Planning for the day you retire or buy your first home means
having a master plan for your investment in the future. So
we have two plans to help. A Retirement Savings Plan, and a
Home Ownership Savings Plan. They both earn you valuable
tax savings, and when you subscribe to either one, or both plans
your contributions can be applied to any one, or a combination
of these investment vehicles:
1. Royal Bank RSP and HOSP
Deposits. Interest-bearing deposits
with The Royal Bank of Canada,
offering a high interest return,
geared to the general deposit rate
structure. Because of the long-
term nature of these deposits, it
is possible to pay a higher rate of
interest than on conventional
savings deposits.
2. Income Fund. High-yield bonds,
deposit instruments and mortgages
insured under the National Housing.
Act make up this portfolio which is
actively managed by professionals.
The policy is to achieve as high a
current income as is compatible
with maintaining reasonable price
stability as well as moderate capital
appreciation.
3. Equity Fund. Investment mainly
in Canadian common stock port-
folio which is actively managed by
the same professionals. Long-term
capital growth with reasonable
current income is the objective of
this fund.
It's all in how you plan your strategy.
Your Royal Bank manager can
help you work out a master plan.

your move.

If you were among those
shocked by a whopping big bill
from the Exeter PUC in
HEADING NORTH — Fourteen oil tankers, accompanied by four OPP cruisers, made their way along
Highway 4 through Exeter Wednesday morning on their way to the Goderich and Kincardine area. Centres
in North Huron and Bruce have been short of fuel oil due to the blocked roads and the convoy hoped to
relieve that situation. T-A photo
Hydro bills atrocious
size of their bill.
At the Commission's meeting
on Thursday, the word
"atrocious" was used by
manager Hugh Davis in describ-
ing the December bill for power
purchased from Ontario Hydro.
He said the December hydro
cost to the PUC in December of
1976 was $44,000, compared to
$30,000 for the same month in
1975.
Davis said the high bills place
the PUC in some financial
problems, because the revenue
does not come in until the follow-
ing months, of January and
February.
In a brief statement on opening
the first full Commission
meeting of the year, chairman
Murray Greene said that the
theme for the next two years
would have to be the same as last
year: the conservation of hydro.
He said people would have to
get into the habit of turning off
lights that were not in use as well
as wearing more sweaters' so
they can keep their heat down.
"If we don't, by the 1980's we'll
have problems, and I would hate
to see that," he concluded.
January, you may take some
consolation from the fact the
PUC were also shocked at the
A 69-per-cent increase in
winter wheat production in the
period 1973 to 1976 in Ontario was
confirmed by the Ontario Wheat
Producers' Marketing Board.
According to the board's
general manager, Ross
Addeman, production in Ontario
in 1973 was 14.8 million bushels.
Last year production soared to
more than 25 million bushels.
"Estimates of seeded acreage
last fall indicate a possible
further increase in production
for the 1977 harvest of up to 20
per cent," Mr. Addeman said.
Provincially the crop has a
farm value of more than $75
million annually.
In Kent County production last
year was 3.392 million bushels
worth $12.330 million; in Essex
4.148 million bushels, $15,078
million; and in Lambton County,
2.398 million bushels, $8.718
million,
Ontario Winter Wheat is a soft
white variety used mainly for
cake and pastry flour and
cereals.

the Ontario Wheat Producers'

"Understanding the regulations
