Engelstad, Manager Goderich Branch: H. G. Spring, Manager The Varna Farm Union Local held their regular meeting in the Varna School on Monday night. In recent weeks some newspapers have printed conflicting figures regarding the 'export and import of agricultural produce. To clar- ify this situation to our me/alters, the following list of imports- was compiled from the Import Books from the Dominion Bureau of Statistics : Total meat including poultry, beef (fresh and canned), pork, mutton, atc„ $20,664,834; sausage casings, $5,538,518; total milk and milk products, $4,590,193; total egg,, $2,752,304; total bean, $25,- 713,018; fruit, $103,761,000; pota- toes (other than seed), $6,411,000; vegetables, $38,123,000, , The Import and Export Books from the Dominion Bureau of Statistics are available at this local to anyone- wishing informa- tion on any item not listed above. One mernber felt that the agri- culture industry was a dumping ground used to the benefit of oth- er industries. The resolution_ committee pres- ented the following resolution to be sent to head office: "Whereas it is imperative that farm organizations retain their freedom and should not be financ- ially. dependent upon , township FARMERS! 1 , FOR YOUR LATE.

Therefore- be it resolved that the' Ontario Farmers' Union petition the On- tario government and insist that grants to farm organizations be discontinued and a levy stystem be instituted by apeansaof a volun- tary requisition only:" A county meeting will be held in the Agriculture office board room in Clinton, on June 18, with a special speaker to be announced at a later date. Gordon Hill reported a recent board meeting held in Toronto. This board now includes six new county executives, reflecting the rapid growth made this past win- ter. He said that all counties are reporting progress. Several re- quests for organizatipn had not been met due to lack, of person- nel. All counties reported good pol- itical meetings. In some instan- ces four political candidates shar- ed the platform. Because of recent expansion Mr. Hill said the, Board felt it nec- essary to proceed with plans for a central office to be located in Guelph. At the present time the Farmers' Union' is being adminis- tered from the homes of secretary Frank Gamble, Chatsworth; pres- ident, Albert Cormack, Arthur, and editor Sam Bowman, Elora. The new office will eliminate any overlapping and should insure more efficiency and better service to members. The Ontario Farmers' Union will sponsor a booth at the Ploughing Match to be held in Simcoe. It has been brought to the at- tention of the local that increas- ing numbers of hogs, owned by feed concerns are reaching the markets. Some feed 'companies can handle thousands of pigs at a time with three turnovers per year. The feed companies can realize their profit through the disposal of their feed and are not concerned with the price• received, as is the farmer. While this situ- ation is not too common here in Huron. County, it is increasing in other parts of Ontario and the U.S., where pig hatchet's are re- ported to be in operation, At present this type of operation has extended to laying flocks in the U.S. Members felt this to be a very dangerous situation as • farmers would soon lose control of their product, and if allowed to contin- ue, this could well mean the end of the family farms.
