For the past three days I
attended the CAC Short
Gordon Hill Named
To FPM Board
Course on marketing and co-
operation. The basis of the
disqussion was the revert of
'the co-operative union com,
mission on relationships he,
tween. co-operatives and mar-
keting boards.
The reason for this investi-
gation seems to be the resolu,
tiori accepted at a co-operative
union hoard of directors meet-
ing requesting a study of the
question, We were not . told
where the resolution originat-
ed.
Dr. Hopper of the CFA in
introducing the discussion stat-
ed that. marketing hoards
should not own storage or pro-
cessing facilities but should be
confined to selling only, He
pointed out that monoplies
were dangerous, Supply and
demand should control the
market. He seemed fearful
that too much power in rblie
hands of marketing boards
would put too much pressure
on the market.
I will now try to give you
statements from the panel
that followed. Dr. Palmer: Co-
operatives should not be sacri-
ficed in favour of marketing
board regulations and suggest-
ed that an agricultural board
composed of two producers,
one processor and one consum-
er plus a judge should resolve
differences.
William Tilden pointed out
that niarketing boards had
come into being because co-
operatives 'had been too slow
in doing a marketing jdb for
'the farmers.
Art Musgrave was quite
firmly of the opinion that areas
of agreement far outweighed
the . disagreement and we
should not let this controversy
make a mountain out of a
Bruce McCutcheorr pointed
out that the power of direc-
tion of product made it diffi-
cult to retain the close con-
tact with the Co-op member-
ship since their produce' didn't
necessarily go to their co-op.
Charles McInnis stated that
there is plenty of room for
both. He, however felt that
there was a very real need for
farmer owned co-operative pro-
cessing plants since marketing
boards were only allowed to
live at the discretion of gov-
ernments which can and do
change.
COIN
. N 0 T. E S . .
(By JACK C. DIETRICH)
The half dollar series:
The half dollar coin has' nev-
er received the popularity
amongst the public that the
smaller denominations have,
but it is a very beautiful series
to collect. There are only a
few halves that are quite rare
and make it difficult to com-
plete the entire series. • Here is a list of halves' in
order of their rarity, 1921,
1890, 1947ML curved seven,
1894, 1888, 1871, 1904, 1899.
The first three catalog over
$100 each with the last one
cataloging at $15 in very good
condition. All the other halves
catalog less than $15.
The following is list of halves
which are occasionally found
and are worth looking for,
1948, 1947 Maple Leaf, 1936,
1934, 1932, 1931, 1905. Remem-
ber that all coins previous to
1953 that are in uncirculated
condition command a premium
even though they are not rare.
Remember fellow collectors,
to-night is our third' meeting
and it is being held at the
Clinton town hall at 8 o'clock.
Come out and support your
club.
Officials of the Ontario
Wheat Producers' Marketing
Board have been advised that
additional sales of Ontario soft
wheat may be possible.
According to the Canadian
Foreign Trade Service, the sale
of 542,000 bushels of Ontario
soft winter wheat to the Egyp-
tian Government last fall was
the first shipment of any kind
of Canadian wheat to Egypt
in more ,than six years.
The sale of Ontario wheat
to Egypt was a portion of
more than 1,500,000 bushels
purchased by the Ontario
Wheat Producers Marketing
Board and representing the
majority of purchases grading
No. 3 due to light weight
wheat.
The report indicates the
wheat was used for milling and
the flour used for baking.
Although Egypt's import re-
quirements are gradually in-
creasing and .are presently ab-
out one and one quarter million
tons. annually, only a small
quantity is used' for the type
of bread known to Canada. The
majority goes into unleavened
baked products.

Hog Price Support
Up One Dollar
For 1962 Year
The Agricultural Stabiliza-
tion Board has been authorized
to support the price of hogs
in 1962 'at $23.65 per hundred-
weight for Grade A's, on a
national average basis.
This was announced Decem-
ber 22 'by Agriculture Minister
Alvin Hamilton. The support
price is $1.00 higher than it
has been for the past 'two
years.
Method of support is a de-
ficiency payment on a maxi-
mum of 100 Grade A or Grade
B hogs for each producer. The
payment would be the amount
by which the national average
price 'for the year falls below
the support
Mr. Hamilton coupled his an-
nouncement with a warning
against increasing production.
In setting a higher level of sup-
port, he said, the Government
recognized the increased' cost
of feed that resulted from last
year's drought on the prairies.
"Production is now nicely
balanced with demand and the
effect has been satisfactory
prices to producers," the Min-
ister noted.
National average price for
Grade A hogS' during the paSt
year is estimated at $27.25 per
hundredweight and, with the
support level at $22.65, no de-
ficiency payment is necessary.
The 1962 support of $23.65
per hundredweight will be just
under 90 percent of the 10-year
average. Last year's support
level of $22.65 was about 83
percent of the average price
for the preceding 10 years.
