The announcement was made in fbe provincial legis- lafure on b ebaîf of the Minister of Agriculture and Food, the Hon. William A. Sfewart, by Hon. Eric Wink- er, Chairman of the Manage- ment Board of Cabinet. The program will forma the firsf p arf of fbe Farm i ncome ftabilizatfion thrust as an- nounced in fhe Provincial Budgef Speech on April 7, 197ý. In making the announce- ment, Mr. Winkler sfafed fbaf under the new Beef Caîf Income Stabilizafion Pro- gramr, fhe Ont ario Govern- menf bas two objectives: (a) f0 stabilize the income of recognized beef caîf pro- ducers in Onfario, (2) f0 encourage a confinuing steady supply Of Ontario- produced beef. The program is long-t ermn in They Had a Bail et Lions Centre Pic yground scope, wifhi the major empbia- sis being on fhe benefits wbvicb will accrue f0 those producers who plan f0 continue in beef caîf production over several years. An income stabilization fund will be creafed wbhereby ail recognized beef caif pro- ducers in Ontario will qualify for the j oint1-govern ment pro- grain on a voluntary basis for an) initial five-y'ear period. Botb the farmier and the Provincial Governmenf would make annual contributions f0 the fund. Paymenfs info and from tbe fund will approx- imafely balance over the five-year period. Tbe weigbted average mar- ket price becomnes a vital stafisfic in the producer pay- ouf under tbe programi. The weigbfed average price for Onfario-produced calves wîll be esfablisbed each year at several principal selling c ints in Ontario during eptember, October and November. If the weigbited average market price of stocker calves falîs below the guaranfee, a payment for the difference will be made fo parficipating producers. Pro- ducer payments fromn the fund will be made on a per-cow basis f0 make if consistent witb the premiums which wîll be collecfed on a per cow basis. A paymient will be made for eachi cow regisfered in the programn. A variefy of factors will defermiine the payout per cow: the minimum prîce guarantee esfablisbed, the weigbfed average market price, tbe number of calves from 100 cows, and fhe average caîf weighf. In the Ont ario Beef Caîf Income Sfabilization Program,. pay- menfs will be based on a 450-pound caîf and an 85 per cent caîf drop. A prîce guaranfee of 50c a pound bas been esfablished for stocker t Howto0 Wbether voit smell as sweet as a r'ose or as strong as ripe ebeese makes a big difference fo other people.

As the heighft of the holiday season approaches, and many famnilles go camping in o,,. forests or along the watert, incidents of people being stung by bees and wasps will rîse. It's besf to be careful at ai fimes when in the vicinify of stinging insects. Some people are exfremely allergic f0 bee stings and need medical help fast. Others have a milder reaction. A simple first aid treatment prior to getting medical help is to remnove the stinger, if the insect bas not withdrawn if, by scrapîng if ouf wifb a steril- ized knife. To ease fhe pain use a compress of common baking soda, slighfly moisten- ed with cold wafer.

"Since the policy was firs; established in 1945 byv thc Ontario Ministry of Agricul- tujre and Food, the programn bias assured caf fie owners of veferinary service in areas of iow livestock populations wbere ifs nof economnically feasibie for a veferinarian f0 ~operafe on bris owni," says Dr. L. G. Colemnan, Veterinary Services Brancb supervisor of flie program. Compounding the problem for producers needing veteri- inary'ý service are the great distances between cenfers in nortbern Ontario. At present, 25 vterinarians are under contracf f0 servicýe 17 areas. Forenof these areas are in the territorial districfs and the other tbiree in parts of Gre-Bruce and Renfrew Coun'ties. The average cal is about 25 miles return. As a group in 1974, flie veterinar- ians drove over 500,000 il1es Io make 22,5:30 calîs. "Ail f 'le veterinarians under the programi are involved in bofb large and small animai practices, but tbey mjusf give top) priority f0 calîs fromn livesfock owners,- points ouf Dr. R. G. Urqubart, director of the Regulatory and Comn- municable Diseases Section. -Withiin the Designafed Area, no mnaffer how~ far the veferi- nanran bias f0 travel, the producer onfly bias f0 pay thie standard tee 'of $5 f0 get himn to the farmi gate. This is similar f0 the basic caltee in soutbern Ontario. The veferi- nanians cani also make uise of the Veterinary Service Labor- atory estahlisbed at New Liskeard fo r diagnostic work". In areas where livestock iwners have shown inferest in be program for veferinary ;issistance, a V'eterinary,, Ser- vices Comimittee bias' been establisbied witb an agricult- ural representative as secre- tary. Once a Designated Area is approved, the comimittee musf provide $1,000 each year towards the maintenance of the veterinarian nifs area; the Miniry'ý of Agriculture and Food provýides $7,000 and mileage paymnenfs. In the norfb Cochrane area, bowever, even, the assistance policy is not enough. For this large district, a veferinarian on salary f0 the Veferinary Services Branch operates a governmenf practice. Tbe program blas proved f0 be ext remiely popular wifb, livestock owners in these diStricfs; in fact, -in somle zones, the local commniftee provides a bonus f0 the veterinarian," Dr. Coeman adds. "Wýe've hiad excellent response and very few coin- plaints fromn livesfock wn- ers." Producers in fhese areas can sec the benefits of the programi eacb fimie tbey need hielp. Tbrougb the Onitario Minisfry of Agriculture and Food, veterinarians are on caîl f0 maintain animal heahi in Designàated Areas no mnatter what the distance. ATTENTION FARMERS!
