Following a welcome by Mrs. Zegers, singing O, Canada and repeat- ing the Creed, Mrs. Zegers asked how many of the children had hung up the bird feeders they had made last month. She said she had seen blue jays, chîckadees, king- ets and flycatchers which look around the eaves for flues. The roll caîl was to name a bird or tree. Some of the children told how they had cleaned up their gardens, some had buried the flower stalks etc, some had taken their corn to feed the cows. If you are going to plant bulbs it is better to buy good bulbs and you will have better flowers in the spring. The District 4 meeting is in Newcastle on Saturday, Oct- ober 26th and some of the children may want to go if their is something of interest for them. Christmas is coming! Any- one who can provide entertain ment for the program is tolet us know at the next meeting, November l2th. For that meeting you are to bring dried grasses, seeds, corn to make wall plaques.

Agri-.News sr ' ý 0 F FROZEN CoNu - We have received a large number of calîs from, County Farmers that corn that was originally designated for Grain Crop purposes, as to the effects that the heavy frost would have on the moisture content and storing of grain corn. In speaking with Mr. Bill Hurst, Souls and Crops Specialist, with the Ontario Ministry of Agricul- ture an d Food in Brighton, he did point out that there shouldn't be too much pro- blem with corn drying down to a reasonable mositure per- centage provided we get some warm weather between now and the end of October. If the husks of the corn cob are opening up then the corn will likely dry down another ten points in moisture.- We have found that a large amount of corn across the County is testing between 35 and 40 percent moisture. Assuming that we have a week f0 ten days 9f reasonable warm weather, the corn should dry down to anywhere from 25 to 30 percent moisture. Mr, Hurst did comment that corn that is in the milk stage, at présent, definitely will not mature for grain purposes and farmers do have two alternatives, neither one of which is probably too attract- ive to most farmers as the corn that they did want to use for grain is not- suitable for any other type of feed. However, if you do have corn that is still in the milk or dough stage you can take if off as silage and put it in a pile or into a silo or the least favourable alternative is f0 plow the corn down. We would recommend that if you are in doubf as to, the moisture percentage on your corn you get a mositure test done fo give you some idea of where you corn is af present, and how long if might fake f0 dry down ta a reasonable level. With the high costs of drying based on fuel costs and so on, it is not f00 attractive, f0 d ry corn down to a reasonable ORONO WEEKLY TIMES, OCTOBER 23rd, 1974 -5 level.
