Young people learn from 4-H HURON COUNTY - Young people and communities have a great deal to gain from 4-I1. In 1986, 747 young people in Huron County completed 1,394 4-H projects on 16 different topics. one hundred and ninety- five volunteer 4-11 Leaders were involved. Besides learning skills such as how to show a calf, or write a resume, 4-H members develop skills in self-confidence, responsibility, leadership and communications. 4-1-1 clubs have six meetings over a .three to six month period. If a project is not of- fered in your area, new clubs can be formed. All it takes is at least six interested young people between the'ages of 12 and 21, and a leader, Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food provides leader training and project materials. A yolunteer 4=H Leader -4 required a ge- nuine interest in young people,. enthusiasm, an ability to work withople, and a willingness to learn ne deas.

Gulls do little crop damage report discovers The , committee surveying the crop damage by ring -billed gulls in Ontario recently has ,summarized. their 1986 fin clings. This survey 'was conducted with the co-operation of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture and the Ontario Fruit and Vegetable Growers' Association. • In total only thirty two 132) questionnaires were returned concerning gull damage. Replies were received from 24 •different counties r-angin from Essex in the south west to Russell in the east. One reply was received from the Sudbury area. Of the field crops affected corn and hay seemed to be of most,concern. In total, 21 replies indicated a 'concern over•gulls and earthworm loss. Only eight farmers indicated that they had tried any control measures. Many of the replies indicated that the gulls were more of a nuisance, factor than a particular crop loss concern. This was very` similar to the comments that were made in the 1985 survey. • The survey ;generally indicated that the 1986_season -was - again- one -with -a -minimal dollar loss estimate by gull damage to our crops, It was generally agreed that the 'gull - activity' in 1986 was even less than the 1985 season.

Meanwhile, Lake Erie has set a new record high for early 1987 at 20 centimetres above levels recorded in'January 1986. Water levels on Lakes Superior and Huron continued to recede in December due to below -normal precipitation, buttheirlevels remain above average. • The December mean levels of ',Lakes Huron, St. Clair, Erie and Ontario 'were, respectively, two, four, 11 and 22 cen- timetres : above levels recorded a year, earlier. Substantially above -normal water levels are expected to .continue on Lake Superior - over_the-next_ six_ months, _but_they_will_re- main below levels recorded during the same period a year earlier. Lakes Huron and Erie are likely to equal or establish new record high levels through the next six months, while Lake St.'Clair is forecastto reach new record highs during the spring and 'early summer of 1987. Under extremely wet conditions, Lakes —Huron, -St.-• Clair -and -Erie -would-set -new` record highs all through the next six mon- ths. Under the same conditions, Lake On- tario would begin setting new monthly high levels by February -with Lake Superior'ap- proximating previous records by June 1987. Under extremely' dry conditions, above normal water levels would continue on all, the lakes. However, Lake'Superior would re- -main-lower-than-it-was-a-year_earlier,_and Lakes Huron, St. Clair, 'Erie and Ontario would fall below levels of 12 months ago by January, February and April respectively.
