Egg vote defeated Huron County egg producers turned down a proposed market- ing plan by mere percentage points last week, but their counterparts in Ontario voted more strongly against it and the idea was defeated. Some 330 Huron producers vot- ed and 66.06 percent were in fa- vor of the plan which would have given the Ontario Egg and Fowl Producers Marketing Board the power to set marketing quotas and eventually establi s h an agency to sell all eggs. However, the percentage in On- tario favoring the plan was just over 50 percent and a majority of two-thirds was required. Huron is the second largest producer among Ontario coun- ties. Of the Huron voters, 135 had between 0 to 499 birds, 68 had from 500 to 999, 59 had from 1,000 to 4,999, 36 from 5,000 to 9,999 and 31 had from 10,000 and over. Statistics at June 1966 showed Huron with 1,888,714 hens and chickens.

The government should com- pensate farmers for crop loss from weather, the same way it compensates them for animals killed to stop the spread of dis- Beef plan is okayed Ontario Liberals swung their weight behind the government to force the Beef Cattle Marketing Act through third reading by a 78-15 vote April 10. The act sets a marketing fee to be collected on behalf of the Ontario Beef Improvement As- sociation, the fee, varying from 5 to 15 cents, will return about $125,000 annually to the assoc- iation. Vernon Singer (L. Downsview) led bitter opposition through sec- ond reading because the authority for collection of fees was to be in regulations rather than the act itself. Agriculture Minister Wil- liam Stewart produced a new version including fees which passed the committee stage and came to third reading after fur- ther bitter opposition, mainly from the New Democratic Party. Murray Gaunt (L. Huron Bruce) said that his party would not support the NDP amendment, which would have killed the bill, because there were many good things in it the party did not want to lose. He did not say what the good things were but described them as "the sugar on top of the vinegar." Mr. Stewart accused the NDP of opposing the bill on behalf of the Ontario Farmers Union. He said the rebate that farmers can claim on their fees will provide a continuing check on the ac- ceptability of the legislation. The minister said dairy farm- ers market some cattle for beef purposes when they are of no further use in the dairy industry. Rebates to these men would not reflect- the feeling of the beef cattle industry. By MRS.

Stewart, the Feder- ation says the grain fanner "has no more control over whether it will rain. than the beef farmer has over Whether some can or corned beef coming into the country will bring hoof and mouth disease." The brief say most cases of disease of infestation are traced to the irresponsible actions of a person or agency, The public underwrites the loss, "Society has evidently de- cided that losses like this should not fall on the owner of the animals." "In loss of crops from weather, 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 alternative to comprehensive crop insurance. But it says the current program is too narrow and preminms are too high for it to protect the farmers ade- quately. Interviewed after meeting the minister, OFA President, Charles Munro said farmers would be glad to hear the, govern,- !Pent will consider lower levels of insurance for props, The Federation Piiggesteci it Po a farmer could buy insurance on part of his Posts—such as the cost of Seed and fertilizer Only,-, and the minister said his depart- ment liked the idea. Mr. Munro said the Federation', will continue to press for re- duced coverage at lower costs until it is available, The brief follows two years of bad weather in much of smith- ern Ontario, It says farmers ""who were dried out in 1966 were 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 quarter of the farm- ers have incomes 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 poor- er farmers) is half the com- mercial farmers In the pro- vince."
