Page E Yeti The Ontario -Energy Board has been asked by the Ontario Federation of Agriculture to take under consideration sev- eral important requests dealing with amendments to the gas and oil leases act, payments to land- owners with regards to the use of existing wells for natural gas storage, and the terms and conditions of gas and oil leases, The OFA presentation stems :from geueral concern among landowners in the petroleum producing areas of the province, where the companies holding gas and oil leases have begun the practice of using existing wells for the storage of natural gas, which is brought into the area from outside sources. This new practice, the federa- tion feels, has outdated most of the agreements which provide only for the holding of existing resources until needed by the company leasing the property, and it has requested that the gas and oil leases act be a- mended in suck a way as to pro- SPECIAL Discounts on beef and dairy concentrates UNTIL DEC, IS Cash in on this 'get acquaint, cd' offer and convert your full granary into extra profits with A to-op balanced feeding pro- grain.

The energy board was also asked to consider some method of protecting the landowner from increased property assess- ment when the areas beneath his property are used for gas storage. It was an OFA recom- mendation that these storage areas be the taxable assets of the renting company, and that any payments to the landown- er for storage be nets and not subject to either mineral or property taxation. The presentation also dealt with a number of specifics in- volving: (a) Requests for damages and expenses arising from com- pany operations on the farm; (b) The removal of all sur- plus soil and debris from farm lands and the restoration to its former state of production as soon as possible after explora- tion and drilling; (c) Provision for the termi- nation of all leases wherein the leasing company has failed to live up to the terms of the contract; (d) That all pipes shall be laid at such a depth as not to obstruct drainage systems or ordinary cultivation practices; Club plans coin show many valuable collections.

Russell Bradford, dairy field- man for Huron Couty, says: Among On t a r i o counties, Huron now ranks third for cow production. According to the latest publication on agricultu- ral statistics there are over 40,000 cows kept mainly for milk purposes in Huron County. Dairying is gaining in im- portance and there is every in- dication for such a trend to con- tinue in Huron, The existing milk quality con- trol program for all Ontario, supported by regulations made under the Milk Industry Act, is demanding more exacting tech- niques of milk production. In or- der to be successful the dairy- man must make the fullest use of every new or improved meth- od applicable to' dairying. The dairyman is becoming more and more a specialist in his opera- tion, One of the attributes of a suc- cessful dairyman is that he must be a good "tow man." We often hear that "watehamacal, lit" is a. good "cow man," What makes a man this way? Well, here are a few things they have in common— By DON FAIRBAIRN The day before the Ontario mil k producers' provisional marketing board held its final meeting, the cheese producers' board (who were also repre- sented on the provisional over- all board) presented a brief to the minister of agriculture ask- ing the provincial government to "rescind the legislation which protects whole milk shippers and gives them an un- fair advantage over other milk producers in the province," This change would give many other farmers who are present- ly producing grade A milk an opportunity to participate in the lucrative bottled milk trade, according to the cheese producers, and would greatly assist in the elimination of dairy surpluses. Cheese producers—and some other milk producers—are afraid the recently announced 19 per cent per ewt, price in- crease to producers (which is not yet in effect) could 'reduce the consumption of fluid milk and thereby increase current surpluses. If retail prices went up, it is possible people -might drink less milk and the cheese producers brief says Ontario's whole milk producers already "have added greatly to the teats snaps like a rubber band either, (3) They are reasonably reg- ular in their milking times. (4) They find out what they need to put in the front end to get milk out of the bottom end — and, they put it there — if they've got it. (5) They feed dry cows and heifers as though they were go- ing to milk eventually -and don't discount them because — for the time being — they aren't rililking (6) They do all they can to make Bess comfortable, No lice, plenty of bedding, reason- ably warm, plenty of water, plenty of light and some folks are even giving her 4 feet '1 inches stanchion room which she needs.

(8) Most good "cow men" have to dry off old Bess, other- wise old Bess takes care of it herself. Good "cow men" keep cows milking and never take the chance that causes a drop. Chances like --(a) Cows hud- dling up in the winter cold, Wind and snow; (b) using a cow-dog that cannot be called off; (e) running out of grain Sunday morning at 5:45 a.m,; (d) leav- ing the barn door unlatched on.

Whole -milk shippers will deny this and there are. no figures available to support either contention. The Ontario Farmers' Union has criticized the government's moratorium on the formula price increase because pro- duction costs are going tip and they feel farmers are entitled to a price increase, Feed costs alone have gone tip six cents per cwt.. of The cheese -producers also Display articles at Kirkt©n club By MRS.

From time to time nutrition- ists and economists compare the proportion of the nations food supply derived from each commodity group with the pro- portion of the consumers dollar spent for each food group. Dairy foods rank at the top of such comparisons because, while on- ly a fifth of the food dollar is spent for dairy foods consider- ably more than a fifth of the to- talc04) nutrients in the national food supply is derived from dairy f Consumers in Ontario are very fortunate to be blessed with an -ample supply of whole- smite safe dairy foods. maintain that surplus fluid at plies for the fluid trade, Also since representatives of fluid producers assured the federal government they would devise a marketing plan. that "would establish a voluntary system of helping to eliminate surplus dairy products" which has not been done, the cheese produc- ers would like to have the Ontario government take action. The cheese group also an. nounced support for recom- mendations in the 'MacFarlane, Wood, Carneross report on milk marketing made early in 1961. They would also like to have the four dairy producer groups presently in existence retained under any milk mar- keting- plan. Continue feed policy ` Representatives of the east- ern agricultural conference who come from the Maritime and Ontario Federations of Agricul- ture, the -LCC, Co-op Federee and Farmers' Association of Quebec had a meeting with the federal minister of agricul- ture last week, They- pressed for a continuation of the federal feed assistance policies and their extension to Ontario corn and wheat. The big problem, according to this group, is the inadequate movement of feed grains into eastern Canada - before the close of navigation which re- sults in higher prices to farm- ers during the winter months. They would like the federal government to offer some as- sistance on storage charges at the lakehead and on grain stocks still not sold in eastern Canada by the opening of navigation. Agriculture Minister Hamil- ton has announced the govern- ment's intention to introduce new policies concerning stor- age of feed grains. The conference also request ed programs to stimulate beef production in eastern Canada, reinstatement of the $3.00 hog premium and the full program of lime assistance, stricter con- trol of garbage feeding of hogs to prevent hog cholera. quarterly, rather than annual deficiency payments on lambs and reduction in freight rates between western and eastern Canada. They also asked the federal, minister for some spec- ial help for maritime -farmers who had the worst weather in their history -this year and suffered disastrous losses in hay and other crops.

He was confident that the re- organization being discussed would work to the advantage of the producers. Mr. Biggs said that the beef producers were handicapped owing to the fact that the as- sociation did not have a broad membership and lacked a per- manent office and full-time secretary. "This proposal is a result Of requests from your own mem- bers who are telling us more should be done for your in- dustry. We are not suggesting that you should have such and such an organization. That is a decision for you to make. We merely hope to assist," said the deputy minister. "Re- organization along the lines suggested would place the de- partment in a first class posi- tion to help the industry, ' The Ontario Beef Producers' Association has recommended to its county associations the acceptance of the proposal of Hon. Wm. A, Stewart, Minis- ter of Agriculture, that the beef producers organize along the lines of the Ontario Soil and Crop Improvement As- sociation. Following considera- tion of the suggestion on a county basis the proposal will go before the annual menting of the producers to be next year.- The minister of agile 'tire suggested .that the reorganiza- tion would stimulate the work of the beef producers. Under the new set-up, the department would provide financial assist- ance and the services of a full-time secretary. It has also been suggested that the name of the association be changed to the Ontario Beef Producers Improvement Association, Discussing the reorganiza- tion. President L. B. Melen- bacher said that the associa- tion had. no desire for a mar- keting plan although he would not -for a moment say that such an approach was not de- sirable for certain other farm products. He was sure that the beef producers could develop an organization which would allow them to operate without outside help, Offering the assistance of the department of agriculture, Everett M. Biggs, deputy min.' inter, said that he was aware of the responsibility of the de- partment to all segments of agriculture. He suggested that if production techniques were not improved the producers could not achieve the market- ing results that they wanted. (1) They never hurry, hit or holler at a cow.
