Let's look at the Fedehal
Budget!
There bus been a good deal of
publicity of this government's
"War on Poverty" program.
Much has been said about the
great decrease in unemploy-
ment.
How does, the Federal Budget
solve these problems?
The first solution to the "war
on poverty" is 'a; 10% decrease
in income tax up to the $20,000
income bracket,
Just what does this do to re-
lieve poverty?' -
Those- who have to pay in-
come tax may not be termed
wealthy in a great many cases
but they cannot be termed-pov-
erty stricken:' so the income
tax concession -dioes absolutely
nothing for those who need et
most.
Even those in the low income
tax brackets receive less bene-
fit than the wealthy,
A comparatively large num-
ber of those who pay income
tax will save $25. -to $100. per
year, not a very impressive fig-

In a recent ;article it was
pointed out than 80,000' farmers
would benefit 'from the Federal
Budget but it' didn't say to
what . extent.
I can't quote the figure for
the number of farmers in Cana-
da.• In fact I don't know that
we have a very ,clear concept of
just how many farmers there
are in Canada.
I have seen statistics quoted
all the way from 60 to 120
thousand farmers for Ontario,
but we. do know that a compar-
atively small number of farm-
ers have incomes • high enough
to WalVarit payment of income
tax. We can 'also be sure that
the number of farmers who are
in the$20,000 per year and over,
is extremely small. As far as
farmers are concerned this 10%
decrease in income tax is just

place where they Wry- dead peepie," she replied.. "'How long do
they leave diem there?" "Mways," replied the mother. "Why
••don't they take them up?" asked the child. ''''Becau'se they are
dead bust its just their bodies," explained the mother, "their
spirits are an .Hea.ven".i. "What's a spirit?" Wag the next ques-
tion, At this point• grandmother adroitly changed the subject.'

Ctery lidos history. One recent visitor observed that the pioneers
still thought of home, as their. native land, as noted on many
headstones.
When one reads the inscriptions, the dates and names, oft
times those whom we only know by ,,word-of-mouth, or Naive
read about in local history, -come to rand. Some had liVed 'to a
great age and-one could fancy them here in *neer days and
-the changes Which they saw. Their :remains are interred in this
.sacred spot, but their spirit. live on, and they become .just
as, do the memories of our own .loved ones. •
When Lucy was young, a* favourite walk on Sunday after-
:noon was to the cemetery; and as she With other '"rls looked
• at various inscriptions, they saw "Life".
Here were butted several young Children -- how grieved
must have been the parents! There, a husband had died 'at an
early age, and according to the names •of the children, left his
-wife to raise quite a family, A.husband and wife had died: within
days of each other had he, perhaps, caught cold at his wife's
graveside, or died of a broken beant? At times it would seem
'that there had been an epidemic,
In this old part, especially, someone had planted pink roses,
orange lilies, lily-of-the-valley and various other plants. Before
the days of perpetual upkeep there - were • ;the sad,
neglected plots of those who had no one near and dear to keep
them fresh, (In this latter category the remains' of Mrs', Charles
"Wilson who named Luck's home "The lint," rested.
'ome years , ago, an Octogenarian went to the cemetery
and cleaned the lichen off her white marble headstone. It was
a labour of love in memory of her kindness to him when as .a
'small boy he ran, errandg for her.)
Men there were 'the more recent plats with, modern shiny
headistonei• and an abundance of 'flowers. All these told of life—
etet of death.
• Yes, young child,- that -person's spirits live oft in a More
full and better life is the belief of Chrisltians. And whether
those who are dead-in this week' be Christian or atheist, their
spirits infittence and `protectus more -than we -realize..
While' a Memorial Chapel is in memory of those whose
mortal bodies' have been laid to rest in' *this spot, it is in fact
.a memory to the Living Spirit, -
Wore than one person has contracted 'a fatal cold attending
,a winter burial here. What better memorial, than a Chapel to
,protect the living while they honour the dead?
Bayfield Cemetery is growing more rapidly than was at
first enviisagett In 165 years, the old family plots have been
for the -most part filled. And so the grandchildren m'u'st in
-many cases start family plots of their own, if as many do, they
wish. their last resting place 'to be near their fathers:
. While some do not look ahead to the time they.will probably
-need a bit of land in "God's-Acre" in which to rest their bones,
it is so much better 'to choose a suitable spot When one is in
good health, Lucy knows' 'front experience that having to go
-to the officials of the Cemetery Company and journey to the
cemetery to select 'a plot under stress of bereavement is riot easy,
When Lucy was a bride, a friend asked .her bridegroom:
'"Have you a cemetery plot?" The reply was in 'the affirmative.
"Because you know they are going up in price all the time," he continued. "I wanted 'to buy one when we were first married but the wife said: "It'll be time enough when I go to look for
a plot." Several tithes later, I Mentioned it but she always put
me off, Then. one night she kept herself awake counting the
widows and widowers in 'the district and there were eight
widows to one widower. So, in the morning, she said: "You can go and buy a cemetery plot,"
"It would have cost me a good deal more now, but still
I'd have saved money if I'd bought 'it when we were first
married."

a farmer, a custom sprayer and Os weed inspector for .tambton county.
Split application of Atrazine
makes corn growing profitable
on land heavily infested with quack grass
"Neighbours cif mine had to give tip growing cereal eropa
because the farm was getting so dirty with quack grass,"
Mr. W. H. Dunlop of Ancona, reports. "LaSt year they
planted 48 acres of this dirty land to corn. We applied a
split application of Atrazine, the equivalent of 3 lbs. of
Atrazine 65W. on the first of April, which was ploughed in,
and another 3 lbs, early post-emergent, The Lambtert
County Soil & Crop Improvement Association supervised
this test, The result of the Atraiine application Was that
my neighboins harvested an excell4nt crop in spite of the
dry season and grossed. 0,000 from the 48 acres.
"Without Atratine it would hot be possible for many
farmers in this area to grow none" Mr. Dunlop says,
"Shortage of labour for cultivations, combined with
serious weed problems, would put there Out of buSiness4
