TAYLOR Brucefield, Ontario measured in minutes gasoline costs you less If you work at a job-and most of us do-how-many minutes does it take to earn enough to buy a gallon. of gasoline? 33 minutes? Well, that was true for the average Canadian back in 1939. 29 minutes? You're right if you're thinking about prices in 1946. 16 minutes? Correct. According to government figures, that's how long it takes an. average Canadian today to , earn the price of a gallon of gasoline. On the score of performance, you're getting an even bigger bargain. For today's regular gasolines are far superior to the premium grades sold Only ten years ago. iireliPIONIAL OIL LiINEITIED more kick in me spring ti Plant "Big Kernel-Small Cob" u NirrE co reCtin Ft I IDS SEED CORN tours in thefog 4444- • 1 HURON COUNTY :HOLSTEIN CLUB • ,Bred Heifer Sale FARMERS We are shipping cattle every Monday for United Co-operative of ,Ontario and solicit your patronage.

It seems to rrie,that there must be some- thing that could be done to am prove the situation, Perhaps if 'we study the facts we roan Lir- .rive at a solution, I was talking tot a vegetable ,grower near Leamington. He told me that potato,ea were only 'worth 50 cents a bag which was, :n't covering .,,the cost of digging .and handling. One farmer with 20 acres was leaving the potatoes in the ground, Yesterday I bought a bag of potatoes at a, local grocery- store and paid a $1,50 for a 75 pound bag, Surely the handlers don't 'deserve .twice twice as much as the fanner gets for growing the potatoes, Egg prices have been fair re- cently for A large but with the .amount of eggs in storage and :a 4 percent increase ih current production ,it is likely that eggs 'will be resting on the floor all 'winter.

GLUTTON, .RR 5, Goderich S. C. GALBRAITH,- • Blyth • .40-1-b ant that we keep the quality high, One egg-grader was. tel- ling me recently that egg quality has been down seriously, You farmers know the reasena not gathering often enough; not Plac- ing the eggs in a cool place; not keel:411g nests and floors., clean, It is discouraging to be getting such low prices but grade B is a let lower. Also if we hope to export we can only do so by pro, clueing top quality. The same can be applied to hogs, The production is going up but again, for the best quality there' is .a considerable export market. If we produce top qual- ity we can have this badly need- ed market, .Beef might be compared to the potatoes. The price to the farm- er ,has been low yet the -reason doesn't seem clear. In recent weeks the number, of cattle on the market has been smaller than last 'year and we have been ex- Parting some 3000 head of slaugh- ter cattle to the U.S, each week. Last year we were net importers of beef to the extent of 55,000, head. This year we will be net' exporters of a larger number and with .fewer cattle on the market the price has dropped 2 or 3 dollars a ewt, The law of sup- ply and demand doesn't seem to be in force. What is the answer? Market, inigaaigericies like hogs, peaches, or white beans? GOVernment support like egg or butter? Con- trolled -preduation like the tobac- co?
