PORTABLE...PTO-POWERED GEHL MIX.ALL 4•11 Homemaking Achievement Day Ontario Cream Producers held their annual meeting in the Royal York, Tuesday, No- vember 15. This meeting seem- ed to make even clearer the dif- ficult problems facing farmers. Cream Producers, are becoming fewer and fewer as more dairy men turn to the sale of whole milk. This does not mean any re- duction in ;the production of butter but simply means that the`is separated 'by a pro- cessor for butter manufacture. However it does mean a defin- ite loss of support for those who are most interested in the sale of butter, and does limit the effectiveness of their or- ganization. An even bigger problem of these people seems to be the difficulty in producing enough butter without producing a surplus. Actually the yearly surplus is barely a safe guar- antee of having enough but this has accumulated over a succession of favourable pro- duction years to the point .where it is embarrassing. A resolution recommending that the price remain as it is to producers but allowing the retail price to fluctuate down to 54 cents (with the differ= ence to be made up by govern- ment) was defeated. The main argument against this was the reluctance to have any more than the simplest of govern- ment participation. As 'an alternative a seasonal sale of butter was proposed. By this means perhaps for a (Rensall Correspondent) Mr. and Mrs. Lorne Elder with their children. Ken, Jean, Kathy and John, spent a re- 'You and your togetherness...bog wee In trouble...'

Silver teaspoons were given to all members completing their project. Other achievement days will be held in Wingham on No- veniber 26 and in Seaforth on January 21. Miss Bette Till- man, home economist for the county is in charge of 4-H Homemaking Club program, which is sponsored by the Wo- men's Institutes in their own areas, The spring project ehoseri by the clubs is "Cottons May be Smart". month each year (when it was assured that there would be a surplus) retail outlets would give three pounds for the price of two with the third pound paid for by the government. Difficulties are quite apparent in this method and if insur- mountable, the Board will then reconsider the resolution. A second resolution of par- ticular interest requested that all vegetable oil products (oth- er than soap) be grouped with lard in government production figures listed in the press. As it is now, butter substi- tutes are listed separately from lard and shortening. Thus it would appear that when sales of butter substitutes increase it means that it is at the ex- pense of butter. However but- ter substitutes go on sale at four pounds for $1.00 while shortening stays at 36 cents. Since these products are vir- tually the same many house- wives buy butter substitutes in place of shortening rather than in place of butter. After hearing, on several oc- casions, the Hog Producers be- rated by those in authority at Queen's Park for their accusa- tions' against the packers, I was surprised to hear Mr. Everett Biggs attack the milk distri- butors. According to Mr. Biggs these processors sent out let- ters to their fluid milk produc- ers urging them to oppose giv- ing a donation to the cheese producers for the export of cheese to relieve our surplus of dairy products. Just whose side is the government on? cent weekend in Hensall and Zurich. They visited with Mrs. Elder's father, John Passmore, and with Mr. and Mrs. R. M. Peck in Hensall, and with Del- bert Geiger and family near Zurich. Lorne recently returned from a five week tour of Germany, Switzerland, France, England, Scotland and Ireland. He tour- ed 35 factories all associated with the production of springs, and also took time to visit his ancestral homes in Scotland and Ireland. The Elder family came to Canada early in the last century from near Edin- burgh and Lorne visited some of the clan still living on the original farm. His mother's family (Smil- lie) came from near Belfast in Ireland in 1821 and mem- bers of this family still reside in: the village in Ireland. He had an interesting visit with these folk. Lorne has made a study of both family trees, extending over a 14 year per- iod, and took advantage of these visits to examine old family records dating back to 1720. He reports that European in- dustry is extremely busy and in fact, unable to expand' be- cause of the shortage of help, They have never known such prosperity as they are now experiencing.
