25 In Memoriam'
RINTOUL—In loving memory of a
dear mother and grandmother,
Margaret "Reta", who passed
away December 3, 1975.
God looked around His garden,
He found an empty space,
He then looked down upon this
earth,
And saw your tired face.
He put His arms around you,
And lifted you to rest,
God's garden must be beautiful,
He only takes the best.
He knew that you were suffering,
He knew you were in pain,
He knew that you would never,
Get well upon this earth again.
He saw the road was getting
rough,
And the hills were hard to climb,
So He closed your weary eyelids,
And whispered "Peace be
thine".
It broke our hearts to lose you,
But you did not go alone,
For part of us went with you,
The day God called you home.
—Always remembered by
daughters, Helen and Wanda,
Son-in-laws, Douglas and William
and grandchildren. 25-09-1

Area corn, growers agreed
Thursday night that the Ontario
Federation of Agriculture should
continue research that may lead
to the formation of a corn
producers marketing board. But
they were adamant that such a
board should have no control over
pricing, and that memAership in
it should be voluntary.
The growers met in Clinton
with John Oke, a member of the
OFA's grain committee, to
discuss a proposal which will be
tabled at the OFA's annual
meeting in Toronto this week.
Mr. Oke assured the 40 corn
growers present that the OFA
proposes only a negotiating board
with what it terms "low level
functions" rather than an agency
type board with buying, selling
and pricing powers. Since some
40 percent of the corn grown in
the province is used for feed, an
agency board would not work for
corn, the OFA propoSal stresses.
Seven points are outlined in the
proposal, which Mr. Oke offered
to the corn growers for comment.
The proposed board's first
function would be to act as a
spokeman for corn growers,
informing the public and
producers of developments in
corn production. "Corn growers
today really have no one to
represent them" Mr. Oke said.
There are currently 11 men on the
governments grain council, but
only three of them are farmers, he
noted. United through a board,
corn growers 'could lobby for
terminal storage needs,
transportation subsidies, to riff
and trade equity; rand research
into cheaper drying methods, the
OFA feels.
The boards second function
would be to negotiate and
administer advance 'phyments.
Producers organizations handle
advance payments for other
crops, and the OFA says corn
growers could become ineligible
for such payments without a
board, to negotiate and administer
the plan,
The proposed board would also
be charged with the responsibility
of negotiating stabilizat ion
payments.- for corn. At present
"wer re left at the mercy of the
government to stabilize as they
see fit, with no input from
producers whatsoever" Mr. Oke
said.
Handling and drying charges,
which Mr. Oke termed a "hot
subject" among corn growers,
would also be negotiated 'by the
board. Main area of contention
for corn growers is moisture
content. Currently, there are "no
regulations on moisture content
testing", Mr. Oke said, and some
elevators have been using
moisture charts from the U.S.
which are not appropriate , for
Ontario corn. It is also felt by
some that drying and handling
charges are excessive, and the
OFA proposes negotiating a
maximum charge each year, as
protection for growers.
A fifth function of the board
would be to negotiate payments
for premium grades of corn.
"Corn with as much as 40 or 50
percent moisture is going into
some elevators" Mr. Oke said,
"but those who bring in low
moisture corn get no bonus on
it". Extra money for premium
grades often goes to the elevator
rather than the producer, the
OFA maintains.
The OFA also sees a corn
marketing board supplying trade
information which would aid
producers in selling their crop at
the best time, and working to
promote export opportunities.
Discussion at the meeting often
dealt with specific points of
interest to individual farmers, but
Huron F of A president Alan
Walper stressed that the growers
were being asked only if they
were 'in favour of some kind of
group to act as spokesman, and
that details would be worked out
at future meetings,
Mr. Oke said before the board
could be formed, a proposal
would have to be put before the
federal Farm. Products Marketing
Board, and a plebiscite held. The
signatures of 2,200 corn
producers would be needed
before the Board would allow a
plebiscite on the matter, Mr. Oke
said, a process which could take
two Years.
Huron F of A .vice president
Merle Gunby, responding to the
obvious reluctance of some of
those present to commit
themselves to endorsing the OFA
proposal, said "farmers would be
silly not to look into it a little
further. It can't do us anything
but good." He pointed out that
there would be time in the future
to decide if producers really want
a corn board and to work out
details of the powers it would
have.
A show of hands indicated that
the majority of the growers on
hand agreed with Mr. Gunby, and
the OFA was given the Huron F of
A's approval to continue studying
the matter.
