According to the 1966 Census of Agriculture, over 35% of On- tario's farmers were farming part-time and operated nearly 30% of the province's farmland. A part-time farmer was an operator who either earned more than $750 in the 12-months period prior to June 1, 1966, or worked 75 days or more off his holding during this period. Only the in- come received by the operator for work performed by him was con- tiderecl in determining whether he was a part-time operator-or not.Although farmers with sales of less than $2,500 in 1966 formed the largest group of part-time farmers, a small' proportion of the part - tim elarmers came from the high- income classifications. Low income farmers accounted for 55% of part-time operators, sales $10,000 or more accounted for a further 13.5%. Almost 55% of the low income farmers were classified as part- time operators. Of the farmers in the $2,500 to $5,000 income groups, 32 to 39% were part-time operators. Nearly 20% of the farmers with agricultural ear- nings of $35,000 or more were. classified as part-time farmers. Part-time farmers operated smaller farms, 135 acres corn-- pared, to 162 acres, which is the average for all census farms in 1966. On part-time farms, im- proved land amounted to 86 acres per farm compared to 109 acres on all farms. The situation was reversed among the two highest income groups with sales of over $25,000. These part-time farmers had 20 acres more land per farm than did all farmers in the same eco- nomic classes. -Mrs. Jean E. Caine, this year's chief March Mother for Ontario, :was awarded the first Ability Fund Award at the annual meeting of the Canadian Rehabi- litation Council for the, Disabled held recently in Ste. Adele, Que. In. her remarks at a meeting in Hamilton she said, 'A handi- capped adult must be a-.part of the world or wither away in a shell of total frustration and isolation.' She is the mother of a handicapped child who became an adult - Mrs. Pamela Sayles of North Bay. A few days after her sixth birthday In 1949, she became stricken with polio and faced countless operations with courage, 'met her frustrations with fortitude and cheerfulness and progressed well in school. But the little grew up to become a handicapped adult, faced with pressures, de- sires, hopes and needs of an adult world. *But', her mother continued, 'the misery of a child is' as nothing compared with the an- guish of an adult who has the ordinary frustrations of every- 'day life to put up with, in addi- tion to the constant frustration of a body which is unable to re- act, as it should.' 'These are the people you help', she told her listeners - most of-them campaign workers. The Ability Fund helps them to re-route their hopes, dreams and ambitions upon roads that it is possible for them to travel, to live with their limitations and to make the most of their abilities. The handicapped person is an individual with full-,human rights . , The role of the volunteet is highly appreciated and this con- -tribution is universally •reqogr nized as being of major impor- tance In any rehabilitation plan. The canvas for funds inSea- forth has been delayed somewhat because of the illness of several committee members, but offi- cials said It would get under way next Monday.
