Lawyer Counsels Farmers 1o Share Farm With Sons DEMO Workman nro demolishlntl the old band shell at St Vln cent Park in Barrie The Farmers should give their Ions in share in the business to retain their interest and tree young people on the land sai Barrie lawyer Gordon McTurk last night He was addressing the lnnisfil Federation of Agri iculture at the Orange Hall Thornton Mr McTurk alsohandcd out some free legal advice in an explanation of expropriation Sprocedures Earlier the feder ation passed resolution cull ing for minimum payment at $200 compensation for each hydro tower erected on farming land Congratulating the farmers on their turnout in litbelow oweather would not have come this far to hear myself speak Mr McTurk noted Farmers sometimes have dif flculty in keeping farms in the family There were advantages in city life and jobs in industry that were ditiicult to match With our transportation the young man cmstlll live on the farm with his mother and father and commute industry offered high degree of secur ity Farming offered lower earnings than industry With the fdther on the farm the son couldnot be his own boss Sometimes the son de layed his marriage and the raising of family on the mere expectation or hope of some future benefit Yet the father would prefer tokeep oneson or moreon the farm He would rathersea the benefit of his work go to his son than sell out to stranger How can this be accomplish ed demanded Mr Mclurk QWEATHER TORONTO CPléofiiclal fore casts issued by the weather office at 11 am Synvps Winter still domin ates Ontarios weather picture

of which will take about two weeks had deteriorated until City Coun How can the interest of the son he maintained MAKE IT ATTRACTIVE The whole business of form ing should he made more at tractive to son That put farming in the position of hav ing to compete with industry and commerce Yet former could not pay his son $125 an hour Hemust compete in some other way it was not reasonable to have son on farm hoping to get it at the time of his fathers death Sometimes will was not made Sometimes circum stances changed the will or there were so many conditions and legacies that the farm turn ed out to be burden There must be something more than promises That must be to my mind an in terest stated the speaker JOINT ENTERPRISE This could be given or sold The business could be joint enterprise in the shape 01 company partnership Mr Mclurk did not think it was good idea to sell farm to son There was the difficulty of price and the father lost control In most cases the son did not have the money gift was not practical The father lost control and the son received windfall Gift tax had to be paid What about incorporating company This is sound and bus inssslike way It was ideal for retaining control The former could give away shares or arrange for the sale of them The value of the farmers estate was grad ually reduced so at death his succession taxes were propor tionately lower NOT APPLICABLE However there were two chief reasonsfor incorporating business as limited liability company neither of which ap plied to farming One was in the case of risky venture The other was to save taxes Commented Mr lldcTurk plf youpwill permit me little levity havenever seen farmer admit to having tax able incometo worry about But the government had greaterdegree of control over companies Returns were re quiredand there were balance sheets It became almost necessity to have competent auditor to do the bookkeeping am sureif all the farms were incorporated we would not have nearly enough accountants in the area Only large farms should bovincorporated PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT partnership agreement however wouldbe suitable for different situations The father retained the assets and the son gave promissory notes in re tum for hlslnterest Some times the father presented an itial 15 per cent Thespeakcr warned that to exceed $4000 in any year Fronts no READ SMALL ans You AREl 118 ST VINCENT PARK BAND SillIll cll no longer considered it safe The board at parks management expect to build meant gift tax could be lm posed The fnther could forgive the promissory notes Such year partnership agreement could provide for drawings from the business The sons draw ings would depend on his age and whether he was married but provision could be made for an increase in drawings The agreement should also provide for purchase of the fathers interest at death This could be done either by more gage or by the sons insuring his fathers life As the sons interest increased the suc cession duties to be paid on the remainder of the business decreased But the business would pay taxes of one sort or another If you get away from income tax itis as sure as Hell thcy will catch you when you die joked Mr McTurk DIFFICULT PROBLEM Onc expropriation Mr Mo Turk told the federation If farmers find it complicated assure you lawyers find it more mu Each case had to be consid ered on its own merits Land could only be expropriated by statutebut the speaker read out long list of statutes which provided for expropriation of land Each act set out its own methods its own reasons its own authorities In the Munic According to Caesar in formation division of the Ontario Hydro Connnission speaking to the BarrieRotary Club yester day 1930 will he the golden year of electricity With an estimated

chic procedure under the Municipal Act was by pass ing bylaw in council The municipality could then go onto the land immediately and the county sheriff was authorized to employ as many officers as necessaryto enforce this No notice was required and pays moot could be made through the County Court to the senior county judge However farmer could du pute the expropriation and the municipality may then repeal the bylaw it was sometimes advantageous to farmer to do lay expropriation as this could affect theland values Mr Mclurk cited case where land was cxpropriated in 1911 but only taken over in 1929 Compensation however was on 1911 values SEEK ADVICE The suggcstlon had been made that one Expropriation Act he passodvin the province This would make things easier for farmers and lawyers Mr McTurk urged farmers to seek advice as soon as an ex propriation took place com Petent assessor should see the land and buildina concerned as soon as this happened other wise evidence as to their con
