Now if a farmer would like to build a barn, silo, repair or replace plumbing, wiring, heating, dig or drill a well, pumping equipment or ponds, he will receive a grant to the tune of 40 percent of the cost to a . maximum of $3,000. If he is a corporationtor in partner- ship with anyone, including his own family, the amount is increased to $6,000. Another item...the O.H.LLP. health plan for 80 percent of the farmers is paid by the public purse. This contributes enormously to the exhorbitant health costs. Our own agriculture ministers and their families apply and take these hand- outs. Hundreds of millions of your tax. dollars could be saved each year if these programs only applied to . farmers whose only. income is from farming. And take notice they need not declare these grants as income; they go directly into their pocket. ] Here is another dandy. This business called farming is the only one in Canada that your son or family may inherit and pay né inheri- tance tax. Some sweetheart deal and they still keep ERA crying. Wake up, taxpayer and "complain loud and clear to your provincial and federal governments...you are being had by your governments, with your money, to the tune of hundreds of millions of your dollars each year. You may receive all the data to substantiate these claims free of chargé for the asking from yolir local department of agriculture. Now I ask Mr. E. Whelan and Mr. Wm. Newman, who is shafting who?

Other studies also show that coffee is a significant source of potassium, magnesium, iron, while cadmium is at the bottom of a list of minor mineral components of coffee beans. . It should be noted that the Boston University Medical Center study of heart disease involved interviews © with coffee drinkers who survived heart attacks and offered no data about the beverages used by patients who died of heart attacks. Also, while coffee drinking may increase blood lipid values in some individuals, this is regarded as a normal reaction to any stimulus, such as watching a sports . event or eating a good meal. Further, radioactive tagg- ing of 'the blood lipid mole- cules has failed to show that such blood fats lead to the - cholesterol deposits some- times associated with heart disease. Particularly misleading are results of laboratory which ed shock doses of coffee since the symptoms ob- served may not accurately represent the effects of moderate use of coffee by a human adult. The Coffee Information Institute maintains a library of more than 5,000 refer- ences to the scientific liter- ature on coffee and caffeine. Objective information about health effects of coffee is available from our files on request by authors, editors, and other interested parties. Sincerely, Kenneth N. Anderson, Executive Director.
