T-A photo Need good farm management to feed future population Mr. Bennett emphasized that it is vital to improve the energy efficiency in vegetable greenhouse production because of the extremely high energy costs involved and the growing public demand for out-of-season fruits and vegetables. The Ministry wants to find The Right Reverend David Ragg, Bishop, Diocese of Huron Anglican Church, who attended the world food conference in Rome last year addressed delegates of the National Far- mers. Union at their regional meetings held at the University of Guelph earlier this week. Bishop Ragg told delegates of his disappointing experiences with the delegates at the World Food Conference held at Rome, however, our Canadian Minister he stated was as disappointed with the delegates as he was for the same reasons. The meeting that was intended to discuss the problems of food distribution across the world was spent, with the exception of one day, on arguing and disagreeing on corporate interest instead of what it should have been, the issue of feetlingthe hungry people of the world. According to Bishop Ragg farmers are theimost important people in the world because of their knowledge and skill to produce food, stating his own effort of growing green beans in his garden plot, good soil and with the proper fertilizer was a failure because of his lack of knowledge. Farmers must be properly rewarded for their work, instead of having to bear the burden of inflation as it is in the present time. The feeding of the world is a corporate responsiblity of which the government must be made aware of by the people stated Bishop Ragg. Speaking on land-use Bishop Ragg strongly criticised the Ontario Government for their lack of action on protecting the good farmland in Ontario, stating that their own Agriculture Minister William Stewart had made the statement that with the present situation where agriculture land is being buried under brick and cement, 60 percent of the food will have to be imported by the year 2000, According to Bishop Ragg Ontario can freeze land for hydra; roads; parks and other recreation but it pays only lip service to preserve farmland to allow for speculation and profiteering in real estate transactions. He also warned farmers in Kent who received theirrequestof re-routing the hydro power line along 401 that this action was only an election gimmick and the decision could easily be revesed since it had been changed four times already. Bishop, Ragg went on to state the dangers of nuclear power stations to the environment, and the production of food, besides taking away productive farmland when built along Lake Erie as proposed by Ontario Hydro. The big consumer in South Western Ontario who is in need of the extra power is no one less than our border state the U,S.A. according to Bishop Ragg. As Canadians we must take responsibility and protect our own productive land by not allowing this to happen, he fur- ther stated that Ontario Hydro has not done the necessary research to know the dangers of nuclear power plants and in fact had done little or no research at all.

In this project, the major emphasis will be on studying various drying systems with alterations in propane and oil burners, and in the systems of grain and air movement, Microwave usage will also be examined. The Ministry sees the potential, for energy-use reduction as beings up to 25 percent in Ontario's tobacco kiln drying systems, with the modification of existing curing equipment, or the im- plementation of new con- servation intensive technology. Methods of improved heating and ventilation systems in farm buildings will be studied, par- ticularly in intensive poultry and swine operations. Another project will be the evaluation of the energy efficiency of a variety of field tillage and hay harvesting and storage systems. The research projects are being undertaken at the University -of Guelph, the Hor- ticultural Research Institute of Ontario at Vineland, the ' University of Waterloo and the New Lis keard College of Agricultural Technology, Total budget this year is $144,500, Bennett told his counterparts from across Canada that the objective of the government's Energy Management Program is to reduce substantially the total demand for energy in all sectors of Ontario's economy over the next decade; the Ontario Government wants to moderate by one-third our rate of growth in energy consumption. By 1980, Energy Management officials are looking for a $1 billion reduction per year in total energy expenditures across all sectors of Ontario's economy. Current forecasts indicate that energy spending in Ontario will reach $5.6 billion this year, and could double within five years. The Energy Management Program, coordinated by the Ministry of Energy, involves 11 other ministries in implementing better energy management techniques throughout the Province, Every possible means of farm energy management must be put into effect if the world population of the future is to be fed, ac- cording to Ontario's Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Food, R. Gordon Bennett. Speaking in St. John's Newfoundland, at the annual conference of provincial ministers and deputy ministers of agriculture, Mr. Bennett said that the modern farm operator is now able to provide food for at least 50 other people who are not directly engaged in the food in- dustry, despite the fact that the total energy used in agricultural production represents only 2,5 to 3 percent of Canada's overall energy use. However, the total food system in Canada from "farm to table" is a significant energy user — about 12 to 15 percent of national consumption, Mr. Bennett said. The deputy minister reviewed in detail his Ministry's par- ticipation in Ontario's overall Energy Management Program, which was announced by Energy Minister Dennis Timbrell last March. According to Mr. Bennett, Energy Management Program activities being undertaken.. within the Ministry of Agriculture and Food focus primarily on research into im- proving energy efficiency in a variety of farm operations and persuading farm operators to implement energy-saving techniques. To this end, the Ministry is establishing an Agricultural Energy Management Resource Centre at the Ridgetown College of Agricultural Technology. Included in the research projects are a study into the feasibility of new soil-warming techniques for hothouse tomato production as an energy saving method, compared with the traditional air heating systems, and studies into the energy-cost effectiveness of various dehumidification and ior vapor deposition control systems by using different glass surface treatments and temperature alternatives. Minister has difficult time Wrestling meet is possibility An exceptional wrestling meet may be held at South Huron District High School Monday night, It all depends on whether the new mat for the school arrives in time, Head of the area wrestling club and SHDHS coach Doug Ellison said the new mat is scheduled to arrive at the border late this week and he hopes to get clearance to have it installed in time for Monday's meet. If the mat does not arrive, the meet will be held at the University of Western Ontario in London.. Ellison expects at least 10 wrestlers from the United States to compete Monday. They are alternates`- to the United States world junior team and all are under the age of 18. Wrestlers from this area will also be competing. If the meet cannot be held at South Huron Monday, Ellison said announcements will be made over London radio stations.

Timbrell , Minister of Energy and Resources for Ontario found himself in some difficult positions in the question period after ad- dressing farmers at the National Farmers Union Regional Meetings held in Guelph. Timbrell in his address to the farmers related the amount of energy used in Ontario, the amount of this energy used by the farmers and also how much and in what form energy was being imported in Ontario, he prepared farmers for higher cost of energy, however all the blame for the increase in cost was given to the Federal Government, in fact all the problems Ontario faces were the effects of Federal Government decisions, His address was called a good election speech by farmers, and the question period was hard on Mr. Timbrell with farmers questioning the safety of atomic energy, farmers giving as an example the mysterious death, of some cattle after drinking' water which could have been polluted from the Pickering Plant, Mr, Timbrell stated that a tomic energy was safe and that the farmers did not have proof of those charges which was true because after the dead cattle had been examined at different places as to the cause of death no reason could be given to the farmers for their death, . Mr. Timbrell went on to eriticizeIthe at. Reverend Bishop Ragg for what he called an irresponsible speech the previouS day. Farmers displayed bit, terness when Mr. timbrell asked if they would live 400 years to prove that atomic power plants were dangetous111 The outburst` changed the subject to oil corigiamorates and Ontario's firiancieg of some of their programs, One of these Gulf agents may be your neighbour.
