ELLIOTT Secretary The sixth annual "Poultry Parade of Progress" will be held once again at the Manu- facturer's Building, 'Western Fair Grounds, London, in the middle of June.

Business poultrymen from all part of Canada and many points in the United States, gather at this event for two reasons—to listen to and take part in the conference sessions each afternoon, and to see and learn about the latest and most modern developments in things to do with poultry farming.

He also said for 27 years up to 450,000 farm families in Can- ada have been "pulling togeth- er" through the Canadian Fed- eration of Agriculture—not per- fectly—but better than ever be- fore. Without doubt, teamwork has been their greatest asset and their greatest source of strength. He added the year 1962 was one in which real strides were made toward team- work between the Farmers' Un- ion and the Federation of Agri- culture, and that a follow-up conference between officers of the Farmers' Union and ' the Federation of Agriculture is planned shortly, and he was sure that farmers in all parts of Canada would be sincere in hoping that negotiations during 1963 would achieve a constantly increasing measure of unity be- tween the two, groups.

McKERCHER Phone 849 R 4 - Seaforth Representing the Western Farm- ers' Weather Insurance Mutual Co., Woodstock, Ont. gym® Revise Subincts In Public School, Minister. Says. Education in rural Ontario has made rapid strides during the past 20 years, with new cen- tral schools, replacing the old` one -room school at the rate of about 100 a year, Ontario Edu- cation Minister William Davis said in Clinton Thursday night. Mr. Davis addressed a ban- quet attended by about 150 pub- lic school teachers from Huron No. 2 public school inspector- ate. The Central Huron dis- trict includes public schools at Clinton, RCAF Station Clinton, Seaforth, Goderich and sur- rounding rural areas. Chairman of the group is Ralph Smith, principal of Victor Lauriston Public School, Goderich. The minister said records show that any teacher can do more for his pupils if he has a graded classroom with not more than one or two grades, than if he has eight grades in a single classroom. Revise Subjects He . pointed out the depart- ment is undertaking a revision of all subjects from kindergar- ten to grade six. To assist in this work, Mr. Davis said a curriculum insti- tute has been set up in Toronto, which should insure a changing program to keep a breast of changing times. Mr. Davis also spoke of the new program in secondary schools. Under the provincial - federal 'training technical and vocational training agreement, many secondary school boards have been able to extend fa- cilities to include two new branches in addition to arts and sciences. "Secondary schools organiz- ed on the new plan will be able to offer courses designed to suit the individual capacities and interests of the children," the minister said. "Streaming of pupils in many larger elementary schools has been an accepted pattern for 30 years or more. It is not within your province to direct, but it is- within your power to give information which will help the pupil and the parent to select intelligently the course in which the child may enroll in grade 9,"1/1.r. Davis told the teachers. Ernest Crawford, also of Vic- tor Lauriston School, Goderich, was elected chairman of the in- spectorate. Other officers are: Mrs. Jack Corey, Goderich, sec- retary; Mrs. Ron Castle, Gode- rich, treasurer. - The officers will draw up plans for the annual teachers' conference, held in the fall.

RALSTON PURINA COMPANY, LIMITED WOODSTOCK TORONTO WHITBY MONTREAL SAINT,ONN FUNERALS PERT# .FEDERATION REPORTS BY ED DEARING The past few weeks have pro- duced more activity on agricul- tural legislation in Ontario than in any like period for a number of years. Some of these Bills are more important than others, but all of them will have an effect on the agricultural econ- omy in this province. Bill 43: This Bill is an Act to amend the 'Ontario Junior Farmer Establishment Loans Act. This reinstatement of the Junior Farmer. Loan program extends the maximum loan from $15,000.00 to $20,000.00; lengthens the repayment period from 25 to 30 years, and increas- es the amount obtainable from 65% of the value of security to 80%. Loans may be made in the name of the Junior Farmer, not only for individual loans, but also for family partnerships or family corporations of which the Junior Farmer is a mem- ber. Provision is also made for provincial guarantee of up to 10% of bank loans made for operating costs. A Junior Farm- er must be between the ages of 21 and '35 years. Bill 92: The Artificial Insem- ination of Cattle Act: This Act provides for a licensing system for the artificial insemination of cattle, and eliminates the control of the use of A.I. in the breeding of livestock other than cattle. The Livestock Com- missioner of Ontario is respon- sible for its administration, and a committee of not less than three persons will be set up to advise on the administration of the Act. Bill 111: An Act respecting the procedures for expropriating lands and for determining com- pelisation• for the expropriation or injurious affection of lands. This is the first- time that the expropriation procedures, and the ground rules governing com- pensation and other matters commonly arising as a result of expropriation, are spelled out in one Act. It also sets out cer- tain standard forms and docu- ments that shall be used by the expropriating bodies. Bill 124: An Act to amend the Assessment Act. The main result of this amendment has been to restore to farm people, living in the urban shadow, the benefit of- more equitable assess- ment. A recent amendment left the right to increase as- essment on land in suburban areas with local assessors, and as a result many legitimate farmers found themselves be- ing assessed and taxed on the same basis as land speculators and others who were develop- ing the land. Under the new amendment anyone using this land for farming purposes has his land assessed at a similar rate to farm land elsewhere. When the land has been sold for speculative, development or sub -dividing 'purposes, the as- sessment may be increased. Bill 106: An Act to amend the Ontario Farm Products Act: The amendments to the existing legislation eliminate the need of a marketing agency, simplify voting procedures making the taking of a vote more of an indication of producer oputTon than a legal and binding exer- cise, spell out in more detail the regulations that , a local board may make with regard to marketing quotas, provide that all of a regulated product must be marketed through the board with marketing fees paid WILLIAM NICHOLS Funeral service for William James Nichols, 59, of lot 21, concession 4, Fullarton Town- ship, who died in Stratford Gen- eral Hospital -Wednesday, were held Saturday .at 3 p.m. at the Heath -Leslie funeral home, Mit- chell, with Rev.

A special tobacco section has been added which provides the Ontario Flue -Cured Tobacco Marketing Board with powers to implement produc- tion controls; to prevent the growth of tobacco outside of production quotas; and giving the board power to inspect the acreages and destroy tobacco growing in excess of the pro- duction quotas. This fa,reach- ing section is not available to any other • marketing plan in Ontario. Bill 105: An Act to create an Ontario Food Council: This Bill provides for the establish- ment of an Ontario Food Coun- cil with at least five members representing producers, proces- sors, distributors and consum- ers. There will be four main sections of study — fresh and processed fruits and vegetables; dairy and poultry products; meats, and cereal products. The Council's goal is to provide a common ground for discussion of food problems, and it is hop- ed that many of the differences of opinion may be worked out at this level. The Council has broad powers of investigation, and may make recon menda tions to appropriate government agencies for action deemed nec- essary as a result of its findings. It is also hoped the Council can stimulate sales and promote re- search. Legislation has been introduc- ed, as predicted in this column, to provide for compensation for farmers who suffer damage by irresponsible hunters. The leg- islation will make it possible for the farmer to apply to the minister for compensation for damage to fences, buildings and livestock. The Crown, in turn, can recover the costs from the hunters responsible. This leg- islation will be welcomed, not only by farmers, but by re- sponsible hunters who have been concerned about the ac- tions of a few careless hunters.'
