Christie apologizes to federation
. Former Perth County Fedgration of Agri-
` culture president Ron Christie apologized
"for the disruption and inconvenience' his
abrupt resignation caused the federation.
Mr, Christie of RR 2, Staffs, made the
apology at the federation's annual meeting in
Atwood recently. His apology came after he
was presented with a plaque in recognition of
his years as federation president.
It was at the federation's directors meeting
in May when Mr. Christie stood up and
announced he would resign as president, The
action was Mr. Christie's response to the
Ontario Federation of Agriculture's call for
the resignation of Agriculture Minister
Dennis Timbrell, Finance Minister Larry
Crossman and other provincial figures.
At the annual meeting,' Mr. Christie said
that call shattered the credibility he had for
the OFA.
The resignation changed his life, he said.
He said he was able to spend more time on his
farm this summer,
Mr, Christie said he hopes there is no hard
feelings between himself and other Perth
federation members.
At the annual meeting, first vice-president
and acting chairman Dave Smith was
acclaimed as president.
A Sebringville'area farmer, Mr, Smith said
the federation has to get the agriculture
message across to school age children. He
said the federation is working with the
Women for the Support of Agriculture in its
attempts to have agricultutie taught in Perth
Coupty schools.
Bill Denham, RR 1, St. Marys was named
first vice-president. Paul Verkley, RR 1,
Atwood was elected second vice-president.
Federation of agriculture
To realize its, motto of "Farmers working
for Farmers," the Perth County Federation of
Agriculture needs financing, says OFA
executive director Brenda Ward.
In order to continue information meetings,
the federation needs more money, said Mrs.
Ward.
She made her comments at the annual
meeting of the federation in Atwood, after the
1984-85 budget which includes deficit spend-
ing was presented.
She directed her comments to representa-
'ives of Perth County Council who were
present. Mrs. ,Ward slid the federation
would like a grant from county council.
in the past, county council has turned down
grant requests.
'Your money would not be going astray•'
He defeated provincial director Wayne
Hartung of RR 1, Gowanstown for the
position.
Township directors were named and they
are as follows: Downie Township: Ken
Green, Tony Van Klooster and Jim Tyler;
South Easthope Township, Andy Gras, Ken
Reibling and Henry Klooster; North East -
hope; Ron Hyde; Blanshard Township, Cliff
Thomson and Bryan Bertrand; Wallace
Township, Stewart Walters and Wayne
Hartung; Ellice Township, Norval Priestap,
Peter Bokkers and Paull Nyenhuis; Logan
Township,' Cecil Rose; Mornington Town-
ship, Norman Held and David Kropf; Elma
Township, Doug Pebbles, Carol Thornton
and Paul Verkley; Fuilarton; Clara Keller;
Hibbert Township, Ron Christie and Rudy
Jansen.
needs money
said Mrs. Ward.
Warden Glynn Coghlin suggested that the
federation approach county council again.
"You will have to come and sell it to all of
county council," he said.
The federation has budgeted expenditures
of $6,850 which includes executive members'
honorariums of $1,150. Honorariums have
not been paid for the past several years.
An income of $4,955 has been budgeted for
the coming year. The largest income is from
OFA rebates which have been estimated at
$2,300: Township grants of $1,200 are
'expected.
N. Coghlin cautioned the federation that
it cannot receive grants from both the county
and the townships.
Six of the 11 townships in Perth gave grants
to the federation this year.
A federation member from Waterloo
County said he was surprised that the Perth
federation did not receive more in municipal
grants. He said the smallest township in
Waterloo gives more in a grant than all of the
Perth townships combined.
Wallace Township Reeve, Hans Feldmann
said the federation has to remain indepen-
dent and should not be asking for money.
Mr. Feldmann pr ented a motion that the
Perth federation .cgect an additional $5 Hi
addition to the pF membership fee. The
motion was turned down.
"It will probably cost 54.95 to collect the
$5," said Mr. Verkiey. He said the federation
is not a fundraising orgahization and it will
survive financially by doing without.
