FARM NEWS The government should com- pensate farmers for crop loss from weather, the same way it compensates them for animals killed to stbp the spread of dis- ease, says the Ontario Federa- tion of Agriculture. In a brief to Agriculture Minister, W. A. Stewart, the Federation says the grain far- mer "has no more control oyer whether it will rain, than the beef farmer has over whether some can of corned beef earn- ing into the country will bring hoof and mouth disease." The brief says most cases of disease of infestation are traced to the irresponsible actions of a person or agency. The 'public underwrites the lots. "Society has evidently de- cided that losses like this should not fall on the owner of the animals". "In loss of crops from wea- ther, society has traditionally taken the opposite stand. The farmer takes the risk." The Federation says it isn't asking for a hand-out or an al- ternative to comprehensive crop insurance. But it says the cur- rent program is too narrow and premiums are too high for it to protect the farmer adequat- ely. . Interviewed after meeting the '-`• minister, OFA President, Charl- es Munro said farmers would be glad to hear the government will consider lower levels of in- surance for crops. The Federation suggested it so a farmer could buy „insurance on part of his costs—ch as the cost of seed and fertilizer /only— and the minister Said his dep- artment liked the idea. Mr. Munro said the Federat- ion -will continue to press for reduced coverage at lower costs until it is available. The brief follows two years of bad weather in much of Southern; Ontario. It says far- mers, 'who were dried out in 1966yere drowned out in 1967". It Says the farmers appreciate the $5,000 loans the government offers to help weather damage victims. But it says many farm- ers can't afford one such loan, let alone two. Only a quarte r of the farmers have incomes of over $10,000. giving a net of about 3,000 or more. It says these farmers might afford the burden of re- paying the debt, but the poorer farmers certainly couldn't. "And yet this group (the poo- rer farmers) is half the comm- ercial farmers in the province". HENSALL The annual meeting of Hen - salt WI was held , Wednesday evening. in the Legion Hall with president Mrs. Clarence Reid presiding. Business communica- tions were dealt with and the roll call was answered by join- ing again for another year. Mrs. R. M.
