LUCKNO SENTINEL 111111.1"', IEDNESDAY, APRIL 9, 1975 ANAIMMANIANYWIONVO HILL TALK BY WFORD DOUGLAS M.P. BRUCE NNW Hello once again from Parlia- ment Hill. As you know, we were unable to make a report last month, due to the tie up in the "mails. However, now that our communica- tion channel is open once again, it is:indeed a pleasure to be back with you and to bring you up to date on some of the happenings, here in Ottawa. It has been a busy couple of months since I last communicated with you. Both committees on Agriculture and Broadcasting have been under a full head of steam and the House itself has seen some exciting times. During the past month or so, I THE LUCKNOW SENTINEL, LUCKNOW, ONTARIO have sent out a newsletter and a questionnaire to the Riding. I' am pleased to report that the number of returns that I have had on • the questionnaire are extensive in every respect. I received many other comments not relating specif- ically to the questionnaire also, and I do thank you for 'these too. Your response has been most gratifying and is indicative of the extreme interest, that the people of the Riding have in the affairs of. Canada as a whole. As yet, all the returns have not, been received, and thus final tabulation and evaluation of the results' are not available at the moment. However, it is hoped that the majority of the returns will be in before Hill Talk is due again next month, and that I will be able to give you the results d of the questionnaire at that time. I would also like to let the people of the Riding know that my Private Members Bill to have° the name of the Riding changed from the Federal Riding of Bruce to the Federal Riding of Bruce-Grey received unanimous consent of the House and was given quick passage through second and third reading and Royal assent. Now, the Riding has a new official name ---- Bruce-Grey. This was one of the few things that I promised during my election campaign and therefore, I am pleased that this promise has been fulfilled. With this 'change in constituency name, I hope that the residents of the Riding, situated in the County of 1140.00 PAGE FIFTEEN Grey will now feel a closer bond with the remainder of the Riding, and will also feel that they are being represented equally here 'in Ottawa. • Perhaps now, I could turn to some of the legislation that has been dealt with in the House. In the Agriculture Committee, there are two very important pieces of legislation being considered. The Farm Credit Corporation Bill, Bill C-34 cleared the Committee stage on Thursday, March 20th, and is presently in the report stage. It is' hoped that it will receive third and final reading before the Easter break. However, 'there are only a few 'days remaining and that may not be possible. The Bill itself is designed to amend the Farm Credit Act as it now stands. It will allow young people under the age of 35 years, to borrow up to $150,000.00 towards establishing themselves in the profession of agriculture. It will also allow these young people to phase into farming over a period of time, up to a maximum of five years. What the legislation means is that the applicant need not be principally occupied in farming after the loan is made, as is now required, for some time after the loan is made. However, they must have the ability to farm well and they must be, able to show the Corporation that they intend to make farming their principal oc- cupation and to show by' a plan of development that they can make their farm an economic unit within five years time. The Bill will also eliminate the need for a first mortgage on the farm also, as is note required. Loans could be secured by second or subsequent mortgages, this will 'allow farmers to leave mortgagei that they might already have, undisturbed and still take advantage of a loan under the Farm Credit Act. This should also help make more private funds available to farmers because the private lender will be able to have that important first mortgage. These then are some of the provisions of the amendment to the. Act. I feel that these are provisions which will enhance farming for some of the young people to-day, and perhaps even entice some of our very capable young men and Women back into the full time business of agriculture. As you are probably aware, too, the House was required to pass legislation on Monday, March 24th, to get the long, shoremen and grain handlers back to work.. It is hoped now that the shipments of grain overseas, which have been hampered drastically for the past year will flow smoothly and efficiently for some time. I feel that this simply points out, the fact that at this time, more than in any other time in our history as a nation,' Canadians 'of all walks of life, all occupations and,-all political persu- asions must come to an agreement, that negotiations and co-operation must take precedence over con- frontation and obstruction. Our future as a people and as a nation, depends on • this. Until next time, I wish you the best for the coming Easter Season. Rocky Racoon has done additional reading through the files at the Ivlaitland Valley Conservation Authority and has come up with more tips on cross-country. skiing. The skis themselves should be stored in a cool place during the summer, then put out in the snow to absorb moisture before use in the winter. Ideally, skis Should be dry before you try to apply proper waxes, and remain cool before going on an outing. Never allow your skis to stand in a puddle of water, as this causes the laminations to separate. Always carry a screwdriver to keep binding screws fight. This prevents a lot of wasted effort when skiing. Dbn't worry about gouges in your skis, they can be filled with plastic wood, or if tog deep, sanding is suggested. It's' a good idea to either glue splinters into place, or trim them with a jack-knife to prevent them from pulling away from the ski. The skier should never over exert himself. Over tired muscles are easily injured and usually require a good deal of time to mend. Keep in mind • that cross-country racers run for 20 to 30 miles per day for months to get into shape before entering competitions-. When skiing it's a good practise to force breath out' when' you exhale. This rids the body of carbon dioxide gas, thug helping to prevent tiring and exhaustion. Skiers should always be careful not to become overheated while on the trail. When you• return home, it issuggested•that you take a bath or shower within 10 to 15 minutes to prevent chills and to relax muscles: Always be very careful if yowl" ski, alone. Be wary of obstructions in your path and judge whether or not to remove your skis to go around them. If you become very tired, find a comfortable' spot to rest. After putting on an extra jacket, it's good to eat some candy. or take / small drinks. Always avoid getting cold while resting, and try to use different muscles when starting up on the trail' again: If you're planning a ski trip, always be familiar with the area either by visiting ahead of time, or by studying maps. Make sure that you / record landmarks, and be aware of your directions. If you get lost, you can try to back track your own trail. If several tracks are present, search for those where the ski. pole has left .drag marks in the snow. This tells you which -way the skier • was travelling. Rocky hopes that some of these tips will 'be helpful to you and would be • more than happy to provide more information on cross- country skiing to anyone who requests it from the Conservation Authority. In life let the other man's ex- perience be your best teacher. NO CHANCE Character, and courage cannot be built into any man by those who would take away -his in- itiative and independence. I
