Your public library now offers
a lot more than ooks
With Ontario's
public lil*ary network,
you get a complete
information centre.
Your local public library is much more
than a source of books for pleasure
reading and study. It is part of an
Ontario -wide network of fourteen
library systems which cooperate and .
share their resources. Because of this,
many libraries now offer important
additional services, such as:
1. Films, records and video cassettes;
2. Special programs such as story
hours, speakers, demonstrations
. and exhibits;
3. Books in many different
/ languages;
4. Reference -information services;
5. Books by mail for shut-ins, and
people in isolated areas;
6, Large print and talking books for
the handicapped;
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
7. Interlibrary loan services to help
you get the book you want,
wherever it is;
8. Newspapers, magazines and.
government information
publications.
There's something special for everyone
of all ages. Make it a point to visit your
local public library soon.

Reuben Baett,
Minister of Culture
and Recreation
William Davis, Premier
Province of Ontario
Mr. Lantz said 20 years
ago, 100 bushel corn clubs
were the objective when
yields were only half that
figure. •
He , said. wheat
production, milk
production and livestock
production hasalso in-
creased dramatically.
The deputy minister
said one of the "real
vehicles by which we ,
have been able to in-
crease production” is
drainage.
Mr. Lantz said in 1961,
$1.3 million in debenture
money was used for
drainage by 1971 the
figure was $5.8 million
and in 1977 it was $20
million.
The deputy minister
said tile drainage has a
stabilizing influence in
removing the hills and
valleys of production due,
to weather conditions.
The deputy minister
said' another stabilizing
influence was crop in-
surance. In 1966, Mr.
Lantz said 404 policies
were issued for the fall
wheat crop, while this
year, over 27,000 in-
surance contracts will be
signed, covering 30 crops.
Mr. Lantz also credited
the influence of
marketing boards as a
third stabilizing influence
on agriculture.
The deputy minister
concluded by saying
there's still room for
further innovation in
agriculture.
He added it's en-
couraging to see more
young people returning to
the farm today.
He said 25 percent of
Ontario agriculture
college graduates are
returning to the farm and
about 50 percent of the
diploma course
graduates from
agriculture programs in
community colleges.
Mr. Lantz said this just
didn't happen a few years
ago.
