BELGRAVE C0-OPERATIVE BELGRAVE, ONT. PHONE: W1NGHAM 357-2711 BRUSSELS 388W10 BY MURRAY GAUNT, M.P.P. Huron-Bruce The agricultural estimates were before the House this week. Speaking for our Party, I pointed out that Ontario has no long term plan to cope, even in a small way, with inadequate farm incomes. The lack of long term policy is the cause of most of our urgent problems and the reason we are in the posi- tion we are today in agriculture. The Minister of Agriculture, William Stewart, announced plans for an exhaustive examin- ation of Ontario's farm and food industry that will cover everything from productivity to prices. The Conference will beheld October 25 to 28 this year at Vineland. I suggested that a number of programs be under- taken to aid agriculture and re- lieve some of the pressures that have been building up these past few years. These steps were as follows: FLY KILLER Push-button aerosol spray—controls flying and crawling insects in the home, chase of milk cooler. 5. Forgive one-third of ev- ery Junior Farmer loan to a maximum of $3, 000. if the borrower has kept up, within reasin, his interest and princi- pal payments for ten years pro- vided he is a full-time fanner. 6. Reduce the interest on Junior Farmer loans from 5% to 3%, 7. Provide payment of a dir- ect grant of 200/0 of the purchase price of commercial fertilizers up to a maximum of $75.00 per farmer per year. 8. A five-year plan for rural development to ensure that ag- riculture will enter a new era of progressive development, ac- companied by a program of sound and cultural enrichment. Lanark County Appointment Everett Biggs, Deputy Min- ister of Agriculture, announced Wednesday that Malcom R. Bol- ton, associate agricultural re- presentative in York County, has been promoted to agricul- tural representative and will be stationed in Lanark County. He will assume his duties Septem- ber 1. Born in Huron County, Mr. Bolton graduated from Seaforth District High School and gradu- ated from the Ontario Agricul- tural College in 1958. He join- ed the department in that year as an assistant agricultural rep- resentative in Grey County. He was promoted to associate rep- resentative in 1961, transferr- ing to York County in 1964. Teacher Suggests Youth Choir as Centennial Project Bob Fotheringham presided for the Huron County Junior Farmers meeting in the agricul- tural board room at Clinton on Wednesday of last week. Jo- Anne Alton filled in for Grace Campbell as secretary and Don Pullen gave the treasurer's re- port. JoAnne Alton gave a report on the Essex County exchange trip for the July 15 to 17 week- end and all Juniors were en- couraged to attend. Welland County has invited the Huron organization to their part of Ontario August 13 and 14. Don Pullen introduced Geo. Cull, a Clinton high school teacher, who suggested that the county choir become active as a centennial project as the Centennial Youth Choir, en- couraging young people up to 30 years to join in the project. Bill Campbell gave a report on field day, a successful event and Don McKercher gave the highlights of the Guelph Field Day scheduled for July 9. Shir- ley Jacques was commended for the excellent edition of the Newsletter. The word "silviculture" means the raising or tending of forest trees and forest crops. It is a broad term including many things. Its aims generally are to regenerate the forest, keep it growing in healthy and rapid fashion so that finally, valua- ble products may be obtained from it. Effective July 1, the price paid by dairies to Ontario far- mers for each 100 pounds of milk used for fresh milk sales has been increased by 46 cents, This means that the dairy farm- er will be receiving about 1.20 more for each quart of milk that he sells. In Southern Ontario the price paid for "dairy require- ment" milk will be $5.75 per cwt„ testing 3.4% milkfat, This is the milk sold for bottl- ing purposes. In making this announce- ment, The Ontario Milk Mar- keting Board stated that many Turnberry Twp.

In Europe, folk legend cred- its the hedgehog with being a weather prophet. fluid milk shippers in Ontario had received little or no in- crease in the price far their produce for three years, Delay in the price increase has been due in part to the fact that the new Board first had to establish uniform prices in Southern and Northern Ontario, which it did in the early part of this year, before initiating this general price increase, In order to maintain a con- stant supply of fresh milk throughout the year, it has been necessary to raise the price paid to farmers so that the re- turns to farmers supplying the fluid milk market are adequate in face of rising costs. In the last ten years, for example, farm wages have risen 54% and machinery prices 46%. To off- set these and other increased costs, the dairy farmer has on- ly received an additional 17% for each 100 lbs, of milk that he sells, over the same period. It is hoped that this price in- crease will stem the flow of farmers leaving the dairy in- dustry where there is a definite passibility of product shortage in the years ahead. 1. The government, in con- junction with farm organiza- tions, must draw up a long range plan for agriculture. This complete and comprehensive blueprint would recognize such things as the exploding popula- tion, figures, lack of any more tillable soil in Canada and in- deed in most of the world; the fact that by the year 2,000 at the current rate of population increase in Canada we would need another 40,000,000 acres of farm land to feed our people, farm labour policies and recog- nition that our rural and urban economies are inseparably inte- grated. 2.
