Ontario wheat. producers buy
five million bushels crop
BRADY -
Duff's United Church,
Walton was the setting for the
marriage of Mary Elizabeth
Leeming of Toronto, daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Leeming,
Walton and David Carl Brady,
Seaforth, son of Dr. and Mrs.
P. L. Brady, Seaforth on August
26, 1972 at 4 P.M. with Rev.
Docken performing the double-
ring ceremony.
The church was decorated
with gold candelabrae of white
and yellow shastas, mauve poms
and pale pink carnations with
yellow, mauve, pink and blue
streamers.
Given in marriage by her
father, the bride wore an elegant
gown of white crepe in a grace-
ful empire line. Venise lace
(rain dropped patterned) shaped
the high neckline, long fitted
sleeves and hem. Tiny buttons
trail down to a cathedral train
that comes away. The gown was
complemented by a fingertip-
length veil (silk illusion veil)
trimmed in matching lace and set
on a dutch-cap headpiece. She
carried a bouquet of yellow
sweetheart roses, white shastas
and white stephanotis.
Wheat
cheques
in mail
Agriculture Minister H. A.
(Bud) Olson has announced that
approximately 11,000 wheat
producers in eastern Canada will
receive cheques within a few days
to cover their benefits under the
federal government's two-price
wheat payment policy, which was
announced January 22, 1972
by the Hon. Otto Lang.
The total payment will exceed
$5,000,000, with individual pay-
ments averaging $350 and ranging
to a maximum of $522.50 per
producer.
The two-price system is
designed to return additional in-
come to wheat producers for the
domestically-consumed portion
of their crop and should add
significantly to the economy of
the rural communities involved.
Payments to those who made
application prior to June 30 are
being mailed to Ontario wheat
producers this week. Pay-
rnents to Quebec,Nova Scotia
and Prince Edwar Island wheat
produders will be mailed next
week.
Applications received after
June 30 and until. September 30
will be processed as quickly as
possible.

The Ontario Wheat Prep
ducers' Market, ing lioard has. re-
leased fignres indicating it has
purchased nearly five million
bushels of 1972 crop wheat to
date.
Marketing board chairman,
William Brander, R.R.8, Miss-
issauga, said following a board
meeting held in.Tpronto Tues-
day, august 29th, the figure re-
presents a volume of about 1.4
million bushels greater than that
purchased by the board one year
ago.
Reflecting extremely poor
harvest weather in Central and
The federal government
offered a $400 cash grant to the
approximately 22,500 farmers in
wet-damaged areas in Ontario
and. Quebec.
The federal cash grant, which
is expected to total $9,000,000,
rounds out the assistance pro-
grams which are being developed
jointly with the provincial mini-
sters of agriculture," Agricul-
ture Minister H,A.(I3ud) Olson
said.
All qualifying farmers within
designated areas of Ontario and
Quebec will be eligible to receive
the $400 cash grant.
A minimum acreage or
number of livestock may be
attached as a condition to rule
out urban people who have homes
in rural areas and whose land is
classified as a farm only for
census purposes.
In Ontario, the area will pro-
bably include the counties of
Prescott,' Stormont, Russell,,
Glengarry, Dundas, Carleton and
Grenville. Certain areas of Nipi-
ssing, Sudbury and Parry Sound
may be added when a fuller asses-
sment of losses caused by recent
heavy rains can be completed.
"Taken as a total package,
the federal and provincial assis-
tance programs amount 'to one of
the most substantial aid packages
ever offered to farmers suffering
crop losses due to wet weather,"
Mr. Olson said.
The aid programs are de-
signed to help farmers who have
suffered substantial losses due
to wet summorweather and to
maintain the livestock population
within the affected area.
"Both farmers and con-
sumers will benefit from the aid
which will have the effect of
stabilizing production and prices
for such products as milk, beef
and dairy products," Mr. Olson'
said.
"I cannot accept the views put
forward by some of the more
shrill critics who claim the aid
programs offered are paltry in
comparison to the difficulties the
farmers face.
"In actual fact, the package of
Eastern areas of the province R
the board haS been reqUired to-
purchase 334,000 bushels of low
grade sprouted wheat to date.
With harvest Still to be com-
pleted in Eastern Ontario, the
sprouted volume of wheat off-
ered to the board may increase,
Mr. Brander said sales of
board owned stocks to date
amount to 902,000 bushels, leav-,
ing a net balance of 4,025,000
bushels on hand. The sales have
all been made to overseas mar-
kets.
The board chairman also ad-
vised that some difficulty ,has
occurred in forward movement of
programs covers every type of
difficulty faced by the many dif-
ferent types of farm 'operations in
the wet-damaged areas, and will
total at least several thousands of
dollars for the average farmer,"
Mr. Olson said.
Officials from the three de-
partments of, agriculture have
met to discuss administrative de-
tails of the assistance programs,
such as transportation rates for
hay and silage and terms for
granting guarantees for loans.
board stocks into the St. Law-
rence terminal storage elevator
system because of facilities he-
big under pressure from
unusually high volumes of west-
ern grain moving east.
Mr. Brander said, however,
that Stocks have been moved to.
Buie Comeau and port Cartier
to meet outstanding export
commitments. Other stocks are
located at Montreal, King-
ston, Port Stanley, Walkerville,
Wallaceburg, Sarnia and Goder-
ich.
Of further concern to the
marketing board directors,
according to Mr. Brander, are
the stocks of sprouted wheat own-
ed by the board which are of
feed quality.
Mr. Brander said the board
is hopeful these stocks and poss-
ible additional purchases of
sprouted wheat will move into
feed markets inQuebec, the Mar-
itimes or export markets.
In this regard, the board plans
to meet with representatives of
the Canadian Livestock. Feed
Board in the near future to ini-
tiate discussions on the feed
market requirements in Quebec
and the Maritimes and the pot-
ential for utilization of Ontario
wheat.
Feed freight assistance which
applies to western feed grains
moving to Eastern Canada areas
does not apply to Ontario wheat
at present and this aspect will
also be discussed with the Can-
adian Livestock Feed Board, ac-
cording to Mr. Brander.
