The funds will be used to as- sure farmers a return on their investment and labor in line with other segments of the economy, Mr. Robarts said, The action follows recommen- dations by a recent conference at Nemptville, attended by nearly 300 representatives of 92 food and agriculture industry organiz- ations, departments of the pro- vincial government and the fed- eral agriculture and trade de- partments. The conference was sparked by a preliminary report of the special committee on farm in- efroft Rorie By D. G. Inglis, Extension Assistant for Huron County. The harvesting of spring grains in Huron County has started in several areas. Yields in these areas seem to be average or slightly above average but where lodging appeared, the grain didn't fill and thus yields are down somewhat there. Due to bad wea- ther early in the season, some fields of spring grains were planted much later than others. Therefore some will not be mature for two weeks or so. The acreage of white beans is down slightly in the county due to the wet spring. The crop is beginning to turn in colour and is maturing quite favourably. The corn crop has progressed rapidly after a slow start due to cold, wet weather but requires more hot, sunny days to bring it along in maturity. Yields here look promising also. Some second cut hay has been taken in and is of very good quality. • come established last October by William Stewart, provincial agriculture minister. The committee report called for an intensive study into all aspects of the industry, includ- ing the effectiveness of exist- ing programs and policies. Mr. Robarts said; ,,The ne- cessity of interprovincial co- operation and liaison with the federal government in such mat- ters cannot be over-stressed. Balkanized solutions will just not work. ((It was most gratifying dur- ing the first nine months of the Ontario committee's work to have the close co-operation and understanding of both the province of Manitoba and the province of Quebec." The new grant would enable the committee to continue its work and bring in cg early,' re- commendations to boost the in- come of Ontario farmers, Advise jackets while at water Stricter enforcement of regu- lations on wearing life jackets and a research project to develop a convenient life jacket for men working near water in hot weather were recommended by a coron- er's jury in Goderich, Friday. The jury was inquiring into the death of Vernon Oesch, RR 2 Zurich, drowned along with Mi- chael Maloney, Bayfield, while working on a construction job in Bayfield harbor. Mr. Oesch fell into the water while working on the pier and struck his head on a steel bar. Maloney jumped into the water after him, but by the time another worker returned with a life pre- server, both men had slipped under the water. Testimony revealed neither of the drowning victims was wearing life jackets, although the company had provided them. By MRS. W.
