The Huron Expositor, 1986-08-06, Page 4A4 -- THE HURON EXPOSITOR, AUGUST 6, Heart Foundation receives over $9,000 in grant allocations for 1997 fiscal year The Heart and Stroke Foundation of Ontario recently announced recipients of grants kr the 1987 fiscal year. A total of $9,667,612 has been allocated. The breakdown is as follows: publications - $66,000; fellowships - $114,934; research associateships - $885,125; scholarships - $1,839,671; annual grants - $3,961,617. The Foundation is pleased with the quality of research being undertaken in the province to further the fight against the debilitating effects of heart disease and stroke. Every medical school and major hospital in Ontario receives support for research and 237 research teams throughout the province are funded by the Foundation. Many of the projects concentrate on 'hardening of the arteries (atherosclerosis) and high blood pressure. Researchers feel finding a cure or prevention for these two diseases will virtually eliminate heart attacks and stroke. The grim reality is that heart disease and stroke kill as many Canadians as all other diseases combined - claiming 47 per cent of all deaths.

Interim stabilization payments announced Both the Federal and Provincial Govern- ments have announced they will be making interim stabilization payments for soybeans marketed. between September 1, 1985 and March 31, 1986. Each of the payments are in the amount of $9 per tonne. In order to receive the provincial payment, however, farmers must have enrolled in the Provincial Stabilization Program prior to October 14, 1985. The payments are being processed by the respective government offices and should be received by producers soon. The final stabilization payment will be announced in November or December, after year-end calculations. A W ISE INVESTMENT Present market conditions indicate a small • investment of $4.80 per tonne in the 1986 Provincial Stabilaization Program for soy- beans is very likely to produce good returns in 1987. Applications for the program will be mailed to all those who were enrolled in 1985, however they will be available for pick-up, at all Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food offices during the month of September, for those who were not enrolled in 1985. The final application date is October', 1986. Payments for the 1986 crop year, to producers who did not enroll in 1985 but were eligible, will be limited to 80 per cent of otherwise eligible production. There are 5,751 producers presently taking advantage of the Provincial Stabdlzation Program, representingapple telt 30 per cent of the total number of soybean growers in Ontario.

This rate is unchanged from 1985, with 40 cents of the fee being forwarded to the Grain Financial Protection Fund and the remaining 80 cents per tonne to pay for the operation of the Ontario Soya -Bean Growers' Marketing Board. Other marketing costs such as drying charges and the dealer handling charge also remain unchanged this year. ADVANCE PAM ENT DEADIJNE Growers with, Advance Payments are reminded the last day to sell soybeans and repay the Advance is August 29,normal1986. deadline is two days earlier because August 31 is a Sunday. The outstanding balance under the pro- gram as of July 15 was over $4.4 million, representing 1.3 million bushels of soybeans. Total advances for 1985 were in excess of $28 million- Producers should remember cash basis levels normally drop dramatically during the month of August when the processors have enough soybeeans n storage market to etch the ast until harvest begins w closely for weather scares and other rallies which may provide good pricing opportuni- ties. DOCKAGE ASSESSMIENT CHANGED Two changes in the assessment of dockage in samples of soybeans were recently announced by the Cato/lien Grain Commis- sion (CGC). Effective July I,1986 all samples of Ontario soybeans submitted to the CGC office in Chatham will have dockage reported at one tenth (0.1 per cent) dockage increments. Previously, dockage was round- ed up or down to the nearest one half (0,5 per cent). Also, the use of the top screen for on August yeast shnpliify the meas Creen was used for assessing dockage wilt be eliminated- 86. The p went ofr dockage, however problems were experi- enced when camwas in the soybean sample. Normally, corn is classed as foreign atetial, but large grains of corn sometimes would remain in the top screen and therefore become dockage. The accurate assessment of dockage is very important to soybean growers because the dockage assessed is deducted directly from the load weight of soybeans delivered to a dealer.
