The crop is placed at 12,630,000 lbs. of clean seed, which is 39% more than the 13-year avei'age. If this amount is realized it will he the biggest eroi> since 19 46. The record price for Timothy seed which prevailed during the last two seasons has encouraged farmers in established producing areas and elsewhere to harvest seed. Production in Northern ar­ eas of Quebec and Ontario has been stimulated and, as a result, a considerable volume of seed is expected from these relatively new production areas. The hay crop in many sections also am­ ounted to more than had been expected early in the season and some favorable haying weather occurred which together prompt­ ed farmers to leave a greater ac­ reage for seed production. In some areas of Ontario yields have been reported as high as 300 lbs. per acre. However, in most districts, yields will aver­ age about 200 lbs., which ex­ ceeds the average of recent years.

Through this ser­ vice thousands of children and adults have been permitted to see picturesque and educational films of parts of Canada that they may never be permitted to view in their natural state. , The cost of this service was originally born by the National Film Board but as time went on the financial burden was shifted to the sponsoring organization until this year the grant has been discontinued. In its place we have the Film Board establish­ ing a volunteer circuit in the county, with a Film Committee in each township responsible foi' the showings there. This com­ mittee will be composed of rep­ resentatives from all interested organizations within the town­ ship; such as Township Federa­ tion, Womens' Institute, church groups, service .clubs, school j Boards, etc. j There will be set ,up a j County Film Council composed of representatives from Town­ ship Committees. This year two projectors will be available in Hurqn County and two complete sets of films. The Film Board will eventually withdraw these machines and every township wishing to con­ tinue will have to purchase a projector of their own or use ! one belonging to a service club or school area, etc. The National Film Board will train people in each township to I operate the machine. Their ser­ vices will be given free of charge. This system puts the success of the film showings squarely on the township committees jinless I you appoint interested and active j membes to your committee the | chances for the survival of this i very worthwhile service in yonr | community are very small. ’ The Huron County Federation of Agriculture has been pleased I to sponsor such a worthwhile I project for the past six .years 1 and will remain an interested 1 member of the County Film Council. «■W.l.

This in­ crease was made up almost en­ tirely by the price of beef from 194.9 to 1950.’Pork, butter and eggs were all down in price. In comparison with this in­ crease in the price of food sup­ plies originating on the farm, we find that industrial labour re­ ceived an increase in wages of $1.80 per week or more than four times, the increase in the cost of food. Government records show that from June 1, 1949 to June 1, 1950 food index increased 3%; rental index 8.4% and fuel and lighting increased’ 6.5%. Speaking on the subject of economic controls in the event of another global war, Dr. Herb Hannam, the president of the Canadian Federation of Agricul­ ture, has this to say, "If in the event of another war the econo­ my is to be controlled, a better balance can be established by I Mrs. to in Auto production has increased first New 1,3 88 per cent since the motor show was held in York 50 years ago,* * * * Hunters have so decimated moose in Canada that they are in danger of 'becoming extinct. 41 3 6 v O 31 30 PLYMOUTH COUPE, Bypass.

"When Canada .adopts econo­ mic controls again there should be a definite agreement that such controls would not be released until all danger of inflation, such as we have experienced in the past few years has passed. "While we do not ^believe that another war is inevitable, yet the threat of war is sufficiently great that a program of all-round pre­ paredness is the only wise course. For economic controls, the gov­ ernment would be well advised to name a commission immediately to study and recommend the proper balance within our econo­ my which would be used as a basis for just and effective over­ all controls, if and when they are needed," J.
