Quotes Mark MacAuley
This same farm paper "Farm and Coun-
try, Tuesday February 24, 1987" on page 44
carries a quote from'Mark MacAuley of the
Second Concession in Huron Township in
Bruce County here. As the piece reads, the
Ontario Sheep Marketing Agency raised the
check off to one and a half per cent from one
per cent at January 1st and Mark gave his
reason for objecting.
