department of agriculture on tuesday of last week dr norman fish of the ontario veterinarian college staff announced that in the initial tent 872 quarters were fourid to be infected or lofl per cent since being treated the cows in 50 of the herds have been checked and on this test it was revealed the in cidence of disease had been reduced to 42 per cent dhia supervisors t w chls- holm gcortfa it mccormnck and j f teilidole reported that the majority of their members were highly delighted with the results to date true problems are helng encountered in nome of the herds it was therefore decided that such herds would be visited by dr demude vs of the halton health untt who in cooperation with the herd owners veterinarian would endeavour to clarify and solve the problems encountered it li anticipated that further treatment following the second test along with improved sanita tion in some cases will result in the incidence of the disease in the herds in question being reduced to a fraction of its original prevalence mastitis is by far the worst disease problem which dairymen have had to face in recent years in- these days of dairy cows cost- inc anywhere from 300 to 500 and up the loss of even one quarter of an udder menns a reduction in the cows value of approximately 100 consequently the program underway in halton may well be the forerunner of similar programs in all parts of tho province halton juniors send delegates to leadership camps the leadership schools and camps organized by the junior farmers of ontario in recent years nre play ing real dividends those in touch with the junior farmer movement report a tremendous improvement not only ih junior farmer activity but in the willingness of junior farmer officers to accept respon sibility and run their own show this has been very evident hi halton and not a little of the credit must go to the leadership schools and camps referred to above the provincial leadership camp was first organized in 1947 and each year halton juniors send two of their leaders this years delegates arc haroll tyrrell 1st vicepresi dent of halton juniors and betty price vicepresident of brookville junior institute they will

one of our well known halton farmer his com ment was this the margin of profit is too narrow today to permit slip shod met hods he went on to point out that in years when there wax an unlimited market for our agri cultural produce and a consequent wider spread between the cost of production and the market price one could perhaps get by with second rate methods and conse quent inferior products some reference was made to the crop the bulk of which will be sown during the next three weeks fall wheat as we indicated in last weeks cblumn a larger acrcige is being prepared for this crop than was the case n year ago a large percentage of the fields look to be in excellent shape the preparation of these fields hiu cost a good deal of money for labour and equipment to this must be added taxes interest on investment and the cost of commercial for- tlllzer doesntt it seem folly to climax it all by sowing inferior seed or good seed not treated against smut and yet isnt that exactly what percentage of even our halton farmers do year after year no government whether grit tory ccf or social credit or what have you and no farm or ganization can create n prlcj which will makelt possible for such indi viduals to make a profit it li only by mining the soil and by living on the depreciation of bjilldlngs fences and equipment tha careless farmers can hope to stay on the land no doubt
