Care of evergreens is especially important this year because of the hot, dry conditions that have prevailed in southern Ontario during the last several months. Many, broad-leaved decidu- ous trees lost their foliage early this year because of the hot, dry weather. Evergreens appear to have suffered less, but they could be severely injured by a cold winter if suff- icient moisture is not available to their root systems. Valuable evergreens, such as junipers, yews, spruce, and pine, should receive a thorough water- ing before the ground freezes up, says R.A. Fleming, Hortic- ultural specialist, Ontario Min- istry of Agriculture and Food. ' Make sure that the soil around the base of the tree is moisten- ed to a good depth. Otherwise the roots will not be able to supply the top of the tree with sufficient moisture during the winter months.

Members of the Kippen East Women's Institute voted in favour of re -instating capital punishment for all murders when they met for the citizenship meeting held at the home of Mrs. Campbell Eyre on October 17. Mrs. William Bell was co -hostess. A letter will be sent to the member, Bob McKinley, and also to the area convention. OFA president critical of income ceiling "Clamping a ceiling on farm income is not a just way to sub- sidize consumers, " says Gordon Hill, president, Ontario Feder- ation of Agriculture. Hill was reacting to the feder- al government's nickel -a -quart subsidy on table mill< that freezes the farm price of milk for a year. Due to the subsidy, consumers will pay one cent less for a quart of milk than they did earlier this month. The subsidy will also cancel the three -cent -a - quart increase that had been set for October 1. "On the farm, this move creates great concern. What happens next October 1 if prod- uction costs remain the same, and the government ends the subsidy? Does this mean that farmers must take a price red- uction or will there be a sudden price increase to consumers? "Farmers cannot live with this uncertainty. No farmer can build a herd and run a dairy farm relying on such short-term policies. The risk is too great. This move by the government points out the real need for a long-term dairy policy. Farm- ers need a five-year dairy policy that can be revised annually." Hill also added that dairy farmers and their marketing boards, in the past, have tried to make price increases, modest ones, to avoid sudden jolts to consumers. "If the subsidy is dropped next fall and the milk price does jump by a nickel, what will happen to consumptior There is reason for both farmers and consumers to be concerned.

And don't just stop - get out and do something! The average engine knock is due to carbon, and means you're wasting fuel. What do you wear to drive? For women short skirts are best; maxis, bell-bottoms and palazzo pants can cause ac- cidents if they get caught on floor pedals. Faulty plugs can waste as much as 10 percent of the gas you buy. Keep spark plugs clean and properly gapped. If windshield wiper blades smudge or streak, it may be the weather, not the wear. In areas where atmospheric ozone is high, such as Califor- nia and Florida, wiper blades can lose their efficiency in three months without even be- ing turned on. �C New wiper blades are yours in only minutes at Larry Sniders.
