"Farm vacations are a new . way of enjoying a family holiday at reasonable cost with the comforts of home and the space and interests of a farm," said Rae Cunningham of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture. "Hotels are not everyone's idea of the best place for a family holiday and they are certainly not the cheapest, Camping may be cheap, but not always the most comfortable. Farm vacations offer the best of both worlds," he said. Children can enjoy the space, the animals, the trees and fields, and new friends. Many of the farms have ponies or riding horses, Several of the farms will take children who are not accompanied by adults. Costs vary, but are usually $50 to $60 per person per week for an all-inclusive holiday. Brochures, listing a wide range of farm vacation hosts, are available from the Ontario Federation of Agriculture, Suite 502,387 floor Street East, Toronto, Ontario. The OFA has been working to promote this program for a number of years. They are hoping that the number of host families will increase each year, to keep up with the demand by urban families for a farm vacation.

Mr. McDougall pointed out that the system means a minimum take-home price of $1.53 to producers after board deductions compared to $1.64 last year. However, he emphasized that with the provision for rebate, it is the hope of everyone concerned, the end price will be substantially higher than the $1.53 level. He concluded by saying the only other change in the 1970 wheat marketing agreement which comes into effect July 1 involved adjustment of discounts assessed by the board. 5, The marketing board will cover costs of marketing the 1970 crop purchases by means of the accumulated two sources of income — (16c levy and 12c dealer payment). 6. At year end, any balance of the levies not required to maintain the two price system will be subject to rebate to producers. 7. The minimum price will escalate to a high of $1.80 from $1.70, the basic price to producers, and by the same amount paid by processors — Middlesex group holds meeting The Middlesex Federation of Agriculture held its June meeting in the board room on Talbot Street, London, with John Kavalaars president as chairman.

Used Haying Equipment The price of Ontario winter wheat to producers for the 1970 crop has been dropped from last year's level of $1.82 to $1.70 per bushel, it'was announced today. It means that initially producers will receive 12 cents per bushel less than they received last year, but according to the Ontario Wheat Producers' Marketing Board a new pricing system has been devised which may offset the decrease. The announcement was made following a third meeting of negotiators representing the marketing board, dealers and processors held on Thursday, June 25, in Toronto, at which time all issues in the 1970 marketing agreement were settled. Mr. M. R. McDougall, RR 2 Blenheim, chairman of the Ontario Wheat Producers' Marketing Board, said the major issue in negotiations was price. In explaining the outcome, Mr. McDougall said two main factors contributed to the lower price to producers. One involved existing low export price, coupled with freeing of the Canadian dollar which automatically reduced the export price. The other, he said, involved the necessity for the marketing board to be sufficiently financed to purchase and sell an estimated three to four million bushels of excess production. He pointed out that the board negotiators entered negotiations under extremely difficult circumstances because of these factors, and rather than see the price to producers drop with no possibility of recovery of the loss, a new pricing system was developed. "We felt our first responsibility to producers was to keep the price up at the minimum $1.82 per bushel level for the 8 to 9 million bushels used by domestic millers and cereal manufacturers". At the same time he added, "we had to fulfil our financial responsibilities not only to producers but to our creditors who supply the necessary loans required for the board to purchase the excess production and sell it in lower priced export markets. Mr. McDougall said that through co-operation of provincial and federal government authorities and representatives of the trade, "we were able to obtain agreement on a pricing system which should return the best price out of all markets to producers". The board chairman explained the system as follows: 1. The minimum basic price paid by dealers to producers will be $1.70 per bushel for grade No. 2 or better, 14% moisture, delivered. 2. The dealers will deduct 17c per bushel from the basic price paid to producers and forward it to the marketing board (1c licence fee and 16c stabilization levy). 3. A new levy has been established this year whereby dealers must pay the board 12c for each bushel they buy from producers. The 12c levy will be forwarded to the marketing board. 4. When the dealers sell wheat to processors, they will sell at 12c per bushel higher than the basic $1.70 to recover the 12c levy WINDROWERS 2 — International 175 10-foot with hay conditioner International 201 10-foot BALERS' International 45 Baler International No. 27 Baler.
