Dairy farmers were urged to meet a
larger per cent of their rpilk supply quota at
the annual meeting of the Huron County
Milk Producers held Friday in the Brussels,
Morris and Grey Community Centre,
Brussels.
Although members of the Ontario Milk
Marketing Board recognized the controver-
sy on over production they told dairy pro-
ducers at least 98.5 per cent of the quota was
needed, rather than the 96.per cent current-
ly being realized.
Changes in the levy structure and the in-
crease in fluid sales and corresponding
higher ,payout percentages prompted this
request of producers to fill a larger per cent,
possibly even 100 per cent, of their MSQ.
Representatives from the. Ontario Milk.
•Marketing Board told Huron County pro-
ducers they were running close to the same
pattern as other producers in the province,
and added total marketings would have to
be one per cent higher than a year ago, on
average, for each of..the remaining months
of the dairy year to fill the provincial quota.
Total milk marketings to the board were
2.2 per cent lower -in January 1987 than in

January 1986. Total marketings have hw^^
lower, compared to the same month a year
ago, for eight months in a row. The OMMB
said it expected the trend towards lower
decreases in milk marketings, compared to
a year ago, to, continue as producers res-
pond to the revised levy structure and ad-
just their feeding programs to compensate.
for poorer quality feed.
Under the current levy structure the
recently reduced within -quota levy of $4.65
per hl applies up to 98.5 per cent of MSQ and
a special export rate of $27.50 per hl applies
on the remaining 1.5 per cent of MSQ. The
full overquota levy rate of $38hlapplies on
shipments over 100 per cent of MSQ.
The percentage. levels of MSQ at which
different levy rates apply will be adjusted a
year-end to reflect any under utilisation by
producers within the province. A year-end
adjustment for increased domestic re-
quirements was not anticipated at this stage
due to declining butter sales.
Dr. Jim Ashman, of the Dairy Inspection
Branch, entertained the Huron County

anything else that comes from animals. '

slide presentation on the new dairy inspec-
tion laboratory in Guelph, and assured
farmers that the milk testing process, like
the American government, was a system of
checks and balances.
"The system was designed with four
separate checks if you want to take it that
far," he said, adding farmers should use it,
if they feel they haven't been given a "fair
crack".
"We are trying to do as much as we
possibly can to ensure the test results are
accurate." .

Deep end, diving boar
Dear Editor:
If the town is considering spending over
three million d'ollars.on a recreational com-
plex, I think. it is inappropriate to have a
4.5 -foot pool with only three lanes, no deep
end and no diving board. It would not be
much more than a wading pool. Andwhat
about the main attraction, a diving board?'
At the Gooderham pool, the diving board
is used extensively. Vanastra's pool is 9.5
feet deep. at one end with a low diving board
(too low) and many car loads of people from
Goderich , go there regularly to swim and
dive. At nights especially there is always a
a must
LLTi ERS
,line-up for the board.,
If children are taught to swim in show
water with no deep end 1 fear once they can
swimthey will eventually dive and take a
deep dive with subsequent serious injury.
