"A Family Tradition for 126 Years" Atta PORT PERRY STAR - Real Estate Section - Tuesday, July 14, 1992 - 9 Program to collect unuseable pesticides A province-wide program to assist Ontario farmers in the safe disposal of de-registered, outdated and unusable agricul- tural pesticides was announced July 6 by the Members of the Environment and Agriculture and Food. The program, co-ordinated by the two provincial ministries, AGCare (Agricultural Groups Concerned About Resources And Environment) and the On- tario Council of the Crop Protec- tion Institute, gives farmers the opportunity to dispose of un- in a safe and efficient manner. "This collection program is yet another milestone in the pollution prevention initiative. I am pleased to see that through partnerships, we can offer this program to Ontario farmers free of charge," said Environ- ment Minister Ruth Grier. AH pesticides collected will be disposed of by a licensed waste management company. Empty pesticides containers, treated seed or other waste such as used oil and paint will not be accepted. "The success of last year's pi- lot program demonstrated the farmers' resolve to protect the environment and I'm pleased we can offer them a way to safe- ly dispose of waste pesticides stored on farms," said Minister of Agriculture and Food Elmer Buchanan. The collection depots will be set up in 26 sites across the province. Bach depot will be open for one) day starting Aug. 5. To pre-register and obtain in- formation on collection sites, famers are asked to call their lo- cal Ontaro Ministry of Agricul- ture and Food office. Pre- registration is important to al- low for proper planning and staffing of collection depots. cides management to farmers and will be available to answer any questions at the sites.

Belinda is lifeguarding again, and Kyle was happy to get an ushering job at a local theatre. Of course, Kyle thinks Belinda has the better deal being out in the sunshine and enjoying the weather. On the other hand, Belinda thinks Kyle has it made in the shade, literally, and says she'd like to be nice and cool all day long like him. And anyway, she pointed out, getting tanned isn't the thing to do anymore. What with working and going out with their friends Kyle and Belinda are in and out at all hours of the day and evening. This means they're cooking more of their own meals, which we certainly don't mind. But rather than have the oven on and off a lot, especially during these hot days, Em and I told them to use the smaller appliances. It'll keep the place a little cooler and it's also a good way to save energy. e ones they use the most are the microwave and the toaster oven. The less time they have to spend preparing something, the better, as far as Kyle and Belinda are concerned. This is fine with us since the microwave doesn't heat up the kitchen and only uses half as much energy as the oven. The toaster oven is an energy-saver, too. Em and I also try to make a point of using small appliances when we can. For instance, sometimes we use the electric frypan and the slow cooker instead of the oven. They're both easy on our energy bill, and the slow cooker is great for doing less expensive cuts of meat. And, while I'm at it, did you know that an electric kettle will use less clectficity to boil water than a range element or even a microwave oven? Yup. If you're going to buy a kettle, look for one that shuts off automatically. And don't forget - a watched kettle does boil faster if it isn't loaded down with mineral deposits. This newspaper, in conjunction with Ontario Hydro, is bringing you Phil's Basement to help "bring home" ideas on how to save energy.

SUNDAY; JULY 19 10:00 a.m, Port Perry Morning Worship 11:30 a.m. Prince Albert Morning Worship Nursery Care Always Available By The Rev'd Charles Bull My wife and 1 were recently invited to a dandelion party. A group of us would spend a Saturday afternoon digging dandelions out of our friend's lawn, and then she would provide us with supper. What a wonderful idea! Instead of seeing the dandelions as an embarrass- ing eyesore to be eradicated by toxic sprays, she saw them as a reason to get together with friends to have a party. There are probably a lot of things in life like dande- lions. How often do we look at our little quirks and indi- vidualities as things to be stamped out, rather than as things to be celebrated? How often do we try to hide be hind meaningless conformity. rather than celebrating our differences? How often do we wish for some perfec tion we don't have instead of enjoying what we do have? The church should be a place, a community where each one of us is accepted as we are - more than ac cepted - enjoyed as we are. This is {rue among denomi nations and congregations, as well as among individual members. We should be able to celebrate our diversity within our unity, and the church should foster content ment, encouraging us to enjoy who we are and what we have. rather than seeking always for a non existent per fection, a non-existent "enough." If we can cultivate contentment, if we can learn to see the weeds in the garden of life as an excuse for a party. rather than as a cause for shame, we shall be happy in- deed.
