LAND USE POLICY The Perth Federation fully endorses a comprehensive agri- cultural land -use policy prepared by the OFA. The policy states that "Class one and two land must be reserv- ed for food production and any departure from this policy should require the most searching examination." The policy also maintains that agricultural designations for land should be established as perma- nent land use classifications. At the same time th,e OFA stresses, "Agriculture should be used as a permanent zoning designation only on land that is capable of viable, economic food production by virtue of soil classification and location in relation to markets, climatic zones and urban influ- ence." While Perth Federation farm- ers are convinced that some kind of land -use policy must be imple- mented, they are also concerned that the government not imple- ment such a policy in a piecemeal fashion. Neither farmers nor the politi- cians at the meeting were con- vinced that any land -use policy would be quickly adopted by the government. "After all, we've been talking land -use policy since early in the 1960s," Mr. Jarvis said. PORK PRODUCERS Perth County porkproducers, reports William Keller of RR 1, Mitchell, are still concerned about the labelling of concen- trates and feeds and anticipate "a real battle ahead". A i ut three years ago the Perth pork pr ' ucers presented a resolution in, ; c ting that the' labelling system on prepared feed and concentrates was not adequate. The resolution was sent to Ottawa "where we were assured that in the fall of 1973, some changes would be made in the feed act and our concern would be included in those changes. Nothing happened since then." Mr. Keller explains that the meatier, leaner type of pig requires less feed per pound of gain but a more highly concen- trated feed and a more complex mixture. "We are more willing to pay for the quality in our ration than for the quantity." Chemical analysis alone is not sufficient, he says, because "digestibility and taste are just as important. For instance, pigs fed a concentrate mixture on the floor before you feed your corn or barley can be wasted if it con- tains proitein sources which don't taste good such as meat meal, blood meal and rape seed." The problem is further com- plicated because of the amount of different proteins and synthetic amino acids used in balancing feed rations. Mr. Keller says there are over 100 different pro- teins used in Canada and from 10 to 15 synthetic amino acids "of which only one works". As for the proteins, "some are limited in their use because they contain toxins and cannot be fed to all animals ... It seems to me that more and more hydrolyzed feather meal is added to the ra- tion than there was a few years ago. It is of very little value for pigs which have only one stom- ach, because ofa very poor" balance of amino acids, but is one HOLLYWOOD HOTLINE 'Macon County Line' makes Baer fortune By NANCY ANDERSON HOLLYWOOD — 'Max Baer, sharp-witted, good natured, outspoken and very rich, was contemplating his recent good fortune. and prospects. for more of the same. "Macon County Line," his first picture as a writer - producer, is making money hand -over -fist, which means Max is too. ,It's expected to bring in $40 million, of which Baer will get approximately $7.5 million, while his second production, "J. J. McCul- loch," is expected to do even better. Max makes no secret of the fact that immediately before the "Macon County Line" bonanza, he was in bad shape professionally, financially and emotionally, and that not even in his wildest dreams did he anticipate his' present prestige and affluence. "Did I drearn I'd ever make $7.5 million dollars?" Max said, repeating a question. "No. I never got that high. There's no way I could have smoked that much. "After 'The Beverly Hill- billies' ended, I couldn't even get a job. I did two 'Love American Style's' and a Movie of the Week, and that's all. "I was thinking of tryingto get a job selling cars. During that period, if I'd made as much as $5,000 a year, I would have thought I was on Easy Street. I would have been roll- ing." So, with nothing else going for him, Max noted an inter- esting story in a newspaper, converted it into a movie script, and, with the help of a friend, Roger Camras, with whom he played golf, raised the money to produce a pic- ture. iature. "We actually raised MAX BAER " . there's no justice in this business" V2 IPA $100,000," Max said. "Most of - the picture we made with my Shell -credit card." His next picture, "J. J. McCulloch," was made from another'script Max wrote get- ting his idea this time not from the paper but "out of my head." • With Baer producing, di- recting and starring in the film, it cost $1.5 million, which Max hiinself invested. American = International will release' it in May, • "Now," Max said, "I'm writing a script for- a picture about oil in Texas. I'm calling it 'Shamrock,' and it should cost about $5 million. If any-, one else made it, though, it would cost $12 to $13 million." "There's no justice in this business," Baer went on to say. "But if 'you worry about that, you go crazy. "Yes, I've noticed that people are friendlier now than they were when I was unem- ployed, but if they weren't my friends before, they aren't my friends now. , I've shut the door. "Emotionally, my lowest point didn't come When I was out of work. It came while I was. doing 'The Beverly Hill- billies,' because I didn't like the show. But I thought I'd rather do that than do noth- ing. "I like writing and directing and producing, but I still like'' acting, too. I like it all, be- cause I like the feeling - of people knowing who I am. "Actors who claim they hate being recognized are lying. For, if they really felt that way, they wouldn't be in the business. "Everybody deserves a little privacy, but I look at it this way. When you take the cape and jump in the ring with the bull, you have to fight. You can't march in with the picadors and then go sit in the stands." As evidence of his new af- fluence, Max, who could scarcely pay rent a couple of years ago, was about to buy Quincy Jones' fine home in the Coldwater Canyon area. Money, he cheerfully ad- mitted, is nice to have as is the respect he's now getting from his peers. "I was walking down the street the other day," Max re- flected contentedly, "and passed the Daisy where a lot of people were sitting out front eating lunch. "David Janssen was at the table with some guy who yelled at me, 'Is there any- thing you need, Max?' "And I yelled back, 'Baby, I don't need nothing. I got it all!'". of the best to put up the total exude protein on e llabe�." The manufacturer, according to Mr. Keller, "is very much pro- tected under e existing feed act." E , CROP IMPROVEMENT Hans Feldman of RR 3, Listowel reports the Perth County Soil and Crop Improve- ment Association "views with alarm the rapidly increasing, un- checked disappearance of good crop land, as it. is being used in- discriminately in urban and in- dustrial developments." According to the association's figures, in the Urban Arc, the eight counties along Lake On- tario, improved farm land de- creased by 27 per cent or 437,000 acres out of a total of 1,611,000 acres in 20 years from 1951 to 1971. In 22 counties of southwest and central Ontario, "the heart- land of Ontario agriculture", the disappearance in the 15 years from 1951 to 1966 was 1.3 per cent or 106,000 acres out of 7,881,000. Even more alarming, "in the five years from 1966 to 1971 the reduction increased to 502,000 acres or 6,4 per cent". This much land, says Mr. Feldman, would be capable of producing the same amount of corn that Canada now imports from the United States. In the past, he says, a reduction in acreage could be compensated for by • increasing yields with un- limited supplies of fertilizer, chemicals and fuel readily avail- able. But the present shortage of these materials and the sharp in- crease in their price "together with an increased concern for pollution control make any future dramatic yield increase doubtful and uneconomical". The association recommends that governments classify and treat farm land as a resource rather than a commodity and adopt policies to govern the use of this resource. "In addition land - use planning should direct in- dustrial and urban development to areas of marginal land to stop any further infringement on class ohe and two soils." WHEAT PRODUCERS Perth wheat producers are concerned about the consumer' subsidy on the seven-year wheat sale agreement' with the federal government and with the limits one grower can market. Robert Holmes of RR 3, Mit- chell says the Perth wheat pro- ducers "favor an indexing of the subsidy schedule to the rate of inflation with the crop year of 1973 as a base" Mr. Holmes 'describes 1973.as "a good crop year". The final price per bushel then was $4.26 and the says "we can • live with that". However, the association also points out that the inflation rate in 1974 was 11 per cent. As for an upper limit for wheat growers, Mr. Holmes says the first consumer subsidies had a limit of 500 bushels ." `which almost everyone believes was too low, so it was removed and no limit at All was placed on the amount grown or marketed by anyone". This is equally unacceptable to the Perth group. "Farmers now realize that cost of production plus profit with no restrictions means very few farmers and we fear wheat growing will be no exception," Mr. Holmes reports. Beef producers however, as noted beforehand, "think it would be better if beef cattle numbers were dictated by supply and demand within Canada". Reporting for the'Perth County Beef Improvement Association, Mr. Lennon notes, "We ap- preciate that, cow -calf men are Don't Send Up Smoke Signals Place an ad in Crossroads for HEAP BIG RESULTS ONE AD IN CROSSROADS COVERS THE CIRCULATION AREA OF THE LISTOWEL BANNER WINGHAM ADVANCE -TIMES and MOUNT FOREST CONFEDERATE crit .. mums' now suffering considerable losses, most a which have been caused by too many calves. Many of these calves are because of government incentive plans." EGG PRODUCERS Stating the case for the eggpro- ducers, Mr. Eckstein said On- tad producers have had to drop their price five cents.'below the cost of production to keep imnpQrt- ers from replacing our markets. "Surely the egg producers should not be the sacrifice in our land." The Ontario Egg Marketing Board does diet have agency power to import eggs when the table market is short, Mr. Eck- stein points out, and does not have rigid production controls on the number of hens, "but rather tries to control the eggs after they are produced." The board has curtailed pro- duction in the province by 38 per cent below the allotment of CEMA. It has also accepted' a re commendation that the responsi- bility of removing within quota surplus be divided between the federal and provincial treasury. "The structure is such that co-operation from all provinces is of paramount importance," Mr. Eckstein says. "To make the• national plan effective each pro- vince must adhere to an effective quota system, and with this we must have border protection or controlled production is only a farce." FINANCING In general, , Perth County farmers also believe that com- pared to some of the generous fin- ancing program's offered to farmers by such provinces as Quebec and British Columbia, the Ontario government doesn't offer fanners in is province much in- centive at all. While ey were unable to sub- stantiate the figures, farmers meeting in Mitchell agreed ey "have all heard a great deal" about a loan program in Quebec at allows young farmers rrow a totall of WOO 01 on average interest of five per cent, payable over 30 years. "If this is true, how can. the Ontario farmer possibly compete with that kind of program?" Waldron Eckstein wondered.
