AGRICULTURAL FIELDMANIS REPORT
JOINT MEETING OF KNEEHILL Y"%ICIPAL COUNCIL AND THE
AGRICULTURAL SERVICE BOARD
FEBRUARY 17th,1975
I left work for holidays on Tuesday following our last
A.S.B. meeting and as a result have very little to report
Even if you were interested in what I did on my holidays
I really didn't do anything that you would find interesting
Everything appeared to be in good shape when I g& back
so Glenn must have don= OT: without me.
I did not get back to work until Tuesday, February 11th
and consequently we haven't done much work other than
to get reorientated, write the A.S.B. report for the Annual
Meeting and prepare for this meeting
The thi.-d lesson of the Weed Control Correspondence Course
is out and the fourth lesson should be out soon This course
appears to be very good The Lessons so far have been very
informative
Glenn Smyth and Russel Horvey attended the first Seminar
held in Red Deer, Tuesday, January 28th They reported that
this was a generally good seminar.
Glenn Smyth and I attended the Regional A S.B. Conference
in Ponoka on Thursday This was a good conference and we
found it quite informative We had a problem on the way
up when a front tine blew We didn't want to come back
without a spare, so we pirchased two tires in Ponoka at
$20.00 each I chc_-hed to find out the new price on these
and I was quoted $53 00
The wea-he-r has been rather cold for the past while,
however there are eport.. that for the day of this meeting,
the weatherSthould be much milder. We have not inspected
any of the 1.080 b_t_F_ts s,.nce they were placed out. We hope
to get around to these ;.his week.
We are also plannlnu, on getting out to inspect the
portable and staff.-ionary seed cleaning plants in the area.
We hope to have this do -e this week also.
We have no too muc:1 more planned for the near future
as a iot of our ti_ine w. -JI -1 be taken up with the Provincial
Conference n:-.xt weekenri and the Pesticide Applicator's
Course will start on M,;nday, March 17th
Thank you for the time off. It was good to get away,
but it is just as good to get back
I respectfully submit this

CROPS GhNERAL
1974 was a variable type of year for agriculture. Some of our
climatic conditions were quite erratic Hail in the easternpart
of the area in early Play, a very wet spring, more hail in June,
a heavy frost in earlg September and then a heavy snow fall in
early October placed a lot of stress on the farmers. The con-
ditions also causc,d some very errati.c crop yields that ranged
from poor to extremely good It was unfortunate that some of the
farmers lost their crop or had poor yields when grain prices
were high
LIVESTOCk GENLIU1L
_. Livestock conditions were generally good throughout the area with
the exception of problems with calves in the spring Ehen the
drop in the price of cows and calves didn't hc..lp any of our live-
stock men It is hoped that the Cow -Calf Advance lrogram
was of assistance to some of the farmers It is interesting to
note that only 203 of our farmers took advant age of this advance.
The average advance amounted to $2,528 10 makin- a total of
$513010 00 advanced through our Municipal office
�1EE TI NGS
Agricultural Service Board meetings are held on the third Monday
of every month with the exception of the meetilags that -are held
in :March, Ju�_and November In these months the meetings are
helZF ointly with the Municipal Council on the fourth :Monday
In 1074 we held a total of eight meetin,,s
WEEDS
Generally speaking, weeds are not causing the problems in this
Municipal District that thea are in other areas. gild Oats are
.' probably still the weed that is causing the farmer the greatest
economic loss Canada and Sow thistles -ire starting to cause
considerable concern in some areas. Toad Flax, while it doesntt
spread as readily as the thistles, is becoming evident in areas
that we were not aware of previously Che big problem with these
weeds is that they get established in the more unassessable areas
which make them harder to fret at to control `Elie farmers in this
Municipal District are to be commended on their weed control
programs. I have heard remarks from people outside of the area
who have stated that this is ,generally the cleanest area in the
Province. There are -a.lw-ays weeds new to the area, coming• in.
i'le are always pleased to have farrniers bring in weed specimens
for identification Sometimes a serious weed problem can be
stopped before it ,ets established.
ROADSIDE SPRAYING
-
While the responsibility of controllin- weeds on roadside is the
responsibility of the f•irmc.r whose land the road runs parallel to,
rwe have been attemptinfr to clo some additional control We fell
down rather badly in this last year as we chinged over to a
different spray outfit We ran into some problems with this and
did not fret our spraying program much more than off the ground
Le would like to spray all new construction for the past three
years as well -is secondary roads Then ive would like to spray
any patches of the more persistant perennials
r
ROADSIDE SEEDING
forty miles of roadside on
We seeded approximately
.roads in 1974 ':'e also re -s( eded a number of milds
the grass seed had not established too well We ar
to do this work in the fall as we feel we should re
catch of the grass seed at this time of year
LIVESTOCK INSECT CONTROL
newly
of roe
e atter
t a bei
'e have had a man at the _local auction markets to inspect cattle
for warbles for the past two sprin s We get reports of all
cattle going throu�;la the yards that are infested with warbles.
I'le provide a spray service to interested livestock men for the
spraying of cattle infested with ]-ire or warbles at cost Last
f cattle iaakin g a total of =1.569 head
year we sprayed 17 herds o
sprayed
;;HELTELBLLT SPItAYING
{;re sprayed 24 shelte.rbelts in 1974 for the control of insects.
It is good to sec, tlae pride that some pt,ople t'al e in their
;:;helterbelts In -an as ea such as this, ulaere there is , limited
,rowth of trees, a well established shelterbelt can certainly
add to the appear ince of an area
POiZTABLr LIVESTOCI,_ SCALE
Phe weigh scale was used thirty times last ,year for we:]_ghing
Cw cows and calves It is rented out at $5 00 per day unless we
take the scale out incl dot:liE, wei hing. ��'e then charge $15 00
for the first hour of weil hing -and $10 00 an hour for any extra
time. We purchased a new scale this 7_1st fell as the old one
Ivas getti.n��, pretty badly shook up `tie received a grant of_
$600 00 on the purchase of the new scale from the Provincial
Government
TREE PIANTING
Close to 100,000 trees were planted in the .Municipality last year.
s -,e do not plant any orders of less than 200 trees as these are
generally replacements -and it is too hard to use machinery for
this job The majority of these trees were planted by the
Service Board with no charge Trees are provided free of charge
from the Provincial Nursery at Oliver and from -the P.F.K A
_3ursery at Indian head, Saskatchewan. Trees should be ordered
early as we had a lot of cancellations on the late orders
the are attempting to fill a) 1 late orders at Indian I.eacl

D A Is Report
Things in the office are quite stable
programs announced this year have been minimal
February 17, 1975
i
The number of new government
Of the programs announced, most have been directed at the beef
producer Such programs include Cow -Calf Cash Advance, The Beef Stabilization
Program, and the Cow Stabilization Program These programs should be clearly
understood The support prices set are not a guaranteed price that the producer
will receive on his animals at the time of sale A national average weighted price
will be set at the end of the period during which the program will run This price
will be established by animals marketed through Toronto, Winnipeg, and Calgary
If the national average weighted price at these points falls below the suggested
supl.?r�t price, then each producer that provides proof of sale during the suggested
period, will receive the difference between the two prices
For example, the Cow Stabilization Program sets the support price
at $23 21/cwt Lets -assume that the national average price on April 30th is420#/cwt
The difference is $3 21/cwt If you sold an animal for $10/cwt, then you would
receive a support price of $3 21/cwt, giving you a sale price of $13 21/cwt You
would receive the same support price of $3 21/cwt if you sold an animal for more
than $23 21
Another program just recently announced is the Alberta Rural
Housing Program Under the program, the Agricultural Development Corporation
has entered into an agreement with Alberta Housing Corporation, specifying that
A D C determine eligibility and formal loan approval and A H C will provide the
loan funds and dispersal of these funds All housing must meet the specifications
and standards of A H C
ARDA III, the Livestock Water Supply Program has been reopened
with a caution statement at the bottom of the application form, reading as follows.
"I recognize that acceptance of this application does not guarantee payment to me
of a grant and that priority for payment of grants will be based on the order of
receipt of approved claims as and if funds are available This statement hopefully
will allow the program to run more smoothly and regularly between budgets
It looks as though the District Extension Office could be in the
new building before our next meeting Final inspection was made last Friday and
the building has become the responsibility of the Government as of today Rental
notice in the M D building has been given to -end the end of this month As of
today, it looks as though we could be in the process of moving sometime next week
ME
I'd like to take the opportunity to say that I've enjoyed •t -hl-- a
very fine working relationship within this building I have found Norm and Glenn
very fine people to work with, and with the office)in the same building, we
enjoyed, I think, a very good working relationship I hope that we do not lose
this in our move

Report on Wild Oat Proaram
I started working on the Wild Oat Program on January 14, 1975, by
familiarizing myself with the present wild oat information available To
date, have had 72 interviews with individual farmers, and have covered most
of the areas in this M D except Linden and Torrington I started by using
the Wild Oat Survey Map as a guideline, making calls on farmers with heavy
infestations This proved to be the backward approach, as most farmers with
heavy infestations need the most help and the best information available
Therefore I switched to calling on farmers with slight or medium infestation,
as they obviously are doing something to combat the problem and have the
greatest amount of knowledge about what is working and what is not Now that
I have more information on the practical side, I am concentrating primarily �
on farmers with heavy and medium infestations
The farm calls involve discussing what practices the farmer uses
in combatting wild oats, what chemicals are available, the prices each company
charges, and what practices are working for other farmers, as well as trying
to make the farmer realize how much he is losing by wild oat infestations
The main points of this interview are then recorded on a questionnaire
which will provide me with a reminder mainly I also try to leave a pamphlet
put out by the Department of Agriculture called "Growth Habits and Control of
Wild Oats" with each farmer
When I started working with the program, I went to most of the
chemical agents in the M D to find out availability and prices of the
chemicals
I have also started writing a short column in the Three Hills Capital
called the "Cameron Report on Wild Oats," which will make available to the
public any of the practical information I have collected as well as describing
what chemicals are available and what they do
At present I am attempting to set up small group meetings with farmers
in farm homes and if these prove worthwhile, may attempt to set up larger
meetings within communities
I am glad to be able to do this fob as I know that I have been able
to help at least one out of every five farmers Whether this justifies my
pay or not is another thing The job has proven a bit frustrating in that I
am not able to help those that need the most help, for example some of those
that have heavy infestations could not care less, and probably would not use
chemical even if it was given to them
I would like to get some form of assurance that I am doing the type
of job that you intended me to be doing when you hired me I would also like
to know how far you would like me to carry on with this program
,� --submitted by Dale Cameron
Whereas - Sixteen per cent of the resolutions passed at the 1974
Provincial Agricultural Service Board Conference were
on the Control of Warbles. which indicates the great
concern of the farming public of the province, and
Whereas - We cannot agree with the Livestock Branch of the
Department of agriculture when it states that treating
warble infested cattle would be favored over chargi-n,,,
a penalty for each warble infested animal sold
through auction markets, and
Whereas - Warbles are a seasonal form of infestation that are
visible to inspection only through the early months
of the year, making it impossible to set up legis-
lation to control the movement of cattle into or
throughout the province in the latter part of the
year, and,
Whereas - The movement of cattle into Alberta from outlying
areas is probably the main source of infestation to
our province
Therefore be it resolved that.
1 The whole of Alberta be declared a warble Control
10 area for the movement of cattle into the province in
the early part of the year with some form of legislation
set up to control this movement of warble infested cattle
2 Each County, Municipal. District, and Improvement District,
be free to determine their own regulations for control.
3. Stockmen delivering warble infested cattle for sale at
auction markets, with the exception of animals that are
sold for slaughter, be penalized for each warble infested
animal that they sell.
Whereas - Considerable concern has been aroused with the use of pesticides
in the past with indications of continued concern of their use
in the future, and
Whereas - The common names of pesticides can be and are confusing to people who
are not familiar with pesticides,
Example #1 - The common names of D D T and 2-4-D are very similar
and while D D T is an insecticide that has been banned except for
specific uses 2-4-D is a very commonly used herbicide that presents
very little hazard to our environment,
Example #2 - When it is advertised that 1080 baits are to be placed
in an area, this can be misunderstood and it be taken to mean one
thousand and eighty baits are to be placed in that area,
Therefore be it resolved that -
The chemical companies be encouraged to use common names for pesticides
that would be less confusing to the public
to
