With thoughts of Remem-
brance Day in mind as I write
this . the poem "In Flanders
Field" is most appropriate, I
feel so often that we only re-
member the pain and the sor-
row at the loss of loved ones
that this day commemerates.
Let us also remember they
passed a torch to us to uphold,
That we failed in this sacred
trust is amply proven by the
.last war and re -proven in the
current state of world affairs.
-World affairs are always a
little bewildering to most of us
but this same idea was brought
much closer to home thin past
week.
The passing of Cliff Weaver,
a man devotedto the Dairy
Industry for many years, was
a decided shock. He was not
an old man, yet the strains of
years of responsibility in dairy
industry welfare had taken
their toll which resulted in a
sudden fatal heart attack.
Last Wednesday morning, at
the OFA Annual it was an-
nounced that Hugh Bailey also
had suffered a fatal heart at-
tack Mr. Bailey had been a
leading figure in the Farm-
ers' Co -Operative movement
over the ' years and again
the strain and stress had exact-
ed their price for he, too, I
believe, was little over sixty.
Hector Arnold, long time
leading figure and burden bear-
er in the cheese industry, was
removed from his hotel room to
hospital in Toronto suffering
what we sincerely hope is a
slight heart attack.
These men along with their
families have made many,' sac -

Co-ops should buy all types of
produce from' the farmers as
well as sell them goods and
services, F .a i r f i e l d Forum
agreed Monday night at their
first season of the meeting,
The topic dealt with the ser-
vices provided by co-ops and
the improvements which they
could make. In addition to ur-
ging more marketing services,
the Fairfield group felt the co-
ops could work with farmers
more closely in their opera-
tions.

rifices for the betterment of
agricultural producers yet we
were told that there is a larger
percentage of borrowed capital
for agricultural production,
more delinquent accounts at feed
mills, andmore back taxes on
farms than at any time in his-
tory. That we would have been
worse off without the efforts of
'these men and many others
like them we can be sure. How
much worse off, we will never
know.
Just as those, whom we re-
member on November 11, left
us a challenge so do those, who
have been our farm leaders,
leaves us a challenge.
That we have tailed is ap-
parent since, after some 15
years of unprecedented abun-
dant harvests, we have neither
found prosperity ourselves nor
succeeded in relieving the hun-
ger of many millions through%
out the world.
We must not give up. In con-
tinuing effort to solve our prob-
lems many farmers, who, no
doubt, could very well have
found plenty to keep them busy
at home, took time out to at-
tend the OFA annual meeting
in Toronto last week.

nery act
uest forforO.ntarafarip was one
of the important motions to be
passed at the 25th annual con-
vention of the Ontario F:edera-
lion of Agriculture in 'Toronto
on November 6, 7 and 8.
if such .an act is developed
by the provincial government
it will be the fourth farm tna-
chinery act in Canada. The dif-
ficulty many farmers have had
recently in Ontario of getting
spare parts, even at main dis-
tributing centres, prompted
OFA delegatesto make their
move,.
The last session of the con-
vention .on November 8, was a
race against tone in order
to
get through the gigantic task
of deliberating on more than
60 resolutions, As it turned
out, a number had to be re-
ferred to future members'
meetings, but 49 resolution did
receive the serious attention of
the representatives from farm
organizations throughout On-
tario,
One of the most far-reaching
resolutions to be passed dealt
with rehabilitation and resource
development, a direct reference
to Bill C 77 (agricultural reha-
bilitation and d o p m e n t
act) introduced by Hon. Alvin
Hamilton, federal minister of
agriculture The OFA resolu-
tion called for full provincial
government participation in'
such a program, and asked
OFA to establish a special com-
mittee to work on theprogram
also.
L. E. Cardiff, Huron MP, and
parliamentary secretary to the
Hon, Alvin Hamilton, read the
address of the ministerof ag-
riculture which outlined the
achievements of the agr'icul-'
ture department and discussed
some of the aspects of Bill C
77. Mr. Hamilton was unable
to attend the meeting due to
an FAO meeting he is attending
in Rome, Italy.
Other resolutions of import- j
ante were passed and included:.
a request for ,enforcement of
the legislation requiring bills
of lading when transporting
livestock;
A request to have the ;finan-
cial security of community
livestock sale, barns increased
to protect eonsignors of live-
stock;

port further development of

Huron MP Elston Cardiff,
iparliamentary
secretary to Ag-
riculture Mi n i s t e r Hamilton,
!gave his personal support to a
resolution at the OFA meeting
in Toronto requesting the es-
tablishment of a national sugar
policy.
' Mr. Cardiff stressed the need
for such a policy, not only from
the standpoint of making it
economically possible for the
growers to continue producing
beet b t 1 f th

of national defence.
He promised his whole-
ihearted support in bringing the
',industry's problem to the at-
tention of the government.
George Higgs, a director of
the Ontario sugar beet grow-
ers' marketing board, warned
that the Ontario industry may
be forced to a complete shut-
down
t-
down
if a healthy sugar beet
policy for Canada is not estab-
lished.
The crux of the problem, he
told the meeting, "has been the
low world prices of raw cane
sugar, more correctly termed
'homeless sugar'." About six
millions tons of this sugar
is placed on the world market
at very depressed prices dur-
ing peacetime but in times of
