The marketing of farm products
is the popular topic for' discussion
and it is important that farmers
knew not only the facts but also
the implications, •
I was very interested in a quo-
tation, given, from one of our cur-
rent Ancient history books by
James Haggerty at the Elma
township Federation of Agricul-
ture meeting February 18. "It is
only when forces' are 'equal that
the question of rights arises. When
forces are unequal the strong does
what he can and the weak suffers
what he must."
Could this apply to Hog Mark-
eting? In former years the strong
packing corporation did what he
could namely gained control of the
hogs by bonusing the weaker
trucker and the trucker, stronger
than the individual and protected
by PCV licensing, gathered up
the hogs from the weaker indiv-
idital farmer who suffered what he
must. There was no question of
rights. This was just accepted as
the way things were done.
Now that the Ontario Hog Pro-
ducers has become a strong bargain-
ing force in the sale of hogs the,
question of rights becomes a vital
issue. In this case the point of
contention is who shall have the
right to allocate the supply of
hogs
The •opposition has been imply-
ing that the Hog Producers Mar-
keting Board has the sole power
to allocate hogs to the various
packers. This is not true, Since
the Marketing Board must always
sell in the best interests of the
producer any packing plant can
take over the right to allocate the
desired number of hogs to itself
simply by bidding the higher price.
It is only in the case of identical
bids that the Board has any pow-
er of allocation, In this case the
Board is obliged to sell the hogs
on some other consideration, in the
best interests of the Producer.
The packer who can process
quickest, who is closest to the
point of assembly, or who consis-
tently returns favourably dressing
percentage, or who will sell im-
mediately into the trade rather
than the one who is storing pork
will get the hogs.
The fact that the matter of right

Farmers Strength Raises Question
Of "Who Has The Righti Of Sale
(By J. Carl Hemingway)
has come up would seem to prove
that farmers now have equal
strength in the market place as
far as hogs are concerned.
Marketing of 'beef was also dis-
cussed and while the past doesn't
seem too bad there was definite
fear expressed for the future. It
is meowed that one of the weal-
thiest financiers in Cenada is
about to set up a 5,000 head cat-
tle feeding station in Huron Coun-
ty. He has refuse from another
enterprise that will supply 'him
with cheap fattening ration, he
has shares in the packing industry,
and controls a large retail chain,
With a good market for the re-
fuse and a good profit on proCes-
sing and retailing he doesn't have
to worry about -a profit on his
feeding. The only answer for the
farmer is Co-op Marketing, proces-
sing and retailing.
