The plan was explained Thursday CARD PARTY.Feb. 14 at night at the monthly meeting of the 8:30 -p.m. at Orange Hall, Huron County Federation of Agriculture Clinton. Sponsored by in Exeter by Maurice Bean- of RR 1, Stanley Ladies Club. Auburn, O.F.A. director for Central Admission 75 cents. Ladies Huron. Mr. Bean told farmers at the please bring lunch. —6p meeting that the plan has just come up for discussion by the 0.F..A. and so far only a few rough guidelines have been worked out. He said he understood the plan would work similarly to crop in- surance with farmers paying into an insurance fund during good years and drawing from the fund in lean years when prices were bad and income fell. The plan would be voluntary with premiums shared by the farmers and the government. The guidelines, Mr. Bean stated, would be that payments be based on a reasonable cost of production for each commodity; that there be protection against increased input costs; that there still be an incentive,to sell at top prices; that there be an incentive for production of both qualityand quantity and that the plan not interfere with the normal marketplace. A good deal of skepticism about the' plan was expressed by the farmers present. It was pointed out that a similar plan is in effect now in British Columbia where the New Democratic Party government brought the plan into effect to compensate farmers after a land freeze was imposed. There was concern on the part of the farmers present about the potential cost of the plan and whether it could be made to work. work. NEW BINGO - Clinton Legion Hall 8:30 p.m. February 13.

More discussion'will be held at,tlie Huron county meetings in the coming months to let the local directors know how county farmers feel about the plan. Guest speaker, for the meeting was Mason Bailey of Blyth, O.F.A. Director for north-west Huron who spoke on contracts and gave the farmers an idea Qf what to look out for when it came to signing contracts. He said the O..F.A.'s property com- mittee gets more complaints about contracts than about any other source. He said farmers too often either don't have things in the contract that should be or don't understand what is in the contract. A contract by definition, he said, is a written agreement between two or more persons to undertake or refrain from doing things. Because a contract is only between people for their own use, it is not a crime to break a contract and the only way a contract aan be enforced is through the civil courts: yet very few cases ever make it to court. Probably more contracts are gotten out of by simply not fulfilling the contract than by any other way, Mr. Bailey said, because unless the other party is willing to go to court to enforce the contract, the matter will be dropped. Most of the contracts farmers sign, he said, have been contracts drawn up by the other party they are doing business with, whether it be an equipment company or a building contractor and thus are not usually to the advantage of the farmer.' Mr. Bailey said that even standard contracts can be changed if the farmer insists on changes in wording. He. said he wondered if the O.F.A. might design a standard contract for farmers to use which would help tilt any benefit in the contract to thefol'mer's side. He advised farmers to ask a salesman to explain everything in a contract and If he can't give a satisfactory explanation then the farmer should' take the contract to his lawyer before signing or have changes written in. A resolution was passed at the meeting calling on the O.F.A. to investigate the practice of some fertilizer suppliers to insist on tying one product to another. The resolution,followed complaints from two farmers that they had been told they would have to buy a fertilizer blend containing potash when they didn't want any potash. It was expressed the com- panies felt they could make more money on the total blend rather than by selling the fertilizer without potash. Tuckersmith... (continued from page 1) Hearn of Lucan. The authority, in its inaugural meeting of the year, approved the bid of James F. McLaren Ltd. of. London to do flood plain and fill -line mapping on the entire watershed.
