Will Supervise Plant In Ireland Mr. R. B. Teskey, B.S.A. Poultry Geneticist at Peel's Poultry Farm Ltd., Port Perry, Ontario, Canada has just left for Lisburn, Northern Ireland and will be there during January. To enable Peel's to offer their broiler breeding stock in the United Kingdom it was necessary that Peel's Poultry Breeders of Canada Ltd, establish a broiler breeding farm in Northern Ireland. Early in 1965 foundation stock was shipped to Ireland in the form of hatching eggs and once hatched the chicks were placed under quarantine and the close supervision of the Minis- try of Agriculture in Ulster for six months. ' Peel's stock has now passed the rigid serological and bac- teriological tests conducted by the Ministry, and Mr. Teskey has gone to Lisburn, Northern Ireland to supervise the final strain selection of the pedigree grandparent lines. ..Commenc- ing in January Peel's is now in a position to offer trial lots of breeding stock and broilers. The Peel's "Canuck" (white fleshed) broiler breeder male and the Peel's #132A broiler breeder female will now be available in the United Kingdom. Dr. D. J. Price, Chairman, Peel's Poultry Breeders of Canada Ltd., will also be in Lisburn this month to discuss future expansion plans on the farm with the Managing Director, Mr; D. G.

The annual meeting of the Ontario County Soil and Crop Improvement Association was held in the Legion Hall, -'Ux- bridge, on , Thursday, January 6th, 1966, with approximately 100 farmers in attendance. The meeting started at 10,30 a.m,, with President, Walter Beath, Oshawa, #2, in charge. The report on the various projects carried out in 1966 were discussed by Lynn Fair, Agricultural Representative, & Harvey Wright, Regional Soils and Crops Specialists, for this area; and the various co-opera- tors who took part in the differ- ent tests and demonstrations during the year, A very interesting programme was carried out during the year; 11 different farmers took an active part in one or more crop improvement projects this year, Tests and demonstrations were carried out on a total of 135 acres. : Mr. James MacDonald, West- ern Ontario Agricultural School, Ridgetown, addressed the meet- ing. The subject of his address was the utilization of the corn crop. He emphasized the import- ance of corn as silage, and also as a high energy feed as shell- ed corn or high moisture corn. He also emphasized that in or- der to get good quality corn that it was necessary to plant a variety with a maturity suit- able to the area, to make sure there was plenty of soil fertil- ity; that weeds were controlled; and that the corn was put in the silo at the right stage of maturity. He said that the right stage of maturity would be when the kernel of corn was down to around 35% moisture. This would mean that the whole plant would be around 66% moisture. Mr, MacDonald also explained a number of feeding trials that had been conducted during the last few years on both beef and dairy cattle at the Western Ontario Agricul- tural School, It was decided to hold the Annual Seed Fair & Hay Show again this year, The detail re- garding the place, date, and the programme was turned over to the 1966 officers and directors.
