Annual Meeting A very successful Annual Meeting was held in Orono on January 9th. The highlights of the day being discussions of Winter Kill in Alfalfa and Gettingthe Most from Your Home Grown Fertilizer - Barnyard Manure. Neil Moore, Soil & Crop Specialist from Lindsay, out- lined the projects that have been carried out in the area during the year; discussing Slot work regarding oat, arley and wînter wheat varieties as well as control-of weeds in soybeans. Prof . Bob Fulkerson from the University of Guelph discussed Winter Kill in.Alfal- fa - using sldes to illustrate the effects of snow cover, the effects of ice cover and the fact that leaving the crop an opportunity to build up be- tween each cutting, rather than pasturing immediately, diii assist in proloneing the stand of alfalfa. He ponted out that leaving a stand from mid-September, so that there was ,sufficient growth to keep the ice off the eround and allow breathing dîd certainly assist in maintenance of the crop. The slides indicated very dramatically the effects of good management of our alfalfa crops. Prof. Tom Lane, also, from the University of Guelph, discussed the Use of Barnyard Manure and its economic value to the farmer. He, pointed out the pros and cons of liquid manure versus solid manure and stated that either systemn properly managed with the solid manure being fproperly stored and cared for, Ieft about the same amount of plant food in each case. In talking to farmers, who were at the meeting that day. they have all commented on the same fact that if you have a good systern now, in most ATTENTION FARMERS!1 WHY PAT MOREle SAVE ON IREMIIJM QUALITY, SGAS - .DIESEL FUEL MbTOR OIL Prompt Deivery I Please Cail Collect DX OIL wHITeY 6-3381 1650 Dundas St. E. Whitby cases,' the cost of changing are not warranted. In some cases, however, it may be a case of labour and some farmers may feel that a change is warrant- ed. One thing is certain that good barnyard manure can save dollars and if it is app4ied at the proper time,, it will certainly save dollars as far as nitrogen costs are concern- ed.
