Mason Bailey of Blyth, pres- ident of the Huron Federation of Agriculture made the observation while reporting on the direCtors meeting of the Ontario Fed- eration of Agriculture at which John Cunningham of Bell said that because Bell had been grant- ed only a five per cent increase it would be very limited in its building program in the next five years. Mr. Bailey termed it itbad news" for the people of north HUron. The Federation had begun a fight last summer to have toll- free calling areas in the northern part of the county enlarged. Pet- itions were circulated and found heavy SUpport among the res- idents of the area. The Fed- eraton went on to negotiate with Bell after receiving support of the councils of all .municipalit- lea involved. The refusal of the increase Bell asked for, however, may have delayed the enlarging of toll areas longer, according to Mr. Bailey. Mr. Bailey also reported that Membership in the OFA was now F of A membership up charged from some banks for automatically renewing OFA memberships. The rate varies from nothing to two dollars across the province. The reso- lution was passed but it was pointed out that there was little that could be done since indivi- dual bank managers set the pol- icy for their branches. A second resolution regarding the setting up of more overseas trade missions to sell Ontario produce was also passed. It 'went over big' according to Mr. Bailey. The third asking for abol- ition of different fuel pricing zone also passed although it was felt that nothing could be done to stop the practice except. make a big noise. Two new resolutions, moved by Adrian Vos of Blyth, were passed at the meeting Thursday. The first called on the OFA to continue to press the provin- cial government to put a halt to vertical integration and to cur- tail livestock contracts while at the same time requesting fin- ancing to help replace that now given by nen-farm interests. The second resolution call- Id on the Ontario Municipal Board co, in effect, reverse the sugg- ested code of practice which now applies to farms. The code pro- hibits neW livestock buildings be- ing built within 2000 feet of a residence. The resolution would prohibit a municipality from zon- ing an area residential which was within 2000 feet of an establish- ed farming operation. Mr. Vos explained that a house can now be built near a farm which means the farmer is prohibited from expanding, because he is not allowed to build. He felt this was unfair. Secretary-fieldman Bill Cr- awford reported on a blitz of Morris township carried out last month which gained 13 new members. tHE BRusses POST, JULY 19, 1972-5 over 11,000 with over 20 percent of the members in Huron and Perth couties.
