WORKMEN'S COMPENSATION 4Dis4ou khow that all agricultural employees must be covered under law, by Werkmen!s Compensation? This is anyone .who works on the farm, full or part-tiine, in return for a wage, The farmer himself is not required to ,cover himself for Workmen's Compensation benefit but it is' readily available ,to him upon request. Thelarrner's wife is not -automatically covered either, even if she drives a tractor or operates machinery, because she is considered a partner in the farm. , She can apply for personal cover- age in the' same way as the farmer, unless she is placed on the payroll• and considered an employee. Farmers children are not covered unless they are working for wages. Board and lodging , cannot be counted 'as part of wages -if the children are of school age. Allowances do not count either. Customer operators, using -their own .machinery or equipment, are responsible for their own Work- men's Compensation coverage. How can a farmer of today afford to be out of commission because of an accident? Your family depends upon you for .too much to take chances.,,Why not find out more by contacting the Kitchener-Waterloo office of the Workmen's Compen- sation Board, '151 Frederick Street, Kitchener, N21-1 ,2M2 or your, local Farm Safety Representative. Remember, the, life you save by working safely, may be your own. RANDY WELICK, Extension Assistant. BIOLOGICAL _NITROGEN SOURCE Legume inoculants have long been available for treating seed or soil at planting time, but there full potential has not been. 'realized, says C. D. Crober, ,a Fertilizer Specialist with Agriculture Canada Plant Productions Division. Inoculants costing less than , $1.00 can fix 200 lbs. of Nitrogen in an acre of alfalfa. The same amount of Nitrogen fertilizer costs about $40.00. The bacteria are tiny fertilizer, factories replacing the energy from natural gas now used in Nitrogen fertilizer production. However, even the best inoculants become ineffective if not handled, 'tored and applied properly.

HURON-BRUCE , There has been a great deal of .concern expressed by municipalit- ies and farmers alike 'about the cutback in the tile drainage loans. Accordingly, the Government bas,announced that it is increasing the' funds allocated to the drainage program by 3.8 million, This will bring the - total involvement this fiscal year to 16.8 million. • Under this program the Province through debenture arrangements with local municipalities, assists the individual farmer to 'drain his land and thus improve his product- ivity and income. The program provides farmers with ten year loans for up to 75% of , the cost of installing drainage tile. The farmer pays 6% interest on this loan and the Province makes up the difference between the 6% and the market rate; which varies from time to time. More than 40- million is out' in ten-year loans at this time. The Minister of Community and Social Services, Jaines Taylor, announced this week that the total number of employables on General Welfare Assistance had dropped 26% in the first four months of this year. The total caseload has declined by 10.6% as of April.1976 over the previous year. . "If one compares the drop in employables with the decline in total caseload, it is apparent that the employables have been declin- ing at over double the rate of the caseload reduction," according to the MiniSter. The Minister, attributes these results' to the Government's re- Straint program and the general crackdown on welfare abuse. The Ontario Government , 'is asking the Ontario Court of Appeal to expediate its planned appeal of a Divisional Court decision that , is keeping five hospitals open. Counsel for the Government expect the. Court of Appeal to grant leave for the appeal next week, and a date for a hearing • may be set at that time. It now appears -that the N.D.P. and Liberals Will vote against the Farm Income Stabiliiation . Act introduced by the Government on the basis of the fact that it is totally inadequate and will basically do nothing to stabilize farm income, because any pay out would only occur if the average yearly price fell below the last five-year average: This wilt not cause an election, because the Premier has indicated it will not be a matter of confidence.
