Sometimes in the hurry to get the work done the load got a little big- ger than it should, and perhaps there was a soft spot on the road to the barn. It was too much to ask of the team, but they dug in their toes and the load arrived at the barn. A similar situation develop- , ed in the "FAME" canvass in Huron County. When the dates were arranged for the share sales drive for Farmers' Allied Meat Enterprises, it was ek- pected that haying would be over for a couple of weeks be- fore harvest started. The wea- therman didn't see things that way, so haying dragged on un- til the harvest was waiting. However, many canvassers just dug in their toes and went the "second mile". Their ef- forts were successful and great- ly appreciated.

Lake Nipigon, north of Lake Superior, is the largest lake en- tirely within the boundaries of Ontario. It covers an area of 1870 square miles. The next largest lakes entirely within the province are Lac Seul (530 square miles), Lake Nipissing (330 square miles) and Lake Simcoe (280 square miles): SAVE MONEY YOUR'NOAIF NlOMN'6RAIN8 co-op CONCENTRATES HOME CI OWH] cfAINSj CO-OP CUSTOM MIXING gives you CONCENTRATE ra lluAmiso THE BALANCED FEED YOU NEED Seaforth Farmers Phone Seaford' FURROW AND FALLQ1111 By FAIRBAIRN We can quote nobody con- cerning what happened at a meeting of the Ontario Concen- trated Milk Producers, Cream and Cheese Producers in To- ronto last week, but since they recently threatened to develop their own marketing plan if the Whole Milk League didn't want to go along with an over-all scheme that was probably the main topic. Actually we don't know because we cannot sit in on these meetings, so this is pure speculation (for those who wish to be kind—and educated guess). However, - it would be safe to assume these producer representatives discussed the fluid producers move toward establishing a marketing plan with agency powers. Perhaps they have 1ieard—as we have— that preliminary returns of the petition for a voter appear fav- orable. This is not to say that a vote would be the same and we will not hazard a guess on the outcome of . any vote for some time yet. We've talked to a lot of milk producers who don't want the league to be- come a marketing agency. We suspect the Channel Island breeders will be fairly solidly opposed and they are not alone but it's much too early to test the `temper' of feeling on this. Incidentally, word reached us that the high test shippers may challenge the decision of the Milk Industry Board on the but- terfat differential in the law courts. That is their privilege and perhaps it is time this type of legislation was challenged. It might be better for all con- cerned — producers, distribu- tors, processors and govern- ments to know whether they are on sound ground—whether they approve or oppose the leg- islation. However, to return to the un- known deliberations of the three dairy groups—concentrat- ed, cream and cheese produc- ers. Wouldn't it be ironical if Charlio McInnis (fire -brand of the hop producers until re- cently and still a director of the Ontario Concentrated Milk Producers) is pressing for a marketing agency for these three groups? After his ex- perience with the hog board he claimed to have lost faith , in marketing agencies because they were state controlled. What else can producers ex- pect since it is legislation pass: ed by the province that gives them certain powers—the gov- ernment represents all the peo• ple, not just producers. If the three groups develop their marketing plan and the fluid producers have their own they will find themselves com- peting—as we've said before— with one another for the con - When Did the Temperance Movement Begin in Canada? It could be said to have be- gun with the efforts of Bishop Laval and the Jesuit missionar- ies to forbid the use of alcohol in the fur trade in the 17th cen- tury. But the modern temper- ance movement in this country, greatly influenced by develop- ments in the States, dates from the first half of the 19th cen- tury when the social problems created by the unrestricted liq uor traffic induced a spontan- eous wave of tempera -nee feel- ing across the qpntinent. In Upper Canada in 1842 there were 147 distilleries and 96 breweries serving a population of under 500,000. The early sentiment in favor of modera- tion changed to one favoring voluntary abstinence or "tee- totalism" and finally to a move- ment for total prohibition by legislation. The first temper- ance society formed in what is now Canada was one establish- ed at Beaver River, N.S., in April, 1828. In 1878 temper- ance forces secured the pass- age of the Canada Temperance Act, commonly called the Scott Act, which imposed a simplified form of local option on a na- tional scale. CALGARY'S COWBOY BALLADEER, Stu Philips, and his pretty singing partner Peggy Neville are seen regularly on Red River Jamboree, Fridays on the CBC -TV network. Phil- lips replaces Stu Davis as host for the summer show. The young announcer -singer has composed 103 songs, 65 of which have been published, and as well has made song albums deal- ing with British Columbia, Alberta and Quebec. Increased Premiums More Quality Hogs Increased premiums on top quality hogs authorized last Oc- tober have resulted in an in- crease in Grade A and a de- crease in Grade C hogs market- ed in Canada during the first six months of this year. Commenting on the situation, Elgin Senn, chief of the grading seption, Livestock Division, Can- ada Department of Agriculture, said that the government's de- cision to increase the premium on Grade A carcasses and drop the premium paid on Grade B hogs appears to be having the desired effect. "These grading figures," he said, "indicate that Canadian hog producers are making a worthwhile effort to produce more of the long lean bacon - type hogs that produce the kind of products that competition from other kinds of meat re- quires. "Canadian housewives object to pork products that are fat, and the improvement in hog grades means more top quality lean hams, bacon, pork chops, etc., to meet the growing de- mand for lean meats. "We must continue to im- prove Canadian hog quality also if our Canadian ,pork pro- ducts are to hold their position, as high quality Canadian pro- ducts on the U.S. market," He said that in the first six months of 1961, compared with the same period the previous year, there was an increase h Canada of two per cent in the number of Grade A carcasses marketed and the improvement was reflected in every province. The greatest improvement, he pointed out, was in Alberta, where Grade A hogs jumped 4.7 per cent to a total of 26.3 per cent to a total of 26.3 per cent: At the same time, Grade - C carcasses marketed in Alber- ta fell 2.8 per cent. Percentages of Grade A's for the other provinces, with fig- „ sumers' dollars and still have an association through which they can take group action for the benefit of all. Perhaps the producer groups should agree to stand together on such mat- ters as they can agree about and go their separate ways when they cannot agree. The only fallacy in such an argument appears to be that producers have only one pro- duct—and a very perishable one at that—to sell while pro- cessors and distributors have a great many. Selfish interests always block group action but they have been a part of hu- man nature since time, or at least recorded history began. It is also true that purely selfish states and individuals have nev- er survived too long. * * * Today's Tidbit: Washing cows udders with paper towels can prevent Mastitus.

Decreases in the number of Grade.

The Maritime provinces show- ed an increase of .3 per cent in Grade C hogs, but the de- crease for the entire country was L2 per cent. "He certainly made an unus- ually good after-dinner speech."

Caro .For Happy Ncirvest (By Hal Wright, Farm Safety Specialist) While combines are not as lethal as some of our other farm machines, nevertheless they are not entirely accident free, as shown by the 76 com- bine accidents during the 1959 harvest. These •accidents claimed 13 amputations and 55 temporary injuries, resulting in a time loss of over 1,700 days off work. In a busy season this time loss can lose money in crop losses, proving again that during har- vest, at least, time is money. Most problems are caused by adjusting, lubricating, or "un- clogging" the machine while it is still operating; "hitch hik- ers"; and lack of shields. Some losses have occurred from the engine overheating, due to a plugged air screen, causing fire as well as engine damage. Other fire losses have resulted from incorrect belt tension, overheated bearings, and careless smokers. Extra care in combining could mean extra profits! Your chances of having a farm accident this month are extremely good. Be alert, and stay alive, says Hal Wright, ODA farm safety engineer. Take a 5 -minute break in the middle of the afternoon.
