invited to at-, tend. Or if you wish to discuss it after that date please call me at 482-3196. Sincerely, Dave Dalzell, president, Central Huron Agricultural Society.
