T11O T MUburn Cd., Ltd.) Toronto, Ont, PROVINCIAL HOG BONUS Seme weeks ago, announcement was made that because of prevailing prices, the Ontario Government pro posed to pay a bonus on hogs and cheese;, the ‘bonus on cheese not to be oyer ,2c Per lb,, and the bonus on hogs not over .$1,00 per head. The proposed bonus Is now on the way of becoming an actuality. On Monday of last week, the bonus bill was introduced in the Legisla ture. It Is expected that the bonus on cheese shall have effect from February 1st, 1941, and on hogs from April 1st, 1941, and shall re main in force until March 3‘lst, 1'942, While the exact method of pay ing the bonus will not be definitely known until the Act is finally pass ed, and regulations governing the same have been drawn up, from statements which have already ap peared in the Press, it would seem that it is the intention of the Gov ernment to pay the bonus direct to the farmer. Obviously, it cannot he expected that the Government will pay a bonus without having some satisfactory evidence that the par son applying for the bonus is ac tually entitled to it, (Fortunately this contingency has already been provided for. The provisions of the Hog Carcass Grading Regulations, which went into effect on ‘Septem ber 30th, last, require the shipper to mark each farmer’s lot of hogs, and *to forward to the grader a manifest showing the farmer’s name and address, number of hogs, and their mark of identity. The Regulations also require that a shipper make out a statement for each farmer’s lot of hogs which shall show the farmer’s name, the official grade, total weight, or weight of each grade. In actual practice, this statement is made out by the buyer, and is combined With the official carcass grading certificate. The grader certifies to the grade, and the buyers to the weight and computation of the settlement. In many instances, for the infor mation of the farmer, individual carcass weights are recorded on tht» settlement form, and by the use of symbols, indicate why the carcasses graded as they did. These statements are forwarded to the shipper along with the settle ment .cheque. Thus you will see, that a grading statement has been issued on every lot of hogs which has been officially graded by a Dominion Government hog grader, and the farmer should insist that lie get the statement from his shipper. In some cases the shippers do not wish the farmers to know too much about the grade and yield of .theft hogs, and therefore, find some ex cuse for not passing on the state ment to the farmer. The state ments have been forwarded to the shipper, and if the farmer wishes to have the statement on his hogs, he should insist on getting it from his shipper or trucker. One other thng should be men tioned. The name and address on the statement is taken from the manifest supplied by the shipper. Farmers should make a point of seeing that their name and address, of iden- on the PRESENTATION •Qn Friday evening, March 21sL part of the members of Fairfield School Section and the N-Joy-U-Ail picnic gronp met at the Fairfield school in 'honor of Mr, and Mrs. Fred Hogarth, who-are, moving to Exeter in the near future.
