Consumer spokesman, farmers What happens when a consumer leader confronts a room full of farmers on the problems of marketing boards? In the case of Ruth Jackson versus the farmers of the Huron County Federation of Agriculture, it seems to be an increase of mutual respect. Mrs. Jackson, of Kitchener, President of the Ontario section of the Consumers association of Canada and a member of the Farm Products Marketing Board met tough questioning from the •larger than t normal crowd at the monthly meeting of the Huron Federation in Clinton on Thursday night. In her talk she said farmers said the consumers association are really on the sane side, She said it was unfortunate that often farmers feel the C.A.C. is an enemy when the C.A.C. wants to work with farmers to help stabilize farm incomes and thus food prices. She said the C.A.0 believes some form of farm income stabilization is needed. She decried the B.C. man to speak on farm income Is the farm income protection plan in British Columbia working? Huron county farmers will have a chance to find out first hand next week. Charles Bernhardt, past president of the British Columbia Federation of Agriculture will speak Tuesday night in Wingham on; the B.C. plan. All farmers are invited to, attend. Controversy in Ontario has been brewing over the success of the British Columbia plan. Donald MacDonald N.D.P.

She said a food policy would help have known what was gonig on behind the the situation. She said she thought that scenes. probably the country could get along Mr. Bailey wondered if the average without some of its food land if there was consumer knew that pet foods came from full production on what land was left, She the same sources. Mrs. Jackson said she said it is obvious that there is extra didn't think so, but that the pet food was at production capacity in some commodities least more sterilized than meat being sold such as eggs and chickens ,where farmers over the counter from such sources. have had problems with sfirplusses. Discussing the dairy industry, Mrs. Mr. Hazlitt wondered if consumers' Jackson said the old practice of a complaints about food prices weren't more year-to-year dairy policy was "a hell of a a matter of mistaken priorities. Weren't way to run a business". She said the consumers more worried about an C.A.C. in questioning fluid milk pricing snowmobile or second car more he was not really against the farmer getting wondered, Mrs. Jackson admitted that this better prices. She said the C.A.C. had was partly the case and said food had asked for an inquiry into pricing because probably remained too low too long. It the price to the farmer had to be proven wasn't so much a case of the price of food justified by the Ontario Milk Marketing being so high, she said, as a case of too fast Board but beyond the farm gate there a rise in the price, needed to be no such justification.

If meat Morris township council contributed, at its June meeting, towards a fund to help offset the damage caused by the April flood in Lower 'Town, Wingham. The fund, operated by Turnbcrry township, received a $100 grant from Morris. I In other business Bruce Boland, Sarnia Environmental Officer with the Ministry of the Environment was present to discuss the condition of the Morris township dump, He made recommendations concerning the operation of the dump. Court of Revision was held on the Bowes Drainage works with no appeals heard. Road accounts of $4,081.36 and general accounts of $61,254.39 were approved for payment, East Wawanosh awards gravel contract The tender of ,toe Kerr construction Limited for providing gravel for conces- sions four and five ut' East Wawanosh was accepted by township council at its June meeting.

Building permits were issued to Alan Campbell, Schultz Brothers and David Onn and to G. R. Jaretzke subject to his attaining a certificate of compliance from the Ministry of the Environment. A petition was accepted from .1. Voelmle for the repair of the Voelmle drain. Court of revision on the Kect and the Deacon - Thompson drainage works will be held July 2. Road accounts of $27,665.76, general. accounts of $1,947.59 and the education levy of $39,722.50 were approved for payment. is of agreement producers had a marketing board, he said, there would not have been the present fuss over bad meat because all meat would be sold in open view. Mrs. Jackson said her organization was in favour of provincial marketing boards but not national ones. She said Ontario producers were bound to lose in national boards, just as they already have, she said under the egg and chicken marketing plans where Ontario quotas have been cut back. She said food should be being produced in the area where it can be produced most economically. Mr. Durand argued that federal marketing boards and a "one -desk" selling agency. When he and his bean salesmen are overseas, he said, they were always being asked, "Why don't you sell me some of your beef or some of your corn?" Mr. Hazlitt said the marketing board has been blamed for pushing up the price of beans but it was a miscalculation by Canadian buyers that was really responsi- ble. He said the facts were contained in a little -publicized report by the Food Prices Review Board and showed that foreign buyers bought early in the year while domestic buyers held off, hoping the price would drop. But instead the price went up and the Canadian buyers (and consumers) got caught. Mr. Durand argued that marketing boards are a monopoly but other segments of the economy also have monopolies. He pointed to the taxi cab business. in cities where the taxi operators association has a say in who can have licences and how much they will cost. He also spoke of the dump truck operators association which did away with such regulations and recently had to reimpose them. Mrs. Jackson said that farmers should be a little more subtle in bargaining and not come out full blast on the first step. At that Jake VanWonderan remarked: "Aw come on Mrs. Jackson, you know farmers have been too soft for years." PG. 2.

Mr. Licbovitz commended the cunlnlittcc for the progress they made which has put then( in the forefront in Midwestern Ontario District for preparing their schools for the changeover. He said the Canadian Govern- ment has set 1980 as the target date for the completion of Canada's metric conversion pro - grans and the Ontario Ministry of Education along with other provincial departments of educa• tion has set June 1978 or sooner as the dateline. He explained that we arc presently predominately Imperial measurement. Mr. Dewan said the metric system will be introduced in all grades of the 19 separate schools by September 1976 and in use exclusively by June, 1978. Mr. Dewan said awareness workshops for staff will be held May 30 and starting in September intensive in-service workshops and implementation in math - measurement area 111 primary and intermediate classes and as pilot projects in junior classes. Jack Lane, Business Admini- strator, said the metric kits for each school will cost about $75 in the primary division and $100 in the intermediate division for about a total of $2,850 in the 19 schools. He said the government is proposing to pay a grant of 75 cents per pupil to help with these costs. Kippen Trustee Michael Connolly said, "Now 1 can sec the need for professional develop- ment days!" In other business the board was given a report by William Innes, Stratford, attendance counsellor for the board who said the number of referrals had decreas- ed since he was hired in 1971. He gave the reason for this because the students knew he would investigate any truancy. Mr. lines said he has on occasion been called in for consultation by a family in trouble to help counsel a student.

But seldom do we seem to look on the bright side, The taxpayers of Blyth, for instance, have been saved a good deal of expense by the work of some of the organizations in town; work that seldom gets as much recognition as it should. Visit the beautiful little Horticultural Society park on Dinsley Street for instance and you'll see that we have been blessed with one of the prettiest parks around this part of the country. Yet the part costs the village very little...a small donation to the Society yearly. Likewise we have a larger park provided by the Lions club. The Lions park provides the only picnic area in town and the only supervised summer play area with the wading pools there. it provides the only soccer field in the town or it provides just a nice big, green open space to make life in the village a little better. The huge agricultural park is owned by the town, but the excellent facilities in the park have cost the taxpayer very little, thanks to the generosity of groups like the Huron Pioneer Threshers Association, the Bluth Agricultural Society and the Lions Club. In fact there has been almost nu money spent on capital expenditures for recreational facilities in this town in the last 30 years. Even Memorial Hall was built out of private donations, not public funds. Public funds were used to replace the roof on the Hall but there were many private and group donations as well. Funds for the kitchen at Memorial Hall have been provided by the Women's institute as have funds for decorating the bazement meeting hall in the past. The new curtain in Memorial Hall will be provided by the Legion and the Ladies Auxiliary has also provided money for improvements to the hall. The Little Theatre has been investing its funds in the improvements of the stage area. So when that tax bill comes out this month or next and it seems to be higher, look on the bright side. if it weren't for the many ambitious community groups, it could be a lot higher. That's one of hidden benefits of living in a small town where the community spirit helps keep down the tax bill. Toronto's got the tourists Figures released the other day show that one dollar in every four spent by tourists in Ontario is spent in the city of Toronto. Niagara Falls, the once -king of tourist areas in the province has fallen badly behind. The areas of the north and of the western Ontario lakeside resorts are poor cousins compared to Toronto. Much of the Toronto tourist industry is due to a burgeoning convention business. With new hotels sprouting up like weeds and a reputation as the cleanest, safest major city on the continent, Toronto is bound to gain more of this business. But some of the growth in tourist business seems to be due to the efforts of the provincial government too. Two of the biggest tourist attractions in the city are Ontario Place and the Ontario Centre. Both were built with your dollars. A few years ago it seemed that Toronto had the benefit of all the industry and large business in the province. For the rest of us, it seemed, we had the option of farming and tourism to keep us going. Now, it seems, Toronto with the help of the government, is getting most of the tourism too. A switcheroo Usually the more "liberal" elements of our society seem to picture the government and even the courts as villains out to rob helpless individuals of their rights. It seems strange then, to hear government and the courts now being blasted for their attempts to protect the rights of individuals. But such was the case earlier this week when a Montreal jury ignored the instructions of the judge and found Dr. Henry Morgentaler innocent of committing an illegal abortion. Morgentaler's lawyer, Claude Armand Sheppard called the decision a great victory and said "How can they refuse to pardon this man who has been acquitted twice and is still in jail? Never in English law has the refusal of the people to allow an evil law to continue been so clear," Mr. Morgentaler, of course, is the famous (or infamous depending on your view) who was earlier convicted of an illegal abortion by an appeal court after a jury had found him not -guilty. This second case tried this week was over an abortion committed on the same day as the one he was found guilty on. He has also admitted performing some 7,000 other abortions. His defence in the case was that it was necessary to give the abortion for the health of the woman in question. The judge said that argument was just not valid in this case, but the jury ignored him. Dr. Morgentaler and his supporters feel they have been vindicated, that the peop;e have spoken. Let's hope, however, that the government and the courts )f the land don't knuckle under. We haven't a silver of a double that in the long run of history Dr. Morgentaler and his supporters will be regarded as misguided fools. The prospect of life they uphold is too gruesome to imagine. When one human being is given the power of life and death over another, the world is on the brink of suicide. The aim of the abortion supporters, to rid women of the disastrous effect unwanted pregnancies can have on their lives is a noble one. But abortion is not the answer. The only answer can be preventing conception in the first place. To give a woman or her doctor the right of life and death over a fetus is to open the door to same kind of totalitarianism as Hitler practiced. In our case, however, it is a totalitarianism from the grassroots perpetrated by misguided selfish people, rather than imposed by the governors of our land. It is the governors who are trying to prevent us, as individuals from destroying ourselves. Recognize this scene. It looks considerably different than it did in this picture taken early in the century and brought in to The Standard last week by Harvey MacCallum of Blyth. It's the scene looking west on Drummond at the houses of Bill Buchanan, Esther Johnston and Gord Jenkins. This picture of the old Blyth band was brought to the Standard office recently.

Those were the days 5 years ago WEDNESDAY, JUNE 10, 1970 A good crowd was on hand for the first pony races to be held on the Blyth oval last Sunday afternoon. Twenty ponies took part in the nine race events. Dick Lobb of Brucefield was announcer and Bruce Allen of Clinton was official judge. Considerable more work has to be done around the track and the association hopes to have this accomplished this month. All crops look excellent with white bean seeding 60 per cent completed. Hay harvesting has begun particularly for haylage, with some alfalfa weevil damage noted. Rain will soon be needed as soil is rapidly drying out.

Poor corn grading raises ire "[he poor quality of the grading done on corn has raised the ire of Huron county farriers. Frank Rcinink brought the subject to light at a meeting of the Huron County Federation of Agriculture at Clinton on Thurs- day night. He complained that the corn varied in size so much that it was impossible to get a plate for his corn planter that would distribute the corn at an even rate. Some dealers, he said, told him the only solution was to move to a placeless corn planter but this woulc cost him nearly $5,000 he said, and he couldn't see having to pay all that money just because of poor seed grading. He won support for his argument from other farmers present who had the same problem. The meeting passed a resolution to O.F.A. calling on seed companies to improve grading so that plate panters could be used. Agricultural Tidbits Wonder where the dollar went, WITH ADRIAN VOS One wonders what it takes to convince some well educated people that there are only 100 cents in a dollar. They say, "it's only a cent,, and they go on spending onecent after the other, Only when they are down to the last two -bits they begin to wonder where the dollar went. Ontario's • Environment Mini- stry does our spending that way. When confronted with protests over sewage lagoons which arc at least 100 acres each, they stated that 100 acres is insignificant compared with what agricultural land is Icft. There is a difference with the people who are spending that dollar. When agricultural Deficiency payment Agriculture Minister Eugene Whelan has announced that the deficiency payment, under the cow slaughter stabilization pro- gram announced December 13, 1974, is $5.08 per hundredweight on a live weight basis. Producers may claim on all beef or dairy cows sold for slaughter between 16th to December 13th, 1974. For the period December 14th, 1974, to April 30th, 1975, they may claim on 5% of their herd sold for slaughter, provided not more than 2% were slaughtered in any one month. Small herd owners of 40 'cows or less may claim on two cows. The national weighted average price for DI, D2, D3, D4 cows for the period November 16th, 1974, to April 30th, 1975, was $18.13 per hundredweight. The $5,08 payment to producers brings the price up to the support price of $23.21, established under the program. For those eligible for claims, application forms are available at the Ontario Ministry of Agricul- ture and Food offices, packing plants and sale yards. Sale bills are requested and it is necessary that they be marked SL, signifying cows were sold for slaughter. it is. also necessary for a provincial or federal official to certify claims before forwarding them to Ottawa. land is down to "two -bits" it will be a different minister to count the pennies. ***** Some people are concerned about the introduction of the metric system. Don't be afraid. When you need a four inch nail, you'll still ask the store for a four inch nail. It will be 10 centimeters long but for you it is still a four inch nail. You need some two by fours. They'll still be the same size and the same name. Remember they aren't 2 x 4 now either. Instead of a gallon you get four litres. The litre is close enough to the quart that in the majority of cases you can say litre and mean quart. A yard is close to the metre. Length measuring will be one of the easiest to adjust to because of its similarity to the dollar system. 2.25 metres is I 1 197 1973 19t 1972 Da top, 6 au 1972 Chr much like $2.25. The opposition comes mainly from people who are afraid of change, afraid of something new and that are often older people. i haven't heard opposition from younger people because more younger than older people arc ready to `.adopt something new. , ***** Grain stocks here and in the buying countries are low, Yet the buyers are slow in their purchases and are taking a gamble that prices will be low and crops good. This of course keeps prices down. If the crops are not good however their gamble may be a costly one. The Russians apparently won't take that gamble and their trade missions are in the U.S. now for negotiations with grain dealers. If they make big deals the price will increase too, and the reluctant gamblers will have lost. sed Car Savings GMC Sprint hevelle, 2 door, hardtop dge 1/2 ton pick-up t swinger, 2 door, hard matic, with radio. ys er, 4 door, hardtop 1971 Chrysl r, 4 door, sedan 1971 Dodge van 1970 Nova, 6 s`t ndard 2� oor, hardtop,8 1969 Mleteor, automatic, power' steering and brakes, radio 1968 C'hev, 4 door, h:rdtop CRAWFORD MOTORS CHRYSLER - DODGE PLYMOUiH WINGHAM ONTARIO 357-3862 THE BLYTH STANDARD, JUNE 11, 1975.

Gaunt expresses concern for saving prime agricultural land Ontario's cities and towns continue to grow at an alarming rate and unfortunately that growth spills beyond designated boundaries and into farmland. Huron -Bruce MPP Murray Gaunt raised the point in the Ontario Legislature admitting that the province cannot fight growth but it must reconsider its priorities and fight for sensible growth. The Province of Ontario has 98 per cent of its agricultural land in the 4, 5, and 6 class bracket with good agricultural land being very limited. In Ontario less than seven per cent of . the land is arable and only 21/2 per cent is class 1 and 2 land. This percentage coupled with climate conditions under which good crops can be produced narrows down the good soil available in the province. "I say these high quality lands must be preserved," Grant said, "I think good land is a productive renewable source, second only in importance to people." The largest losses of agricul- tural land are now corning in the counties having the most 1 and 2 land. Over the last 20 years Southern Ontario has lost 20 per cent of its top farm land which represents over four million acres. From 1966 to 1971 the removal of improved land of high fertility has increased by 600 per cent while the unimproved land dropped to slightly over 10 per cent. Good agricultural land immediately adjacent to big cities ^:tnnot and will not be saved since �t will only he a nutter of time before urban sprawl gobbles it up. 4-H Dairy Club meets The Third meeting was held on .lune 5 at 8:30 at Frankens. We opened the meeting with the pledge. Roll call showed 22 out of 23 members present. A class of dry cows were judged and reasons were given. Eddie did a type demonstration on a horse. The juniors and seniors all did a lesson out of the manual, Answers were taken up and lunch was served by Mrs. Franken. Sharon thanked the hostess and meeting was adjourned. Meeting was adjourned by John Franken and seconded by Harvey. "The land, which must be protected is land with the capability of top crop production, situated away from the large cities. 1 think it is important to realize that the actual acreage required for agriculture depends on population, dict, agricultural products exported and imported, as well as productivity. There are a lot of things which go into the total mix." In an agricultural paper re- leased by the University of Guelph it was calculated that 1.15 acres of improved land is required to produce the basic food needed for one human being. Using that figure only nine million people could be supported on the 10.5 million acres of class 1 and 2 land that remains. The progress of technical advances in the field was tremendous over the last 20 years but that progress has now slowed since the available technology has been used and it is unlikely that anything better will come along to help farmers produce more. Therefore increased production due to technological advances will be limited in the future in comparison to what preceded it in the past. Out of the 53 counties and districts in Ontario, eight counties which include, Bruce, Huron, Perth, Lambton, Waterloo, Well- ington, Middlesex and Oxford, which account for only two per cent of the land arca in the province, produce 48 per cent of the province's barley, 59 per cent of the total mixed grain, 83 per cent of the total dried beans, 46 per cent of the shelled corn, 46 per cent of the fodder corn, 50 per cent of the cattle and 63 per cent of the hogs marketed in the province. However these eight counties have also been affected by ribbon development over the past couple of years. Mr. Gaunt explained that farmers who are bought out for one reason or another in other counties are making their way into the eight producing counties with a pocket full of money and buying land at greater prices than the local farmers could pay. This he explained is keeping younger people off the farm. "As a result you get this tremendous ripple effect that is affecting land prices right across the province and the ability of farmers to stay on their land and of young people to get into the business of farming," he said. "It certainly has a tremendous bearing throughout in terms of capitalization of farming today." Mr. Gaunt then pointed out that since a high percentage of quality soil and half of Ontario's food production comes from these counties and also that a good percentage of the provinces class 1 and 2 land is within the boundaries of these counties it is important that the land be protected by the Ministry of Agriculture. Mr. Gaunt re-emphasized his point in his closing remarks urging complete protection of class I and 2 land: "i am not talking about classes 5, 6, 7 and 8, 1 am not worried about those at all. We can build houses on that land. We can put roads through it. We can do all kinds of things with it. That's fine by me. l don't care about that. But 1 do care about the class 1 and 2 agricultural land. When some- one says to me, 'Don't worry about it. We have lots of land to go around. We will never run out of land,' frankly and with the greatest respect to the people who say that, I think they missed the point completely." O.P.P. investigate several accidents During the week .lune 2 to June 8, 1975 the following investiga- tions were carried out by officers at Wingham Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police: Nine investigations with nine persons charged under the Liquor Control Act. 'Twenty-five charges laid with thirty-six warnings issued under the Highway Traffic Act, Twenty-one other investigations, On Monday, June 2, Sam Sweeney of Brussels and Gary Keffer of RR 1, Ethel were involved in a collision on County Road 16, east of Sideroad 10.11, Grey 'Township.

Pictures of groups and activities within the congre- The Empty Pew BY W. JENE MILLER He complained that his Church, was unhappy because he did not call on them often enough. 1 told him I had the opposite problem. Seems that the more i call on members the more they get upset. 1 call on them to be regular in attendance at worship, and study, and they get hostile and say they go to Church, when they really only go to church school class (which is NOT the same as going to worship!() I call on them to attend our local, district and conference training programs, and they complain that they have too much to do as it is. 1 call on them to come to our Church dinners and join the fellowship of their church, and they complain that there is too much going on at church. I call on them to get into a soul -growth process and learn to be rid of hate and fear and greed, and they complain that I'm being nosey. 1 call on them to be responsible to God for the way they vote, and they complain that God has no business in politics (except to save our country from foreign powers.)1 call on them to serve on the Boards and Committees, and they complain that nothing is being done, or else that no one will listen to their ideas. 1 call on them to Tithe because the Scripture holds that as the standard of Christian obedience (Matt. 23:23), and they complain that all the Church wants is money. AND THAT IS SIMPLY NOT TRUE!! The Church wants a lot more than their money! We want their time, their skills, their family - relations, their children, and their very death for the cause of Jesus Christ!! gallon during the past 50 years were also on display. Following the Service, about 175 members and visitors re- mained for a congregational dinner. At the conclusion of the ureal, guests who had been member's of the United Church in Blyth 50 year's ago were welcomed and introduced with each giving a word of greeting.

The trip there took one hour and thirty-five minutes, When we got there we saw a fifteen minute film on the Bruce Nuclear Power Development. After the 11lnm, guided by three female guides we took the bus through the plant, which is now under construction. Before we left, pamphlets were handed out. We left the plant in a hungry state, so we stopped at a small restaurant to buy a can of pop. We ate at Road Side Park. On the way back we stopped at the Wingham Frosty Queen.

Senior Citizens Week focuses attention on their contributions and needs - pro- moting and publicizing services provided by the Ontario Government to senior citizens, and encouraging development of recreational and social services in communities across Ontario. For instance, lots of seniors are volunteering to help other senior citizens —driving them to appointments, helping them to fill out income tax returns, teaching them, sharing experiences with them, Did you know that there are many senior citizens' physical fitness pro- grams that you can join (including Senior Citizens' Olympics organized in some Ontario communities)? Did you know that seniors themselves have developed many clubs and centres for their own special interests, including just about everything from gardening to world travel? With 1000 senior citizens' clubs here in Ontario, as well as 90 senior citizens' centres, there's bound to be one in your community. What's more, there are many special interest clubs that aren't limited as to age—camera clubs, social clubs, study groups, a whole range of subjects that people who are retired now have me for. Through special grants and other as istance, older people are finding the opportunity to go back to school and unive •ity—to develop new talents and concen ate on new interests.

Class learns about banking On May 26 Hullett Central's grade seven class took a short field trip to the Blyth Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, the visit was relating to the grade's math (•lasses. The students asked the bank manager, Mr. De Boer, many various questions about the way the bank is run. The pupils were shown a new $50 bill, told how to (distinguish a counterfeit bill from an original bill and were also given a short tour through the bank and the bank vault. School health committee to be formed BY ROSS HAUGH As the result of a recommenda- tion from the education commit- tee of the Huron County Board of Education, a school health co-.trdinating committee will be formed in Huron. Mrs. Molly Kunder, chairman (f the education committee told board members Monday that the new health committee ' would include three members from tire board of education; three from the Huron Board of Health along with Dr. F. J. Mills, Huron's Medical Officers of Health and D. J. Cochrane, director of educa- tion. Formation of the health committee came about as the result of a request from the Huron Board of Health as recommended in the report of the Provincial Task Force on School Health Services. At a joint meeting held May 20, Dr. Mills said, "our board of health thinks this is a good idea and should be developed." At that time Dr. Mills suggested the new committee be made up of people concerned with education and health of students. He added, "It should represent parents along with medical and education groups." Huron trustee Charlie Thomas said, "I'm in favour of this committee but it would be too large. Seems more like public relations than a policy making group." Huron warden Anson McKinley agreed with Thomas saying, "i think the committee is a good idea but policy should be set by representatives of the two boards. Experts can be called in at particular points when any help is needed." McKinley continued, "I've been concerned with the avenues of communication between the boards of health and education and this is a good start." This was a very interesting and educational trip for all who attended. AREA TRACK & FIELD DAY On May 27, the Clinton area held its track an(i field day. Seven local schools participated includ- ing Blyth, Hullett, Clinton Public, Seaforth, Clinton District Chris- tian School, Holntesville and Huron Centennial, Hullett once again, did really well by twinning 381 points, only seven points from the champion- ship, which was won by Blyth with 388 points. Therefore, Hullett was in second place, Huron Centennial in third and Clinton Public in fourth. The Hullett participants at this field day should be congratulated on such a good effort. FASHION SHOW AT HULLETT The Hullett Central School's gymnasiam was decorated with bouquets of flowers while the grade seven and eight girls presented Fashions Alive in 75.
