Since the vote was taken,
the Ontario Bean Growers Mar
keting Board has given the

shels of beans. Present storage

For .some reason -a rise of one
cent in the price of a quart of
milk can stir more panic in the
heart Of a housewife than al
most anything else . . . Consider
this, tho, folks: When you pay
27 cents for a quart of milk,
the farmer who milks the cow,
ge)ts something less than half
of that . . .
And while you’re thinking
about farmers income consider
the chop who 15 years ago
bought a combine for $3,000 ...
A‘ similar machine today costs
nearer $12,000 and neither miilk
(nor any other farm product)
has quadrupled in the past 15
