ne e10Cmadiu@-t1temna.,owanvlflt MM1. M1 Report from Queen ?'s Park by Alex Carruthers, M. P P. On Thursday, May 12, major 114gainaffecting the Agri- cultural economny was intro- duced ln the Ontario Legis- lature by the Honourable WilliM Stewart, Min'ter of r Agiculture. The Legllation provides for the establishment af crop in- mrance, and 18 the result af an invalved study b y the De- partmerat af Agriculture and a Select Commtte. Ui h Legisiature, whlch tabled Its report ln 1962. It. was the unanimaus opinon af the Conait1tee, at that tlze, that no action shauld be taken as the majorlty af fariers and farxn organiza-ý tions lndicated a desire ta carry their awn crop Insurance. Crois Lomes Hawever, that was before the sèvere draughts af the lait few years, or the exessive rainfail af 1965. Particularly hard hit during tht, perlod has been eastern and north-eastern Ontario, but lait year, as weil, there were pockets af weather damage ln eush crop areas thraughaut the province. In aur awn area, severe damage to corn and tabacco crops was ex- perienced, with severe eca. nomlic lasses to local farmers. Goverament Assistance The Ontario Government has pravided assistance in varlous ways ta meet these lasses.

Guaranteed interest-free bank loans to a maximum ai $1,000 ta fariners for the pur- chase ai seed and fertilizer. Present Leglslatlon The present Federal Crap Insurance Act, as It naw stands, h flot suited ta On- tario's needa for the iollowing reasons: 1. The present boss coverage at 60% is not sufficient. 2. It daci not provide for sot lois coverage an an idi- vidual crop. This I a neces- sary requirement In Ontario. 3. It doci nat pravide cav- erage for forage crops sueh as corn, hay and pasture. 70% ai Ontario's agricultural rev- enue i derived irom the sale ai livestock and livestock pro- ducts. These are dependent on forage craps. Although no amendments have as yet been made, The Honourabie Joseph Green, the Federal Minister of Agricul- ture, has agreed ta the legis-1 lative changes sought by Ontario, and without whichi the provincial legisiation isi ai littie value ta farmers. Other Jurlsdlctlans In draiting the Ontario leg- Isiation, Mr. Stewart, and his Deamet had the benefit ai theeperece of other juris- dictions in this field. (a) In 1961, Saskatchewan introduced Crop Insurance with 194 participants. At the present time, there are still oniy 3,200. (b) Manitoba, although startiiig a programme six years ago, is stili in the process ai deveioping ItL (c) Alberta began a iimited programme in 1965 on a test area basis. (d) Nova Scotia braught in legislation in 1963 but no pro- gramme has been estabiished as yet. (e) Prince Edward Island'a programme, estabIlshed in 1963, covers only potataes and grain. 1actors Involved In establishing the Ontario Programme many factors have ta be cansidered: 1. The great variety ai agri- cultural crops ta be found In Ontario. 2. Premlums wiil have ta be estabiished for the varlous craps, and provision for the speedy settlement oai daims. 3. A major cansideration wiil be procurlng capable personnel. None of these matters can Cet Cash Today For OId Appliances througli STATE SMAN C LAS8SI1FI1E D Phone 623-3303 be started until miter the Legislature grants Its approval. Features ef the Ontario Plan Sanie af the.features ai the Ontario legislation include the follawig. 1. Participation hi tie plan wili be an a voluntary basis, but applicable province-wide, and will be effective in the 1967 crop season. 2. Thc programme wilpro- vide coverage up ta 80% ai thc normal production ai a, particular crop. 3. 60 % or 70 % coverage wlll alzo be available if desir. cd by the farmer. 4. Each tarmn unit wll be insured at a lavel ai caverage representing the productlvity ai that tarmn. This eliminates thc crhticism of area coverage where Uic average yield may be low. 5. Each farmer wMl set hi. own production standards, based on the paît perform- ance ai his tarmn. 6. Protection will b. oiiered against such perils. as drought, excessive moisture, flood, irait, hail, winter kili, wind, disease and other pests. 7. Premium rates for each insured crap will be determ- incd on actuai yheids by county. 8. A fariner will flot b. compelled ta insure ail his crops. i9. The insurance wiii be marketed through commission- ed agents, who may be regular i n s u r a n c e representatives. Commissions wiil be pald on a combination aififat service fees, plus a percentage ai the total premiums. Agents will be under cantract with the Crap Insurance Commission. 10. The actuai premium caît ta the producer will be re- duced by a contribution from the Government ai Canada ai 20% ai thc total premium. Advantages 1. It wiil insure a îatisiac- tory return ai the farmer'î investment Inis crop, regard- less ai weathcr conditions, or other hazards. 2. It will enhance his credit position whth tic banks or other lending agencies. 3. It will encourage greater specializathon as tic farmer will not nccd ta diversify i cropsaua protection against crop failures. Conclusion Farming whether we reabize it or not, Is aur most import- ant basic idustry, and as suci, every effort must be made ta Improve and mai- tain the cconomic position ai tic fariner. Indeed, thiî hi a major probbem facing the In- dustry at the present time. Farm casts are rising muci faster than farmn revenue, and i order ta keep thc industry solvent, either farm prices -must. rise or tarin icame b. ilsubsidized. Thraugi tii egisiation, the fariner will havc an effective weapan toa asist hlm ia strugglihg with thc hazards that are beyond is contrai in crop production, and it will be anc major step towards great- er ecanomlc secunlty for rural people.

Sound Death KneII For Grade 13 Exams The dcath knel ai Grade 13 educational methoda andil examinatians as naw consti-1 tuted was sounded in a repart1 given at a recent meeting ail1 the Durhamn District High'1 Schooi Board meeting held ini Clarke High School. This year is ta b. the iasti for examinations set by the dcpartment as has been Uic practice for years past. Next year Grade 13 stu- dents will write tests prepar- cd by a newly farmed "Serv- ice for admission ta' coilege and university."1 These tests wil Include an aptitude test and achievement tests. For the 1966 and 1967 tests the final mark wiil consist ai 35 per cent teacher's mark and 65 per cent examination mark. No Examinations lu 1968 No Grade 13 examinations wili be set in 1968. In that ycar university ap- plicants will again write the aptitude and achievement tests prepared by the Service for admission ta college and uni- versity. Alsa In 1968 the Department of Education will turn over ta high schoois the school leavingi examination at the Grade 13ý level. Schooi records wiil be made available to universities andI other institutions for further education. The report of the Minister' of Education said "The elim- ination of the centralized ex- aminatian will provide school systems with greater scope and flexibility in praviding stu- dents with more meaningful educational experience". Mare Scave Allowed "We believe such a change will enable highly qualified teachers teaching Grade 13 ta give students a pragram more closely related ta univcrsity work in termas ai depth and maturity." "Experience indicates", the report continued, "That the assessment by the profession- al staff ai a student's total achievement together wlth the external callege entrance type test provides the most reliable basis for predicting success ini future educational endeavars". The report said the, real probiem is that the Gra§&1 teacher does flot have ~t ive control of the courr ho teaches. He must prepare hl(stu. dents for an examination which he will neither s§èt nor mark and he has no positive guarantee that the hours ho spends in developing a par- ticular topic in a particular way are not a waste of the students' time.
