Bean Producers present brief
Wednesday, January 22, was
the day the Ontario Cabinet
visited western Ontario to hold
one of their regularly scheduled
meetings, and this time the
city of London was picked for
the site.
The idea of the Ontario Cab-
inet going to the people with
their meetings is to try and
arouse more interest on the
part of the general public. In
London on Wednesday dozens
of various groups presented brief
and among them was a present-
ation made by Phil Durand,
R. R.2, Zurich, on behalf of
the Ontario Bean Grower's Ass-
ociation,
The text of Mr. Durand's
brief was as follows:
This Brief represents the
wishes of 3, 000 producers of
white and yelloweye beans in
Ontario who are deeply conc-
erned about their future liveli-
hood and that of their fellow
consumers who enjoy nutritious
and delicious beans. The Bean
Industry is a viable example
of a rapidly expanding agricult-
ural commodity which has
doubled its total production in
the past six years and has not
only benefitted the producers
of beans but the Province of
Ontario and particularly note-
worthy is the fact that our total

OPP Sgt. Norton Rhines of
Exeter detachment said Monday
night.
Sgt. Rhines said doors and
windows were smashed to gain
entrance. He said there was
limited structural damage inside
the cottages.
The break-ins were discover-
ed Sunday by Walter MacDoug-
all, of R. R.1, Fullerton, a
cottage owner who went to
check his property, said Sgt.
Rhines.

exports have increased steadily
from the inception of Agency
Marketing in 1968 to our pres-
ent estimate of 75af0 of a crop
of 2, 000, 000 hundredweight
which represents the largest
crop in history. This product-
ion should be greatly appreciat-
ed in a world frought with dis-
aster and famine.
1973 White Bean Production by
County. (Last complete year of
Agricultural statistics)
Huron, 54, 000 acres, 63, 210,
934 lbs; 39.6 percent of total
production.
Middlesex, 21, 800 acres,
33, 620, 596 lbs; 21,1 percent
of total production.
Perth, 18, 600 acres, 30, 341,
888 lbs., 19.0 percent of total
production.
Lambton, 5, 600 acres;
8, 812,221; 5.5 percent of total
production.
Elgin, 12, 300 acres, 12,436,
416 lbs. 7.8 percent of total
production.
Kent, 5, 800 acres, 6, 117, 771
lbs; 3.8 percent of total prod-
uction.
Miscellaneous, 2, 900 acres,
4, 898, 18. lbs; 3.2 percent
of total production.
Huron, Middlesex, Perth
and Lantbton counties, which
represent 85.Ko of the product-
ion would be directly affected
by air pollution. North West
winds are the prevailing winds.
85.` .,, of the 1973 crop would
represent a gross sales value of
over 40 million dollars.
Beans are highly susceptible
to air pollution. The devastat-
ing effects of ozone damage on
beans in Kent county around
1968 reduced the white bean
production in Kent county to
a very minor amount. Prior to
this Kent county was the lead-
ing producer of white beans.
Now it is in fifth place out of
six major producing counties.
The effects of air pollution
have been documented in such
research papers as:
1, White Beans; Bronzing link-
ed with air pollution, G.M.
Weaver, J. W . Aylesworth and
H.C. Dass --reprinted from
"Canada Agriculture 'Fall 1968.
2. Relation of Crop Maturity.
and Physiology to Air Pollution
incited bronzing of phaseolus
vulgaris. Jerry H. Haas --
reprinted from Phytopathology
Vo. 60 No 3 407-410 March
197 0.
3. Relationships between
bronzing in white beans
and Phytotoxic revels of
Atmospheric Ozone in Ontario.
G.M. Weaver and H.O.
Jackson, Research Station,
Canada Department of Agricul-
ture, Harrow, Ontario, 1968.
Additional information on
the detrimental effect on veg-
etation and livestock will be
forthcoming showing the catast-
rophic effects in the United
Kingdom.
In addition to the influx of
people that such a power plant
would generate, past experience
has shown that the supply of
farm labour would be further
jeopardized.

along with supplementary ind-
ustry, extra highways and car
pollution a power plant of the
magnitude considered would
further deplete the prime agr-
icultural land of Huron County.
The installation of hydro
line corridors would further
disrupt the normal farm mach-
inery traffic.
From the existing power plant
in the rearby area it seems that
a five mile radius has been
established prohibiting every-
thing except farming.
It seems difficult to compre-
hend that the wise use of prime
farm land has been relegated
to such a position and that farm.
ers in this relationship seem to
be considered dispersible.
We sincerely hope that our
brief will be considered in the
light of the excellent agricult-
ural potential being offered by
Huron County and the neighbour
ing counties to keep Ontario in
the forefront of agriculture in
Canada and to further develop
and promote Canada as one of
the World leaders in the export
of agricultural products thus
doing what we can in a world
plagued by starvation.
