Department of Agriculture Sponsors Farm Management Courses An increased number of Ontaric farmers will have the opportun- ity to participate in the Farm Management Programs of the Ontario Department of Agricult- ure and Food which are set up to assist individual farmers in anal- yzing and solving their farm business problems. Will it pay to purchase this machine? What farm adjustments. are required to reach a specific net farm income? What are the market prospects for this farm product? The challenges and questions facing each farmer are different. Farm Manage- ment Programs are designed to meet these challenges. Farm records provide some of the information needed for decision making. CANFARM a computerized monthly mail - in farm record- keeping system, and the Ontario Farm Record Book are two record-keeping systems available through the Farm Management Program of the Ontario Department of Ag- riculture and Food. In 1971, the Ontario Farm Record Book will again be avail- able free of charge to Ontario farmers. Year-end analysis in- formation for 1970 and 1971 Re- cord books will be available to those who submit their records . for analysis. The Ontario Department of Agriculture and Food, through the Extension Branch, will be able to accommodate most farmers who may want to make use of the CANFARM system in 1971. Registration of farmers on CANFARM is being handled by the Agricultural Represent- ative and his staff in each County and District of the Prov- ince. Farmers participating in CAN - FARM receive monthly and year- end income and expense, cash and credit statements for their own farm operation. As with the Ontario Farm Record Book, staff of the Intension Branch are available to assist fanners in us- ing the information obtained from their CANFARM records. Budgeting, cash flow, financ- ial counselling, transfer agree- ments, tax management, and estate planning are all important parts of the Ontario Farm Man- agement Program., Mr. Bruce ktcCorquodale, a member of the staff of the Extension Branch, co-ordinates the Farm Management Inform- ation Systems in Ontario on behalf of the Department.

Keller) Every year about this time, Huron County engineer James Brintnell presents members of county council with a set of stat- istics covering snowfall in Huron County. Over a period of 30 years, the average snowfall in Huron County has been 83 inches per winter. Last year, 105 inches of the fluffy white stuff fell'in this area but lucky, pointed out Britnell told councillors, there were few wind, to whip them around. Thus far this winter, Britnell told council, there has been 78 inches. That's more than double the amount of snow which norm- ally falls in the same period according to the 30 year averages This year as well, Britnell had another set of figures to tickle the fancy of county resid- ents. The county engineer was trying to show that there is just no possible way that the county winter road condition should be compared to those highways maintained in winter by depart- ment of highway crews. ' Britnell reported that it costs the county about $450. per mile for maintenance while the dep- artment of highways spends about $2, 000 per mile. DHO has three times as many snowplows and four times as many sanders than the county road department, continued Britnell. "There simply is no compar- ison, " concluded Britnell. 0 No Increase In Huron Road Rate (continued from page 1) roads as soon as you and we woul like to, " continued Britnell. "We feel, however, that it is wise to hold the tax rate at this time and it will just take a little longer to get all the work we would like to do done." Britnell outlined the financial summary for the 1970 program showing that total road const- ruction cost $314, 512.39; bridges and culverts, $269, 040. 90; road maintenance, $521,134. 48; bridges and culverts maint- enance, $6, 084.53. The total presented for subsidy was $1, 481, 537. 89. Items not for subsidy totalled $53, 438.85 Surplus of county funds for 1970 amounted to $16, 523.77.
