Amos Clarke) copy of your 125th Anniver- sany of the Canadian States- man. The "Bawmanville Roots" certainly brought back many pleasant memories. I wel remember canvassing for the Screech Owl. I particularly remember being embarrassed about facing Mn. Alex McGre- gar, because he wasn't our family druggist and I felt very nervy asking a favor when he knew we patronized Mr. Percy Cowling's drugstore. I bolstered my courage by reminding myself that Mn. McGregor was on the school board and therefone would or should be intenested in our project. 1 can still see him smilîng as he said, "Now you just tell me why I should adventise in your yean book. " I knew that he was just testing me ta see what persuasive arguments we had prepared. I have fond memonies of aur Principal, the late, Mn. L.

One Friday, Colleen and I had the appartunity ta serve at a party at Casa Lamna. At the time we thought that Casa Lama was the ultimate, of sophistication and we were flaating on cloud nine.

Dairymple, Agriutural Representative Can Vois Afford ta Guess? Applying fertilizer is one of the most expensive and time consuming jobs on the farm, and many ,'farmers are not getting the results that they deserve. Recently in talking ta some of the fertilizer sales people, we hear fantastic increases in the cost of fertilizen, and for this reason, we suggest that making use of the soul test would be time and money well spent on the part of the farmer. Whether we like it or nat, too many farmers still just judge fertilizer requirements by guess work, when they could get an accurate picture of the soil needs with a soil test. Soil and Crop Specialists recommend that soil tests be takern every twa or three years. Taking samples in the fall at this time of year after the harvest certainly allows farmers time ta get the resuits in and ta plan their fertilizer pragram for the next year. By following the results af a soul test, farmers are able ta apply just the right amount of fertilizer which can nesult in improved crop yields. Soul testing can also increase profits by reducing unneces- sary applications of fertilizen. Many farmers have built up sail fertility ta the point that they are thrawing money away by applying large amounts of phosphorus and patash now. In some cases, the excess amounts af these elements have resulted in micro deficiencies, and as a resuit, a poor crap. To maximize the benefit of soil testing, farmers must take soil samples properly. It is suggested that yau take at least twa côres per hectare or one cane per acre to the depth of the tapsail by using a soul probe. The more sou canes you take, the better the sample. After sampling the variaus parts of the field, then, mix these canes together and from that get a uniform sample. One sample should nat repre- sent mare than ten hectares an 25 acres. Samples of problem areas or different soul types, naturally, shauld be taken sepanately and sent inta the University of Guelph separately. The provincial soul testing laboratory at the University of Guelph analyzes the soul samples fan Ontario farmers free of charge. The only cost you have is ta pick up the boxes fram the local agricultural offices, in this case, it wauld be in the office at 234 King St. East, Bowman- ville, and' then you have ta take your samples, fi out the Information Sheet and you have ta pay the postage or express ta get them ta, the University of Guelph. Again, we cannat oven-emphasize the importan~ce of taking soul samples and now is the time ta do it, provided the weather stays with us and you can get aut and get them.

These abnormalities are due to asthma, chronic bronchitis, emphysema and occupational dust diseases such as ashestosis. Industnial and domestic air pollution aggra- vates the situation. This year's annual appeal began officially on November lst with the mailing of Christmas Seals to some 7,000,000 Canadian homes. In Durham Region, the 1978 Campaign raised $81,000, and the local Associations stated objective is ta raise at least $85,000 this year. Lung disease extracts a staggering sum from the Canadian economy. The cost of hospital treatment alone is estimated at more than $400 million annually. Payments to physicians, the cost of drugs and other related charges are estimated to toal another $100 million. To this mustý be added the costs of time lost from. school and work, and the inestimable prcepid in human suffening. Reprtory diseases are the gr eatest cause of absenteeism ofany health hazard, and the cause of more than 19,000 deaths annually in Canada. Figures indicate that the fastest growing diseases in Canada are emphysema and chronic bronchitis, with cigarette smoking responsible for 70 per cent of these cases. New data also rndicates that 79 per cent of ail heavy smokers will develop lung cancer. Since 1980, Christmas Seals have been used to raise funds tosupr the research and COmmnt programs which help victims of lung disease. The annual Campaign is the sole method of support for Durham Region Lung Asso- ciation, and ail other Lung Associations across Canada.
