"Ontario treasurer John
White's budget contained some
good news for farmers " says.
Gordon Hill, President, Ontario
Federation of Agriculture.
"Increasing the property
reduction to 50 per cent, from
today's 25 percent rate, will ease
the heavy tax burden on farmers.
It is a progressive move, and we
hope the government takes
another one by finding a less
cumbersome way of ad-
ministering the rebate than by
mailing a cheque to each farmer
in the province."
Hill endorses the tax-free gift of
up to $50,000 that farmers will be
able to give once during their
lifetimes, and the abolition of
succession duties on farms
transferred within the family.
"These tax breaks, coupled with
Finance Minister John Turner's
promise to postpone capital gains
tax as long as the farm is worked
by the immediate family, will
make it easier to pass farms from
father to son.
"Farmers, through their
Federation, have been working
for these changes for a long time.
Hill adds, "The way to keep
young people in farming is
through increased income. Tax
measures are important, but
young men will not stay on the
farm if their farm income is not
comparable to what they would
earn in other occupations."
Although Hill says that farmers
are pleased with many aspects of
the budget, they are concerned
over the seven per cent sales tax
on energy. "This will increase the
cost of hydro, propane, gasoline,
and diesel fuel used in crop
production, and push operating
costs up.
"This is an invasion into a new
tax field, In the past, food
production has been tax-exempt
Farmers fear this is the thin edge
of the wedge."

A concerted effort to rid pork of
its old "fat" image has been
undertaken this week by the
Ontario Pork Marketing Board.
Mailings have gone out to some
27,000 pork producers in the
province with information,
backed by medical opinion, on
the nutritive value of the new,
leaner pork products.
Each producer, in turn, is
asked to take the "Medi-kit"
personally to his own family
doctor,
In addition, the kits are being
sent to medical associations.
The message involved is that
"today's lean pork offers more
protein, vitamins and minerals
per serving but has 36 per cent
less fat than a few years ago.
This type of mass promotion
initiated by the Ontario Pork
the sermon, based on "Christ the
King rides into the City", the
Eldership extended the right,
hand of fellowship to each can-
didate. In both churches there
was a record company of people
and in both places the event
proved quite impressive.

Producers is thought to be un-
precedented. Its proponents hope
that the same idea will be picked
up by other provincial marketing
boards and by American pork
producers.
Included is a pamphlet "The
saturated versus unsaturated fat
controversy", prepared by
George V, Mann, department of
biochemistry, Vanderbilt
University School of Medicine,
Nashville, for presentation to the
U,S. Senate select committee on
food, nutrition and health. Dr.
Mann, Career Investigator of the
National Heart and Lung
Institutes of Health, in rebutting
the role that some scientists
attributed to animal foods in
coronary heart disease points to
lack of scientific evidence for
their viewpoints.
In his treatise Dr. Mann
referred to the Framington Heart
Program which began in 1948 in a
community near Boston. The
study followed 5,000 citizens for
20 years and could find no
relationship between diet and
either cholesteremia or coronary
heart disease.
"Careful dietary histories in a
thousand of the subjects showed
no relationship between dietary
habits and health," the pamphlet
states.
Another folder included in the
kit, "Pork in the diet" is the
reprint of a speech given by Dr.
Philip L. White, secretary,
council on foods and nutrition,
American Medical Association to
the annual meeting of the
American Meat Institute.
In that speech Dr. White em-
phasized the nutritional values of
pork, which, he claims, is the
most nutritious of all meats,
Two recent innovations which,
he said, further enhance the
value and utility of pork are the
development of the meat-type
hog, lean meat not heavily laden
with fat and easily trimmed of
surface fat, and the development
of better cooking methods of pork
products.
In addition to the Medi-kit each
producer is supplied with a
wallet-size card for his own use.
It backs up the board's 1973
theme "Pork for nutrition" with
figures. Comparing pork, beef
and lamb, 100 gram portions
show pork with the fewest
calories, the lowest percentage of
fat and protein content higher
than beef and equal to lamb.
