The licence fee deduction or checkoff from cattle sold to packers or through stockyards provides the funding for the Ontario Cattlemefl's Association. The expression of opinion or plebiscite had been requested by the Cattlemen's Association in 1982 because of concern that the increase in licence fees to fund On- tario's share of the national beef advertis- ing program would lead to a higher level of refund requests. Bob Chapple, President of the Ontario Cattlemen's Association, expressed disap- pointment that more producers had not ex- ercised 'their franchise. He stated, "5271' votes on the question were cast but that census figures indicate between 45,000 and 50,000 Ontario producers were eligible voters and although 15,000 to 20,000 of these would be dairymen from which 1 did not expect a large turnout, it still left 30,000 eligible beef cattle producers in the pro- vince. I really believe the vote results con- tain several components which include the following - frustration with currently depressed cattle prices, differing views on funding a beef advertising campaign, op- position to the basic principle of a non- refundable checkoff and producer views on marketing structure which are dif- ferent than that held by the Association even though that position was determined by cattlemen. If refund requests now escalate to an even higher level than we have experienced during the past year, then our ability to fund Ontario's share of the national advertising campaign will be in jeopardy." Chapple went. on to say, "Our executive committee discussed a number of issues with Mr. Timbrell including the results of the expression of opinion, the grim finan- cial reality facing many cattlemen this fall and the future for the cattle industry. He told us straight out that he was watching the outcome of the expression of opinion very closely from two standpoints - 1) com- mitment of cattlemen to their industry, and 2) direction or consensus. He told us that he saw neither in the results and that consequently he would be developing pro- posals to take to Provincial Cabinet. These proposals would deal with mechanisms for increasing productive efficiency of cattle and - beef in Ontario and for increasing marketing efficiency of cattle sold in On- tario. He indicated that supply manage- ment is not a component of the strategy which they were developing but that pro- duct promotion and advertising is . an in- tegral part of their strategy. Finally, he sought views from the Association Ex- ecutive on how to proceed once Cabinet had given him the green light." Chapple concluded by saying, "We en- couraged the Minister to provide oppor- tunity for public scrutiny and input from cattlemen to his proposals before im- plementation and that the Ontario Cat- tlemen's Association would like to work with him in any venture which will assist the competitive position of Ontario cat- tlemen either short run or long run." Four per cent of Ontario's population works the land On September 1, Dennis R. Timbrell, Minister of Agriculture and Food, delivered a speech to the Owen Sound Kiwanis Club regarding the future of the Ontario farmer. According to Mr. Timbrell, four per cent of Ontario's population work the land. He stressed that if farmers were to farm the way their grandparents did, it has been calculated thdt they'd need a labor force about seven times the size of the present one. A third of Ontario's urban labor force would have to give up its jobs in the city and return to the farm. The minister said that modern farming is nothing like that of generations past. He said that today's farm has the benefit of scientific research and the latest -technologyS'OAlsoethe>hired hand is increas- ingly becoming a computer. "The great majority of farms in this pro- vince are run by individuals or families," he said. "That is the situation today. But what of tomorrow?" Minister Timbrell asked if in a time of high -fixed production costs, increased operating expenses, exploding technology, computerization and sophisticated management, would there continue to be a place for the individual farmer? Recently, a world conference on farm survival, held in Ottawa brought out a number of startling facts. In Europe, at the moment, one farmer leaves agriculture every minute, an ex- odus from the land of 500,000 farmers a year. Big corporations buying up the land are blamed. Unrealistic income expecta- tions from farmers amalgamating their farms is another reason given for disillu- sionment and departure from the agricultural industry. The Minister claimed that everything that is being done at the Ministry of Agriculture and Food is aimed primarily at keeping the farmers on the land. He said that they are saying, "Yes, there's a future for the farmer, and yes, he will prosper." The ministry believes they are leaving the recession behind and with it, hopeful signs lie ahead. "That morbid focus of attention, the farm bankruptcy, is even showing signs off decline in Ontario — down 13 per cent from the same period last year," stressed Mr. Titnbrell. The Ministry has had to implement some assistance programs to help farmers over bad times. The Ontario Farm Adjustment Assistance Program is the best known. In- stead of being emergency bridge financing as it was in its first year, it is now used more to guarantee operating lines of credit. The 1978 Food Land guidelines are cur- rently being updated to ensure that the Agricultural Organization of Rural Land remains a prevalent municipal govern- ment policy, entrenched in the municipalities' official plans. Mr. Timbrell said that these initiatives complement Ministry - Assisted Land Enriching programs, some are quite long- standing, like tile drainage and some are new, like a $25 million program to help with construction of soil erosion control and manure storage systems. Later the minister said that Ontario's Import Relaceinent and Export policies enhance the chances of its farmers to con- tinue to do what no one else in the world can do any better. Basically the Ministry feels that its main approach is "to attack the structural pro- blems and let the agricultural community get on with it". Minister Timbrell said that one of the problems mentioned has been the increas- ing difficulty in young farmers having suf- ficient financial resources to enter the pro- fession. He said that they have now established a program, announced on August 31, that will give new farmers an opportunity to -buy a viable farming opera- tion. The Ontario Beginning Farmer Assistance Program will give relief on the re -payment of loans by refunding interest charges to first-time farmers up to five points. This rebate will apply on loans up to $350,000 and above eight per cent interest for transactions completed on or after May 10, 1983. Eligible beginning farmers will have access to $315 million in interest rate rebates over the next five years and the Ministry anticipates about 5,000 farmers will enroll in that period. "It is our firm belief that the beginning farmer assistance program will ensure a steady supply of enthusiastic, educated and energetic young individuals to carry on the farming way of life," explained Minister Timbrell. He closed by saying, "Are individual farmers in Ontario on the way out then? Yes. They are on the way out of recession, financial binds and low returns. But they are on their way into a world of expanded overseas markets, financial stability and improved prospects for the future." Mitchell High school has ten people involved in exchange MITCHELL - The students at Mitchell District High School are getting a taste of different customs and cultures thanks to a student exchange program which is being held for the first time at the school. Janet McCarthy, the exchange coor- dinator for the school, said 10 people were involved in the Mitchell exchange. Taking part in the program are Don Rouser, Martin Drevermann of Swit- zerland, Mark Beaven, Eric Leclerc of Quebec, Matt Willems, Stephane Lajeunesse of Quebec, Nancy Schooner - wood, Nancy Boucher of Quebec, Michele Greene and Julie Veilleux of Quebec. The exchange students arrived in Mitchell on Sept. 10 and will remain in this area until Dec. 1 when they will return to Quebec. The Mitchell students will travel to Quebec at the end of January and will return at the end of April. Exeter SIA wants crackdown on vandalism EXETER - Concerned over the growing incidence of vandalism in the core area, the Exeter BIA last week called on council to adopt a bylaw to eliminate loitering and also asked for more diligence on behalf of the local police department. Spokesman Bob Swartinan told council that there is a lot of unnecessary loitering in the downtown area at night' and this tends to lead to incidents of vandalism. In recent weeks, flowers have been torn out of the beds established in the downtown parkettes and some of the flowers have been tossed on to store awnings and stained them. The local business spokesman noted that a lot of money had been spent on the down- town "and we hate to see it damaged by people that don't care." Clerk Liz Bell said she thought the town had a loitering bylaw, but on investigation, found that one had never been passed ap- parently.
