(by Keith Roultson) The refusal of Bell Caaadh's request of telephone toll rates may have derailed the fight of the Huron County Federation of Agriculture to win bigger toll areas in north Huron. Mason Bailey of Blyth, Pres- ident of the Huron Federation of Agriculture made the observation while reporting on the directors meeting, of the Ontario Fed- eration of Agriculture at which John Cunningham of Bell said that because Bell 4ad been grant- ed only a five per cent increase" it would be very Hinged in its building program in the next five years. ' Mr. Bailey termed- 4t ".bad news". for the people of north Huron. The Federation had begun a fight last summer to-have toll- free Aline areas tribe northern' part of the county enlarged. Pet- itions were circulated and found heavy support among the res- idents of the area. The Fed- eration went on to negotiate with Bell after receiving support of the councils of all municipalit- ies involved. The refusal of the increase Bell "asked for, however, may have delayed the enlarging of toll areas longer, according to Mr. Bailey. Bailey also reported. that m m brship in the OFA was now membership over 11,000. with over 20 percent of the members in Huron and Perth couties. Huron member- ship now totals 1070. Three resolutions from Huron county were dealt with at the OFA meeting. one regarded rates charged from some banks for automatically renewing OFA memberships. The rate varies from nothing to two dollars , ..... . , . across the province. The rqa0.. lution was passed, but it was pointed out that there was little that could be done since indivi- dual bank managers set the pol- icy for their branches. A second-resolutionregarding° the setting up of more overseas trade missions to sell Ontario produce, was also passed. It 'went over big' according to Mr. Bailey. The third asking -for- abol- ition of dUfferent fuel pricing., zone also passed although it was 1. felt that nothing could be done to stop the practice except make a pig noise. - Tw.o new resolutions, moved 'by Adrian Vos of Blyth, were -passPri atilie_meetiug Thira4Y. The first called on the OFA continue to press the provin- cial government to put a halt to'vetting' integration amito cur- • lair livestock contracts while at the same time requesting fin- ancing to help replace that now given by non-farm interests. The second resolution call- ed on the Ontario Municipal Board to, in effect, reverse the sugg- ested code of practice which nci`W' applies to farms. The code pro- hibits new livestock buildings be- ing built within 2000 feet-'of a residence. The resolution would prohibit a municipality from zon- ing an area residential which was within 2000 feet of an establish- ed -farming operation. Mr. Vos explained that a house can now be built near a farm which means the farmer Is prohibited from expanding, because he is - not allowed to build. • He felt this was Unfair. Secretary-fieldman Bill Cr-. awford reported on a blitz of Morris township carried out last month which gained 13 new members. 4 4 Notice to Parents .CONCERNING BICYCLE Parents are urged to co-operate in' instructing their children that the practise of leaving bicycles on the shoulder of the Highway at the Park entrance and on adjqining properties is PROHIBITED, It may be necessary,to deny Park privilegei to those children who persist in this practise.
