Noble,1 DON'T overdrive your ability Jan 25 make a sudden stop safely. The annual meeting of the Northumberland County Safety Council met at Brighton on Wednesday, January 10th, 1962. Following a dinner at the United Church and brief remarks Federal Member Ben Thompson, the group adjourned to the Agricultural Service Centre for the business session. Chairman, Douglas Johnston, thanked the 85 reporters in the Survey of 1959, and reviewed the activities of the > organization in the past-two years. Being safety conscious seems motto of the organizations. The speaker pointed out that after seeing a safety film in Grafton, in which a little girl fell down well, that he went home and i two hours filled just such a trap and similar accidents were probably avoided by others. Since this work was started off by a delegation composed of James Bird of Codrington, Alex McComb of Colborne, Mrs. A. J. Calnan of Grafton and Mrs. Douglas Johnston of Grafton, who represented the county at ruary 10th and 11th, 1959, in the first conference held on Feb-Guelph, the spirit of protection from accident has been kept the minds of farm people. The special speaker was Larry Doble of Uxbridge who is President of the Ontario Farm Satey Council. He mentioned that two groups were often in accidents: The fearful and the foolhardy. The former could be encouraged by education on driving rules and efficient handlying of themselves and vehicles. The foolhardy were more difficult but often found by the hard way of experience a saner pointed out that oyer half of the deaths of farm people in accidents occur on highways. In this farmers seem just about average with other drivers. The difficulty of mixing alcohol with gasoline did more than any other factor to contribute to troubli He urged consideration c safety belts in automobiles. Quite a number present spoke briefly on local incidents. The danger from direct type electric fences was voiced. Reeve Denyes of Brighton, Philp of Cramahe and Broomfield of Haldimand offered co-operation. The following slate of officers were elected for 1962: President, D. C. Johnston, Grafton; Vice-President, Mrs. Gordon Macklin, Cobourg, R.R. 4; Sec-Treasurer, Ralph C. Banbury, Brighton. Directors: Mrs. Gordon Carr, Castleton; Mrs. Allin Linton, Cobourg, R.R. 6; Gerald Philp, Morganston; Gordon Broomfield, Castleton, R.R. 1; Paul Heissler, Frankford, R.R. 4; Peter Newton, Cobourg, R.R. 4; Mrs. Carman Bray, Morgans-ton; Mrs. Don Carruthers, Cobourg, R.R. 5; Mrs. Frank Cov- The forenoon was devoted to Weed Control with special reference to cash and vegetable crops. Byron Beeler, Fruit and Vegetable Specialist, Department of Agriculture, Picton, pointed out that weeds were prolific and that one lambs quarter that went to seed could plant two new weeds in every square foot of an acre. He urged specfal attention to the chemical weed control guide which is prepared by the Ontario Department of Agriculture and to observing carefully the instructions on the materials offered by the trade. There was considerable uncertainty in regard to weather temperature and resistance of varieties. Too often the grower caused his own troubles by thinking that if some is good, more may be better. Atrazine is recommended for co^n. 2,4-D is the cheap weed kill,,*. Since it kills by contact the amount of water does not matter greatly, temperature of around 70° is best. The cucumber grower encouraged to consider al-nap. Banded application could be done for about $2.00 per acre. This is a pre-emerge for cucurbits but may be used post-emergent, in transplants one should wait a few days until the plants are well established before spraying. In the question period he pointed out Foliar liquid fertilizers were very much out in value to the usual commercial types. K. E. Fallis of the Ontario Crops Branch in his report was convinced our weeds progress was consider, able. True our waste places were often unsightly, but we had made a particularly good job of weed control on productive acreage with half the manpower of two decades ago. Prof. Glen Anderson, of the Field Husbandry Staff of the O.A.C. led te discussion on field crops for the afternoon. Timing was emphasized as an important factor. To be successful, weed sprays must be applied before flowering. A special effort was urged to treat fence rows with 2,4-D or brush kill, before haying. It would appear that weed sprays for grain now pay in the combining. It is easy to thresh ripe grain, but green thistles and other weeds are very troublesome. Ralph Walker of Niagara spray gave a talk on spraying equipment. He feels the trailer is the only permanent outfit. An 8 roller pump was well worth the cost over those of smaller capacity and the boom gives the most satisfactory results.
