Report To Bruce County Council
Once again it is our pleasure to
have' this opportunity of reporting
to COunty Council and disctissing
Some of the problems facing the
agricultural industry. We would
also take this, opportunity to
extend congratulations to the Ward
en and members of the Bruce
County Council who have receiv-
ed. the honour of representing their
municipalities at county level.
According to recent statistics
we , the Federation, represent'
close to:2,600 Bruce County fkm•
ers , (with a gross income of over
$2,500.00). Over 1,000 of these
farniers are Individual.
Service Members of the .Ontario
Federation of Agriculture and we
plan to increase our membership
to: '1,500 by the end of 1974. , In
Ontario there are now over, 18,000
iSM's , an, increase of 6,000 in
the past year , and we plan to in-
crease Our members to 26,-000 by
year end. •
Farmers represent less than 5%
of the total Ontario population,
but with this solid niembership we
are striving to insure that" farmers
get levels of return to labour , cap
ital and Management comparable
to other sectors of society: We
want to see a prodUctive and
efficient farming industry , but
it should be based, on family con-
trolled and operated enterprises:
This type' of work' within the Fed-
eration is carried on to the benefit
of all farmers , whether memberS
of the Federation Or not.
Bruce County Federation of
Agriculture welcomes the organiz-
ing of the two Bruce County
planning boards. With proper
farmer representation we feel that
the interests of the agricultural
sector will be upheld. We hope
that the Federation will have a',
member on this board in 1.975.

it's stand that property should be
taxed to finante services to
prOperty, but' that property should
not :be taxed to finance services to
people. Although farmers apprec•
iate the 50% rebate , it is not the
proper method of solving the
problem: Why pay civil servants
wages to collect money and •then
pay it back?
The. Britce-Huron Hydro Corridor
Negotiating Committee ,' 'which
we started over a year ago, is
working , with a Hydro Corridor
Committee of O.F.A. The O.F. .
A. Commitee is working with
farmers °in different paits of the
'province.
TheSe committees have met
several times with Ontario Hydro

not enough information avairable
in regard to corridors; of this size.
So 92 property owners in Bruce
and Huron chipped in $100.00.
each, with help from 0'.F..A: a
Firm of EValuators were engaged
to survey this route and correspond
ing corridors wherever they could
be found. Thit'report is now in
the comtrnitee's hands and will be
used in future negotiation. '
Presently we are waiting for the
Ontario Inquiry Board to announce
the dates, of inquiry into the right
to expropriate the route selected.
We are presently setting up the
machinery to carry out the Home-
stead Improvement Contests,
which will be held as part of the
Bruce County International Plow-
ing Match in 1676.
To further improve the cornmun
icatiOns between the farmers and
the Federation we are -
publishing a quarterly newsletter.

elped to solve many farmers
problems. We alSo snpport the,

.. Canadian feed grain policy.
4. Government assistance for poi-
lutiion control equipment. —

County Council at any time to dis-
cuss problems.
