NFU Backed Manitoba Beef Plan Encourages Farmers
National Farmers Union Region 5 Coordinator Jack Skelton praises Manitoba’s move to create a beef Marketing Plan under a single desk selling agency. He says it shows the government recognizes flaws in the old system and could boost production if costs and support payouts are realistic. He touts a national meat authority model using a cost of production formula to stabilize prices and exports and foster self sufficiency.

Homes Safer Yet Still Most Hazardous After Traffic
The Canada Safety Council finds homes are slowly safer, with accidental deaths dropping from 9.7 to 8.5 per 100 000 from 1975 to 1979, yet more than 2 000 die at home annually and 400 000 suffer disabling injuries costing about 1.7 billion dollars yearly. Falls remain the leading cause, about 35 percent of home deaths and 50 percent of disabling injuries. Watch your step.
