Mowat, of the Department of Crop Sci- ence, Ontario Agricultural Col- lege, University of Guelph, Dr. Mowat explains that as forage matures, its digestibility will drop from approximately 80% to 45%a for the late -cut crop. For example, when al- falfa is cut at the recommend- ed late bud stage, it contains about 65% TDN. Seasonal yields of any matter won't be affected when cut at this stage. Next to harvesting, the most important factors affecting hay quality are rain damage and leaf loss. Leaves contain two to three times more protein than the stems and are gener- ally much higher in TDN and carotene. Unfortunately, le- gumes are particularly suscept- ible to leaf loss during `hand- ling, This loss can be minimiz- ed, however, by raking when the forage is still tough—that is, before the leaves have j ad a chanceto dry out. An altern- ative, a windrower, while slow- ing down the rate of drying, 'eliminates' these raking opera- tions, also reducing leaf loss. "Rain damage often presents a major problem, particularly with the first cutting," Dr. Mow- at continues.

CIA and CIA Life are joint- stbck companies controlled by public - service organizations, which represent 700,000 On- tario people — Ontario . Credit Union League, Ontario Federa- tion of Agriculture and United Co-operatives •of Ontario. The nine directors of the insurance companies are members of the boards of the three sponsor or-, ganizations. Elected to the CIA./CIA Life boards for 1966 were four On- tario Credit Union League nom- inees, Donald R. Bell, Windsor; Aubrey S. Dalgleish, Hamilton; J. E. O'Dell„ Corunna, and Ken- .neth W. Weathetley, Ottawa,... two Ontario Federation of Ag- riculture nominees, Charles W. Huffman, Harrow, ' and Charles G. Munro, Embro; three United Co-operatives of Ontario nom- inees, Fenton G. Cryderman, Thamesville; T. Ray Lougheed, Barrie, and Robert S. McKer- cher, Dublin. Mr. McKercher was elected president. CIA policyholders and share-' holders heard at their Hamil- ton meeting about the progress of SHARE—CIA's co-operative ownership and 'safe -driving pro- gram for younger drivers. Auto- mobile insurance applicants un- der age 25 participate in the ownership of their insurance company by purchasing a CIA preferred share. SHARE pro- gram participants are encourag- ed to recognize their .responsi- bilities behind the wheel, when• they apply for insurance and. through a quarterly publication which emphasizes safe driving.

Wagon er barn dry- ers also reduce the' chance of rain damage. Preservation of forage as haylage also re4uces time of exposure. "Color and odor are indirect ind,teators of quality. For ex- ample, moldiness indicates lost es of nutrients due to storage at too high a moisture content while a leached appearance in- dicates rain damage. Early-eut hay with moderate rain dam- age is still better quality than late -cut hay with no weather- ing." Huron MP Discusses Wages Taking part in a recent de- bate in the Commons in con- nection with admendments to the Fair Wages and Hours of Labor, etc., R. E. McKinley, Huron MP, spoke as follows: Mr. Speaker: I should like to begin my remarks in con- nection with this bill with some general observations regard- ing government legislation on hours of work and pay per hours- of work. In recent years such legislation has become. more paev.alent in our society, I expect this is because of pres- sure of certain groups upon the government. We appreciate that legislation in this connection has traditionally served a two fold purpose, namely that of protecting workers against ex- ploitation a n d contractors against unfair .competition. It is very difficult to set a stand- ard of wages and hours of work that would apply equally to all Canadians, because of the dif- ferent circumstances in rates of pay and relationships between employers and employees in various parts of the country. -- It seems very apparent -a ser- - ious mistake is being,,,made in this bill No. C-2, which endeav- ours to regulate hours of work performed under government contracts. At times when the work may be taking place many milesfrom the employee's home the employee would appreciate the opportunity of spending more- time on the job in order;• to increase his weekly pay. Many of these working condi- tions can be, and are being, agreed upon. between contrac- tors and their employees at the present time. It is my submis- sion that once a contract ' has been .let at . a certain figure; the government should no long- er dictate to• the contractor or his—employees, Many construc- tion firms and labor organiza- tions feel very ,strongly along these lines. Labor has fought for many years for the right of free nego- tiation with contractors, and la- bor representatives do 'not ap- preciate undue interference with their negotiations. I could say many things about management and labor relations in, other in- dustries and government legis- lation goveIning labor. Howev- er, since this bill is directed strictly at government contracts, I will confine my remarks to that subject. I should like to mention fur- ther that the kitchen attendants and waiters at two air force bases in my riding received pay increases. However at the same time their hours of work were reduced to 40 hours a week, so the end result, was no increase in take-home pay. This was not what the working people of Can- ada want in the way of govern- ment legislation, and this is es- pecially true at a time , when there is• -a shortage of work- ers. . There are some changes I should like to see in the bill. The first would 'be no restric- tion en the. hours of work: all negotiatel paid employee con- tributions should be incorporat- ed into the fair wage, wherever they exist. As we know, there is often a difference in this re- spect between companies and contractors. Possibly a recogni- tion of the different types of construction work throughout the country is necessary. This 'suggestion is based on -a desire to eliminate difficult and disrup- tive influences in 'the industry. I would propose that all con- flicts over freely negotiated hours of work should be avoid- ed in all types of construction Work in a given Iabor market. • Then, too, a 30 day limit should be imposed on the regi- stration of any violation of the labor code. If this were done a worker could not come back after one or two years and cause a contractor,a great deal of dif- ficulty in attempting to prove there had not been a violation' of the labor elide. The''overtinie permit procedure should be limited. I understand that ,this is being looked after. It has been. a nuisance to many con- tractors when they have been required to ' get a permit for overtime work, especially on those jobs where the workers desired to work overtime. .1 would be interested in hearing the minister Clarify some of tcso .pzilf�. , , '1.117 "iggxyryNhl'kR�'+�itIX,.GMA4 MVP 1. tsi 1 1 Increase Your Earning Power by LEARNING a SKILL.
