We would also take this, opportunity to extend congratulations to the Ward en and members of the Bruce County Council who have receiv- ed. the honour of representing their municipalities at county level.

Service Members of the .Ontario Federation of Agriculture and we plan to increase our membership to: '1,500 by the end of 1974. , In Ontario there are now over, 18,000 iSM's , an, increase of 6,000 in the past year , and we plan to in- crease Our members to 26,-000 by year end. • Farmers represent less than 5% of the total Ontario population, but with this solid niembership we are striving to insure that" farmers get levels of return to labour , cap ital and Management comparable to other sectors of society: We want to see a prodUctive and efficient farming industry , but it should be based, on family con- trolled and operated enterprises: This type' of work' within the Fed- eration is carried on to the benefit of all farmers , whether memberS of the Federation Or not. Bruce County Federation of Agriculture welcomes the organiz- ing of the two Bruce County planning boards. With proper farmer representation we feel that the interests of the agricultural sector will be upheld. We hope that the Federation will have a', member on this board in 1.975.

Commitee is working with farmers °in different paits of the 'province. TheSe committees have met several times with Ontario Hydro but it was decided that there was not enough information avairable in regard to corridors; of this size. So 92 property owners in Bruce and Huron chipped in $100.00. each, with help from 0'.F..A: a Firm of EValuators were engaged to survey this route and correspond ing corridors wherever they could be found. Thit'report is now in the comtrnitee's hands and will be used in future negotiation. ' Presently we are waiting for the Ontario Inquiry Board to announce the dates, of inquiry into the right to expropriate the route selected. We are presently setting up the machinery to carry out the Home- stead Improvement Contests, which will be held as part of the Bruce County International Plow- ing Match in 1676. To further improve the cornmun icatiOns between the farmers and the Federation we are - publishing a quarterly newsletter. Again in the past year we have elped to solve many farmers problems. We alSo snpport the, Ontario Federation of Agriculture in their various programs such as: 1. Updating the line fences act. 2. Increasing Capital Grants. .. Canadian feed grain policy. 4. Government assistance for poi- lutiion control equipment. — 5.1 Review of building code of praetice.
