In a letter dated Feb. 21, OFA president Ralph Barrie, urged Prime Minister Trudeau to move quickly to cushion the effects of high interest rates on, farmers. "Emergency measures should be put in place im- mediately to forestall econ- omic disaster for farmers, especially young and be- ginziing farmers;" Mr. Barrie said. Mr. Barrie congratulated the prim' e minister and his party on their recent return to office, and noted the positive plans for agrici1ture outlined by the Liberal party during the recent election Campaign. The LiberaLs promised to exempt farm fuels from fed- eral excise tax, protect far- mers from imported foods being "dumped" into Canada, renegotiate chicken import quotas, protect and enlarge the Farm Credit Corporation, and increase funds for agri- cultural research and development, among others. "These measures, when im- plemented, will strengthen not only our agricultural industry, but also Canada's economy. The OFA will continue to en- courage the new government to implement its (promis* es quickly," Mr. Barrie said. Terpstra, $7,000; Jerry Olechowski, $10,500, and Charles Shobbrook, $10,200.

Apparently the land division committee approved the application, however the planning board appealed it Energy efficiency key to the future Insulating your attic may save you a bundle, but in the future residential energy efficiency will have to go further than that. A FACS Sheet, published by the University of GUelph's college of family `and consumer studies, discusses the dramatic fuel savings which could result from redesigning cities and communities. The new designs would' lessen dependence on the car and decrease the cost of providing municipal main- tenance and services. The FACS Sheet calls for financial incentives for in- novation in city planning and fuel efficient housing. It urges Canadians to consider more factors in home buying than the trim on kitchen cupboards. Large scale savings are possible over the long term, but for the present home- owners can realize dramatic savings through insulating, caulking and lowering the thermostat. Solar technology is developing rapidly, but complex legal,' technical and •political issues remain unresolved, the sheet says. Increases in price could reduce consumption to a degree, but the university suggests pricing structures could be revised to reward the small energy consumers with lower rates. Energy costs and apply may cause significant changes in lifestyle and family structure, as families adjust their activities to cope with expensive energy. The challenge is to improve the standard of living While bringing consumption - oriented, energy -intensive lifestyles more int* llne with the earth's finite resources.

"The 15 per cent fee must also in- clude the cost of preparing the MAME" In previous years in- vestigators for the Ministry of Consumer and Gmunercial Relations discovered cases Where tax discounts had returned as little as 50 per cent of the total anticipated refund.
