The - worst feature of the Indus- try is its speculative character. In his report Dr. Hope, Dominion ec- onomist, stated that, over the years, the poultry industry has ex- perienced.' extreme fluctuation.% particularly in eggs, where in re; cent. years the price has gone from a low of 28 cents to a high of 74 cents a dozen to the producer, 11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 Summerhill Community.

On this !basis we can say 1957 loss, 1958 profit, .1959 loss, 1960 profit, 1961 more profit, Halwever I must remind you speculative peo- ple that this forecast is not guar: anteed. Figgures show what hap- pened in the past but the future is still a guess.. Anyone who in- vests his all in poultry in 1961 expecting to make his fortune may end up without a shirt, I think we must all agree that a situation of this kind is not good enough for such an important in-. clustry, Are poultry producers 'content with this 'situation? That is the question that confronts the Poultry Committee of the Feder- ation of Agriculture. If the pro- ducers are satisfied then the com- mittee .rill let the matter rest. If they are not satisfied the commit- ee• will ask the FederatiOn. of Ag- riculture to conduct an informa- tion program designed to formu- late a plan 'to improve this situa- tion.

Game Farm owned and oper- ated by F,J.ton •MC.Lelland , and Sons. Fenced in, right beside the highway, you may see four or 'five different species of deer, including pure Black Europeans and small .Asiatics that have fawn-like spots at all times. In the next pen there are five large shaggy buffaloes (like those in our Western Provinces many years ago.) In the same Pen there are two stately elk. Also of interest to the visitor is a llama from South America, Brahma Cattle from -Scotland, Ponies 'from the Shetland Isles arid donkeys and mules- from other .parts. of the World, A visit-lo this farm is an edu- cational experience for' the whole family from grampa to baby. WAS held in Toronto on . March 22 and , 2r3, The automobile section has had a very _difficult year due to the inereased. number of accidents. and the greatly increase°, cost of repairing ears. However by equal- izing previous income . tax pay- ments and due to reasonable pro- fits in- other branches of the com- pany the final -results showed a small profit for the whole organ- ization. ' ° The automobile section is the largest and CIA now has the in- surance on one car'in 30 in Ontar- with the percentage rising steadily This growth has allowed CIA to extend its activities to other fields. One branch that is growing rap- idly is the Farm Liability Insur- ance. This may seem unimportant to many farmers because they haven't suffered losses in the past. Times are a little different new • because people are 'much more conscious of their . ability to col- lect damages. Did your dog ever taste a salesman calling at your place? Did a visitor ever slip on an icy doorstep? You • could be held responsible: Did any of your cattle ever get on the ,road? In this case you could lose the anim- al and have heavy damages to pay.

County Crop Report (P.)! 70010fOIST, assistant ag; riettitural representative for Huron, County) "The unseasonably cold and wet weather, which we experienced during the past. week has delayed seeding operations for 7at least another week. A warm, rain could do a lot of good to bring the soil into proper condition for seeding and, also help the growth of pas- tu,r and . hay fields and fall sown crops. "The monthly climatological re port fa this district shows . that 2,04 inches of precipitation occur- red for this district, which is slightly below average for March,. The monthly mean temperature for this district was 33.5° F,, which is 5° higher than normal for this ,area. This is possibly one ex- planation for the 'anticipation of an early' seeding this spring." Parr Line Forum Ends Season With Banquet Nig•ht (By our Hensall correspondent) Parr Line Farm Forum brought to a close another interesting' and informatiye year of work in the improvements of farming 'industry last Wednesday evening. With 100 percent attendance, 26 adults and ten children net at the spac- ious home of Mr. and Mrs, John Soldan for a turkey banquet. ' Mrs. John Soldan read an address to Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Love, who recently moved to their new home in Hensall. Gordon Coleman, pres- ident, presented them with a tele- vision-lamp and cup and saucer on behalf of the'' forum. Mr. Love made a suitable reply and assured the forum that they would contin= ue to be members of the Parr Line Fortim. Parr Line Forum has merited recognitibn among the forums of, Canada. Out of some '21 broad- casts on the OBC across Canada farm programs on Monday night, Parr Line Forum was recognized on five occasions for their find- ings by ekpert authorities on the topic under discussion. Following the banquet the gen- tlemen retired to the living room for television and to the games room until the ladies dispatched with the dishes. ProgreSsive euch- re completed the evening. Mrs. Gordon Coleman was high lady and Mrs. Ross Love high gentle- man. Miss Marie Jarott and Mr. John Soldan 'scored low. A lunch- eon, cafeteria style brought the evening to a close. Parr Line Forum now has com-q. pleted its fourth successful. year 'and feel they have much to offer in the future. County OFU Hears Walter Miller Tell How To Get Action Walter Miller, guest speaker at the Huron County branch of the Ontario Farmers Union urged his hearers tb take action for them- selves at the legislative level, He said, ' "Farmers will never be in a bet.: ter position, as long as we have an agricultural minister in office, who made a statement recently that 'farmers have just had •the best two years they've ever had,' when all farmers will tell you they are finding it increasingly difficult to come out on top, no matter how efficient they are, or how hard they work," Mr. Miller stated that the •OM is being recognized and listened to, because of the accomplishments already for the farmer. Gordon Hill; Varna, leader at county level, was in charge of the meeting, and told of his recent' visit to Ottawa, when the OFU brief was presented to the feder- al government. The treasurer's report showed the Barn Dance and draw had been a decided success. Jack Arm- strong gave a report on the adver- tising committee, and Carl Dalton (president of the newly formed Seaforth local) was added to that committee, County meetings will be held quarterly, on the third Tuesday of each month. The next one will be on June 18. Lunch will be provid- ed by the Holmesville Local. The Huron OM will hold a pic- nic again, in the Lions Park, Sea- forth, on July 16. Mrs. J. Arm- strong, lady director for the coun- ty, spoke 'briefly, and Gordon Hill gave an account of some of the new locals that had been set tm.
