FORD­ MONARCH DEALERS MERCURY- LINCOLN-METEOR DEALERS IlRKWMflte Meteor Lieuy Farm Forum Lieury Farm Forum met at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Alex Reids on Monday night, Febru­ ary 5th, with twenty present. Two groups were formed to discuss the topic, “Should Agri­ culture Productions be Controll­ ed?” We do^believe price control is of benefit" because we have to compete with other countries for our surplus products to be sold. Where farm surplus occurs we believe the people should be educated on what products to cut down on. If immagration continues sur­ plus will be used and proper dis­ tribution. There should be very little surplus. Miss Marion Morton, Alisa Craig gave a splendid paper on “Home Economics”.

Last fall they staged a banquet in Clinton with Mr. W. E. Turn- mon Secretary Manager of the Provincial organization as guest speaker. The attendance at that meeting broke all previous re­ cords for the organization. Now at their annual meeting last Fri­ day they have a “pay as you go luncheon” and the attendance at this was even larger than at the one staged last fall. Many more people attended the busin­ ess meeting than were at the luncheon. It must have given the members of the Hog Producers organized a great deal of satis­ faction to see so many people taking an interest in this pro­ ducers organization. The committee elected for 1951 is as follows: Mr. Orval Taylor, chairman; Mr. Harry Sturdy and Mr. Bert Lobb are the other two members. Mr. Sturdy and Mr. Lobb are both Past Presidents of Huron County Federation. Plans are now undJ er way to have a full slate of ) voting* delegates attend the On­ tario Hog Producers Annual Meeting on March Sth, and 9tli. Last year we had fifteen voting delegates and there will be that many or more in 1951. There Is a feeling abroad that the Hog Producers Marketing Board has not accomplished very much during the past year. I am certain our representatives will demand a full account of the past years activity of the Provincial Marketing Board. * COMPARE fT.' test-dra/ett.'
