continue to rise. There
has been a lot of talk
about rates levelling out
but economists say it
may be the myth of our
time. Compared to in-
terest rates in the United
States at near 20 per cent
and about 23 per' cent in
-Great . Britain, ours is
probably as low as
anywhere. A recent Bank
of Montreal' report said a
new combine valued at
$80,000 with .the bulk
financed at 16 per cent,
would work out to $40,000

of some commodities are
not as high as they were

Bill Davis says . _•
he'll review to
for rural hydro
A commitment to
reduce rural electrical'
rates by bringing them
.more into line with those
paid by urban residents
of Ontario was announced
recently by Premier.
William Davis.
Mr. Davis said he has
instructed Ontario Hydro
to come up. with new rate
proposals, hopefully as
early as this Fall.
"It is quite obvious that
under the new proposals,
the. lower rates will not
recover all of the costs of
the rural power system",
said the. Premier.
"However, the current
inequity between urban
and rural residents in the
purchase of electrical
power is going to become
increasingly burdensome
to our rural people and
justifies the change in,
policy", said the
Premier.
The rural power
district serves an area of
some 250,000 square
miles where there are an
average of 14 customers
per mile of distribution
line. In the municipal
system there are more
than 100 customers per
mile.
"With the increasing.
trend toward ur-
banization, over the next
few years there will
simply be fewer and
fewer people in our more
sparsely settled areas of
Ontario sharing the rural
cost burden", Mr. Davis
told the Legislature.
For example, in the last
10 years, some 80,00p
uu�tumers who were
formerly supplied with
electricity directly by
Ontario Hydro became
customers of municipal
utilities.
Agriculture and Food
Minister Lorne C. Hen-
derson said the Premier's'
announcement is: "Good
news to our -rural com-
munity — especially at
this time with'our""'rural
residents undergoing
such increasing costs
because of inflation and
high interest rates".
At the present time,
Ontario Hydro's "rural"
retail system or rural
power district serves
more than 770,000 retail
customers or 27 per cent
of the electricity
customers in the
province. These are in
addition to the more than
two million retail
customers served
through the 324 retail
municipal electric
utilities which obtain
their hulk power at cost
from Ontario Hydro.
"The percentage of
Ontario electrical con-
sumers served by
municipal utilities is
increasing steadily.
Government policy
continues to be aimed in
that direction. But the
consequences of the
comparatively higher
rates for those not served
by municipal utilities are
obvious. Therefore, I
have di'reeled that ways
he found not only to avoid
this rate trend but 'to
reverse it", said Premier
Davis.
live happily ever after,
but that'snottrue for the
purchaser.
.How do we cope with>
.risi•pg interest rates and '
galloping inflation?
We must start with
careful analysis of the
farm business. Financial
and production records
must be kept on a sound
basis. Accurate 'com-
piling of profit and loss
statements and cash flow
is so essential in making
a pitch to •a financial
institution.
Make sure you shop
around in purchasing
inputs. Generally .prices
are very competitive. But.
if there is a difference,
take advantage of it.
Work closely with the
manager in setting.a line
of credit with one bank.
Establish a line of credit'
for one full year. An
operating loan •of $5p,000
will cost $700 per. month
in interest.
-. Whene_v_ex_-,- possible,.
work land acquisition and
major building and.
equipment purchasing
into long term borrowing.
Above all, finances
must be worked out on
paper. Make sure there is
enough cash . flow to
service the debt. In a lot
of instances, there is
great volume but poor
profit. Make use of all
bench marks.
- Take a good look at
capital turnover. A good
situation is two years
gross income to equal the
farm investment.
In a successful
operation, 35-40 per cent
of farm sales would be
retained for debt ser-
vicing, labor, and living.
Production .goals will
Continue to be very im-
portant. Good production
figures are 400,000 pounds
of milk for a 30 dairy cow
herd and 18 pigs per sow '
per' year in:. hogs. Far-,
ming in the 1980s will
continue to .be more
specialized.
Recent rapid increases
in soybeans will not likely
continue in 1980. Acreage
was under 1,000 acres five •
years ago.,It rose to 8,000
in 1978 and doubled to
16,000 acres last, year.
Poor harvest conditions,
lower yields and white
mould in 1979- may be
cause of a return 'for
many Huron farmers to
white beans. The number
of acres planted in winter
wheat last fall is nearer a
normal. level than for a
few years becaus-e • of
better fall weather and
planting conditions. We
can expect a trend in the
--80s--to._.-mores
corn silage and ' more
• production per . acre per
farm.
Everyone desires to
improve their production
goals:- -This goes with
specialization. When I
came to Huron in 1968,
there were 1,500 milk
producers. That number
has dropped off to less
than 500, but they have
almost as many cows
producing as much or
more milk.
In spite of all of the
adverse conditions,
farmers are innovative,
flexible and. willing ,.to
cope with'risks. They are
