Pullen said, "the Inter - nation Plowing Match is the most outstanding,- show in North America. lf• not the world." In Wingham Thursday Agriculture Minister Newman announced changes which will give a more in- tegrated form to the marketing division. His announcement was as tallow's: first we are going to establish a food market development branch. This btranch will have two primary functions. Firs t will develop and im:l�ji programs designed 11- - crease consumption' here at home of Ontario -grown: f . sh and processed agricultural ;products., All our existing domestic marketing programs will be con- solidated in the new branch including the foodland Ontario" consumer marketing campaign, which. has _already achieved notable success over the past year. The second function of the market etevelopment branch will be to spread' the word that good things' grow in Ontario to the Fest of the world. A new program will be developed to expand -our export trade both in existing markets and in new markets with potential' "for large volume. This section will built[ on the foundation laid over the years by the Ontario Food Council and it will carry forward the successes oh our recent overseas trade missions. • ' The establishment of the new food market develop-" ment branch will involve -.repealing the act under wisich the Ontario Food Uouncil operates at present. The, 'Food Council's trade' practices responsibilities will be transferred to the „Ministry of Consumer and C'ommercia'l .Relations. You may recall that when the Food " • Council was established, the Ministry of Consumer and Commercial Relations did not exist° Now. howeveilp with the Ministry firmly established in the trade practices field, I believe that these powers as they relate to the food in' -dustry ought to reside there. We are also going to streamline the farm products marketing area. I have asked 'senior staff to review the operations of the milk commission of Ontario and the farm products marketing board to see whether they meet -today's -needs and requirements. For the time heing. as an interirri� measure�_th Wilk.-�om- mssion 9f Ontario and the_ farm products marketing board will have a convnon chairman. This arrangenient has existed, in effect, -for the past two months, since the chairman of the milk commission has been acting chairman of the farm products marketing board. • For administrative pur- poses, staff of the com- mission and the board will be brought together to form a branch which will contiue t6 provide administratttttiv and support services to the two boards. A further change in farm products marketing will be the establishment of an appeal process to administer (he appeal provisions presently contained in. both the milk act and the farm products marketing act. This will bring to an end the present situation where the two bodies regulate their respective commodity •i(i11111111 ill IIHlllllit 111111111111111111111 ADAMS Heating & Cooling • Heating Systems of All Types' INSTALLED -'GDERNIZED and MA NTAINEO • General Sheet Metal -Work - • Air Conditioning • Humidifiers • Ventilation 235-2187 - - 133 Huron St East Exeter -e tttttttL 111111t11111111111111111111111i1111Ii • boards and also form courts of appeal. , The final major change will be the amalgamation of the milk industry.branc and the tarn[ products inspe tion branch into a quality con rol branch.
