program, introduced April 1,
1971, provides for the payrnent of
grants of $5.00 per tree, to a
maximum of $500 per farm. As of
May 19, 1972 this program will
apply only to Dead and Diseased
Elm Trees located on fence lines
and in open fields and will cease to
apply to Elm trees located in farm

Jn commentinOon these
changes „in the Capital Grants
Program, Mr. Stewart elaborated
on the Program. "The 'inclusion
of livestock fencing as a grantable
item, in this prograin in consistent
with the Government's long-range
assistance policy for the bee
cow -calf industry'", ' he . said.
"Earlier today, 1 announced a
program of government
guaranteed bank, loans to beef
cow -calf operators to assist .them
in expanding their herds,r Fencing
is a vital part of livestock
farming, and we felt it imperative
that new permanent livestock
fencing ie added to the list of
eligible items in this program."
"With respect 4o the
litnitatiotifs to the Dead and
Diseased Elm Tree Program, we
have been impres1ed by' the very
logical arguments of professional
fore9ters who areconcerned with
Woodlo't management and good
forestry pr•a etioos. We still wish
to. see these tiysightly objects

removed from our farm fence
lines and open.fields where they
are a hazard to livestock, farm
machinery alid fences.
Therefore, the program will
continue with these limitations."
