September 17, Paso 1$ 14 Sons ESSO HOME HEAT SERVICE RR 2 DASH WOOD 238-2649 under the Federal-Provincial Rural Development Agreement, the two levels of government joined together to encourage the acquisition of submarginal agricultural lands in Ontario for conversion to forestry and other related uses. Since that project was initiated, some 34,000 acres of these unproductive soils have been acquired by the counties and by conservation authorities in Ontario and converted into reforested areas under the management agreements with the Ontario Department of Lands and Forests. The new Federal-Provincial Rural Development Agreement (1970-75) also places emphasis on this reforestation aspect of land use in Ontario, and the Ontario ARDA administration has been authorized to continue to assist these public agencies in the acquisition of submarginal lands for reforestation purposes. Under the extension announced today, the program will run for three more years, terminating on March 31, 1974, and will provide for maximum investments of $160,000 annually for each of the three years. Three-quarters of this land purchase cost will be met by ARDA, and shared equally by the federal and provincial governments. Specifically, the retirement of submarginal agricultural lands into forestry and related uses serves several purposes; (a) It will provide an alternative and productive use for land classified as marginal for agricultural purposes by the Canada Land Inventory. (b) It will, in the future, ensure a supply of high quality raw material for wood-using industries which provide employment for rural people. (c) It will help to develop and conserve water, wildlife, and scenic resources which are essential for the maintenance and growth of the tourist and public recreation industry. The announcement of the continuation of this federal-provincial shared-cost program was made jointly by Hon. Wm. A. Stewart, Ontario's Minister of Agriculture and Food, and Hon. Jean Marchand, Federal Minister of Regional Economic Expansion. Mr.. Stewart elaborated on the importance of the program as follows: "In the interests of soil and water conservation, submarginal lands should be returned to forest cover. Our county forests committees and our conservation authoriities have demonstrated clearly the wisdom of such an approach to resource management. Hundreds of thousands of Ontario residents are now enjoying the parks and recreational facilities that have been developed in a relatively short period of time by our conservation authorities. By continuing this important reforestation program under the new ARDA agreement we are making a further investment in renewable resources for the future."
