OFA
Accepts
Proposals
The Members 'meeting of '.be
Ontario Federation of-, Agricul-
ture, have accepted , executive
proposals for a schedule of action
aimed at broadening membership
and involvement at the provincial,
commodity, county and individual
levels.
According to officials, the
proposals were. made on the basis
that people, ideas and money are
the three main ingredients" of the
Federation as an organization.
The executive 'of the OFA
has called on county organiza-
tions to. enroll at least 10% of
their farmers in the Individual
Service Membership program by
March of 19'70. The primary
proposal is to have at least 5%
in membership by January
In addition to this, county
groups will be expected to main-
tain their Federation group mem -
bership fees._
Only farmers who have pur-
chased an OFA Individual Servirce
Mambership will receive per-,
sonal service after the first of
next year.
The executive proposes that
the Individual Service Member-
ship fee be raised to $25.00
from $20.00 with $5.00 of that
amount being made' available 'to
. a county or local group of mem-
bers as additiOnal finances. This
money would be made available
upon presentation of an accep-
table, active. programme and 2
budget.
The Federation executive
prOposal strongly suggests that
the county or local Organization
betOme 'an information and-lis-
tening centre for farmers'.
In mid-February a review
of Service Membership sales
achievements will be made.
Counties or areas selected at
that time as not having produced
4atisfactory results Will be the
target areas of a membership
campaign -directed from the OFA
provincial office.

'Yup. Just the other 'night

Governmen f Ignorance
BIB emphasizes tbatgar-
reer0 will adjust out Of agricul-
ture only if there are more at
tractive Income opportuaities
elsewhere.
''The irresponsible way in
which some experts, some poli-
ticians and even some farm lea-
ders treat this sulfject cannot
be tolerated any, longer', be ar-
gues.
In the fight • against inflatimi,
the OFA leader states that little
attempt is made to act selec-
tively or to help agricul ture
during the squeeze.
He goes on to comment that
large unions and corporations
are able to force their demands
on society, whether there is in-
flation or not.
Mr. Hill concludes that the
relative position of •the weaker
sectors of society becgmes much
worse because they have to pay
the resulting added costs.
'A CHRISTMAS DREAM
Somewhere in a warm corner of everybody's
mind there is a country Christmas.
You can see it. A sleigh squeaking down
the farm house road through the windbreak of
cedars 'with bells ringing. People stamping snow
off their feet in the doorway and unwinding muf-
flers as they shout and laugh greetings to each
other. ...A plunip lady, her face,. pink from her
labors at the , wood :Stove, drying her hands on
her apron, kissing her grown children 'one by
one as they come home for the holidays.
The whole family squeezed together around
the table on a collection of mismatched Chairs,
assembled for the occasion from parlour, kit-
chen, attic and barn. All the rich, steaming, tasty,
home-grown, home-cooked food. Everybody lean-
ing back in his chair, loudly resisting repeated
offers of another helping.
. Finally, lying in bed, on crisp, cool linen,
covered with a patchwork quilt, a mosaic of
cast-off dresses, bits of curtain, t'ld shirts,
scraps, of memory. Through the frost-etched win-
dow a million brilliant star's light the silent,
holy night. •
It's a dream. An illusion. Most of us have.
never lived such a Christmas but it haunts us like
a racial memory, a recollection of another life.
It has a compelliiig fascination in its, simplicity;
warmth, it's embracing security.
It's a shame that ,Iwe can't go back to that
time, that place -- if it ever existed. The world
is cruoji in about us. The dying Vietnamese
are neighbors. The starving Biafrans are just up
the road, in the modern perspective of. time and.
space. Half the global neighbourhood is hungry.,
and ill. Their need intrudes upon our conscience.-
We ,can escape their disturbing faces 'in
our jingle-bell dreams. Or we can reach out ,
to them with compassion and conc@rn. , We can •,
celebrate this Christmas with the family of mankind.
There are many ways to do it. A Care parcel,
marked with your name, wouldltelp to tellSoicieone,
somewhere in the world, what is in your heart.
Send your contributirMS' to Care of Canada,
Ottawa. YOu'll get back art, acknowledgement and

Bulletin)
Gordon Hill, President of the
Ontario Federation of icul-
ture, has attaqed.Vat he erns
government igftraflice and inac-
tion concerning adjustments in
agriculture.
lie says that too many people
regard the word 'adjust' aS
stock answer to all problems.
- ',But there are too many ques-
tions ignored or unanswered', he
asserts.
Mr. Hill objects to the' fact
that no one wonders: what could
happen if large numbers of far-"
mers are moved out of farming.
He stresses that the net effect
would be more total production
in an already surplus situation.
The . OFA PreSident under-
lines his fears by pointing out
that there could be fewer far-
• mers, and the land or prbductive
buildings and eqqipment released
by those leaving the industry
could be taken over by others with
better production skills.
