This minister suggested that anyone worried about money should ask himself if he is ,thinking lack, "There is a cur- ious law that if you think lack you tend to create a condition of lack." How true it is! In this mod- ern age is there anyone who has everything he wants?

In the January 1964 issue, that arrived yesterday, the question is asked, "Are You Worried About Money?".

Let's take this minister's ad- vice to overcome our money worries and think abundance. Above all at this time let us think of our blessings. As you read this are you cold? Did you go hungry to bed last night? Have you en- ough clothes to keep you rea- sonably' comfortable as you venture out in our brisk Can- adian winter? • When we think of the things we really need our money goes a long way and at this Christ- mas season it will also, go Tar enough to permit us in our abundance to give a little to those less fortunate than our- selves. Two American soldiers were spending Christmas on patrol in the jungles of Vietnam, amidst hardship a n d poverty hard for us to believe. One remarked, "What a wretched way to spend Christmas". To which the other replied, "Yes! But it could be worse; we might have been, born here". Yes at this time of year let us think of the abundance of our blessings in times of joy, in times of hardship and ,sor- row and at this Christmas sea- son let us above all remember the most abundant blessing of all — the gift of the Christ Child that has brought us the strength to face this life with confidence and to' hope for, that life to come.

THE KINSMEN CLUB OF CLINTON', Although members of parlia- ment sympathized with and supported a move to protect farmers' produce in the event of a bankruptcy of a processor or grain mill, they painted out other problems were involved. T h e discussion, developed from HFA's support of a pri- vate member's bill :in Ottawa which would give farmers sec- ond priority to employees when the assets of a bankrupt firm are being distributed. Under the bank act, farm produce stored by a processor or mill may be used as collater- al by the firm, whether or not it has been purchased. If the firm goes bankrupt, this pro- duce may be seized by the creda itors, Alfred Warner, hog producer representative, said "this is a serious situation 'for us and we feel we as producers should stand in 'the same category as labor." Hp asked for the sup- port of 'the federal •members for the private members' bill now before parliament. MP Marvin Howe said he "The milk industry looks bet- ter than it has for years," said Lorne Bodges, RR 1, Goderich, chairman of the Ontario Con- centrated Milk Producers' As- sociation. He was one of 'two representatives reporting f o r dairymen in the county; the other was Horace Delbridge, RR 1, Woodham, chairman of Huron 'cream producers. Hodges reported ,cheese pro- duction has used up this year's dairy supply. He also noted 'the favorable treed in butter which showed a per capita 'increase in consumption in comparison to a slight decrease in the mar- garine consumption. Both men urged that 'the fed, eraI government's 12e-per- pound consumer 'subsidy be con- tinued and both lauded the pro- Marketing prospects for the , white bean crop continue to look bright, according 'to pro- vincial drier:tor Bob Allan, Brucefield. He reported last year's 'crop had been sold direct to Europe and that, 'because of a poor crop 'again this year, sales shoUld be excellent, The board, 'he said, has been able to return growers 79c for the 77c per cwt. levy, because of 'the interest tamed by invest- ing the funds which were net required.

"Few people know what rural development and ARDA stand for." ARDA, he pointed out, is •a government program covering the federal and provincial fields, designed to undertake major projects to redevelop marginal farm areas 'into bet- ter land uses. The rural corn- sympathized with the view but pointed out such an amendment could have 'the effect of serious- ly limiting competition 'among processors. Farm produce, he noted, :helps to provide working capital for firms, which might not otherwise be able to oper- ate, "We have to be cdreful that we don't reduce competition among the processors and de- crease the markets for farm produce. I'm certainly not against it and I would support some legislation to this effect which would not encourage mo- nopoly of trade." He pointed out, that the far- mer did not have quite as much at stake as the employees of the firm who lose 'their entire source of income. HoWe also explained the pro- cedure involVed in private members' bills, which rarely pass the house. If they are found to have merit after con- siderable investigation, they 'are usually re-introduced 'by 'the government as an amendment to . existing legislation which vincial government's legisla- tion to require margarine manufacturers to identify the composition of 'the product on the package. Bodges said he looked for- ward 'to the formulation of a marketing plan for milk and he hoped the government would permit it 'to operate for a per- iod of two years before' produc- ers vote on it, Rodges said the 50c premium for quality milk has been the "best thing to' hit the industry in recent years". A few years ago only five to 10 percent of marketed milk was first qual- ity; now about 50 percent 'is 'top grade , He was concerned however, that not all plants are paying 'the premium, which is not corn- The growers' board 'has de- cided to enlarge its processing plant in London to handle a larger quantity of beans. Al- though 'there has been opposi- tion to this move from the trade, "we feel we should be in 'the business to know wheth- er or not we need to export". SEED PROBLEM Allen indicated concern over the problem of seed production, since the gov't has decided to abandon its development pro- gran).- 'in the Bridgetown area in view of the disease problem discourage farmers from taking some of the offers being Made by the trade for 'the establish- ment of 'these large units. It's a pretty attractive proposition from the feed dealer's point of view and they 'have attractive figures to give the farmers", Milts also indicated egg pro- duction 'is becoming an "off- the-farre" project, Bob Blaiadfock reported the beard hopes ft, have an egg marketing plan in effect satin after the new year and details are being worked out by the a r iii ProdttotS Marketing The minister indicated more property is being aonsidered for purchase. "The park will be a benefit both to Huron arid all of Southwestern Ontario. It is too 'good a properti to remain in private hands". MacNaugh- ton has spearheaded, 'this pro- ject, in co-operation with county council, One unique development , al- ready established to encourage better land use in Huron the county's reforestation pro- gram, which undertakes 'the. plaoting of •'some 200,000 trees each year. Said Ag Rep D. H, Miles; "No other county in On- tario has such 'a four-way pro- gram in which 'the province, county and township co-operate with the farmer to encourage proper 'woodlot development". MP Marvin Howe said he was not intimately familiar With the ARDA program but he recalled the significant figureS used by former agriculture minister Al- vin Hamilton 'to justify the need for ARDA. Statistics show that 25 percent of the farms in Canada provide only three percent of the national produc- tion, 'indicating this land could be put to better use. • proval by the House. Huron MPP C. S. MacNaugh, ton pointed out the provincial grain elevator and storage act provides some measure of pro- tection to producers. The parliamentary members agreed that one of the most effective ways 'to develop legis- lation• was to incorporate re- commendations in the Federa- tion's annual brief to govern- ments. Gordon Hill suggested farm organizations should point out the risk 'to producers to make them more cautious 'about firms to which they sell. He knew of several instances, he said, where farmers had lost returns through bankruptcy but they had sold to the firms fully aware of the risk.' Lloyd Lovell ,wondered why processors 'should be allowed to start business without sound financing. MP Howe pointed out the owner of the firm suffers the greatest loss because his per- sonal 'investment disappears en- tirely. pra'ctica'lly ensures their ,ap- pulsory. LOWEST INCOME Delbridge said cream produc- ers were the lowest ,income group of the dairy industry and he felt there should be encour- agement from the provincial level for a quality product. He revealed that of the total dairy production, 27 percent went into butter, 12 percent into cheese, 11 percent into ice cream and 50 percent was mar- keted as' fluid milk. Gordon Hill reported figures from the National Dairy Advi- sory -Committee which indicated Canado. Must have at least 100 million pounds of butter avail- able at all tunes---70 million for consumer supply and 30 mil- lion as insurance against a dry summer. there. Because the gov't doesn't feel it can afford to provide the per- sonnel required 'to develop new seed in duplication of what is being done in Michigan, the pro- posal now is 'to bring in all seed from 'the U.S. State. Allen felt the foundation growers in Ontario "should not be kicked out" and has propos, ed that the final generation should be grown in Ontario, Huron MP C. S. Maclolaugh- ton, formerly in the seed 'busi- ness, felt the latter suggestion was "reasonable", the as- sociation, Ile said 'the board hoped to get a checkoff of one-tenth of a' cent pee dozen tO finance a pro- Motion program through 'the Poultry Procleotion Institute. Godori. Hill, area member of the FPMB, said it was possible there will be sonic information meetings on, the nem?' marketing plan before it is put into effect. Present !thinking is 'to operate the plan for about two years before 'a vote is taken on, it, but the provincial board Wants 'to be aSsured that the plan will be supported by •the producers tore it is put intoo effect.
