SHUR•GAIN Want loan changes NFU asks to diversify crops Local 317 of the National Farmers Union held a very in- teresting meeting at Zurich Wednesday where several Ira- portant things relating to far- mers were discussed, A good discussion on the re- establishment of the sugar beet industry was held with a good attendance interested in the beet industry. It was stressed that the more farmers can diversify crop patterns,the better it would be for all farmers in South Western Ontario and the rest of Ontario for that matter. An example being the drop in white bean prices as a result of higher acreages grown in 1972. So if we could get 40,000 acres of land into sugar beets we most certainly would strengthen or help to strengthen other crops By MISS JEAN COPELAND Mr. & Mrs. Bev Westman, Granton and Janet Westman, London visited on Saturday evening with Mr. & Mrs. Glenn Copeland, Cynthia, Ellen and Deanna. Mr. & Mrs. Norris Webb, Julie and Lorie visited with Mr. & Mrs. Ralph Wareham, Jeffrey and Suzanne Wingham on Sunday.

Intended for last week UCW Almost 50 members and friends of the United Church Women enjoyed a smorgasbord supper at their January meeting. After supper Mrs. Lloyd Cowdrey led in a sing-song. Mrs. Nelson Baker opened the worship service with quiet music Mrs. La Verne Rodd read the call to worship and led in prayer. The scripture was read by Mrs. Marvin Hartwick and Mrs. Rodd gave a reading. Mrs. Wm.Dickey, Mrs. Lloyd Cowdrey, Mrs. Norman Johns, Mrs. Leonard Thacker and Mrs. Jas. Miller took part in a reading on New Years, Old Familiar hymns were intermingled with the readings. The president, Mrs. Jas Miller, conducted the business. Diocese of Fredericton, read the two lessons. Miss Joan Cun- ningham presided at the organ. Host Euchre The winners were as follows: ladies high, Hazel Williams; ladies lone hand, Gladys Boyle; ladies low, Olga Bond; mens high, Otto Darling; mens lone, Jim Scott; runners up, Harry Hardy; lone hand, Clarence Carter; runner up, Frank Hardy where the 40,004 acres was used before, The cards president Lloyd Willert brought along from Chatham vanished quickly further indicating a good response. The sugar beet com- mittee at Chatham will meet with the Minister of Agriculture and the Agriculture committee at Ottawa soon after the first of February with the results of the survey cards and acreage in- dication, to further push the case. We hope it will go all the way, for Canadians could some day face a sugar shortage brought on by internal strife in any of the so called underdeveloped countries. Furthermore as Mr. Whelan emphasized at Chatham (I personally agree) we should have never let the industry slip out of our hands back in 1968, Mr, Whelan also said the government of Canada will continue the two price wheat system, perhaps on a little dif- ferent scale than in 1972, This has always been N.F.U. policy, that the smaller producers receive a incentive to produce a certain amount of produce, in this case wheat and get paid a guaranteed wage for it so to speak, and anyone who wants to produce more can go ahead and produce all he wants, to take his chances on theworld market the same as before. Crop Insurance was also discussed as questioned at the N.F.U. convention. Mr. Whelan said he was proposing changes which bring the federal govern- ment to pay 50 percent of crop insurance premiums. He also said this didn't appeal to him as a farmer because it didn't pay for losses incurred or the crop remaining in the field By MRS.

He said if your garage burns down you don't base your claim on the buildings you have left but the garage that burned down. He gave this as the main reason more farmers in the disaster areas are not covered, He also threw out an idea proposed in the N.F.U. Collective Bargaining Legislation which recommends a disaster fund, financed by a check off on farm products from coast to coast. The following resolution as passed at the N.F.U, convention was discussed; Be it resolved that the N.F.U. request the Farm Credit Cor- poration to use as security only the land that is being bought, and that no additional land be required as security and also as the loan is diminished portions of the land used as security be released. This is one of the major issues facing many a young fellow trying to buy a farm, or ad- ditional land, Anyone seeing the Roy Jewell and Country Canada farm shows this past Sunday saw a good explanation of this problem. The chap on the Roy Jewell show readily admitted that unless a young fellow has a father or relative with some backing he hasn't much chance of making it on the farm. Man at door: "I'm asking for donations for the new children's home we're building. I hope you'll give what you can." Tired-looking mother; "Fine. I'll give you two boys, two girls or one of each."
