Heifer Calves
The age .tcquirements for the
senior beef heifer calves for
breeding purposes, as well as
beef steers and heifers for
market purposes, have been
charmed to coincide , with the
ane reglrirement, yof the senior
dairy calves, ac''ording to D. S.
Pullen, assistant agricultural
representative for Huron Coun-
ty. Calves must be born be-
tween July 1st and December
31st of the year previous to
the club year.
Corn production and market-
- ing trends was the theme, of
the fifth annual Grafi tl4Iarket-
ing Conference for directors
and managers of Ontario coop-
eratives. The conference, chair-
ed by Fenton Cryderman,
Thamesvilie, vice-presidertt. of
United Co-operatives of Ontario,
was -held in Chatham, with over
100 in attendance.
"Trends in grain corn produc-
tion show a marked increase in
yields and acreage planted," re-
ported Frank'Stone, manager of
UCO Seed Department. "From
1939-43, average yield of grain
corn was 43.4 bushels per acre.
From 1959-1963, yields average
67.3 bushels per acre. This,
coupled with increased acreage
of a half million acres from
1941 to 1963 means -an effective
increase- of 542,000 tons of to-
tal'digestible nutrients for poul-
try and livestock feeds."
Mr. Stone said that in 1963,
17 acres of corn- with a yield
of 75 bushels per acre would
feed 110 hogs. In the same year,
17 acres cif oats would feed 45
hogs. These figures indicate
the reason for the sharply in-
creased production of corn by
Ontario farmers. In one year
from 1962-1963, increase in ac -
Mr. Pullen said it was re-
alized that some calves may al-
ready have been purchased for
use in club work this year
which are outside of the new

year, and members K'a iong such
calves will be allowed to use

CANADA'S POLICING P
By RAY ARGYLE
The offer of Canadian troops
to Cyprus as members of an in-
ternational peace -keeping force
is in line with this country's
policy of. helping to keep brush -
fire wars jrom bursting'into ma-
jor disturbances.
At time of writing, it is not
yet clear what the complexion
x:. of the Cyprus..
peace - keeping
mission w i 11
be, or. whether
Canadian
troops will ac-
tually partici-
pate.
The stead

on the Med

control, either under NATO o
the United Nations.
Aside from strictly humani
tarian considerations of avoid
ing unnecessary bloodshed, th
Cyprus squabble raises the spec
-tre of two ofour NATO allies
—Greece and Turkey—going to
war against each "other on the
very flank of the Soviet Union.
The fact that 'these two coun-
tries 4feel they caneven con-
templ"ate such action without
fear of Soviet intervention is
further evidence of the lifting
of fear of a global nuclear war.
With the nuclear threat ap-
parently de -fused in East -War
diplomacy, there will probably
be an increasing number of 'iso-
lated outbreaks 'involving indi-
vidual non-Communist countries.
Cyprus has been primarily a
British problem during the past
decade. Lying 'only 40 miles
from the Turkish shore, its 600,-
000 population is four-fifths
Greek. The majority of these
wanted the former British col-
ony to be united with Greece.
The island's Turks, on the
other hand, wanted Cyprus par-
titioned so they could have
their., own independent corner.
Britain rightly .rejected both
courses and gave the island in-
dependence. Archbishop Makar-
ios of the Greek Orthodox
. church became president, and
elected to keep the country in
the British Commonwealth.
Beset by many 'economic dif-
ficulties, not the least of which
is a' Serious shortage of water'
for irrigation, the- new nation
started life under a precarious
constitution designed to protect
the rights of the Turkish min-
ority.
The current outbreak of riots
and street fighting can be trac-
ed to attempts by President
Makarios to change the consti-
tution so as to weaken the in-
fluence of the minority Turks.
The island obviously could
notbe left to fester as a Medi-
terranean Congo.
As countries such as Belgium
and even Canada have learned,
achieving peace between differ-
ent racial" stocks is not an easy
accomplishment. In the case of
Cyprus, where its people can
be- easily inflamed and where
there is no long tradition of
responsible government, it will

costs, stating that farmers
should use larger storage to re-
duce per -.bushel storage costs,
He said °thatb.'Iarge volumes of
grain corn are nepessary to
justify expensive machinery,
and that storage buildings
should be kept simple and flex-
ible. Mr. Moggach, when asked
whether new storage should be
built for 'corn, suggested that
more was to be lost by building
in the present grain growing
areas than in new production
areas.
Delegates also asked whether
corn was being overplayed, and
perhaps overproduced. But Don
Slinger, research department
manager for UCO, said that its.
use in poultry and livestock
feeds wasjust beginning. Dairy
farmers have found they can
increase production by 'feeding
increased corn in balanced ra-
,tions.
UCO Marketing Division Man-
ager, Alex Miller, summed up
the conference and challenged
co-operative directors and staff
to do better the things we are
doing now. We Must continue
to use our facilities, our staff
training programs, our advertis-
ing and _sakes programs, "At
the same time," he said, 'We
must work towards cutting costs
of operations wherever pos-
sible,"
He noted also that co-opera-
tives should look for ways and
means of improving services .in
new corn production and con-
sumption areas, including the
production of seed corn.

"Got the order, got a bank loan,- we're , ere all set"
When a businessman wins an order or contract, he
knows he can turn to his local bank for financial
assistance. A loan may be needed for one or more
reasons—to lay -in a supply of raw rnat'rials, to buyy
nen- equipment, to tn;•ct a pr'y'.-t,'1, ;,r to covor r+itler
costs until the firm receive; pay : fur its 1„oc,,ct..
or;services.
With bank credit, companies large and small can
take on xp'rojects they couldn't handle if they had'
to depend on their ,own financial resources. More-
--over, the chartered banks have steadily widened
the scope of their commercial lending to serve new
or expanded short-term needs. Every clay, local
,bnnk man:it;ers are len.cling to producers, manufac-
turers.. f:,r ,.irri retailers and others, to help thein

your local bank provides, to the benefit of everyone
