We request our customers to order their supply early, and be assured of their berries. Prices Will Not Be More Than Last Year 50 Good Strawberry Pickers Wanted WINKNINOCONNOCiNiCiN IT WILL PAY YOU TO BE READY WITH WELLPGROWN PULLETS , There is an old Dutch saying, "The time to plant potatoes is when the seed is cheap." These observant farmers were simply following the ldw of supply and cheap at planting time they knew that many farmers would become discouraged and quit for a year, so potatoes would go up. The rule is just as sound for poultry- men. For the past 5 years, a year of low egg prices has always been followed by a year of good egg prices. The reason is easy to see. Low egg prices encourage many farmers to Cut back on chicks or to "conserve" on growing costs, resulting in poorer pullets. So, the next fall, eggs are scarce and the price is good. Will you be ready? Let us urge you to grow hardy, high-producing pullets ready to cash in with lots of eggs.

We hope that 'they found the meeting is t- eiesting and hope more will come next time, Warren Zurbrigg, county mem- ber of the 0.F,A. repented on, the last meeting in Toronto. The - fin- eavec of the organization were discussed and it was telt that study of this problem should be made. ft would be helpful commodity groups could; develop some standard of contribution ra- ther than the grant system Which varies' from year to year. Where counties have difficulty meeting their dues it Seemed that better organization at township level would eliminate this problem, Iii discussing the stabilized pri- ces Mr. Zurbnigg reported censid- enable dissatisfaction, However it is becoming wee and more ap- parent that farmers! will have to do a better job of establishing their costs .of production before Much can be acoomplished either with supports for deficiency . meets. Irr reporting for the Poultry Producers Carl Hemingway stated 'that the Ontario Poultry Prod- ucers' executive was informed that n order to -get the promotional plan accepted' by the Farm. Pro- ducts Marketing Beard a petit- me endorsing the plan will have to be signed by at least. 60 per- cent of all Poultry Producers based on the last census figures. Since 25 percent Of the listed poultry producers' in Huron Coun- ty have less than 50 hens and since about 50 percent of the poul- try prordecers in Ontario have less than 100 hens Otis 60 per- cent of all. producers seems un- realistic. There are several coun- ties with almost 200 producers with less than 8 hers. I doubt if these producers have any in- terest in the price of eggs, There was also some difference of opinion as to the meaning of titer clauses. in the petition. Re- presentatives of the executive well meet with the Minister and the Farm Products Marketing Board for clarification' on these require- ments. Huron Hog Producers met June 13 to outline their campaign plan for the corning vote. A county committee was appointed and it is their responsibility to see that committees are established an each township. This vote presents the greatest challenge that has faced far producers.
