He and his wife, Dorothy, who lived in Exeter from 1955 to 1963, are building a home in Southcott Pines and John has joined the firm of GK Realty and Insurance Inc. John retired this year from his position as superintendent of programs with the Niagara South board of education. He and his wife were living in Welland, where they were both involved in many community affairs. John headed up last year's United Appeal in Wel- land. The Gomans have two daugh- ters, both teachers. Susan is teaching in Kitchener and Beth in Dundas. The two girls are married. Agricultural land is rapidly disappearing Canada's prime agricultural land could be reduced by half by the year 2000 if the federal government doesn't adopt a land -use policy to protect against urban sprawl, according to the Agricultural Institute of Canada. (A IC). "Ontario has the greatest proportion of class one and two farmland, and of course it all Iies in the southern sector which is most susceptible to urban pressure," AIC assistant niana- ger Andy Tcrauds said recently. AIC is a nonprofit organiza- tion based in Ottawa and rcp- resen1s 5,500 agriculture profes- sionals. scientists and graduate agrologists, including farmers. The organization will present its position paper on a federal agricultural land use policy to the caucus of at !cast two major parties in Ottawa January 211. ',aid Mr. Tcrauds. "We've already distributed it to all MP's both backbenchers and ministers, and have heard positive replies from about I)0 and not one negative reply," he said. "The need is for a imtionw•idc land -use policy which is uniform but would take into consideration priorities of each province," said Mr. Tcrauds. At present land use is the responsibility of individual provinces and need not be removed, he said. A national policy would serve as a guide reached by COI1scensus and would allow the federal government to set examples. He said the federal govern- ment could, for instance, encour- age provinces to combine utility and other service corridors thus freeing more land for farming." "Look at Ontario, where you have the federal railway and CPR with separate rail corridors, then Highway 401 and 2 running separate routes to the same places, plus various pipelines and hydro corridors with their own rights of way," he explained. If power lines could just be put closer to highways it would restrict farmland use less, he said. With a multiple corridor it would allow decentralization of industry and population to areas less suited to agriculture,he said, at less cost than if numerous corridors were required.

"If we don't do something, the consumption of farmland for urban use will continue," said Mr. Terauds. "Only one eighth of one percent of Canada's land is prime agricultral," In such areas as southwest- ern Ontario where prime agri- cultural a n d climatic con- ditions abound, Mr. Terauds said population pressures also abound. It takes twice as much class - four agricultural land to get the same harvest as from class - one land, and then such variables as weather are less favorable," he said. "In the short run, politicans may wish to avoid tough land- use decisions, but in the long term, keeping food prices in line and the availability of prime farmland are dependent on such decisions," he said.

"Maximum local participa- tion is necessary to develop a workable plan, but local gov- ernments needs guidelines from provincial governments and the federal government must provide the co-ordination neces- sary across Canada for a natio- nal polio' to be effective." AIC suggests. The organization estimates that with every population in- crease of 1.000 persons, between 300 and 1,200 acres of farmland are lost to urban use.
