taken out of production was sue used during last fall election campaign and a broad range of agricultural groups and institutions such as the Ontario Agricultural it have it up and used it to demand the Conservative government lake a tougher stand on the preservation of farmland In Burlington riding which includes all of North the favored Tory candidate Gary was defeated by Liberal Julian and Bill Johnson of the New Democratic Parly ran a stronf third About 18 votes were cast against the ruling Tories compared with jOO in their favor Major iritlclsm Agriculture Minister Newman in his speech to the daily newspaper publishers said he had one major of their work Said Newman I dont think Ontario dailies agricultural stories Ihe length depth of play they There no way to prove that of course but I hope 1 can you that agriculture is bie in sense of big business and big libar it should interest urban re iders just ai much as lloum for farm I realize that stones about agriculture generally page one in cities Hut there room for a lot more of them inside the paper And I think there also a need for a lot more in depth feature length ana of trends in agriculture preferably by reporters who specialize in that field all know a sharp price for any food is news for everyone Surely ihe com factors underlying the price increase ire just as nevvsworlhy if only you can get below surface lo the essential facts and there Ihe rub The agriculture minister siui thai pari of job is trying foster greater understanding between rural ind urban people between the man on the tractor and Ihe lnd in the supermarket Take from me the match maker s lot is not a happy one Farmers misunderstood I find lhat country people ire well aware of the realities of life hell that why they live in the country But m eity dwellers are not nearly informed about the realities of rural life really have trouble understanding farmer s of view And the main reason is it astonishing number of them haven l grasped some In last two years more and more urban consumers have been demanding to know those facts but they haven ilways been getting them from the media 1- arm struggles recalled Mr Newman said I Hunk s significant that when farmers were struggling lo keep their heads above water in the Inic 1960s and 1 heard almost no talk about preservation of farm land the need make it produce in abundance That has developed since prices to the farmer began gelling more realistic Now everybody s talking about the farmer and his land Overnight experts Maybe I welcome this sudden rush of interest if only little more sense in all the talk Instead I advice from overnight experts who wouldn know a pitchfork it they sat on one They luck Inose essential facts of life I mentioned And because background is lacking factual frame of reference urban politicians can scan urban consumers slogans about vanishing food and Ihcn offer a pat urban solution slap a freeze on the Inndsomeonc else of course and then well have enough to eat lookout timer I To which I say Don eat Ihiil I Later on in his speech to ihe publishers Agriculture Among teachings HI Holiness Hah Is religion must be in conform lty with science and reason so I may Influence Deans of men formers receive for their labor
