Alergies On
The Attack
Allergies in children can be
caused by many different culprits,
including perhaps, hospitalization
before the age ' of two.
In a" recent study of allergic ct children who were all 13 years of
age it was found that five times as
many allergic children had had
early hospitalization compared to a
group of nonallergic children. It is
thOught that hospitalization and
'especially anesthesia at very young
ages may play a part in the later
development of allergies.
So far there is not enough
evidence on the subject. But many
different situations and substances _
can trigger' allergic attacks. In a
booklet "Hints for Control of the
Home Environment for the Allergic
Person" the wide ranges of
offenders are listed.
Substances we breathe can cause
allergic reactions. Certain foods
can cause allergic responses in
some people. Objects we touclican
trigger reactions. Bites from some
animals, insects and fish can set off
a response. So can cold, heat, and
light. Then there are emotional
factors such as tension, fear, hate,
and depression.
Once the offender has been
pinpointed, there are several way!
in vrilich allergies can be treated:—
One •way is by injections which
make the person less sensitive to
the offender, but even better
eliMinate or avoid the offending
factor if possible.
SLANTED
Don't be taken in by other's
advice — the hardest thing to
get is an honest opinion.
Provision for farm income .
protection in Ontario budget
falls far short of OFA's ex-
pectations, said ' Bill Wolfe,
President, Bruce , County
Federation of Agriculture.
The amount budgeted is
disappointingly small for an
industry as large as agriculture
and one that contributes so
much to stimulating jobs in the
rest-of the economy. •
' However, the OFA com-
mends Treasurer Darcy
McKeough and the Cabinet for
planned legislation that
recognizes OFA's demand for
farm income protection. (OFA
says farmers must be able to
recoup all costs of production,
including_ capital costs,
management skill and labor as
well as input costs.)
We are .delighted and en-
couraged - that the provincial
government recoginized f our
recommendations for ', farm
income protection. Never-
theless the government has
failed to recognize the large
contribution made by
agriculture to , the total
economy..
Farmers pay $30.9 million in
taxe113s; $1rnillion in wages;
$ m 'Ilion in interest
payments; $247 million for
farm machinery; $98 million
/
for fertilizer; $452 million for
feed; -$16 million for seed and
plants. Last year operating
expenses for Ontario farmers
totalled $1.6 billion.
An increase of just $1 in the
well-head price of oil would cost
Ontario farmers an additional
$8.4 million • in one year. That
minimum 'increase in oil alone
would wipe out almost half the
amount the Ontario govern-
ment has budgeted for farm
income protection.
The federal. 'Agricultural
Prices Stabilization Act now
being amended by Parliament
is not, in itself, sufficient to
keep farmers in food produc-
tion.
Provincial government
recognition that we must have
full cost of production shows
that the provincial government
wants to keep farms in
production, and assure food
production does not fall behind
in Ontario.
However, it is difficult . to
understand why the govern-
tnent would . set its financial
sights so low for agriculture
when money pumped into
farming has such a big impact
on the remainder of the
economy. •
Mr. .McKeough's. budget is
obviously designed to stimulate

BALANCE WHEEL
There is no progress without
.confidence, and there can be no
confidence without faith.
the present lagging economy'
and' there is no better way of
doing that than by stimulating
agriculture.
Thirty-five to 40 percent of
Ontario• jobs in processing,
manufacturing and service
industries depend on
agriculture. When agriculture
is profitable farmers are big
spenders for production items
as well as for normal consumer
items. Any extra money
pumped into agriculture cir-
culates quickly and helps boost
job opportunities in other in-
dustries.
Farmers will also be en-
couraged by two other
measures in the budget.'
Farmers will not pay Ontario
succession duties on estates of
under $250,000, an increase
from $150,000 'that reflects
current inflation. Also, the
farm need only be kept in
farming for 10 years, a
decrease from the present 25
years. .•
The increase in the once-in-a-
lifetime gift that escapes tax
will be raised to $75,000 from
$50,000. This will provide added
incbntive to retain the land In
farming and make it easier to
pass , the farm to ensuing
generations.
