Compensation
rate increase
for farm
employers
Farming has the third-highest
accident frequency of all' other
occupations, and with the large
number of farm workers injured
each year, compensation
payments- have been increasing
steadily. AS a result, the rates for
farm employers ,reporting to the
Workmen's Compensation Board
were raised on January 1 of this
year.
Don Brown of the Farm Safety
Association (FSA) points out that
rate increases and_pay claims are
the responsibility of Workmen's
Compensation Fk'aftcP,'"liot FSA
"The policy of the FSA, being
involved in an occupational
accident prevention program, is
to help the farmer in any way we
can. An Explanation for the rate
increases is one of the questions
constantly being asked."
In the past, WCB rates for farm
employers were lower than
recommended by provincial
auditors. With the increasing cost
of payments, the deficit for these
rates has been increasing steadily
over the last three years. In order
to bring the deficit back to
normal, WCB is adopting the
recommendations- of its auditors.
The $1.50 rate will be increased to
$1.95; and the $3.35 rate to $4.
Brown continues that "the
Farm Safety Association is a
purely consultative organization
to help Ontario farmers reduce
their accident frequencies.
Already many farmers are
beginning to discover that the
number of accidents is well above
average; they have to understand
that, without accident prevention
and safety education, they will be
forced to pay even higher
assessments."

TODAY'S CHILD Huron: F of A membership increases
BY HELEN ALLEN Individual membershipTiirthe
uron Federation of Agriculture
ow have reached the. 1700 mark
teldman Wm. Crawford told the
anuary meeting of the
'ederation. This is an increase of
00 new members in the last 8
weeks. The membership
campaign led by Mr.. Crawford
and Vince Austin of Dungannon
was centered in the 'Howick and
urnberry area and was
co-ordinated byJack Stafford of
Wroxeter. The aim of the
campaign is to. add 100 new
mernbersTer month at least until
the spring planting commences.
On' other ' business, it was
decided to establish a committee
to study the restructuring of
County government: Since it was
felt that the province will impose.
restructuring if nothing is done
locally, the ,Ind'tilbers• and
directors 'thougb.tnit,'IwiSei4o be
well informed of what art be
expected.
President Doug Fortune
announced that a telegram, has
been sent to Queent Park
opposing the imposition of
daylight savings time.
In another move, the county
federation decided to lodge
strong protests against the
unacceptable long delays by the
lawyers and others responsible
for the granting of mortgages by
the farm credit corporation* in
Huron county. Some farmers
complained that it was nearly
impossible to buy or sell a farm if
FCC was involved as the waiting
period runs in some cases to a
whole year;
Stan Cairns of the CIAG office
in London spoke on "farm
liability". His informative talk
covered everything, from
snowmobile liability to aerial
spraying liability. Many
questions from the members and
the answers gave even more
enlightenment.

A FRIENDLY BOY
Just to look at Terry you can tell he is a typical six-year-old,.
full of bounce and mischief.
Terry is tall and slim, Indian in background, a good-looking lad
with brown eyes, black hair and light brown skin. 'He is active
and healthy. ,
• Since, he has just started school; Terry has not had' any
academic reports but he is a bright, intelligent youngster who
has already learned two languages -• Cree and English., If has
any problems in school, it will be because life on a reserve has
not given him the knowledge of some of the situations a child
may meet in classes and texbooks. But since he is alert and
inquisitive, new things are more a challenge than a frustration to
him.
Terry is a friendly, outgoing youngster with an easy-going
▪ disposition. He loves the outdoors in any season.
Terry needs loving parents who will offer him stimulation,
share his interest in outdoor activities and value chiS heritage.
To inquire about adopting Terry, please write to 'Today's
.Child, Ministry of Community and Social. Serviees, Box 888,
Station K, Toronto M4P 2H2. For general adoption information,
please contact your local Children's Aid Society.
