MONTEITH EXETER LTD. 2355-2121 'The hest in service when you need it ntosu''" T -A photo Consumer rep urges farmer co-operation Ruth Jackson of Kitchener provincial president of the Consumer's Association of Canada and consumer's representative on the Ontario Farm . Products Marketing Board, attempted to strike a reconciliation with the Huron County Federation of Agriculture Thursday night. Mrs. Jackson said she believed that differences between the CAC and farmers could be eliminated by emphasizing the economic similarities between the two groups. She added that differences between the groups may destroy their attempts to achieve com- mon goals, such as co-ordinated land use. Mrs. Jackson compared the actions and intentions of the CAC with those of farm organizations in Ontario. She said greater legislative power in the hands of the CAC, in co-operation with farmers, could steady retail prices and help to establish a comprehensive food policy. which is lacking in Canada and at the moment. Such a policy would control processing marketing. Mrs. Jackson said that "as far as the consumer is concerned, the processor is both an angel and a Meeting for child adoption Family and Children's Services is sponsoring a public meeting at Lorne Avenue School, 723 Lorne Avenue, tonight (June 12) at 8:30 p.m. in order to respond to the many recent enquiries from families in the community about adopting a Vietnamese child. The guest is Mrs. Victoria Leach, Ontario Adoption Co - Ordinator who was recently in Vietnam assisting with the airlift of children to Canada. ' Infants and childtren recently arrived in Ontario from Vietnam. All of these children have been placed with families who hr.d been previously involved with agencies through an adoption homestudy process. Six of the children came to London and rea ami les wTo had a ready been approved for international adoption. Approximately 175 area families enquired about adopting a Vietnamese child. The response to the needs of the Vietnamese children shows the concern that people have for children in need.Many have been stirred to ask "What can 1 do?" The children of Vietnam are not the only ones who have suffered from war famine and other disasters.

While providing exotic foods out of season, producers also place cheap, valueless foods on the market, she said, • If it had legislative power the CAC could control, limit and help processors,ultimately helping to relieve farm budget pressures. "On the world market, Canada is an under -producer. By com- bining access to information with legislative power, the CAC could bring Canada to the level of agricultural production that it is responsible for internationally. Increased product output could help Canadian farmers compete on the world market" She explained the CAC's belief that some form of farm income stabilization is necessary. The alternative could only be fluc- tuating product prices. She emphasized that people at all levels of the economy from farmers to consumers, should be in a position to advise the CAC. The CAC she noted functions best with a commission -type input. Plan controls for eggs Federal Agriculture Minister Eugene Whelan will place border controls on eggs as soon as the 10 provinces can post performance bonds as a guarantee not to ex- ceed egg production limits, a Winnipeg meeting of the Canadian Egg Marketing Agency (CEMA) was told. Some provinces,however in- cluding Ontario, are having difficulty obtaining the bonds because their financial resources have been "stretched pretty hard" said Ontario Egg Marketing Board manager Brian Ellsworth. In Ontario's case, he said, a bond for $800.000 must be posted to ensure the marketing board can collect from producers and pay CEMA a $1 per bird fine for hens exceeding the province's limit of 7.6 million. The $1 fine was a new regulation drafted by CEMA following a promise by Mr. Whelan in March that he would control the influx_o United States____ eggs as soon as stringent national production controls were operative across the country. The responsibility to collect fines was relegated to the province. Mr. Ellsworth said Ontario already has a $1 million loan from the provincial government to cover the cost of removing surplus eggs from the market. A spokesman from the Ontario ministry of agriculture and food in Toronto said the government is not prepared to advance further financial support to the egg board. "The board will have to try to see if it can arrange its finances to make the money available. 1 think the board will find some way to do this," said Mr. Ellsworth. "The concern is that the money has to be available and legally collectable to get the bond," he said. Ontario board director Gerry Long of London said he didn't know how many other provinces were in the same position, but that with Ontario producing the most eggs it faces the largest bond. "This thing is desperate on the part of the provincial boards because the producers are in difficulty," said Mr. Long. He indicated that producers have been losing money because they have been forced to lower their prices to compete with US eggs flooding the Ontario market. Announce substantial rise in research on agriculture The Hon. William A. Stewart, Ontario Minister of Agriculture and Food, announced a sub- stantial increase in the funding of agricultural research at a recent press conference at the University of Guelph. The agricultural research budget has been increased by nearly $3 million to a total of $15.8 million. In making the announcement, Mr. Stewart indicated the im- portance of research to agricultural development in the province. "The need for agricultural research in Ontario is obvious. Ontario is one of the most diversified and agriculturally important provinces in Canada. In 1974, the gross value - of agricultural production reached over $2.3 billion, and provided work in related industries for nearly one-fifth of Ontario's population," he emphasized. -The increase in the research funding will help us to maintain the levels of research currently being conducted, and provide additional funds for research in high priority areas." Highlights of the many projects involved livestock programs, experimental feels, pesticides and the broad area of crop production, with emphasis in soybean breeding, winter wheat improvement, mechanical harvesting and energy management. They are expanded areas of interest and new thrusts that need to be undertaken to sustain continued growth in the agricultural industry. Reasearch at the University of Guelph's Ontario Agricultural College and Ontario Veterinary College forms a major portion of the new allocations. A totally new research program in crop production will be started at the Centralia College of Agricultural Technology. Ridgetown College of Agricultural Technology will receive increased funding for a new engergy management program. The tender fruit program at the Horticultural Research Institute of Ontario at Vineland will also receive ad- ditional support. The announcement marks the beginning of a new , research program for the Centralia College of Agricultural Technology in white bean and rutabagas, both important cash crops in the area surrounding the College. Ozone fallout and the damage caused to white beans has been estimated at $3 to $4 million in the Last five years. An incident of atmospheric fallout in 1973 affected an area from Chatham to a line joining Clinton and Tillsonburg, and involved roughly one million acres of land. By MRS. WILLIAM ROHDE Mrs. Donald Bray, Doris Elford, Mrs. Gerry Grubb, Mrs. William Rohde, Mrs. Jack Stewart were on the Kirkton Horticulture Bus Trip to Kit- chener and visited Doon Pioneer Village, the former home of William Lyon Mackenzie King, Woodside National Historic Park, etc., and had supper at Leisure Lodge. Mr. & Mrs. Lorne Luther and Janice, Grand Bend visited recently with Mr. & Mrs. Glenn Jeffery. A number of Hi -C and Young People spent the weekend camping at the Pinery Provincial Park. Mrs. George Kellett returned home on Saturday after having spent a couple of days in hospital. Alan Jeffery returned home on Monday after having spent a couple of days in hospital after having injured his leg. It is because of the serious consequences of ozone fallout that Centralia will conduct research on ozone damage to white beans. As well, evaluation of white bean varieties, herbicide analysis, fertilizers and the combinations required for op- timum yields and weed control at the most reasonable cost will be evaluated.
