By GORDON M. GREIG Cattle rustling lias started up
The Huron County Federation asain in Huron County — this
time during the months when
cattle are stabled for winter.of Agriculture executive wish to I
extend to all Huron County
farmers a wish for a happy and
prosperous 1952.
The year 1951 has been a
fairly successful year from the
farmer’s point of view. Until the
drop took place in the price of
hogs and poultry products, farm
ers were experiencing one of our
better years financially. The
sharp drop in pork prices and
poultry prices is a recurrence of
the experience we had in the
fall of 1949, and if we do not
take some action it will recall’
again during the fall production
season.
Pork prices are moving up
slowly and may soon reach a
price where it will permit the
farmer to receive at least his
cost of production.
Egg production for the year
1951 was only 16,000 cases over
the 1950 production year. The
year 1950, you recall, was one
in which large imports of eggs
were made to fill the demand.
There is no surplus production
in the egg market; it is simply
a case of poor distribution.
When hatcheries start drawing
from the supply to fill the hea
vy demand for spring chicks
there should be a strengthening
of the egg market. An increase
in the number of early chicks
would certainly help to improve
the distribution of eggs over a
longer period and would help to
avoid the sharp price drop that
we experience in the late fall
and early winter.
Over production has spoiled
the price on the broiler market
at the present dime. This is one
section of the poultry industry
that could become very unstable
due to the short time it takes
to get into the broiler business
and out again.
SAINTSBURY
The laymen of the Anglican
Church of the Deanery of Perth

Patrick’s Church on Friday eve

Reports would indicate that
farmers are not reporting thefts
promptly and in some cases not
reporting thefts at all. We can
not be critical of our police
authorities if we do not give
them a fair chance by reporting
missing animals as soon as dis
covered. Perhaps the night pat
rol of the Provincial Police could
do a lot to check these thefts
if they would check on some of
the pick-up trucks that travel
the roads at very unusual hours.
We have heard of several such
cases where trucks were chased
from farm yards where poultry
flocks were out on range. Per
haps these unscrupulous people
are now in the drover business
as it is considered much better
than the poultry business at the
present time.
Cattle rustling in the past has
been a very serious crime. In
many recent cases the sentence
handed out has shown that some
leniency has been given to peo
ple who have been apprehended
in the act of stealing from un
protected farms. If farmers are
going to have to lock their cat
tle barns and road gates every
night it will eventually lead to
increased costs to the consumer.
Cubs - Guides
Just For Howls
I rpally didn’t have a chance
to say much about the Christ
mas party (they tell me there
wasn't room,, in the paper and I
did miss the guide news too), I
saved my Christmas nut that
you left for my Grandmother’s
Christmas present and she says
"Thanks”.
About tne meeting on Monday
night, it seems as if you aren’t
getting ahead very fast and
there are lots of tests to pass.
Akela has suggested that every-,
one bring a pencil next week and
take down the tests you can do
at home to bring to the meeting.
That way some of you will be
able to get,well into second star
tests.
This month there will be a
surprise check on all uniforms.
You should have your necker
chief clean every meeting and it
should be folded so that it has
about eight inches showing at
the back. Shoes must be clean
and if you have a hole in your
socks, try mending them your
self for your homemaker badge.
Here are some of the tests you
can work on at home: Somer
sault, Leapfrog and Hopping,
Ball Throwing, Skipping, Book
Balancing, Telling Time, Sav
ing’s Bank, Model, Cleaning
Boots, Folding Clothes.
—See you next week at a much
quieter meeting.

Guide Talk
I hope there weren’t too many
towns-folk around the Legion
Hall Monday- night. They might
get a bad impression of Girl
Guides. Yes it happened again
didn’t it girls? But please don’t
blame Captain. She too would
appreciate knowing when there
is another meeting at the hall.
Did we hear complaints?
Guides aren’t supposed to com
plain but on the other hand
some complaints are justified
this time. We do work on our
tests at home, take pride in our
uniforms for each meeting and
when we arrive at the meeting,
the routine we follow isn’t just
games and songs, it lias usually
been planned long before hand,
sometimes a week or longer. So
as you can see if we miss a meet
ing it is more than just a slight
interruption in our schedule.
We don’t have a chip on our
shoulder, we don’t mind missing
the occasional meeting but we
would like to know before we
get all ready and down to the.
hall.
"Smiling and singing under all
difficulties” and the words of
our founder "Work with an eag
er will, think kindness in your
heart” are two mottos we try to
live up to.
These things we remember and
in so doing, we hope that we can
be remembered.
The First Exeter Guides
Today no one works for nothing
so why should the farmer?
In a press release from the
Dairy Farmers of Canada we
find a few interesting figures on
the price of butter in several
countries ill the northern hemis
phere.
"Recent figures on the price
of butter, compiled in Britain,
show that the Canadian price is
above average. In Belgium the
price is about 82 cents per
pound; in France 75 cents per
pound; in United States, 72
cents; and in Canada, 68 cents.
The German price is about the
same as Canada. Of the coun
tries listed oply in Denmark, the
Irish Republic, and the United
Kingdom are the prices lower
than in Canada.”
