Representatives of the
Huron County Federation of
Agriculture and the Huron County
Pork Producers recently pre-
sented briefs to the Huron County
Development Committee-and met
with a favourable receptIon.
The briefs were presented by
Jack Stafford, president, and
Mason Bailey, vice president on
`behalf of the Federation and by
James McGregor and Lloyd SAg.W-
art, president and secretary
resTiectively on behalf of the
Hog producers.
The Federation representat-
ives in their brief said: -
''Mr. Chairman and Members
of County Development Commit-'
tee, we thank you for once again
-1 inviting the Huron County Feder-
ation of Agriculturetp this annual
event to express our views and"
ideas on behalf of Huron County
farmers.
' There are several matters
we are ,concerned with which we
feel should be supported by Huron
County0Copcil. You will recall
that in' oul•• submission a year
ago, we requested your support to
'bring about equalization of.
education taxes. MuCti has been
accomplished since then to
relieve farm taxpayers of this
burden. However, the system of
taxing for education financing
has not been changed. We still

have the situation whereby those
who enlarge or improve their en-
terprises are assessed for more
education taxes. We feel that this
method penalizes initiative. Also
we bad hoped that urban people
would also be considered in any
equalization of this tax. The
Ontario Federation of
Agriculture is continuing to press
Government for . complete
equalization of education taxes.
May we again solicit your support
in this effort?
"Anther matter that we feel
is important to our County is the
need of more off-farm industry
in our towns. Our young people
cannot all work at agriculture,
but it seems to us that there
should be more ,opportunity for
employment, in Huron County.
Most of .the produce of our farms
is shipped elsewhere for proces-
sing. Could we not find more
effective methods of promoting
development of industry related
to agriculture? With the trend to
mechanization on farms,' our
population can only decline unless
there are other opportunities for
employment.
"We are also interested in
the proposal of RegionalGovern-
meht. We are quite skeptical as
to the benefits of .this, type -of
administration in our area. There
is' reason to believe that more
control of our affairs would move
into' the hands of people who are
not very-concerned with agricul-
tural problems. Our present'sYs-
tem may have weaknesses, but we
are of the opinion . that the
:proposed change may have
greater weaknesses. •Perhaps if
• councillors were better paid at
the local. level there would be
rnor__incentize...tabetter..a.dln i nis:„
tration. 'Local Councillors . are
expeeted to spend considerable
time on public affairs for very
small return, . compared to
administrative people in other
capacities. • We•recommend that
any change in method of adminis-
tration of pUblic affairs be ap-
proached very cautiously and that
the public be kept .very Well in-
formed and allowed to voice their
opluion*pn the matter before any
changes are made.
"Sometime ago you were re-
quested.. to.' support-a resolution
regarding the importation of
Australian beef into. Canada. We
were disappointed in your decis-
ion to 'not support this resolution.
We' are of the opinion that HUron
County Farmers cannot compete
with Australian farmers in the
production of beef. There is no
...agricnitural product produced in
Canada that cannot be produced
cheaper elseviihere. What is to
become of this important indus-
try if we cannot find means of
supporting the individuals who
must show a -profit to remain in
business? Hu'ron. County
particular cannot afford to allow
its' largest industry to decline.
Without agriculture, what would
this County live on? The economic
situation has become very
serious on many farms and
farmers- must have the support
of allot us who represent farmers
if prosperity is to be maintained.
The sugar-beet Industry disap-
pearedfrom Ontario because of
lack of support. Now sugar is
more expensive than when we
were producing sugar inOntario.
This can happen to other com-
modities if we do not protect our
industry. We recommend that a
reconsideration be given by this
Council to support the resolut-
ion to restrict importation of
Australian beef.
"Cotild we also bring to your
attention 'the matter of pollution
from animal wastes. %appears
that this may become a serious
problem in the future and we
emphasize that we feel that any
prilicy adopted should protect in-
. nocent individuals from unneces-
sary penalties. We reopoize the
need, of controls but recommend
that as much protection as pos-
sible be available to farmers with
existing' enterprises who are
caught in a,situation arising from
circumstances beyond their con-
trol. +
"Same consideration might
also be given to the changing
needs of society where education.
is concerned. It appears that a
saturation point has been reahed
in the academic; fiend's-61-endear
your. More emphasis on technical
courses might well 'be a realistic
move. We recommend that a .$
change be a practical approach
to practiCA1 things be considered
by, our-school board and council."
In the Hog producers brief the
spokesmen presented three sug-
gestions and one criticism.
• This brief said: -
'•We believe that the residents
of Huron County should be better
informed anclhave more available
knowledge of what-the different
county committees, are perform-
ing for then-i inprograrhs, polic-
ies and deciSions within. their
elected year. These reports of
county activities should be per-
formed by someone within ,the
county.' office and 'sent to the'
press, radio, etc. arid therefore
the pu,t31.1e—would not be confused
v
Witt unrealistic quotations and
personal opinions within county
business that we are subject to
now.
"The Pork Producers also
recom mend that the county pre-
sent an urban and agricultural
development building program
plan to be made, available as soon
as possible to all livestock and
agricultural producers, as to the
foreseeable future growth of
Huron County.' The model n live-
stock or agricultural units that-
are being built_ today and in the
future are all very complex in
design, size and expense. These
units cannot be planned for just
one generation but two, therefore
producers should know the plans
for their area as to thetlife,
usefulness of these units are
worth in 'particular near urban
areas:
'"Another suggestion we pro-
pose is that the county along with
the townships study the possibil-
ity of erecting traffic signs at all
concession and cross roads in
the county. With the increase of
'traffic of cars, trucks and farm
machinery, we are witnessing an
increase in accidents and deaths
at cross roads. With the
knowledge that we all protect the
one _on the right at cl-oss roads,
we feel this is not good enough
with increase of traffic at faster
speeds, concealed cross roads
with crops, etc.
"Most towns now have signs
on back streets, why notontowrF
ship concessions?"
