because the roughage portion of the ration dictates
the combination of essential minerals needed. All
SHUR •GAIN MINERALS are now formulated
accordingly. It's nutritionally right, it's easy, it's
economical, to select the best SHUR. GAIN min-' -
eral mixture \for your livestock. . .

SHUR. GAIN ESSENTIAL MINERALS 2—FOR LEGUME FEEDING . . . feed
high legume forage, to balance the high calcium, low phosphorus.
SHUR • GAIN ESSENTIAL MINERALS 1!3—SALT FREE . . . feed where salt is avail-
able in the water or other source.

from the Throne, which gave many
of us the opportunity to spread our
oratorical wings before .some of the
countries best.. In regard to this, I
found that by actually taking part at
the first opportunity on. September
16th, I was given the chance to feel
that I had become part of this
House Of Commons, part of the
Debate and part of the Government
of this fine country of ours. I must
say too, that I was pleased to see
many of the papers throughout the
Bruce area reprint some of the
things, at least in part that I had to
say in my maiden speech of
September 16th..
Also, the formation and the early
meetings of all the committees
have taken up a nurnyer of hours of
our time, particularly when we had
only three days to deal with the
estimates of the various Depart-
ments of Government. I am
pleased to report to Bruce Riding
that the Riding will be represented
on the House Standing Committees
on Agriculture and on Broadcast-
ing. It was also, with a great deal
of honciur that I was named Vice
Chairman of the Broadcasting
Committee and also to the Steering

Sub -committee for. Agricalture, a
Committee which is of the utmost
importance to the Riding of Bruce.
In this first report, 1 would also
like to touch briefly on the problem
being faced by the cow -calf and
stocker operators at the present
time, a problem that I feel must
receive attention from the Federal
Government at the earliest possible
time; and on which I, have held
several.meetings with the Minister
of Agriculture,the. Honourable
Eugene Whelan.., I might point out
here, that the Minister informed
me. on . October 23rd, that an
announcement of a Federal pro -
grain to assist in the beef industry
would be made in the immediate
future. 1 also would like to report
that the Program had been organ-
ized some time earlier and had
been prepared, but was up -ended
when threeor four Provincial
Governments came in with pro-
grams on their own, which would
cm'mpietely upset the Federal
approach -- the Provinces being
namely Manitoba. Alberta, British
Columbia and Quebec. • Ontario
meanwhile has taken the stand,
and I believe rightly so that the
program should be Federal in
nature and have .a _nation wide
approach, and I have great hopes
that before my next report, such a
policy will have been announced
and put into effect for the benefit of
the ismall cow -calf operators and
the small beef farmer in Canada.
Needless to say, 1, as well .as
most Members were very glad to
see the end of the West Coast
.Grain Handlers strike. However, I
wotild have been much happier had
Federal intervention not been
necessary. Also at this time. I
would like to thank all of the people
connected with the Gaylea Com-
pany fromTara, who were in the
House on the 16th. the day that 1
delivered my first speech in the
House of Commons, and who
visited with us for sometime on that
occasion. 1 was very pleased to
have them in the House and also
very pleased to have them visit
Ottawa and see, at first hand the
'Government of Canada at work.
These then arc just some of the
happenings on the Hill in the past
month, but sonic 1 believe to be of
special interest and importance to
residents of Bruce Riding. Once
