He even predicted Coultes would, probably be elected as one of the directors of the new group, McGregor explained there would be a total of 16 direc- tors named at the Huron meet- ing and these men would then elect one of their members as chairman, This chairman would repre- sent the county on the provin- cial board along with' approxi- mately 40 to 50 other men and these would in turn name six as executives for Ontario, ' The secretary for the various groups will be appointed by the department of agriculture. McGregor also pointed out the Beef Producers would no longer be associated with the Federation of Agriculture as a group, because they would not be a. commodity group. Bob Eaton, fieldrnan for the Federation, pointed out the new ,association, would he run similar to the .Crop Improver ment Association. Elmer Irelabd :said he didn't know any man who had worked as hard for the beef men as McGregor had and said he hop, ed the Free Enterprise woup would not get their way at the meeting, Form 410)4 committee At the suggestion of Bob Eat- ton, the Federation set up a Seven-Man rural redevelopment committee in ponjunction with. the ARDA prograrn. Eaton advised the group to secure committee members oth- er than farmers to also sit on the committee and see what could be done throughout the area. He pointed out the program was not only concerned with areas that had poor farming land, but the committee should see how educational aspects could be established for the betterment of the entire com- munity, The fieldman noted ARDA ,was backed by all political par- ties, but pointed out the assist- ance under the prograin would- n't merely be handed out, but assistance would have to be asked for after the needs of the area had been studied, Members named to the com- mittee were: Warren Zurbrigg, Alex McGregor, Horace Del- bridge, Stan Hopper, Charles Thomas, Ted Dunn and Oliver Anderson.

(News-Record Photo) Federation Supports Colour Ban, Will Aid Farmer in Recouping Loss Meeting in Clinton, Thurs- day, the Huron Federation of Agriculture directors unanim- ously backed a resolution of the county Cream Producers to pro- hibit the coloring of margarine the same as butter. The resolution opposed allow- ing manufacturers to color margarine yellow. Horace Delbriclge, chairman of the Cream Producers, point- ed out the manufacturers could color it if they wished, but they didn't want it colored the same as butter. The resolution has been sent to various groups in the county to receive their backing. Bob Eaton, Western Ontario fieldman for the Federation, re- ported Saskatchewan farmers has registered the color of their butter and margarine had to be colored outside this partic- ular range on the spectrum. The Federation also approved a resolution from Bruce County requesting the Ontario govern- ment reimburse school boards for their loss of grants due to the severe winter conditions ex- perienced this year when many schools were shut down for some time. The motion noted the depart- ment of education had the money available and it should be paid to the boards on the basis of the November attend- ance. The final resolution approved was from Haldimand County regarding the meat processing regulations recently passed. The resolution pointed out the small operators could be forced out of business and this would be bad as they were very important in a community and helped maintain competition in the beef processing business. The resolution called for some method of inspection that could be implemented without forcing the small packers to spend large sums of money on renovations to comply with the new regulations, Aid Stephen Farmer A Stephen Township farmer, Bdward Woods, attended the meeting and requested support in seeking damages allegedly caused to raspberries and live- stock on his farm by the town- ship spraying, He reported losing raspberry canes valued at $1,350 and also 80 sheep and some mink, which he estimated at another $3,000. He said the $4,135 figure was a "conservative estimate". Woods reported he had re- quested the township employees not to spray in front of his farm due to the fact he had killed the weeds himself. However; the spraying had been Carried out and he con- tended it had killed his rasp- berrieS. He said the sheep had become ill after drinking water from his farm pond which he claim, ed had been contaminated from the spray. lie said the water for the spray had been drawn frotn Water hole that waS filled with refuse dumped there by a Grand Bend septic tank clean- ing- firm. Members of the Federation pointed out the 2-4-D used in spraying would not kill the raspberries, but one member painted out the townships gen- erally Used a brush killer for spraying along road sides. Woods said he felt the Steph4 en Connell Were evading the is- sue because they did not have insurance to doVer Toss from using brush killer. On the recommendation of ob t atoll, a committee was set up to accompany Woods at the next Council meeting to discuss the Matter. The committee named was Eatotif time Ireland; pre- sident and Ken Baker, Stephen director. Reports on Convention Alf Warner, Bayfield, the only Huron member to attend the recent Canadian Federation of Agriculture convention in Windsor, reported on the event. He stated over 200 had been in attendance and close to 80 resolutions had been presented, with the majority being passed. He gave a resume of a reso- lution presented to aid the marketing of eggs. It was sug- gested the government should purchase eggs when the .prices hit a certain level and these should then be powdered and distributed through the World Food Bank. Another suggestion was that all egg prices should be set by a formula that relates the pro- ducers' prices to the wholesal- er, so that if the producer is losing money the wholesaler will be too. "It would be an incentive for the wholesales to keep the price up," Warner explained, • "but I don't know how you would go abotit putting it into effect." T h e Huron representative also repOrted much time had been spent on the question of hunters doing damage to,larm properties and shooting live- stock. He pointed out this was worse in the north than in this area, and said he had been told of one case where a horse drawing a buggy had been accidentally shot. Warner left a copy of the resolutions presented_ for the members to read. Aid I-log Producers Warner also asked the Fed- eration to support the Huron County Hog Producers in the coming election for the 19 com- mittee men. "It's going to be tough," he said, "but we have nothing to fear if we get the producers out," Elmer Ireland explained the Federation would support the men as they had last year and would mail the complete slate of 19 men backing the present marketing system to all Huron producers. Warner also asked that it be pointed out the necessity for voting for the full 192man slate. Past-president of the Huron Hog Producers, Albert Bacon, reported the list of names would be published in the Hur- on weekly newspapers. Reports on FAME Alex McGregor, Kippen, re- ported to the group on the progress of FAME and said Huron County was "lagging be- hind" as between $30,000 and $35,000 was still needed to reach the objective. He said he was still hoping for a FAME plant to be built in the county. "I've been pro- moting Huron and they haven't said no to me yet," he advised the group. McGregor estimated he would save $1,000 a year through FAME, although he said he was not a big farmer. The group accepted a $5 af- filiate membership from FAME and also from the Howick Agriculture Society, who have been affiliated for a number of years.
