Junior Farmers Receive United Kingdom Travelling Scholarships Four rural young people have been awarded the 1976 Ontario Ministry of Agricul- ture and Food Travelling Scholarships to the United Kingdom. The four people that were chosen are: Janet White- head, Teeswater, Bruce County; Donaldne Phletsch, R.R. 4, Stratford, Perth County; Arlene Allin, R.R. 1, Orono, Durham County and Brian Boyle, RR. 3, Ripley, Bruce County. The delegates were selected on the basis of their contribution to organiza- tions and activities in their home communities and their ability to serve as ambassa- dors of Ontario rural youth including over 30,000 Junior Farmers and 4-H members in Ontario. The six-week trip from May 31 to July 15 will be an opportunity for the group to learn about life styles in the United Kingdom, current agricultural practices and the role and activities of young farmer clubs in the U.K. During their travels, each delegate will live as a member of several host families. Announcement of the winners of the Travelling Scholarships was made at the Annual Banquet of the Junior Farm- ers Assoc. of Ontario on March 2th at the Prince Hotel in Toronto. We congratulate these four young people and especially congratulate Arlene Allin, who was selected to take part in the trip last year, but due to unfortunate circumstances, was not able to go overseas, however, she did re-apply and was selected for the upcoming trip. In addition, Elaine Kellogg of R.R. 1, Port Hope was selected to take part in the Hoosier Recreation Workshop to be held at Indiana Univer- sity later on in the summer of 1976. Our congratulations to these two young people and al other Junior Farmers who did apply for the various trips, scholarships and awards. ROP Swine Testing lits. Record Figure A record number of 13,124 boars and gilts in 1975 were Performance Tested in Ontario under the ROP Swine Testing Program. ROP Swine Testing in Ontario is a joint Federal-Provincial Program for both purebred and com- mercial swine breeders. Pro- gràm A for purebred breeders ia two-part program consist- ing of a home performance test of boars and gilts and a Central Station Test of boars. Program B, which com- menced in 1975 provides commercial herd owners with the home performance test of potential herd replacements as designed primarily to be used for selecting replace- ment 'gilts from within the herd. The average performance of boars and gilts tested continue to improve in 1975 indicating that real progress is being made by breeders on the performance testing program. For example since 1967 when the Home Performance Test- ing Program for boars was initiated, the average backfat thickness of boars tested bas decreased by .23 inches - an average decrease of almost .03 inches per year - while the average age at 200 pounds is decreased by 12 days. In 1975, 113 purebred breeders tested boars and 120 breeders tested gilts under Program A, while 40 commercial breeders en- rolled in Program B. A total of 1,345 gilts were Performance Tested in these commercial herds. t should be pointed out that for swine producers, these breeders provide an excellent source of breeding stock because of their per- formance 'testing and the up-grading in their herds they Library Board Request Sidewalk and Parking Rather than requesting additional funds for books, the Newcastle Library Board con- fronted council April 5 wîth a request for a sidewalk along the west side of Temperance Street and additional 'parking spaces in front of the Bow- manville branch., Board Chairman Pat Best made the dlaim to council that the lack of a sidewalk along the west side has created a dangerous hazard to both young and old attending the facility. Mrs. Best reported that the extension of services and introduction of a wider sel- ection of books at the library_ bas brought a rise in member- ship to 7,060, a 'number she suggested is far too large to cope with oncoming traffic when crossing the street, have done based on the resuits. We do have lists of the breeders involved in the Performance Testing Pro- grams and anyone who is looking for good performance tested breeding stock can cal the Agricultural office and obtain names of breeders across the province. particularly for younger child- ren. The second problem which the membership increase bas created is parking and the board chairman suggested to council that the flower beds in front of the building be removed and paved to provide some additional parking area. Mrs. Best said the board willingly admits that' its library cannot compete with larger ones in Durham, but the board feels that such a small service would enhance the Bowmanville library's attraction to residents. When asked by Coun. Ivan Hobbs whether the board had received any forir complaints from library p&ý_-, rons about the lack of a sidewalk or insufficient park- ing, Mrs. Best replied, "that's the beauty of a small com- munity, you don't hear com- plaints. " The matter was referred by council to the Works Corn-, mittee to consider and report on it. Keep your piano free from dampness, away fromn steam pipes or stoves, and out of drafts. 1NEWHOUSES, HILTS Chartered Accountants J. C. Newhouses, C.A. G. A.

Making a difficuit skill look deceptively simple, she turned out two small pots and this larger pitcher in the course of 10 minutes. The handie for the pitcher will be added at a later stage when the dlay is 'leather hard'. Pottery has been the most popular course at the Centre during the past three months, and the Cream of Barley Mill is now equipped with a wheel and a large new kiln. In the near future, two more wheels will be installed. by Rod Stork, because o Assoc. Agricultural of farmer Representative there.
