"For some time now, we have felt that something should be done to instill both confidence and enthusiasm in the beef cow-calf industry in Ontario", said the Hon. William A. Stewart, Minister of Agriculture and Food, in announcing the program. "We have discussed several proposals with the Ontario Beef Improvement Association, and we now feel we have something meaningful to offer the industry, We have the feedlot capacity in Ontario, we have the silage, the grain, and the expertise to feed these cattle to market weight. Given this stimulus, we are hopeful farmers will respond to meet the needs of the feeding industry, The future for beef production in Ontario appears to be strong," Information and application forms may be obtained at the county and district offices of the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food. The staff will advise and assist producers in all aspects of the program. Beginning.atiOaem, and ending at 5 p.m, the clinic will include films on coaching techniques and talks by two instructors.

The clinic will host coaches from as far south as London and as far north as Owen Sound. The Government of Ontario has introduced a program to encourage long term expansion in the province's beef cow-calf herd. Known as the "Ontario Beef Heifer Loan Program", it consists of a system of government guarantees on bank loans to farmers for the purchase of bred or open beef heifers: There has been increasing pressure on Ontario beef producers in recent years, as they attempt to find a suitable source of feeder cattle and calves. Expansion of feedlot operations in western Canada and the decision to market more feed grains through livestock has greatly reduced the availability of feeders from these traditional sources. Not only have numbers of western feeders been curtailed, the increased competition from prairie feedlots has forced the price sharply upward. A further complication has been mounting losses during shipment, as a result of shipping fever or IBR after calves arrive in the east., In order that Ontario's vast potential for beef production may be realized, the Government of Ontario will assist farmers and livestockmen to expand their breeding herds. The assistance will take the form of government guarantees on bank loans. Farmers residing in Ontario with a gross annual farm income of $3,000 are eligible to participate in the program. The minmum loan is set at $2,500 and the maximum amount available will be $15,000. The maximum loan per heifer is $250. The guaranteed loans will be for a term of seven years, bearing French and Spanish, as well as English, will be official languages for sessions of the 21st World Conference of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts at York University, Toronto, June 13-23.

Stewart has announced two substantial changes in the program of "Capital Grants for Ontario Farmers", which was introduced in 1967. Both of these changes take place immediately. The first change involves an expansion of the program to include livestock fencing as an item eligible for such grants, The revision to the program provides that capital grants of up to 40 per cent of the cost of providing new, permanent livestock fencing will be made available. The grants will apply only to the cost of materials. The Capital Grants Program provides that any farmer who had a gross income of $3,000 from his farm operation in the previous year may be eligible for grants of up to 40 per cent of the cost of certain capital works projects, to a maximum grant of $3,000. In the case of partnerships or family farm corporations, where two or more families are actually involved in the operation of the farm, the maximum grant available is $6,000. Where a farmer rents his land, he may be eligible for grants if the gross farm income of the tenant exceeds $3,000 annually. • Assistance is available in four main categories: Farm Drainage, Farm Structures and Orchard Tree Removal; Field Enlargement, Farm Water Supply; Farm Vacation Hosting (maximum grant $1,500); Removal of Dead and Diseased Elm Trees (maximum $500). The second change in the Capital Grants Program involves the section dealing with the removal of Dead and Diseased Elm Trees. This special program, introduced April 1, 1971, provides for the payment of grants of $5.00 per tree, to a maximum of $500 per farm. As of May 19, 1972 this program will apply only to Dead and Diseased Elm Trees located on fence lines and in open fields and will cease to apply to Elm trees located in farm woodlots or forested areas. In commenting on these changes in the Capital Grants Program, Mr. Stewart elaborated on the Program. "The inclusion of livestock fencing as a grantable item in this program in consistent with the Government's long-range assistance policy for the beef cow-calf industry", he said. "Earlier today, I announced a program of government guaranteed bank loans to beef cow-calf operators to assist them in expanding their herds, Fencing is a vital part of livestock farming, and we felt it imperative that new permanent livestock fencing he added to the list of eligible items in this program," "With respect to the limitations to the Dead and Diseased Elm Tree Program, we havebeen impressed by the very logical arguments of professional foeeeters who are concerned with Woodlot management and good forestry practices. We still wish to see these unsightly objects removed from our farm fence lines and open fields where they are a hazard to livestock, farm machinery and fenceS. Therefore, the program will continue With these limitations." Capital Grant application forms are available at County and District Offices of the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food.
