Britain to Buy More Bacon
The demand for Canadian bacon
for the next four years was clari
fied when Hon. James G. Gardiner,
Dominion Minister of Agriculture,
recently announced the results’ of
negotiations \with the British Min
istry of Food. The United Kingdom
is prepared to purchase, the maxi
mum supplies which Canada can
provide in 1946, 1947 and 1948.
Further discussions are to 'be held
before January, 1947 to consider
requirements for 1949.
The contract price for Grade A
Wiltshires per 100 pounds f.o.fo.
seaboard was raised to $25. effect
ive April 1, 1946 and will continue
to December 31, 1947. The price
for the 1948 agreement will be es
tablished at a later date but will
not be below the $22.50, same basis,
which was effective during the
1944-45 agreement,
Following this announcement the
Wartime Prices and Trade Board
declared an increase of 2 % bents
per pound, carcass basis, in dom
estic wholesale price ceilings for
porki The relationship betw’e.en the
domestic and export price, Which
has been in effect during' the past
two years, will be maintained.
These increases in bacon prices
represent an increase of approx
imately $3. per hog. However, the
quality premiums of $3. per Grade
A carcass and ■$2, per -Grade B car
cass liave been reduced by $1. so
that the net increas'd is $2. per hog.
This1 increased price will, it is
hoped add a stimulus to hog pro
duction, sayd the Review.

The municipal councils of the
surrounding districts were guests
of the Legion, Monday night, to
hear a very interesting and infor
mative lecture on Soil Conserva
tion which was illustrated by slides.
•The speaker, Mr, Smiths Middle- sex County- Engineer, based his’
talk on the eoil conservation pro
gram as he had seen it along with
other Canadians on a trip through
the State of Ohio where it is being practiced with a great deal of suc
cess,.
Mr, Smith stated that while
were fortunate in being in one
the best agricultural districts
compared to the hilly country
Ohio we .still had to contend with
soil erosion to a degree. Our soil
has been worked for only around
a hundred years and already it is
showing signs of deterioration- For
this reason the speaker thought
that the progressive farmer should
interest himself in the soil conser
vation program.
In Ohio farmers strip their fields
usually with alfalfa to check the
water from carrying off the top
soil after rain falls, which was
shown in the illustrations. Contour
plowing, new methods of discing,
and the - establishing of ponds on
farms were other features that the
lecturer described and illustrated.
Reeve Berry, of Usborne, express
ed the opinion of the group when
he said that the lecture was one
of the bright -lights of his career.
The Legion has accepted an in
vitation to a Drumhead service on
Sunday, June 2nd, at Clinton, where
Major Foote V.C., will, be the guest
speaker. Major Foote has prom
ised to visit the Exeter-Hensall
branch in the fall.
