Council approved setting up the Blyth and District Conimunity Centre bar account as a reserve for arena expenditures. *The re- solution was required for the auditor. Without the reserve fund the account would be income for the village and cause a drop in taxes the following year. The fund is used for arena expenses in January, February and March.

Farming has changed over the past 40 to S0 years into a complex business which involves for a lot of farmers work off the farm in order to make sure his products have a good market. The Gay Lea members were knowledgeable on every aspect of what effects their business, From Government cutbacks and shortages to impacts made in their market by foreign products, these men and women were informed. More so than a lot of other businessmen in other fields. Another thing. that surprised me was that Gay Lea makes a margarine product.But as the secretary pointed out, in order for the business to compete they must keep abreast of What the market demands.

Many Hien and women who went to light must have felt that it was a nightmare that would never end. After seeing all of the war movies and 111nis, you ' can think of all of the deaths involved in the wars. Ever since the wars people have set aside a special day which is November eleventh, for everyone to remember the soldiers who fought in the battles. This day is very special for the people who realize what it must have been like and for the people who were involved in sonic way. I wish there never would be a war against Canada or any other country. This is what 1 think about Re- membrance Day. What about you?

In these troubled times when consumers are shaking sticks at farmers for high food prices, farmers are starting to tight back, We are dependent on the farmer for his contribution to. our tables and too often we ignore that fact, It's about time we started giving credit where credit is due. There are fewer farmers then 20 years ago and those !'ewer farmers are producing more, How many businesses can boost the same? ****** Another thought for the upcoming week is the Londesboro Lions Paper drive, if you want to get your newspapers cleaned (11) before the holiday season the Lions will be around this Saturday morning.

Each year on November 111h we take a few minutes to remember the brave men who gave their lives for us during World War One and World War Two. Not only in Canada but through out the world, people remember their own hero who fought to keep their countries free. Many of us had relatives who fought in the war. Our own fathers were mostly too young but a lot of our grandfathers and great great uncles fought in these wars, especially World War Two, My Grandfacther and two of my uncles were in the second World War. My great, great, uncle died in World War Otte. The sten that died for us when they fought against the Germans in both wars were brave men. They deserved to be remembered, Can you imagine what it would be like to live in a world under someone like Hitler? His hatred of so many kinds of people Iikc Jews would have - eliminated different nations from our world. Wouldn't that just be terrible? To -day in our country. Canada. We are free to go where we like and do what we want. This wouldn't be it it hadn't been for the men who gave their lives to stop Hitler and the German from taking over the world. So every November l 1 th we wear a poppy and usually attend a Remembrance Day ceremony in a near by com- munity. We drop our heads in salute to these brave men and keep silent for a FEW MOMENTS. isn't that the least we can do for those brave men of both of the two World Wars?

But if Blyth residents are not more careful, children may be among the ones to suffer this year. The dog problem in Blyth has loomed its ugly head again and small packs of dogs have been seen chasing children around the village. Complaints have been placed and threats made to have the dogs shot but the solution to the matter lies with the owners of the dogs. A certain amount of responsibility must be exercised. An owner must be aware of where his pet is and, make sure that the pet is not causing harm either physically or mentally to someone else. Blyth is reasonably small and enjoys a country atmosphere. But that is no reason to let dogs run wild on the streets. Danger to children is not the only problem here. Dogs tear and scatter garbage put out for collection and make it difficult for residents to, keep Blyth the clean village we have all come to know and love. The problem rests with dog owners. If not enough care is exercised by them and the dog problem does not clear up, council may be left no choice but to take more drastic action. After all what is more important? Our children or free running dogs? SIN numbers Anyone who earns a dollar in this country must have a SIN number in order to be eligible for social security programs such as unemployment insurance. In return for an oportunity to collect untold wealth without effort the government has assured us all that our numbers will not be used for any other programs. We will not be known as a number only in our nation's capital we are told. But the promise has been issued without much thought and already the SIN number has become a necessity of Wildlife here in Canada. In order to register for sports or hunting licenses we must show our SIN number. ' If the use of this number cut the incidence of services like unemployment being taken advantage of, we, the masses being ripped off could see a benefit. But the horrible face is that we the tax paying public are still beim taken for a ride by non -entitled unemployed recipients in spite of registration by a national identity card. Somewhere along the line we have lost our privacy and odds are that intrusions will get worse. Once SIN numbers are upon birth as they are in some provinces more future abuses of the SIN number are foreseeable. The time to stop this regimentation of the Canadian population is now1Federal MP's should be urged to produce protective guidelines restricting the use of SIN numbers. To the editor: Used stamps wanted Especially at Christmas time, I think of all the used postage stamps that are needlessly discarded. These seemingly worthless art- icles, from any country, are sold in bulk by the Scarboro Fathers, to stamp dealers, to help finance mission projects throughout the world. In 10 months I have received over 100 lbs. of cancelled postage stamps, in small quantities, in very large quantities, from schools, service clubs, companies, individ- uals etc. They add up quickly if everyone collects them for me. Please separate the 8c & 10c Queen Head stamps as these are sold separately. It hardly takes a second to rip 'the used postage stamps off of an envelope leaving a bit of paper around it. This can be. YOUR way of helping the world's poor without costing YOU a lot of time or money. Please send (by "Third Class" Mail )' or bring all your cancelled postage stamps, anytime of the year to: Mrs.R. M. Chmay, 230 Jarvis Street, Fort Erie, Ontario L2A 2S5 or Mrs. J. C. Lawrence, 6782 Dorchester Road, Niagara Falls, Ontario, L2J 2Z2 Thank you, R. M. Chmay Visitors in Blyth Behind the Scenes by Keith Roulston One of the stange things about life in the 1970's is that many of that things that make us the most irritated are things that were originally designed to help us. Government seems to be the biggest source of complaint these days with its tenticals reaching into every nobk and corner of society. Few of us seem to remember, however, that it was usually us, Candian citizens, who demanded the government get involved in this or that aspect of life to protect us from the misdeeds of others. If there is a problem, say builders putting *up houses that aren't what they should be, we demand the government get involved to protect us. A year or so down the road we then conveniently forget that it was us who caused the government interference in the first place. One of the non-government organizations that draws the most fire to day from ordinary disgruntled citizens is organized labour. People are pretty tired of being deprived of some essential service every time they turn around. Yet the union movement had a very essential part to play in 'the formation of our modern, affluent society. It's nice to take a stroll down a street in an old rich part of a city and see the huge mansions built in the late 1800's and early part of this century. There's real class in those buildings, class people usually can't afford today. What's easy to forget, however, is that the class in those buildings was paid for more by the hard work of men, women and virtual children working six days a week, 12 to 15 hours a day under the most horrid working conditions. Death and disease were com- monplace among the workers and even those who survived these probably had their lives vastly shortened by the rigours of their jobs. ,Most of the credit for our longer life expectancy. goes to modern medicine and nutrition but at least some should also go to the unions. In other countires life was even worse than here in Canada. Children were sent to work in the mines and the mills of England as soon as they were able to help. They were treated like animals while the cultured gentry of the country lived unbothered by twinges of conscience in their elegant castles and mansions. The union movement was indeed needed but it didn't come easliy. The rich industrial and mining barons like their position, had a feeling that hey had a right to keep their cheap labour. They weren't going to let unions change things without a fight. And fight there was, long bloody wars between uions and the companies who hired toughs to put the workers in their place. But eventually, after many years of struggle, the unions won the right to organize workers, to bargain collectively and to withdraw their services if they didn't feel they were getting a fair deal. Most of us today forget those formative days of the unions when we're upset with the union movement. Union leaders, however, seem only to remember those days. They are so steeped in the history of the movement they forget times have changed. The seige mentality is so strong that the union is always right, the company always wrong even today. Take a look at what happened recently when the Executive ofthe Canadian Labour Congress did not support the Postal Workers. The union leadership was grilled from one coast to the other by union members who felt that all unionist must stick together in everything. It bears a striking resemblance to the "my country right or wrong" attitude that was disproven in the U.S. during the Vietnam war only a few years ago. In more recent years we've seen another case of individuals organizing to win battles through strength in numbers. The consumer movement hadn't even been heard of a few years ago when a thin, impoverished -looking lawyer named Ralph Nader took on the gigantic General Motors Corporation about defective design and . workmanship in automobiles. Incredibly, Nader won and people began to see that they could take on the big guys and win. Consumerism was on the march. And there's still a lot of good in the consumer movement today. We need to have someone to fight against the general trend' to foist shoddy merchandise on an unsuspecting public. The problem is that in their zeal , the consumer activist too often 'are getting way off base destroying the cridibility of their movement and becoming downright dangerous. The recent call of the Consumer 1' soication for the govrenment to abandt farmers to the free market by withdrawit. all aid to agriculture is a good point in fat of the idiocy that can come from th consumer movement. Organizing to take on the big guys is one thing but to have affluent middleclass urban dwellers takle farmers as if they were General Motors is a little ridiculous, not to mention being so short sighted as to be idiotic. If the consumer movement got its way in this, the whole country would be in horrible trouble within a decade. The need for both the consumer and union movements is still strong. Sure things are better than they once were. Workers are getting a fair shake today. Companies are more aware of the con- sumer these days. But many hard-nosed big business men wouldn't think twice to try to turn back the clock if they could. The thing to be remembered, however, is that there is no black and white. The unions and the consumer movement can be just as pronesinessmento mnd to d the bu. Forgettingistakesathat greecan ba es dangerous. THE BLYTH STANDARD, DECEMBER 6, 1978 — 5 Auburn welcomes new trustee James Glousher was wel- comed as the new village trustee last Saturday evening when the first meeting of the new year was held.

Dr. Roger Eickmeier a Stratford dentist, and his wife, Marie, of Dublin who completed in' August the building of a new - home in Logan Township on 50 . acres, appeared before the board to speak of their "problem with the Township of Logan". Dr. Eickmeier said his troubles started because the township did not like the location of their home on sideroad 30 and passed a. by-law not allowing a laneway entrance to a sideroad but must be to a concession road. He said provincial regulations do not hinder entry to or egress off a sideroad. He said the sideroad in the past has been open all year until last year after they had indicated they would be constructing a house on the property. Dr. Eickmeier said on the weekend the township put up a "road closed" sign at the end of their.. sideroad. The entranceway to their home is a half mile east up this sideroad. "We would like our little boys picked up at their gateway, not a half mile away at the concession road," he said. "They are five and seven years old.

He said he had himself snow removal equipment to keep it open. William Eckert, Director of Education, said that the driver had been instructed by the transportation committee not to enter the sideroad from concession 5 until the "road closed" sign was removed. The committee had reached this decision on October 18 after being informed the road would be closed. Why not open? Trustee Ronald Murray of Dublin asked, "Why do they (the township) not want to keep this road open?" Dr. Eickmeier–replied, "They said it would cost too much money. They gave us a cost of $60,000, indicating they would OFA -fee increase By Sheila Gunby The yearly fee for ISM membership (individual Service Membership) will be increased to $50.00 with a $5,00 reduction for those on automatic renewal.

He said the business people in Brodhagen had presented a petition to the township council asking that the road be kept open for them and other residents, "It's pretty obvious to us it is a grudge match between the reeve and myself. I don't know how it happened. But I have witnesses to prove there is." Trustee Ted Geoffrey of Zurich asked how many residents are living on the road. Dr, Eickmeier said "in the frist mile and a quarter out of Broadhagen, one family, my uncle, that road is open, in the second section our family, it is closed now.

Story and pictures by Keith Richmond PRIDE (Productive Rehabilitation and independent Development through Employ- ment) was established in 1977 to meet a community need - that many handicapped people have a potential to develop to a stage beyond the extensive training received at vocational rehabilitation centres, so that they may live up to the true level of their capabilities. This has been somewhat frustrating because there are so few available employment opportunities to meet this need. PRiDE has developed a small business enterprise in London to give an opportunity to the handicapped to pursue an industrial programme while giving then experience. PRiDE has employed physically, mentally and emotionally handicapped adults initially from London and the surrounding area. Some of these people were unemployed, others were underemployed because there are few places for them to go once they reach the "full assessment" stage of sheltered workshops. The PRIDE Multicap Foundation has been registered as a non-profit corporation without share capital. Its Board of Directors consists of twelve concerned citizens from the London community who have volun- teered their services and who are'respon- siblc for the affairs of the Foundation.

Ed was totally blinded in a tractor accident in 1973, At this time he was introduced to the Lions Leader Dog program. In 1974 he became the Public Relations Man for the Leader Dogs of Ontario. Ed wanted to return to the work force, but was unable to due to his handicap. He felt there must be others with the same feelings as himself, so he started to work to develop the now PRIDE Multicap Foundation. It took two and a half years for his dreams to cone true, He worked with concerned citizens who are now his Board of Directors. fliey were able to obtain federal funding for one year only. To make Ed's dream a success the foundation has to be self sufficient from now on. By purchasing these attractive seasonal products from local Lions people will be helping the handicapped to become tax- payers instead of tax burdens.

The shortage of volume in turn is reflected in earnings. The Gay Lea Foods Co-operative Limited once known as United Dairy and Poultry co-operative started with a handfull of members and now boosts 3,579' members, an increase of 28 over last . year. The concept was for farmers to co-operatively market their own products. .The Co-op buys the milk and cream for their five plants from the marketing boards, Only dairy farmers are members and they buy shares from the firm at ap- proximately $15. Over the past twenty years volume of products has moved up from the $15 million range to the $75 to $100 million range. The volume has also changed over the years. Gay Lea has moved out of poultry and egg processing into edible oil, special dairy products, cheeze and frozen food. CUT GROWTH "Supply management and the operations of marketing boards plus trends in consumption have inhibited growth in our traditional product lines." said Ed Brady general manager. "Our Concept of being a food marketing organization needs` to be broadened or widened to include the processin and marketing of other products that are produced on Ontario farms." "This can result is serving other groups of producers who are potential members and strengthen and broaden our member- ship base." said Mr. Bardy. Gay Lea was forced this year to consolidate their. Tara (Owen Sound) plant with their processing plant in Guelph. Tara ceased operation for a 7 month period from October 1977 to April 1978. The milk was transferred to Guelph. To Compensate for this loss Gay Lea has commenced pro- duction of a pharmaceutical product to keep the Tara Plant in operation. Gay Lea has just ' introduced a new product on the market, frozen yogurt for national distribution. The company has also negotiated to supply quantities of spray -dried food -base products utilizeing a high percentage of skimmilk solids, Both of these new products use quota -free milk. Gay Lea has' also started marketing butter in preportioned pats. A government decision to discontinue the 34c per pound consumer subsidy on instant milk powder caused a consumption decine of 25%. To offset this Gay Lea increased promotions and cheddar cheese sales. Representing dairy farmers were the dairy princesses Jean Siertsema, Huror and Debra Conebeare, Perth. "We (Gay Lea) have paid out maximum dividends allowed by the government" Mr. Hamel said. The board declared a dividens of 8% or $1,20 per share for the term ending, September 1978. Members also received a patronange dividend of 10c pet hectolitre on 80% of members milk and 2'/4 % per kilogram of butter fat on members fartn separated cream. Members elected delegates from the three districts for zone 1. For district No I which includes Guelph, Elora, Arthur, Mt. Forest, Grand Valley, Oragneville, Shelburne, Toronto and east were Authur Adie1 Elora, William McPhail, Woodville, and Joe Oostenhof, Grand Valley. For district 2 which includes Palmerston, Listowel, Mitchell, STratford, Elmira and area, elected were Ross Faulkner, Moore- field, William Pol, Monkton and William Mann, Monkton. For District 3 which includes Wingham, Goderich, Exeter, Seaforth, Lucknow, Strathoroy, and Woodstock, elected were William Dougall, Exeter, Harold Gaunt, Lucknow, Maurice Hallahan, Belgrave, Fred Meier, Brussels and Doug Fortune, Wingham. All delegates will serve a three year term and to qualify to stand must be a shareholder, a producer of milk, cream or eggs and have farming as his main occupation. Two directors were elected to represent zone 1. John Campbell, Bayfield for 3 years and Fred Meier, Brussels for 1 year. 12 -- THE BLYTH STANDARD, DECEMBER 6, 1978 By Gerry Fortune Governments distort markets and make policies for political expediency says John Sokol, eastern Ontario Beef Farmer and lecturer on food policy at York University.

Farmers must have profits to re -invest. No profits -- no food. It usually takes 12 years of apprenticeship to become a farmer according to Mr. Sokol. "It is probably more important to preserve our farmers, than our land," he said. ani isle st, * 0 4,1 0*.0**vviQ•****$44.*•*•* 0•tOt fift A A� 1 a� m �,. w , ,r, CHRISTMAS STORE HOURS OPEN ALL DAY WEDNESDAY IN DECEMBER Open until 9:00 p.m. The week before Christmas Saturday, Dec. 23olose at 6 p.m. saimulaiNDbumpablaix Crown Hardware Larone's Stationary Hetherington Shoes Seaforth Meat Market Seaforth Farmers' Co -o, ***.*.*.*.****,**. .. * •*0•*0** ***•*0** 0*00* This Year Shop In SEAFORTH The Town Where "Friendly Courteous Service " Aren't Forgotten Words.

A group representing 86 tenant associations across Metro Toronto has criticized this legislation, saying it would give landlords too much power to increase rents and leave too many tenants without protection from rent rises. The bi ••ould extend the six.;. • nt rent -control st rental accom- modatial' itil at least the end of i979, keep rent control unit the end of 1980, and overhaul landlord -tenant laws. The tenants' group criticizes proposed ex• emptions from rent review of housing units built after lannary 1, 1976, units for wind, the monthly rental is or more, and buildings of six units or less. In a ;,leech this week, Correc onal S •rvices M•nistet fordo:, Walker suggested that if 80 per cent of welfare recipients each worked twenty hours a week, the province would receive three million hours of •ommunity work a week in return for its $554 million annual welfare payments. However, Keith Norton, Minister of Community and Social Services, disagreed, and said he preferred his own proposals - encouraging welfare recipients to find jobs and paying them wh lc they adjust to their . new working lives. Outside the House, he said he favoured a positive approach more than "goind around bashing them because they're on welfare." The Chairman of Ontario's select committee on the Ombudsman resigned his post this week, in protest against the Government's lack of attention to the com- mittee's latest report. Michael Davison (MPP, Hamilton Centre) said it is "disgraceful and in- excusable" that only a single member of the provincial Cabinet attended from start to finish a Legislature debate Monday evening on , the committee report rcica:,cd November 9. The Ontario (i . 'rnment has introduced rec'islatior which would allow pituitary elands to hr rimnved during autopsies. This amendment to the ("."mer . Act .would allow the gland to be kept for preparation of an extract which corrects a Hormone deficiency which causes dwarfism in children, The Attorney -General told the House that the legislation, if it became law, would help between 100 and 200 Ontario children. The Ontario Cabinet ' has approved a report that re- commends the elimination, merger or other revision of 46 agencies, boards and com- missions - and now a former Cabinet minister's job is in jeopardy. The report, released this week, was prepared by a committee of four Con- servation members of the Legislature headed by Douglas Wiseman, minister without portfolio. Among the agencies af- fected are the Liquor Licence Appeal Tribunal and the Commercial Registration Appeal Tribunal. The report said the functions of the liquor tribunal should be taken over by the registration tribunal. Both agencies hear appeals from companies who have been denied licences, Former Cabinet minister John Yaremko was named chairman of the liquor licence appeal body in March, 1976, after he did not seek reelection in the 1975 provincial election. Mr. Wiseman made it clear to reporters outside the House that Cabinet has approved the report, and legislation to end some of the outdated or useless agencies will start appearing in the House as early. as next week. Complaints of excessive delays and inaccurate awarding of grants and loans in this year's Ontario Student Assistance Program generally are well.founded, Bette Stephenson, Minister of Colleges and Universities, said this week, Shc told the Legislature she has scheduled meetings with OSAP awards officers to discuss administration of ;the program, which involves at least $77 million in grants and about the'°same amount in interest-free loans. She tabled a report that said an unusual combination of circumstances in August stopped almost 3,500 students from receiving room -and -board allowances. n=======eigwav HURON BUSINESS MACHINES New location: 50 Albert Street, CLINTON 4$2.1338I.

The Federation has been pressing.government to com- pletely revamp the Petty Trespass Act.

Food shopping for the festivities needn't be overwhelming. But. it docs require thoughtful planning for entertaining family and friends. Keep it simple are tho three words of advice from the foods and nutrition specialists at the Home Economics Branch, Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food. Christmas preparations were more elaborate in the pat. But then, there were lots of helping hands! Holiday meals today are more casual. Yet there is still plenty of acitivity. And that is why planning is so important. Now that you have search - It's safe driving week Deaths, injuries down here In the first 8 months of this year 592 persons died and 50,308 were injured in motor vehicle accidents in Ontario, says Minister of Transpor- tation and Communications James Snow. "This is 30 fewer deaths and 602 fewer injuries than in the same period last year," Snow said, "but I feel we can do much better." "If Ontario drivers and pedestrians would observe the slogan of this year's Safe Driving Week, Dec, 1-7, "Courtesy is Caring", we might see a further drop in vehicle -related deaths and injuries." Snow thinks it is apt that this special safe driving week comes at a time of the year when unexpected snow, ice and fast -changing road conditions can` make for treacherous driving con. ditions, "That, coupled with the coning festive season and the temptation to drink and drive makes it necessary to be doubly alert as well as courteous," Snow said. "Pedestrians, too, can do their part, crossing only with the light at stoplight inter- sections, and by using cross- walks properly instead of jay -walking. "Courtesy and caring certainly go together," said Snow, "and 'this sense of involvement with other people should be. in the minds of every driver and pedestrian, not just during Safe Driving Week but every week of the year." " cd and finally found your traditional family recipes, it's time to decide which you want to use so you can plan accordingly. It then becomes an easy matter to plan what is to be served," when to do the shopping, how to prepare the goodies and to whom they will be served. The why is easy—to share the hospital- ity and warmth that comes with the season. Christmas is probably unsurpassed in providing a vast array of foods, While we really don't want to be reminded of calories this time of year, why not plan to put out a bowl of fruit as a refreshing alternative to rich desserts. , Ag minister switches Will allow agrominiums Ontario's minister of'Agri- culture changed his mind on the contentious issue of agrominiums. Under questioning on the subject at the breakfast meeting of the Ontario Federation of Agri- culture last week, Wm, New- man admitted that he has agreed to a licence for a pilot project. Farmers in Simcoe County have strenously objected to an agrominium in West Gwillembury Township. They claim that it is just a Jisguise for urban develop - mut. The O.F.A. has sup- )orted their position. An agrominium is a sort of commune where a developer divides a hundred acre farm into ten acre lots, and puts ten houses on it, The owners supposedly will continue to farm the remaining 90 acres and from the profit pay the mortgage. The farmers see the future ;as ten lots with some horses or weeds, and many complaints about the normal farming operations of the regular farmer. Mr. Newman said at the breakfast meeting that the licence would, not be given in the originally intended Simcoe Township.

BLYTH STANDARD, DECEMBER 6, 1978 — 19 Farm groups run Canfarm The federal government has approved in principle the sale of Canfarm, the computerized accounting service, to a co-operative of farm organization, Peter Hannam announced at the recent O.F.A. Convention, The co-operative will include a representative each from the Maritimes, Quebec, the Western provinces, O.F.A., Co-operator's Insurance, Credit Union, Co-op Union of Canada and two persons appointed by the Canadian Federation of Agriculture. "We have to improve Can - farm, which includes simplifying it so farmers can more easily utilize the system, and there are pro- posals for an improved marketing program to include franchising the ser- vice", said Hannam. The basic fee for the service would be about $75.00, with other charges being based on what services are used by the farm. The O.F.A. is committed to contributing up to $25,000. towards the venture. Eugene Whelan, Federal Minister of Agriculture, has stated that the federal government will help the funding during the UFA will help foreign farms By Gerry Fortune Gordon Hill, Varna area farmer, announced the formation of an Agri -Skills Abroad Committee of the Ontario Federation of Agri- culture. In answer to a question from Jack Stafford, Wroxeter area farmer, Mr. Hill stated there are two projects in other lands being considered by O.F.A. O.F.A. will consider sponsoring a young farmer from Ghana wishing to come to Canada to learn about agriculture here. It was pointed out that the most modern farming methods are not necessarily those which will be of the most use to this man. Smaller and less mechanized farm operations would possibly be more suit- able for this type of educational project. County Federations are now ac- cepting names of those in- terested in hosting a farmer from Ghana, A feasibility study of a Costa Rica Village for abandoned children will be undertaken. A first village which has its own bakery and which also sells eggs and vegetables is already operating successfully. A second village is in the planning stages. Each village occupies 50 acres of land and consists of 12 houses with 10 children and house parents in each house. O.F.A will be looking for a person to go to Costa Rica to study markets and recommend what kind of crops could be produced in conjunction with the villages. Ontario asked to check land ownership By Adrian Vos The properties Committee fo the Ontario Federation of Agriclture expressed their concern about a reported increase of foreign owner- ship of farmland in Ontario, by passing a resolution asking the Ontario Govern- ment to implement "without delay" an inventory of foreign ownership. The OFA also wants to know the farmland holdings of "non-farm Candian corporations". Without dissent it was agreed that it may be necessary to regulate non - resident ownership, Farmers also wanted to be sure when they trade in their old implement, that in case of breakdown, a spare implement will be available to continue operations. problems.

The new co-operative is expected to take over the service on Jan, 1, 1979. "Negotiations with the producer group are well underway," Mr. Whelan said, The government has in- dicated its willingness to provide the new owners with initial backing and support through existing programs. It is expected that Canfarm Co -Operative Services would be selfsupporting within three years. The Minister said he expects the negotiations will soon be completed, and that farmers will be able to continue to use the services provided by the agency, Canfarm provides •three main services, First is Farm Records, providing a farm accounting system.

Chap wants to do a television shortie about me. 1 hae me doots about agreeing, 1 have deep suspicions about that particular medium, and a very low regard for the vast majority engaged in its machinations. First of all, TV is one of the most pernicious influences on the imaginations and vocabularies of the young, to whom 1 am trying to teach the subtleties and beauties and clarities of the English language. There is almost nothing to stretch the: mind, to titillate the senses, to improve the language. Most television drama is one- dimensional. It's laid out flatly before you. The language is brutalized. Suspense is childish, Acting is insensitive. And if', once in a blue moon, there is an intelligent, supsenseful, sensitive and imaginative piece of work on the screen, the mood is constantly shattered by noisy beer ads, or distasteful commercials about ring around the collar or underarm deodorant. It's a pity. Television, in the right hands, could become. the most warming, enlighten- ing, enlargi. g experience in the lives of many people, aside from their personal experience with other human beings, But 90 per cent of it is garbage, aimed at the intelligence of a slow six-year-old. The tinny, artificial "applause." The evcr- increasint_,, sexual innuendo, The constant shouting of so-called comedians. The dull and clerk ...ive dance routines, The blatting and of rock groups. And perhaps worst of all, those insane, greedy game shows. !, is literal fact that I can scarce refrai., -growing up when 1 come across one of t us( • with the bellowing master of ceremoni..... the fawning of contestants, and the idiotic audiences. You know, when television began, it had a good many flaws, but most of them were technical. At the sante time it had a vitality and reality that swept all before them. Drama was done live, and we had such great plays as Padd Chayefsky's Marty. Compare that reality and pathos with the slobbering, sugar -encrusted stuff like The Waltons. Compare shouting, leering Lav-. erne and Shirley, or the late unlamented Maude .With the great comics of the early clays: Art Varney and Jackie Gleason, Sid Ccasar .:u1 Imogene Coca. You can't. There I5 Il(1 comparison, Perhaps it's because the big poobahs of television have treated their massive midi.- epees udi-epees with more contempt than any other tnadium has ever, done, including Holly- wood of the big studios, And those appearing on television re- spond like fawning puppets. I ockey players get into needless fights so that they can display the big macho on the screen. Football players don't just score a touch- down any more, and leave it at that. They do a dance, or they bounce the ball hard off the ground and run around with their arms up in self-congratulation, Learned and intelligent professors allow themselves to be made ridiculous by rhetorical questions from ignorant inter- viewers. Politicians allow themselves to be chivvied by churlish reporters, just to get their images on the boob tube. Talented people in shoe business will appear on the screen with an ape or an alligator, and allow themselves to be insulted by a late -night -show MC, just to get in the picture. Only very occasionally docs someone with great powers of articulation and a certain inborn arrogance, someone like Malcolm Muggcridge, manage to break through the banality of the typical television interviewer. Only rarely does an interviewer, someone like Patrick Watson, break through the carefully guarded porridge of the inter- viewee. With very few exceptions docs a news reporter depart from a delivery as monot- onous as a metronome. The National, Canada's 11 o'clock news, 11:30 in Newfie, is about as exciting as a funeral service. We had smarmy Lloyd Robertson with the oiled tonsils, reading the news as though it were the phone book. 'Flume had contemptuous Peter Kent, who gave the impression that he was doing us a favour. 'These days we have dull old solid, stolid George MacLean, who delivers the news as though it were a warmed-over pot -roast. Which it is, on most occasions. In short, TV is dull, dull, dull, I have great sympathy for two groups in our society. O n c is the oldsters and shut-ins, who have so little left in their lives, and rely on television for a diversion, something to take the mind away from the aches and pains and the loneliness. What they get is a combination of the utmost pap and crap that only a sadist could devise: cheap, ancient, Grade C movies; soap operas; sickening game shows. And the other group that gets my sympathy is young children. With a few exceptions, such as Sesame Street, all they have to watch is pictorial pablum, great, uplifting epics , like The Flinlstones, or violent and bloody movies. What a pity, when the medium could educate their minds, stir their senses with color and music, ;Inc! send their imaginations soaring. Andy Warhol, a New York pop artist, said everyone eventually will be a celebrity for fifteen minutes, If that's the case, include me out. The TV chap told me it would take only two hours of my time to slake a two minute epic about me and my column. I have no particular desire to look like a turkey for two minutes and spend the next two days feeling like one, LOCAL DELEGATES Bill Pullen, Morris Twp.; John VanBeers, Hullet Twp.; John Benjamins, Hullet Twp.; Mery Smith, McKillop Twp. were delegates to the annual convention of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture held in Hamilton, Nov. 27-29.

Hannam says province May make farmers endangered species By Brenda McIntosh The Ontario Government's Policies could make farmers an endangered species, Peter Hannam. President, Ontario Federation of A giriculture said at the OFA's 42 Annual Convention. Hannam said the Provincial Govern- ment's half-hearted corn- mitment to agricull,'ure has forced farmers to live in a pressure cooker., One example of the low priority placed on agriculture is the Ontario Government has allowed urbanites to impose.their life style on rural Ontario. "City people who move to the Country think they are moving into a park. Before long they are trying to stop odours, noises, drainage projects, machinery on the roads and other necessary farm activities. Farming could be severely restricted beyond all reason in the most productive areas of the pro- vince, unless the Govern - met agencies don't have to live up to the same land use planning guidelines as farmers, and they clutter the countryside with garbage dumps, hydro generating sit es, gravel pits, transmis- sion corridors and pipelines. Farmers have demonstrated their commitment to Agri- culture by their investment in their industry to produce all the food we can sell. Government commitment has been half-hearted in acting on our Convention Resolutions. Farm Machinery Legislation has been refused by the Pro- vincial Government. Ontario farmers should have the same protection given in other Provinces. Hannam said Ontario's half-hearted commitment to agriculture was also evident in their economic priorities. He pointed out, "In 1978, one automobile manufacturer - Ford - re- ceived government subsidies for establishing one plant in Windsor. Those subsrdtes were over seventy million dollars. That amounts to nearly half the entire agri- cultural budget for all of Ontario last year. Hannam called on both the Federal and Provincial Governments to change Send UNICEF Cards Established 1876 McKILLOP MUTUAL FIRE INSURANCE -COMPANY HEAD OFFICE: 10 MAIN ST:, SE/WORTH, ONT Mrs. Margaret Sharp, Sec.
