HOW TO MAKE PEOPLE BEAT A PATH TO YOUR DOOR You phone! Whether it's a once- in-a-while emergency or the daily needs and wants, your phone gets you through to the people you have to reach. It's at your service, day and night, com= -forting, useful, taken for granted. " Ever wonder how you'd cope -- without the phone? In his address to the annual meeting of the Ontario County Beef Improvement Association, held ih Uxbridge, on Wednesday January 15th, Mr. George Mor- ris of Merlin in Kent County stressed the importance of corn silage and high moisture corn in reducing costs in the produc- tion of beef. He stated that 20 per acre has now been achieved by many farmers in South Wes- tern Ontario, and that this is the equivalent in feeding value to 9 tons of good Alfalfa hay per acre. In his talk, Mr. Morris em- phasized the importance of ear- ly planting of husking corn in order to get good maturity and low moisture content at harvest time. When the ground temp- erature, 2 inches below the sur- face, reaches 50 degrees Fah- renheit it is time to plant corn. It is ground temperature that should control the planting of corn, and not the calendar as has been the case for many years. . Mr. Morris was introduced to the meeting by Edgar Ward, Claremont. At the conclusion of his address, Mr. Morris was thanked by John Dryden, Brook- lin.
