In a brief submitted for con- sideration by the Ontario Com- mittee on Taxation, the O.F.A. proposed that property be re- quired. to pay for services to people. In other words, the 0. F. A. has suggested that while the cost of services to property such as roads, administration of property titles, and, property protectiofi, should be raised through an assessment of taxes levied against the land, the cost of services td people such as education, welfare and justice should be raised by levying tax- es on people. PERSONALIZED COASTERS - GIFT IDEAS - SERVIETTES Seaforth Phone 141 riculture took cognizance of the many changes which has taken place in recent years by draw- ing attention to the fact that, due to the mobility of people, a large portion of the labor force may reside in one municipality and obtain employment in an entirely different municipality. Because of this, industrial and commercial taxes may bear lit- tle relationship to the services Among other things, the brief called for a check on public spending, the standardization of school buildings and standard- ization of school text books. The brief contends the present system of Provincial grants for educational purposes lends en- couragement to extravagant spending and' points out this extravagance must, in the final analysis, be borne by the tax- payer. While the O.F.A. is opposed to the principle of assessing taxes against property as a means of raising money for so- cial services, the proposal was made that, if this practise is continued, the costs should be apportioned on a per capita bas- is, and, that a minimum and a maximum property tax should be established. Further recommendations con- tained in the brief included changes in the Assessment Act which would require an asses- sor to show cause for his as- sessment. Under the present Act this is not a requirement. The Ontario Federation of Ag - 1 ,Y+' j'I, CHRISTMAS TREES Pruned Scotch Pines Come and pick your own, and we will deliver if necessary.

In other words, while employees work to produce wealth in one municipality they frequently demand services such as education, justice and social welfare from an entirely differ- ent municipality. The 0.F.A. suggested that -the present system of assessment and taxation is antiquated, in- equitable and in dire need of revision. CAN EXPECT TRANSFORMATION IN FIELD OF AGRICULTURE Canadians can expect to see a transformation in the field of agriculture within a short time, Prof. George Jones, of the crop science department at Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph, told the annual meeting of the Huron County Soil and Crop Improvement Association at Bel - grave. Prof. Jones told about 175 'farmers attending the banquet they were "a development arm for us at the College." He predicted the country's population will double in the next 20 years from 20,000,000 to 40,000,00 and more research. and development will be need- ed to produce more food. Prof. Jones urged extra care in the use of chemicals. Direc- tion of their use by experts should be allowed, he said.

Although 'the Neander- thaler had a huge brow over his eyes and a retreating forehead, his cranium was large --in some cases above the average for Modern. man. The nose was very wide but -not flattened. The Neanderthaler had large teeth but almost no chin. His hands and feet resembled those of modern man. Ile could use fire and was a skilful maker of ax- es, scrapers, spearheads and borers. He buried his dead with care and ceremony.
