Federation 0f Agri The Ontario Federation of Ag- riculture has now developed a complete proposai for a beef-caif incentive prograin. Although the Federation has supported such a sèheme in principle bel ore, it was not until last week that Fed- eration President Gordon Hill re- veaIed full details of the propos- al. Under the federation plan, the Ontario governinent would offer Mans of up to $15,000 a fariner for purchasing breeding stock. Because heef cows generate no income during their first two or thrce years, the- Federation pro- poses that interest charges for the first three years be forgiven. In the third year the-fariner would pay back 20. per cent of the pria- ciple. la the fourth year of the loan, and each year until the boan is fully repald, the fariner would pay back 20 percent of the prin- cilplus interest at five per cent of the unpaid balance. "We aeed this lban prograin to help, improve farin income," 11111 said last wcck. "'Beef con- sumption is increasingrapidly, and yet production is not keeping pace. If Ontario intends to stay ln the beef business we need to l)roduce more beef caives, and in view, tliis Federation proposai is the way, to do it." CORNISH'S 1OrlooOnt.
