The' Huron County Federa-
tion. of Agriculture will hold a
banquet in Belgrave, Jtily 20th,
to celebrate the 25th anniver-
sary of the oganization,
The committee chairman, in
charge of the banquet told
those present at a Thursday.,
night meeting of the county,
executive, that the guest speak
er would be Gordon Bennett, a
former agricultural representa-
tive for Huron County.
The county organization will
send a letter to each of the
township federations asking
them to provide compliment-
ary tickets for all past presi-
dents and their wives. Presi-
dent, Charles Thomas said the
townships .should try to send
all former members will. had
worked hard for the Federation
even if they were not presi-
dents.
In the president's remarks,
Mr. Thomas commented on.the
Zone two conference held in
Listowel, June 7th. He said
during a panel discusSion the
county presidents were asked
how much money they felt was
needed to run their county fed-
eration. He said his answer,
based on what he felt they
should be doing, was $100,000,
He said the days are almost
gone when a farmer can do his
ror
own income tax and they could
charge him Mr doing it. He
said this was especially true
for the farmer with hired help
who must calcOlate such things
as income tax and pension plan
payments.. ,
Mr. Thomas added the Fed-
eration should provide a law-,
yer service and ether benefits
to the farmer. don't think
anyone would mind paying $50
a year for this service;')° he
said. The; president said these
services are provided in Bri-
tain and the farmers are wil-
ling to pay for them.
Mr; Thomas also mentioned
he was elected a board member
of the Mid-Western Ontario
Development Association. He
said he felt since Hmon Coun-
ty only had representatives
fromf towns, that someone
should represent rural Huron.
He added MODA was now put-
ting- more emphasize on rural
development than they had in
the past.
Also at the meeting, a Junior
Farmer who,attended the Farm
Safety Conference in Guelph
spoke on farm safety. Bob. Foth-
eringliatti said he learned at
the conference many farm ac-
cidents are caused by improper
hitching, falls, and fatititte. He
added the fatigue factor played '
a large part in accidents and
most accidents occured in the
mid-morning, • and mid-afternoon
when a farmer is the most tir-•
ed. Co`ncerning accidents be-
tween farm vehicles and cars,,.
he told the members there
were 244 such accidents in On-
tario last year. He reminded.
them the Junior Farmers were
selling warning signs to put on,
farm machinery and they would
be selling them at the Interna7.
tional Plowing Match in McKil-
lop. •
• He ended his speach with the
remark, "Yod could have your
first accident on the last day
of your life."
