Poultry
The. Poultry Producers held their
annual *meeting in the King Ed-
Ward; Toronto; Wednesday„. 'April
a.,, The attendance was fair but I
Was surprised that there weren't
more at the meeting, It Wins to
artp that the poultry industry is
not in ..a healtby condition, and I
thought there would have been
-More interest in making an .attern—
Pt at least to stabilize it, Poul-
try is an important industry both
In dollars to the producers and in
supplying a high quality food to
the consumer.
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,

Statistics seem to show a. pat-
tern which the gambling souls in
agriculture - or big business .can
follow if they wish, In the past
the price oycleg have been one
year losS one year profit then one
year loss and two years profit. 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.
Please remember that the Gov-
ernment and organization are help-
less without the support Of the in-
dividual producers. • Please let us
have your 'opinion.

Bervie Village
(By C-. X .11(arris, Conservatloo
Meer, $QatinurtPtO4) •
If you 'happen to be in the vier,
inity of Bervie, a small village
about five miles east of Kincar-
dine on Highway 9, take time out
to call at the newly organized
Wild. 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.
CIA will .cover•-this; enquire for
the detailS,; the rates are low.. -

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."

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.
