The report on the variolis projects carried out in 1978 was discussed by Ivan Bell, Agricultural Represen- tative, and Neil Moore, Soils and Crops Specialist, Lindsay. A very interesting program was carricd on during the year, with 89 farmers taking an active part in one or more of the projects that were undertaken. Tests and demonstrations were carried out on a total of 258 acres. Guest speakers on the program were Mr. Alvin Brooks, R.R.3, Mo bert, Mr. Stan Found, R.R.2, Bownianville, and Dr. Rob McLaughlin, Crop Science Department, University of Guelph. Mr. Brooks spoke on Soybean and White Bean Production, and mentioned several of the important factors to keep in mind when growing these crops. He particularly mentioned the need to grow early varie- ties in this area, and emphasized the importance of complete weed control. The second speaker on the program, Mr. Stan Found of Bowmanville, is a grower of small seeds. Mr. Found follows a crop rotation on his farm including a Red Clover crop which is used for the production of forage for cattle, and seed which is marketed as a cash crop. Mr. Found discussed the cultural and management practices important for the production of Red Clover seed, and indicated several benefits such as the production of nitrogen for other crops in the rotation. The final speaker on the program, Dr. Rob Mec- Laughlin, spoke on Alternative Crops in the Rotation. Many farmers are becoming increasingly aware of the need to rotate their crops because of deterioration in soil structure, as well as a build-up of diseases and insects in the soil. Alternative crops mentioned included rapeseed, mustard, flax, sunflowers, and soybeans. Of these erops; Dr. McLaughlin indicated the importance of soybeans and also mentioned that we could expect to see an increase in rapeseed production.

This in- crease in the GAINS guaran- teed income level ensures that Ontario pensioners will benefit fully from the recent- ly announced federal pay- ments, without any reduc- tion in Ontario GAINS pay- ments. The increase amounts to $20 monthly to single pensioners and $10 monthly to married pen- sioners who receive the Guaranteed Income Supple- ment. "Single and married GAINS recipients will con- tinue to receive a maximum monthly payment of $39 and $52, respectively," Mr. Maeck stated. '"Had we not increased the guaranteed income level, monthly GAINS payments for 244,000 - Ontario senior citizens would have been reduced as a result .of the federal in- crease." Mr. Maeck further ex- plained that an additional 2,500 senior citizens who do not qualify for the federal pension and supplement will receive a monthly increase equivalent to the federal increase. It is estimated this will cost the Province $600, 000 annually. Beginning in January, the guaranteed income level will be $343 per month for single pensioners and $666 per month for married couples who both qualify for GAINS. These rates include the quar- terly adjustment based on the Consumer Price Index. by Debbie Menzies and Debbie Ireland "Tis the season to be jolly" and many of our teams have the right to be so, following this past week's victories at P.P.H.S.
