?TI'W IAN.A1DMN STATESMA!'7 OWMANVILLE, ONTARIO Infern afio Over Can (The Financial Post) Canadian Canners Ltd., Ham- ilton, is at the centre of a storm which has threatened to blow up into a major issue of Canada- U.S. policy. The company, controlled by California Packing Corp., has been closing some of its packing plants in Canada. The effect in some cases has been to limit' the market for local crops and cause unemploy- ment among seasonal workers. The move has been hailed in some quarters as the deliberate attempt of a Canadian subsid- iary ta create more favorable Tobacco Ready For Planting, District tobacco farmers are getting ready ta transplant their tobacco. Ray Foster of Kendal, vice-prcsident of the Durham and Northumberland Tobacco Growers' Association, said last wcck. Mr. Foster said he ex- pected to be planting his own tobacco this week. The tobacco is first sown in grcenhouses, and transplanted ta the fields wb.en thc weather is right. Tobacco men in this arca are preparing their ma- chinery for the spring planting.

FARlM Pickcd Up1 Limestone Use hn Peterboroi iShows Increasel NICK à 3- Peterboroug Among Farmers The use o! agricultural lime- stone in Ontario increased fromn 30,174 tons in 1956 ta 45,730 tans in 1957 under the subvention policy administered by the Field Crops Banch o! the Ontario Department a! Agriculture. This increase was largeiy made up by more iimestone being moved by truck, with 19,085 tons moved in this way in 1956 and 35,838 tans in 1957. In the same period, movement by ail decreased from - 244 cars and 11,062 tons in 1956 ta 212 cars and 9,892 tons in 1957. Truck movement under the subsidy plan startcd in 1945 when 765 tons were moved in this manner. Since then lime- spreading units have operated in some lacalities with lime- stone being moved directlv from quarry ta field and spread in one cantinuaus operation. Areas where the most lime- stone was uscd in 1957 were Kent County with 7,177 tons; Welland, 5,315 tons; Lincoln, 4,165 tons; Prcscott, 4,148 tons. Movement by railroad was hea- viest ta the Sudbury District with 32 cars: Kent, 29; Middie- sex, 24; Parry Sound, 21: foi- lowcd by Aigoma-l1: Musko- ka, 10; Nipissing, 10; North Simcoe. 10. Surveys have shown that there is an ample supply a! limestone in Ontario and there bas been a recent trend toward opening up new quarries. Be- fore this product is available for subsidy, however, it must be from an approved source and subject ta officiai sampling by the Department of Agriculture. At present, the rate of sub- sidy for movement bv ail is a maximum o! $2.50 per ton in Old Ontario and up ta 75 per- cent o! the reduced freight in Norîhern parts of the Province. In the case of truck movemen.t,i the rate is five cents per ton per mile Io a maximum grant o! $2.00 per ton. This policv has been adopt- 1cd in order that ground lime- stone rnaY be available ta far1n- ers at reasonable cost.

Many of the accidents are unnecessary. Dangerous stairways and lad- ders cause many mishaps in farm buildings. Makeshift stairs should be eliminated. Steps sbouid not be more than seven inches hîgh, and sbould not be lcss than ten inches deep and tbree feet wide. As an extra precaution, handrails should be added. Hay, leaves. and dirt should be kcpt off stairs. Make sure that the rangs o! a ladder being uscd arc tight and strang. Every year, fammers are ser- iously injured by failing through open feed chutes. Buiid trap doors or covcred chutes at the edge o! the mow, and then hay and stx-aw can be handied safe- ly. In the womkshop, bang tools in racks or cupboards over a wcli-lighted work bench.
