The actual scoring of the carcasses was, done by John Long of the Canada Dept. of Agriculture. Feed Advisory Program With the increased cost of proteini supplements and feeds in general this fail, we are, finding more and more farm- ers are making use of the Feed Advisory' service, which is provided by the Ontario Minis- try of Agriculture and Food', at the University of Guelph. A farmer may take his sample of feed and forward to the University of Guelph for a feed analysis. From this, information is provided that will assist him in planning a least cost ration for his livestock. In some cases, hie may wish to work through the locat Agricultural Office and theuý,i n turn, may decide to ri in the beef, dairy or sýw specialists to sit down wti him and advise him on the t, pe and quality of protein Lha e i( should use with his own ho e-grown feeds. Thure are three types of anal is a-vailable through the UTni r-sity of Guelph Feed Ad v -ory Lab. A ý!ry matter and protein sanile does cost $5.00 and as is idicated, it simfply indicat- es, the protein and the dry matter in the feed. A dry matter, protein, plus phosphorous, potassium, cal- cium and magnesium test is also available and the cost of this is $11.50 per sample. A few farmers have been interested in the total feed analysis sample, No. 3, which gives you dry matter, protein, pbo-,-'orous, potassium, cal- aagnesium, plus man- copper and zinc. The cost of this sample is $14.50 ""THE WHOL E LOSS WAS PAID BY INSURPANCEVI' An independent local agent offers insurance from several companies ta best meet your needs.

There may be cases, when for some specific, reason, it would be advisable to have one of the more detailed feed analysis made for the feed you would be sending ta the University of Guelph. In general, however, most farm- ers are finding that the dry matter and protein is suffic- ient and are making good use of this in their planning of their feeding program. Anyone interested in sending Feed Advisory Program samn- ples, should contact the Minis- try of Agriculture and Food, to pick up the necessary infor- mation sheet and the bags to forward it to the College. A cheque for the amount of the samples should be enclosed with it. Move Vour Equipment In the Morning Days are getting shorter and work hours are growing longer. La the interest of your safety, as well as, that of the motorists on the highway, we suggest that you move your equipment early in the mora- ing, rather than when you have finished a job at night. If you move a combine or a tractor on the highway at night, you are simply askîng for trouble. Trouble may came in the form of tired drivers on equipment and autos speeding home from work with equally tired drivers. If you work a ainie to five shift, wouldn't you expect everyone ta do the same? Who other than a farmer would expect to meet a tractor on the highway at aine p.m.? Move your equipment in the morning. LIt is the logical thing ta, do. Let's ail play it safe. Provincial Junior Fariner Leadership Camp 1973 by Lamna Budd Whiie the majarity of Ontar- ians were getting back into the routine - school, university or working, 104 Junior Farmers from ail over Ontario were participating in a very active, fun-fiiied and enthusiastic Leadership Camp at Geneva Park, September 2nd-9th. Walter Taylor and I were the fortunate two representing Durham Caunty. 1At 10:30 a.m. Sunday, Walt and I boarded a chartered coachat Union Station, which reached Geneva Park at noan. Af ter registering, we checked inta aur cabins - shared with five other people. At the Get-Acquainted As- sembly, Carm Hamilton (The Big Chief) dîstributed aur headbands - ýwhich were worn ail the time during the week. We were divided into five Indian tribes, plus the "Big Feet" (aur counseliors and leaders). Each tribe headed by a Chief (maie) and a SaIgamore (female), comn- peted in challenges, tribal chants and tribal 'sangs throughout the week which helped create a great "Camp Spirit". Each morning, most of us met at the flagpole for "a Salute ta the Day", where we were introduced ta our theme for the day (e.g. coaperation, self-discipline, persistance). Our theme for the Conference was, "Get High an Life" and "Neyer Say No ta an Oppar- tunity". One of the more interesting parts of the day was aur morning "Discussion Groups", cansisting af ai ne ta 10 delegates, which were. the kids we gat ta, knaw the best. We had ta reach consensus on "Task Shepts", which were prepared befare Camp on such topics as: Responsibilities of Members and Leaders, Com- munication, Evaluatian and Publicity, Alcohol, Commun- ity Betterment. This was a goad chance to evaluate and understand yourself and other members in the graup. "Programn Planning" and Farmers aren't really doing as much to help the commun- ity as we should be. In Social Recreation we -were kept active learning different dan- ces (Square Dances ,Polkas, etc.), and were given instruc- tion on how to lead singsongs, organizing and leading games and contests. Leadership Camp, 1973 has been a very reWarding and unique experience for me. I have found the leadership training has already helped me in organizing social activi- ties in my community. I hope to meet some of the many new friends I got to know again at Zone and Provincial events. "Thank you" to fellow Junior Earmers and the Ministry of Agriculture and Food for sponsoring Walter and me and in giving us this tremendous opportunity for "self-help" in developing our leadership abilities and individual char- acters. Dollar Saving In Dairy Cattie Feeding Tips Dairymen feeding their herds good quality roughage can control their fail and winter protein bills says George Jackson, Dairy Cattle Special- ist with the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food. Roughage quality. will be the key to economical milk pro- duction in -the coming year and Mr. Jackson advises that dollars spent for roughage analysis are wisely spent. One way milk producers can save on their protein purchases, is to have two rations for their herds. For example, a 16 per cent ration for the high producing animal and a 14 per cent ration for the average and low producers. Another way of doing this is to feed a~ basic 14 per cent protein ration and top dress for additional supplement.for the high producing cows in your herd. Mr. Jackson also points our that barleyis two to three per cent higher in Protein than grain corn and can be used as a substitute for corn in the grain ration. A ration using 1,750 lbs. of barley will require 250 of 44 per cent soybean meal to make a ton of 16 per cent protein ration, while it takes 400 lbs. of 44 per cent soybean meal to make a 16 per cent protein ration using corn as a basic ingredient. At prices for soybean meal on August 1, 1973, using barley, would save you $33 for each ton of ration. Protein costs may also be cut by_ using a supplement containing, Urea. Dairy herds should be intro- duced to Urea gradually as it generally takes a week or two before the animal adjusts to it in a ration. It is also a good idea to feed grain three or four times a day to high producing cows, instead of large f eedings only twice daily. With the high cost of feed, appearing to be with us for sometime, Mr. Jackson points our that the small things that a producer can do in order to keep his costs down are going to mean dollars in the pocket of the producer.
