T. MONTEITH EXETER LTD. 235-2121 "The best in service when you need it most!" OFA on The campaign of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture to withhold education taxes is going ahead. A meeting with the Ontario government failed to produce any satisfactory proposals by the government to deal with the situation which is hurting farmers across the province. "Mr. Stewart, Mr. MacNaughton, Mr. McKeough, and Mr. Davis all agreed that something has to be done but, so far, nothing has been done," said OFA President, Gordon Hill. The results, and lack of action resulting from the meeting, were reported to the monthly members' meeting, and plans to go ahead were explained to the representatives from across the province. James Jacklin of Elmwood, Ontario, told the members that almost every member of the Bruce County Council had signed the Federation petition calling for the cost of education to be taken off property. There was some discussion of the need to get education tax off A six year-old boy and a pair of sisters from Usborne township walked off with the major honours in Friday's Hensall calf club show held in conjunction with the Hensall Spring Fair. Murray McGregor, six-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Jim McGregor of Kippen won the award for the best finished calf and the Times-Advocate trophy with his 941-pound heifer which was also the heaviest animal in the show. The reserve chatnpionship went to Elaine Stewart, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Stewart, while sister Marlene placed third in the best finish competition. The two champions also took the prizes for the most pounds gained since arriving at the farm of their owners last fall. Elaine Stewart's calf gained 454 pounds, one more than Murray McGregor's pride and joy. Due to the fact the calves were not all purchased the same day, all property. Several farmers have been told by assessors that if education taxes are taken off farm land only, it would be quite easy to increase the assessment on the buildings and a plot of land around the buildings, and so end up with the same tax load as before. OFA executive member Bruce Taylor urged farmers to send in petitions and letters to the OFA office at 387 Bloor Street East in Toronto, urging the government Rabbit coat is modelled The regular meeting of the South Huron Rabbit Breeders' Association met Tuesday, June 9 in the Elimville Hall. President Dave Stanley was in charge of the business. A vote of thanks was given to the show committee for a job well done. Harold Smith of Rabbit Meat Industries, Wardsville was guest speaker. His wife Betty modelled a coat made of rabbit pelts. A Dutch Auction was won by Angus Murray and a lunch served. Linda Hackney's calf gained an average of 2,12 pounds per day good for second place. Elaine Stewart's animal gained 2,203 pounds per day while Murray McGregor's was up 2.199 pounds each day. Top showman of the 53 members of the Hensall calf club that showed their calves was Brad Hargreaves while Hugh Ryan received thejunior showmanship award, Bob Kinsman was runner-up in the senior division while Brian Pym was second in the junior section. Jim Darling of Darling's IGA in Exeter purchased the two top calves paying 461/4 cents per' pound for the grand champion and 391/4 cents per pound for Elaine Stewart's reserve champion. The top price paid a year ago was 461/2 cents per pound with an average price of 36 cents per pound. Bill Coleman of the Calf Club said this year's average price to take immediate action to take education taxes off property. "Owning a farm or a house does not prove that you have the ,t:ability to pay taxes. The income and corporation tax measure ability to pay and that's where the money must come from to pay for education. Farmers want to pay their fair share, but fair share depends on the income of the individual," said Mr. Taylor.
