Seventy-eight Huron County 4-11. Swine Club members—the largest 4-H club in the Domin- ion of Canada—will be auction- ing one of the two gilts given them last spring by the Huron County Hog Producers' Associa- tion.

The. second pure-bred animal remains the property of the 4-H club member. The Clinton Branch of the Bank of Montreal hplds a note for $4,400, due May 3, as money borrowed by 'the association to finance the major project. Lloyd Stewart, RR 1, Clinton, president of the Hog Producers', Association in Huron, has term- ed the project an overwhelm- ing success. It has increased the membership in the 4-1-1 Swine Club to five times that of 1962, in a county. that is ane of ,"the largest hog -producing areas in Ontario. • Saturday's sale will see the auction of 15 Lacombe, seven Landrace and 20 -Yorkshire. All of the gilts have been bred to top ranking premium boars. As the association will again sponsor a similar project this year, D. S. Pullen, assistant ag- ricultural representative for Huron County, who directs the 4-H . activities in the county, has already started to line up the 1964 swine project. Mr. Pullen states that the 1963 4-11 swine club members are not eligible for this year's project. However, they will be invited to take the second year project which will include keeping re- cords on their 1963 4-11 sow and her litter, This market hog project is designed basically for senior members. April 9th will be the date for this organizational meeting in the Londesboro, Hall for both first and second -year projects of 4-11 Swine Clubs.

One reaaon,is because Atrazine* has made corn the easiest crop 'bf all to grow. Now dairymen and beef producers can take full advantage of corn's higher nutritive value without additional labour.

Overall spray on 215 acres of silage corn.,"We're lo the beef cattle business to make money and we have to judge any product by whether it helps us to make a profit," says Mr, Bolger. "On this basis we are definitely sold on Atrazine." Atrazine -kills annual broad leaf weeds and grasses and continues to keep them under control late into the season when cultivations are no longer possible. It eliminates root pruning and loss of soil moisture caused by cultivation. Atrazine promotes more vigorous stands of corn and bigger, cleaner harvests. SPRAY AT THE CORRECT TIME FOR BEST RESULTS Atrazine 65W ahould be sprayed at the time of planting or as soon as possible afterwards. Do not spray after weeds are 1M" high (grasses 1') or poor control may result. Early spraying, especially in dry areas, ensures that full advantage will be taken of any rain to carry the chemical to the root zone.

An ARDA Committee "will have to be set up, in the coun- ty, I believe," said Reeve Stew - Share Project Reaches Half Way. The half -way mark in the winter's share capital drive of FAME was reached by the end. of February, a meeting of Bruce -Grey -Huron FAME com- mittee at Neustadt, ` W.ednes-, day, was told by Clayton Frey. To date, about 600 share pur- chases are needed to reach the objective of 2,000 by April X30. However, Mr. Frey pointed out that more share capital is need- ed before construction can be- gin and any excess of objec- tives will reduce the amount of outside capital and make the members' ownership and con- trol just that much more se- eure, Colin Corrigan, debenture sales supervisor, pointed out that investment of $100.00 in shares by producers would not provide enough capital to build plants with sufficient capacity, to process the volume of live- stock produced. Charles McInnis, president, stressed that FAME'S objective is to improve the- farmer's in- come. The building of FAME processing plants is only a means to this end. J. Carl Hemingway, publicity committee chairman, said ev- ery good organization is found- ed on a sound idea, a practical program, strong leadership and" enthusiastic members. FAME has these components and it is the objective of this com- mittee to retain these qualities through the distribution of fac- teal information throughout the organization. art Hroeter, of Morris, present• ing the report of county fours cii:'s agriculture and reforesta- tion committee, of which he is chairman. . Some counties around, he said, have already organized under the Agricultural Rehabili- tation and Development Plan. The agricultural representative would be secretary, he explain- ed, arid there would be three members from the .agricultural committee and one each, prob- ably, from the Federation of Agriculture, Farmers' Union, Women's Institute and perhaps some other organizationss in the county, The first part of an ARDA program will be edu- cational, the chairman said. The committee report, which was adopted, included a recom- mendation for a reforestation program similar to that of 1963, with $2,500 allocated "in the event that we find land that might be or should be purchas: ed by the county," Contained in the report were grants to the following agricul- tural societies: Dungannon, $150; Blyth, $159; •Seaforth, FIRST, BUT NOT FASTEST The English Channel is about 20 miles wide at its narrowest point from Dover to Calais. The first recorded swim across the Channel was made by Cap- tain Matthew Webb, who start- ed from Dover on August 24, 1875, and arrived at Calais on August •25-21 hours and 45 minutes later. His speed was, therefore, less than • one mile per hour. Since then several. swimmers have made the rough, Channel crossing in less than 15 hours; and in 1926, G. Michel negotiated the distance in 11 hours and 5 minutes. - THIS WEEK AND NEXT The Split Grows Wider By- RAY ARGYLE The past week brought new signs of deepening mistrust be- tween English and French- speaking Canada. There was one bright spot, however, and that was the CBC's thirdbilin- gual television 'production, "A Show From Two Cities." •The program was important because itprovided more than fine entertain- ment. It prob- ably created a greater poten- tial for in- creased under- standing and good will than all the pious pronounce- m6nts of well- meaning poli- cians heard in the past year. But it was a lone bright spot in 'a week of distress. ' And as is always the case, neither • side was without fault. Ray„ Argyle In one of the most stupid and 'll -conceived-• declarations ever to emerge from Quebec, the powerful St. Jean Baptiste So- ciety (representing 250,000 French Canadians), called for a campaign to make Montreal a unilingual city—a solely French speaking- community. That there is absolutely no chance of any such . divisive campaign succeeding, is beside the Point: At a time when French speak- ing Canadians are struggling to win wider recognition for their language and culture, efforts of this nature will have just the opposite result. English - speaking Canadians will not tolerate any loss of their rights . -in Quebec. And challenges such as the one is- sued by the St. Jean Baptiste Society will only stiffen the re- solve of; , some English Cana- dians to resist all effort by French Canada to work out new concepts for the future of the Canadian Confederation. But French Canada has no monopoly on stupidity. There is a rising tide of anti - French feeling across, Canada, especially in the west. This is due in part to west- ern remoteness from Quebec. The geographical gap between the regions is immense, and great also 'is the gap in under- standing, between Quebec • and 1 the west. Whiletravelling, in B.C. last week, I encountered many ex- amples,_of the mistrust and fear which has fastened on the peo- ple of this province toward French Canada. There are two great obstacles now facing Canada in what is becoming nothing 'less than a struggle for our very national survival. One is factionalism, in which a multitude of ethnic groups, including our two dominant rac- es, are still devoted to hyphen- ating Canadianism. The other: is regionalism, which is breed. ing four or five separate Can- ada's, dependingin what part of the country one• happens to live. • - -- These. • -These. are twin curses which Canada must come to terms with if the country ik to sur- vive. -- NOTICE - For Co -Op Insurance Call W.
