Speed Up Direct,ion Plan

In an effort to Intake the pres-
tilt downward 0 trend in hog
prices,- the Ontario Hog Produc-
ers' Co.operative is speeding up
its hogs. directional program,
Charles McInnis, president of the
co-operative, has announced. -
Mr. McInnis said that at a
meeting of the directors of the
Hog Marketing Board and the co-
operative held this week, new
orders have been passed extend-
ing the hog directional program
into five more counties bringing
the total number of counties

Beet Harvest
Under Way.
Sugar beet stations at KiPpen
and Centralia will open this
week, according to district field -
man, Bill Amos of Parkhill.
'The station at Kippen, ope-
rated for the first time lad year
will star t receiving deliveries
Thursday and the Centarlia de-
pot will be open- Friday.
"The crop,. looks . very good,"
Amos 'said, 'Tonnage should be
better than last year."
. Beet acreage in this district
4s about the Wage as last year.
Theee• is an intreaee in the Kip -
pen area, offset by a slight de-
crease' in the. •Centralia district.
A demonliration of, new sugar
beet harvesting equipment and
precisioneplanters was held Mon-
day at the farm of Lloyd Level],
Keppen, The event was spon-
sored by the Canada and Domi-
nion 'Sugar Co., Chatham. .
r Three companies demon-
strated harvesting machines to
growers,
brought under 'the directional
program are Wentworth, Lamb -
ton, Kent, Essex and Elgin, The,
directional order g become effec-1
tive foe these counties on October ;
1.4 and require that all trans-
porters must deliver hogs origi-
nating from these counties to,the
assembly points of the Ontario !
Hog Producers' Co-operative,
Processors must secure hogs
originating from these counties
only at the co-operative's assem-
bly points,
Mr. McInnis said that the Hog
Marketing Board hopes that once
the hog directional program has
been extended to all parts of
OritaHo,,, the current downward
trend of Ontario hog prices fol-
lowing the movement of Chicago
and Western Canada prices
might be braked,
"Once the Marketing agency
has full control of all Ontario
hogs," he said, "the board is
determined to prevedt • sharp
price drops in anticipation of
small surplus markets. The trier-
keting agency is firmly of the
opinion that when all hogs in
Ontario are on open markets, the
marketing agency will be able to
prevent these severe price
slumps which usually are un-
justified and certainly are unfair
to the producer."
