iiuron county hag directors
met June 13 to outline their cam-
paign plan for the coming vote.
A county •committee was ap-
pointed and it is -their respon-
sibility to see that committees
are established in each town-
ship.
This vote presents the greatest
challenge that has faced farm
producers. If everyone will give
a little effort to this campaign
there will be a very large per-
centage- voting and success is
certain. In Huron, we are not
. interested in having 66 and 2/3 in
favour; we want 85r.%, in favour.
Furth ere arrangements were
made for conducting the Huron
' County Federation of Agricul-
ture worship service, July 13, at
the United Church summer camp,
Goderich.
Huron County Federation of
Agriculture held its directors
mecting June 9 witit President
Winston Shapton presiding. We
are glad to report, that we had
several members from the
!townships attending along with
the county directors, We hope
; that they found the meeting in-
! Wresting and hope more will
; come next time.
Warren Zurbrigg, county mem-
ber to the 0.F.A., reported on
the last meeting in Toronto. The
finances of the organization were
discussed and it was felt that a
study of this problem should be
made. It would be helpful if
commodity groups could develop
some standard of contribution
rather than the grant system
which varies from year to year.
;Where counties have difficulty
:in meeting their dues it seemed
that better organization at town-
Iship level would eliminate this
:problem. .
In discussing the stabilized
prices, Mr. Zurbrigg reported
considerable disssa tisfaction.
Ilowever it is becoming more
and more apparent that farmers
will have to do a better job of
establishing their costs of pro-
duction before much can be ac-
complished either with supports
i or deficiency payments.
In reporting for the poultry
• producers, Carl Hemingway
stated that the Ontario poultry
producers executive was in-
formed that in order to get the
promotional plan accepted by'
the Farm Products Marketing
Board a petition endorsing the
plan "%Atilt have to be signed by at
!least 60 of all poultry pro-
! lucers, based on the last census
figures.
! Since 23e1:- of the listed poultry
producers in Huron county have
less than 50 hens and since about
of the poultry producers in
Ontario have less than 100 hens
this 60'7- of all producers seems
unrealistic. There are several
counties with almost 200 pro-
ducers with less than 8 hens. 1
I doubt if these producers have
' any interest in the price of eggs.
There was also some difference
, of opinion as to the meaning of
other clauses in the petition. Re-
presentatives of the executive
will meet with the minister and.

'Board for clarification on these
