The white bean payment to 732 producers will total, ' $798,324. The Ontario Govern- ment pays two-thirds of the program of $532,216. • Eligible white bean pro- ducers will not have to submit application forms to receive payment. The Ontario Bean Producers'Marketing Board will certify tonnes sold by each producer registered in the white bean plan. Addi- tional information about the payment will be mailed to producers. The new level of support for corn will take the total 1982 corn payment to $8.6 million of which $5.8 million is the On- taio government's two-thirds share. The additional corn pay- ment comes as a result of Bean, corn revised price calculations conducted under the federal Agricultural Stabilization Act. Since Onatrio's payments must be based on the same calculations, the Ontario Farm Income Stabilization Commission is recommen- ding the additional $1.74 pay- ment to bring the total 1982 corn payment to $5.71 per tonne. The earlier $3.97 per tonne payment was announc- ed last November. Producers who .have already applied for 1982-83 corn payment will not have to reapply for the additional payment. They will automatically receive a che- que for the $1.74 per tonne. About 2,500 of the total 5,200 registered producers have already submitted applica- tions; the remainder must still apply for their Ontario payment. Registered pro- ducers will receive additional information concerning the payment in the mail. Federal stabilization payments for the 1982-83 grain corn crop The agriculture Minister Eugene Whelan also announc- ed a support payment of $4.48 per tonne to be made to grain corn producers under the Agricultural Stabilization Act. The Minister announced last fall that no payments would be made for grain corn marketed during the last crop payments year. However, based on revised data provided by Statistics Canada, the Agricultural Stabilization Board calculated a new sup- port price and a new annual average market price for the 1982-83 crop. Accordingly, at the 90 per cent support level, a support price of $114.86 per tonne was established, As the average producer price was calculated at 8110.38 per tonne, a deficiency payment of $4.48 per tonne will be made to producers. Total pay- ment to producers is estimated to be $14.8 million. Almost 80 per cent of the Canadian grain corn crop is grown in Ontario. Claim forms will be sent directly to producers who received payments under the 1980 Federal Grain Embargo Compensation Program. Other producers can obtain forms from federal and pro- vincial agriculture offices in their area and from the Agricutural Stabilization Board, Agriculture Canada Ottawa. KIA OCT. All producers are required to complete and sign claim forms to request payment. However, producers who have already sent original receipts to the Ontario In- come Stabilization Commis- sion will not be required to submit proof of sales since these will be obtained direct- ly from the Ontario Govern- ment records. New museum manager Royal Winter Fair general manager John A. Wiley will assume the position of general manager of the On- tario Agricultural Museum effective April 1, 1984, On- tario Ministry of Agriculture and food assistant deputy minister Dr. J.C. Rennie said this week. "The Ontario Agricultural Museum, like the Royal Winter Fair, attracts both ur- ban and rural audiences," said George Collin, executive director responsible for the museum. "Mr. Wiley's ex- perience in developing suc- • cessful programs appealing to these two audiences will be a great asset to the musuem." A native of Ailsa Craig, Wiley graduated in animal husbandry,frdin the Ontario Agricultural College in 1958. Following university, he was employed by the Western Fair Association in London where he held the position of agriculture department secretary and manager and racing secretary and manager. Wiley was one of the foun- ding members of the Ontario Beef Improvement Associa- tion, the forerunner of the present Ontario Cattlemen's The readers write Dear Editor, I would like to take this op- portunity to thank the Exeter Kinettes for the active part they take with the handicapped. I am the owner -operator of a two bed residential home for emotionally handicapped. My residents benefit greatly from the klnette type of planned activity especially as there are only two of them in the home. I wish to apologize to the Kinettes for lack of atten- dance at their Friday night function. I am sure it must be a great disappointment to go to the time, effort and ex- pense and receive less than 10 people in attendance. I hope that the poor turnout will not discourage them from further service work of this kind. Their service is valued and needed in the community and is much appreciated even though Friday night it did not appear that way. Thankyou again, Audrey Barry. Association. He served the organization as secretary - manager from .1968 to 1970 before his appointment as manager of 'the agriculture department of the Canadian National Exhibition. His most recent involve- ment with the agricultural community has been with the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair. During his 12 -year career with the Royal, he worked as superintendent of entries, executive secretary and from 1979 to present as general manager. He is well respected in the agricultural community for his ability to work well with agricultural associations and the industry," said Collin. "These skills will help us build a museum that is truly representative of Ontario agriculture." The Ontario Agricultural Museum, which opened in 1979, is opfuated by the On- tario Ministry of Agriculture and Food. It houses more than 20,000 artifacts in its 30 buildings open to the public daily from mid-May to mid- October. The museum boasted more than 40,000 visitors last year including thousands of children who participated in special school programs. Special Values!
