The Rural Voice, 1992-01, Page 7FEEDBACK to show symptoms of allergic reac- tions from a body unable to cope with accumulated poisons. The percentage of the population suffering from aller- gies is rising at an alarming rate, as is the number of people experiencing a complete breakdown of their immune system. All because of these synthetic materials accumulating and the inabili- ty of the body to break them down and eliminate them. And don't let anybody scare us by saying we would be facing crop fail- ures, starvation and all the other dan- gers, if "crop protection chemicals" (what a fancy name for pesticides!) were banned. Just look around and tally up all the food that is wasted, beginning with our modern harvesting methods right down to the wasteful methods of processing plants, super- markets and restaurants! The only reason the agri-chemical industry is starting to clean up their act is because of people's environmental awareness and consumer pressure. Thank you for letting me express my opinion. Yours very truly, Siegfried (Ziggy) Kleinau Lion's Head, Ont. HAYING STORY A HIT Just a note to tell you how much I enjoyed the article by R. A. Fowler, September 1991 issue. Will look for- ward to reading more of his contribu- tions. To be able to describe haying time in the 1940s in such a humourous and detailed way, he certainly would have had to "be there." Thank you, Frank Bruder Dublin, Ont. UNPRECEDENTED CRISIS SITUATION The farmers of midwestern Ontario are in a crisis situation unprecedented in our province's history. When you take inflation into ac- count, the product prices being paid to farmers today are actually lower than they were in the depths of the Great Depression in the 1930s.
