Centralia plans
short courses
Ontario farmers don't have
to get the 'short end' when it
comes to knowing the latest
production techniques. They
can attend short courses at
the Centralia College of
Agricultural Technology.
Fifteen agricultural short
courses will be offered at the
college in early 1979, says
Doug Jamieson, short course
coordinator. All but three are
one day long.
"We hope that a farmer
might learn enough in the
one day to pay for his day
away from the farm, the cost
of the course, and even his
gas."
The short courses,
scheduled from January until
April, cost $4.00 per day.
They are aimed at profes-
sional farmers, farm em-
ployees,• and novice farm-
ers. Instructors will come
from agricultural colleges,
government, and farm-re-
lated industries.
Courses will cover four
main subject areas-livestock,
,farm management, engine-
ering, and soils and crops.
Seven of the 15 courses are
new, says Mr. Jamieson.
New topics include white
beans, seed production,
transferring farm assets,
basicd pork production, and
alternative energy sources
for farms.
Sortie of last year's of-
ferings will be back again-
farm income tax, sow herd
management, beef feedlot
management, and cutting
farm energy costs.
To register, farmers
should contact county offices
of the Ministry of Agriculture
and Food, or Mr. D. Jamie-
son at Centralia College of
Agricultural Technology,
Huron Park, Ontario NOM
1YO. His telephone number
is (519) 228-6691.
"Last year, 463 people
attended our short courses;
more than half had not taken
a course previously at
Central ia. We expect about
550 this year.
"People from as far away
as Peterborough have at-
tended, so we draw from the ,
whole farming population of
southern Ontario."
The Employment Tax
Credit Program was
introduced by the Govern-
ment of Canada to stim-
ulate employment in the
private sector.
In essence, we're encour-
aging you to expand your
work force by providing a
tax break for your business.
The potential annual
tax credit for each new em7
ployee is over $3,000. And
there is no limit to the
number of new employees
you can hire.
Now, by using the expe-
rience we've gained so far,
we've changed the program
to make it even more
attractive.
Up to 33 fro more tax credit.
The maximum term for
the tax credit has been
increased from nine to 12
months for each new
employee.That means up to
331/2 % more tax credit.
Greater eligibility.
We have expanded the
number and types of busi-
nesses eligible to benefit.
Now almost every business
that's been operating in
Canada for a year or more
join •. • can in.
Wider choice of new employees.
Now, almost anyone
who's unemployed and regis-
tered at a Canada Employ-
ment Centre for a minimum
of two weeks is eligible.
A minimum of red tape.
We've simplified the
procedure, so you can do the
whole thing, from begin-
ning to end, with just two
single-page forms.
For full details on the
program, contact any
Canada Employment Centre/
Canada Manpower Centre.
