NEWS (By Carl Hemingway) The zone meeting of Huron - Perth -Middlesex Beef Producers was held in Exeter March 27th. • Some 53 interested beef producers heard George Geer, agricultural representative of Bruce County, give the production costs from the farm management reports of Bruce County. Mr. Geer stated that the purchase of feeder calves at about 400 pounds and finishing in about a year at about 900 pounds had proved most profitable. Feeders of about 700 pounds and finishing at about 1200 pounds were next, with the cow -calf program providing very low labor income to the farmer. Needless to say, he ran into considerable argument in the discussion period. • The problem of procuring feed- ers is increasing with the develop- ment of an attractive market for finished cattle in the west coast of both British Columbia and Unit- ed States. This market is encour- aging more feedlots in Alberta and is cutting into the supply of feed- er cattle available for Ontario. • There is a decided increase of cow -calf herds in the Maritimes which will 'help relieve the situa- tion in Ontario but as yet the qual- ity is lacking. In order that the organization could obtain adequate finances for the promotion of the industry, the • meeting approved a motion that a deduction of 5 cents per head be taken for the organization at all recognized places of sale, This would mean that it would be in many cases apply to feeder cattle as well as slaughter cattle. To compensate for this the charge was reduced from the formerly proposed 10c to 5c. 4. The Ontario Wheat Producers held their annual meeting on Mar. 28. John Anderson, president, stated that negotiations to obtain use of the Port • Colborne elevator were proceeding quite favorably, and it is expected that it will be • available for this year's crop. Also the Board expects to be able to purchase wheat above the negoti- ated price if the market warrants it. This will enable the Board to have a, greater stabilizing affect on the price and with storage at their disposal they will have full control over the quality of the ex - ..ports. t The question of feed freight as- sistance on western grain came up for a good deal of discussion. It was pointed out that the more grain a feeder purchases the great- er the benefit; therefore, this sub- sidy plays into the hand of the 4 vertical integrator to the detri- ment of the family farmer. We were told of a feed mill with 3,000 sews and a laying flock of 130,000. In these operations the five dollar subsidy on the grain fed would give a handsome profit. When it was put to a vote, the meeting approved a resolution requesting the removal of this subsidy in On- tario. The Ontario Farm Radio Forum annual will be held in the King Edward Hotel, Toronto, April 6, and the first meeting of FAME shareholders will be held at the Seaway Hotel, Toronto, April 7. rr i • ODORLESS CLEAN BURNING FURNACE OIL STOVE OIL D.

A„DEAN, M.D. , MEDITORIAL: It is a mistake to feel that if you have had a stomach ulcer once you will al- ways have one. Many patients will have a stomach ulcercondition due to a period of mental stress and will never have a recurrence. Persons who say "my ulcers are bothering me today” are actually referring to a minor stomach up- set. A true peptic ulcer doesn't develop overnight and disappear the next day. The prescribed diet for new ul- cer patients is bland, with milk as the basis of every meal or be- tween -meal feeding. Strained baby food is often used for severe ulcer attacks. At the beginning of treatment, feedings are given at frequent intervals — as often as every hour. Later on, two hours between meals is sufficient. The amount of food should be small at each feeding. A diet of this sort is very help- ful in holding the acid content in the stomach to a minimum. As a supplement between meals, acid - neutralizing pills (antacids) are used. • Another part of the treatment is the use of acid -suppressant pills or medicines. Belladonna is an older, well-known example, and is still one of the best. Rest—mental as well as physical —is another important aspect of the treatment, Staying in bed one to three weeks may be necessary. depending upon the severity of the ulcer attack. Certain medicines are used along this line to aid in securing this rest. Since ulcer flare-ufls seem to occur on a seasonal basis, spring and fall, extra care should be tak- en at these times to prevent a re- currance. Close contact with the family doctor, including periodic check-ups, is a must for those who have the tendency to develop a stomach ulcer. Life: An everlasting struggle to keep money coming in, and teeth and hair from coming out. • —Titeditrvisee6ti- _ FUNERALS MRS. JOSEPH J. KEENAN. There ,passed away in London en.

Subscribers of the Hay Munici- pal Telephone System at the an- nual meeting on Wednesday after- noon, gave approval to the making of further capital expenditures in an amount not exceeding $150,000 for the purpose of making improve- ments to the system's facilities and the installation of a dial exchange at Grand Bend. The Telephone System will apply to the Corpora- tion of the Township of Hay for the issue of debentures to provide the capital required. Specifica- tions have already gone out to suppliers of telephone equipment calling for prices to be given on equipment for the dial exchange. Tenders are to be in by May 15, and ground work will be started shortly for the changeover at Grand Bend. By the end of 1962 it is possible the switch to dial will be made, Reeve V. L. Becker told the annual meeting. A parcel of land, approximately 15,000 square feet, has been purchased in Grand Bend for the dial station. Reeve Becker also. related to the meeting that plans are under way to install another cable between Zurich and Dashwood to give the subscribers better service between these two centres. He also stated that nego- tiations are under way to have an- other cable run from Zurich to Hensall.—Zurich Citizens News. "Lady," wearily replied the male who had been hit by her car, "your arm was out, I'll admit. But, first it was up, then down, then into circles, then straight out. That's a left turn signal?" • "Silly," she retorted, "the first two might have been wrong, but didn't you see me erase them and give the correct sign?" {RECALLS FIRST'" HAIRCUT IN OLD . TIME • :BARBER SHOP (By HARRY J, I£QYLE, in The Toronto Telegram) It was unusual to have my father stop the team at the schoolhquSe at late recess and ask the teacher %to let me go free. The horses wereointed in the direction of the village and there were some grain bags in the back of the ,Sleigh. I knew enough not to ask what he had in mind. After a mile or so of jogging along the patchy road, the sleigh runners squawling and screeching on the bare gravel spots, he fin- ally spoke: "Liable to have a breakup any time now." "Your aunt is coming in on the five o'clock train from the city." My reply of "Oh!" sounded faint in the outdoors. I was still puz- zled as to why I had been com- mandeered for the trip. The mys- tery was solved in another mile when he spoke again and handed me a, -25 -cent piece. "Your mother wants you to get a haircut at Jakes." Then I fretted all the way to town about my first visit to a barber shop. Prior to this I had been exposed to my father's clip- ping with scissors and shears and a bowl on my head as a guide, All too soon we stopped in front of the little white building with the false front and the big front window with the display of ger- aniums. "I'm leaving the grain at the grist mill and picking up your aunt and if you get finished before that I'II meet you at the store." He drove off down the street and I was left alone and a great deal frightened in front of the shop. It was like opening a door to a new and unknown chapter of my life to push open"the barber shop door with the jangling bell. I didn't see anything as I pulled off the stocking cap and slid on to the nearest chair. A little man with a green eye shade stood be- hind the barber chair cutting the Presbyterian minister's hair. "Afternoon. You Bill's boy?" I half gulped and half spoke in the affirmative. "What's your name?" "Harry." The little man then did some- thing that endeared him to me for life. I'm Jake. Only one ahead of you. Like to see the funnies?" I nodded and eagerly grasped the magical pages of colored fun- nies. I must say that comic papers from the Sunday papers were a great luxury. in those days. There was the sound of the snip- ping shears, a kettle bubbling op the old pot-bellied stove at the ream of the shop, the shuffling of feet as two old men, pudding on pipes, silently played checkers, and the never-ending drone of Jake. I had a shock when I looked up in the big mirror and found that the old minister had his eyes clos- ed. Once or twice his head slip- ped away from the shears and he snorted into wakefulness. He was finished and Jake helped him into his fur coat and a funny fur hat. He paid Jake who made change from his sweater pocket and then handed me a five -cent piece. I determined not to mention it at home. My father and mother wouldn't mind but my grandfather would probably reason that the minister was trying to buy a Sun- day School member. The drover put his cigar on the edge of the shelf under the mirror. This was the first time I had watched a man being shaved, ex- cept for two or three peeks from the sidewalk. Jake walked on small feet as if he were afraid of breaking eggs and he lathered and towelled in a swinging swirling sort of way. The towels were steaming hot. Then there was an- other lathering and the razor glid- ing like new skates on ice as he removed the whiskers, The five -cent piece burned in my ,pocket beside the quarter. I felt guilty for accepting it. Then it was my turn just as the clerk from Murphy's store carne in. I struggled to the chair. Jake look- ed puzzled. I was too 1pig to sit on the board across the arms of the chair and when I sat in the chair the back of it came up too high for Jake to cut my hair. He put me on a tall stool and draped a white sheet around me, "Shave?" inquired the little bar- ber reaching for the brush and mug. "A haircut, please," I almost screamed. It was Jake's joke. He chuckled, the clerk laughed and the two old men looked up momentarily and went back to their game. I was too young for Jake's soliloquy so he addressed it to the clerk who looked up from time to time from a pink paper called the Police Gazette and grunted. Then I saw the sign. Haircuts for grownups was 25 cents and for children the price was 15 cents. I was puzzling over whether he would charge me a grownup or a child and wished I had worn short pants in place of overalls. Then I remembered! that my heavy stockings were rolled up to my knees over the pant legs. The last act of the haircut was a drenching in a tonic with a high scent. I handed Jake the 25 cents. He put it in his pocket and helped me on with my coat. Then he reached in the sweater pocket and handed me 10 cents. Even my aunt's complaining about having to ride in the sleigh in place of a•cutter and my'fath- er's disgust with the smell of what he called the "sheep-dip" on my hair couldn't take away from the genuinely wonderful feeling of that late afternoon in later winter when I had my first "boughten" hair- cut.
