Brown of RR 1 Bluevale was returned to the position of second vice president. Thr'ee directors at large were also chosen, They are: John Van Beers of RR 4 Blyth, Mery Smith of RR 4 Walton, and Tony McQuail. Guest speaker for the evening was Bruce McCall, manager of Brussels Stockyards Ltd. Mr. McCall urged all farmers to work at protecting the land, which he called "our greatest inheritance". Mr. McCall also stressed the importance of the farming in- dustry, saying that each calf born and each bushel of wheat grown represents new dollars, for the economy of Canada. Fieldman Bill Crawford said the Federation's membership in Market info now available Agriculture Minister Eugene Whelan today announced that free daily livestock markets information will be provided to anyone in Canada on Zenith telephone lines, beginning November 1, 1977.

He urged every member of the Federation to take an active part in its affairs to keep the group strong. Murray Gaunt, MPP for Huron-Bruce, noted that 1977 has been a tough year for farmers as a result of low prices and bad weather. He complimented the Federation for the "strong leadership it has shown in Huron County". A resolution opposing the proposed Bogies Beach development on lakefront property north of Goderich was approved by the Federation. A resolution setting up a committee to study data from the Pollution and Land Use Activities Reference Group, or PLUARG, established in 1973 by the International Joint Committee, was also approved. The Federation Committee is to be made up of experts in a number of fields, including fertilizer, livestock management, and erosion. It will publicize problems relating to land use and the PLUARG studies in general, and will make a submission to the IJC before that body makes any final decisions on the PLUARG findings, in 1978. Bev Brown told the group the issue of land use management was vitally important to Huron farmers, She noted that there would not be another chance to make a submission to the IJC until 1983 if the opportunity' was missed next year, since the committee meets only once every five years. A resolution calling for research, development, and the eventual implementation of small scale electrical generating stations close to farm areas where any waste heat could be used for greenhouse operations, was defeated by the Federation.
