The wheat board chairman said that it was the policy of the board to keep adequate supplies of these grains at the Lakehead. He denied, that the board attempts to use orders for shipments from prairie country elevators in such a way as to influence the market, and pointed out that all shortages occurring at the Lakehead were quite unintentional. These comments by George Mclvor were made at a meet ing of the Canadian Federation of Agriculture Feed Grain Com mittee meeting held' recently in Ottawa. The committee had been formed as a result of com plaints by eastern farmers that the wheat board had not kept adequate supplies of feed gram at the Lakehead; that aq un fair disparity between cash and future prices on coarse grains made it risky to buy grain and hold it as unsold stocks in Eastern Ontario and, that bet ter terms were being offered to foreign 'buyers of feed wheat for future delivery than were being offered domestic purchasers. Following its meeting with the wheat board chairman, the com mittee passed resolutions urg ing the wheat board to see that the- domestic buyer be given equal opportunity with foreign buyers to purchase feed grains, and that the wheat board so shape its policies that Eastern grain purchasers have a mini mum of difficulty in securing coarse grains.

Campbell,, general man ager of the Ontario Stock Yards, said this week that new facili ties for feeder cattle have been opened at the yards which will provide accomodation for 3,000 cattle, Previously, feeder cattle were housed in various locations in the yards making it difficult for farmers to see all the cattle of fered from which to make theii* selections. During the periods of heavy receipts, there was a great deal of congestion in hand ling the volume of live stock. The Ontario Stock Yards Board realized that expansion of yard accommodation was necessary to meet increased receipts at the Report On Grand Bend By MRS. E. KEOWN market. It was its opinion that an area erected for feeder cattle segregated from all other cat tle would be of extrema benefit to customers purchasing replace ment cattle. The new section, with 15Q covered pens, is equipped with a new carload-capacity scale, Commission firms and order buyers have been allotted space for live stock with loading chutes close to the area. Feeder cattle arriving from Western Canada to the market .are injected for T.B. test in Win nipeg and held in isolation pens at Toronto yards until read and cleared by health of. animals branch veterinarians. Following the T.B, test the cattle are driven to the feeder division for sale . .The large volume of live stock assembled at public markets af fords farmers and large feeder buyers an opportunity to select the quality of cattle they desire for replacements in their feed Jots.

It used to be, for instance, that a farmer whose cows didn’t pro duce enough'milk, or turned out a product that didn’t test as high ,3s he thought it should figqred he was just unlucky. Today he knows better. Provincial and federal agri cultural departments have been, doing their best, aided by agri cultural colleges, to figure out the best methods of feeding and housing the animals to get top production. They have experi mented too, with the heredity factor in production. And in countless barns across the province records are. kept by farmers and breeders of pure bred animals, showing the re sults of selective breeding .and careful feeding programs. The purebred breeder and the gentleman farmer, in many cases, have been responsible for advances in breeds which have aided the qream producer. And the producer, the farmer who sends his cream ’ to the creamery, has. been passing these benefits .along to the con sumer.
