Brucefield, officiated on Septem bier 19 in Wingham United Church when Patricia 'Shirley Bender -be- came the bride of Garth Douglas Postill. The bride is the only dau- ghter of Mr. and Mrs. Leroy Bender, Clifford, and the groom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Postsill, RR 3, Clinton. The bride's gown was French chanitilly lace and net over slipper satin with fitted bodice. It was Provincial president of the On- tario Farmers Union, Gordon Hill, Varna, scolded farmers in general for their tendency to increase production without regard for the problem of selling. Speaking at the annual meeting of the Huron District OFU here last week, he said, "we have been taught by the departments of agriculture to turn the business of agriculture over to others." "People with large financial backing," he went on, "have only been too glad to take over that part of our job." Huron is one of the most active counties- in farm union work, said Mr. Hill and complimented Bob Taylor, noting that in other parts of the province they have made requests for Bob. Mr, Hill told of attending a sim- ilar meeting in Timmins. He flew there on Saturday morning, for an afternoon meeting, banquet, and then as party which lasted un- til early Sunday morning. "Those people have enthusiasm," said Mr. Hill, "They left their grain stan- ding in the field, in perfect wea- ther, because they feel -that meet- ings to discuss their common pro- lems are as important as getting the harvest in." Commenting on the growth of the OFU, Hr, Hill said that now the group is recognised by both governments, and representatives of OFU have sat on important bodies such as the advisory com- mittee to the stabilization board, and the agricultural marketing inquiry committee. He outlined how the OM had persuaded government to include rabies among the contagious dis- eases for which compensation could :be paid for loss of animals, After trips to see the Hon Mr. Harkness, and delegations to mun- icipal councils, finally a group from Grey Township council, ac- companied by Federation of Ag- riculture and Farmers Union re- presentatives visited the govern- ment again, and finally an arran- gement of payment was arrived at, with the province and domin- ion each paying 40 percent and the municipality paying 20 per- cent. Mr. Hill expressed astonishment that when the picture of the del- egation was printed, the Farm Union man at one end was cut off, "They did not want him to get ,any credit for being there," said Mr. Hill. The OFU president commented that though the group tried to get along with other farm organizat- ions, at times it was quite diffi- cult, even in his own, county. He noted a radio broadcast he had heard over CBC quite recently, which mentioned a man winning an award for the best broadcast in the year. This prize broadcast had pointed out the many subsid- ies which people in other indus- tries get—compared with farm subsidies. "Very small amount of federal assistance comes to the farmers," said Mr. Hill, Discussing deficiency payments, he recalled that the OFU had' pointed out to the government that the "offer-to-purchase type of floor-length with a sabrina neck- line and lily-point sleeves. The bouffant skirt was in tiers of lace and accordion pleated net from waist to hem. A pearl and rhine- stone crown held her veil of illus- ion net edged with lace. She wore the groom's gift, a pearl necklace and earrings and carried red roses and white stephanotis bound into streamers. Miss Gloria Stobo, London, was maid of honor, wearing a pale pink ballerina-length gown and carried aqua and white 'mums. Miss Lloye Stobo, Teeswater, was bridesmaid, wearing an aqua bal- lerina-length gown, Her flowers were pink and white 'mums. Miss Candice Poxton, Wingham, cousin of the bride, was flower girl, wearing a white lace dress over taffeta and carrying yellow and white 'mums, Dean Fitchitt, Thedford, was the groomsman. Jack Foxten, Wingham, cousin of the bride, and Frank Postill, Clinton, brother of the groom, were ushers. Miss. Joyce Bender, Gowans- town, was soloist, accompanied by Fred Linchie, Kitchener. She sang the Lord's Prayer and "Wed- ding Prayer." The reception was held in the church parlors. For her wedding trip the bride chose a two-piece blue wool suit with grey lamb trim and black and blue -accessories. She wore a corsage of pink carnations. Mr. and Mrs. Postill will live Clinton.at RAILWAY TIME TABLE CHANGES Effective Sundcw, Oct. 25th, 1959 price support" could no louder op- erate. He drew -a chart on the blackboard showing the parity level (steady straight line) and the price actually received for the product (a wavy line with high- er peak, and lower one) then the weighted average price received, Which would be another straight 'line some distance below parity level. The deficiency payment would be the difference between parity level and the weighted av- erage price, said Mr, Hill. This deficiency payment would be paid to every producer on, a limited amount of produce. There would be no reduction if incen- tive, for the man who managed to get a high price for his prodiret would get the same deficienCY payment as the man who sold when the price was low. The offereto-purchase type,.- of price support could not continue, said Mr, Hill, because of the sur- pluses piling up in ,government hands. Comparing as man with 300 hogs wit lithe man with 3,000 hogs, he noted that under the price •support plan the 3,00-man would get ten times as much sup- port as the 300-man, and at the same time the price to the 300- man was being lowered by the surplus put on the market by 3,000-man, Mr. Hill noted that they had received permission from the gov- ernment for collecting dues with taxes upon voluntary request. He complained that the report cir- culated by the Hog Producers As- sociation concerning the OFU brief was entirely false. He stat- ed that the Hig Producers are misleading farmers when they say a tariff would go up in the United States if deficiency pay- ments are made here on hogs. He claimed that limiting production on which deficiency payments are paid will not set up a production goal as the Hig Producers Assoc- iation. suggest. "If farmers do not increase pro- duction when getting 25 cents a pound, why would they at 23.65 cents'?" Mr. Hill suggested that the Hog Producers Association is on the side of vertical, integration, and of the larger packing companies, and claimed that they are afraid the need,for a marketing board would be less •after deficiency payments were begun. The OFU president said, "It is really a crime what is happening to our farmers on the family type farm. Each organization say they favour, them, and then take -act- ion which will result only to the deriment of the family type farm." Mr. Hill commented on the brief taken by the poultry groups and the trade at the same time, to the government saying that what would satisfy one would sat- isfy, all. "Row could ea arrange- ment satisfying to the trade, be also satisfying to the producers?" 'asked Mr: Hall, The speaker recalled that early in the- plan to get deficiency pay- ments under 'way an economist explained ,(en, request of Gordon Greer, Federation president) that the -trend was 'away from vertical integration and that deficiency payments was responsible, Then shortly after the Federation came out against these payments, yet had no better plan to offer, only a lower support price at a non- incentive level—and they did not know what that level might. be, "Maybe," said Mr, gal, "we did not take the right step in sup- porting the vote . en setting .up a Marketing plan, for hogs, They have become more arrogant, And have tried ,:to. scuttle theprOgraM, that will save the famity type, farm." Chuckling, the speaker corn-. mented on the many political Par- ties with which critics had sought to connect the OFU. "First they thought we were communists," said . Mr, Hill, "Then they said we were CCF, In June, 1957, they said we were Conservatives. LaSt year they said we were Liberals and now we're Conservatives again. We've come the full round." He concluded with -an appeal' for continued enthusiastic support of the OFU and recollection of the many people who had worked`. hard for the OFU in the past, ending with the call, "United we • stand—divided we fall." - Farm Union President, Gordon Hill 1959 2-1958 4--1958 1958 1958 2-1958 1958 1958 1956 1955 1955 1954 1954 Cars Can Be Driven Away at the Prices Listed in This Advertisement Brussels Motors Huron County's Foremost Used Car Dealer Brussels, Ont.
