Roy Coulter, Campbellville, chairman of the Ontario Wheat Producers' Marketing Board, disclosed that a recent provin- cial survey conducted by the board indicates the overall de- crease, with the only increases confined to 10 out of 32 of the major producing counties in the pi:ovine e, Coulter said that most areas reported germination was good and that a normal growth was established prior to the setting in of winter. The present snow cover is beneficial in protecting the plants and it is hoped that the crop will not suffer from ice damage later on, which resulted in 23% of last year's crop being winterkilled, he said. "Even with a relatively small crop last fall, down about 5 million bushel s from the nor- mal, the marketing board has been called upon to purchase close to 900,000 bushels from dealers who were unable to market this amount." "However, the majority of the marketing board purchases eet en 0 0 0 oph ishc Area growers are optimistic about the introduction of a new federal sugar beet policy which will provide better returns, it was indicated at the an nu al meeting of Huron district of the Ontario Sugar Beet Growers' Board here last week. Current sugar price is well up over last year and storage is not abnormally high, indi- cating a bright situation for growers. "I'm very optimistic about the whole picture," said dis- trict director Lloyd Lovell, Kippen, who was re-elected at the local meeting. A good number of growers heard John Van Raay, chairman of the provincial board, and George Higgs, Dresden district director, discuss the latest de- velopments. Committeemen elected to re- present this area are Malcolm Davidson, Maurice Heist, Lloyd Lovell, William Coleman, and Joe Ondrejicka. Mothers Bros CHRYSLER + PLYMOUTH + VALIANT +.

Smaller wheat crop estimated for 1963 Meat inspectlon at Goderich costs consumers about four cents a pound extra, the annual conference of Federation of Ag- riculture representatives and parliamentary representatives was told at Clinton. "In Goderich," said Lorne Rodges, of Goderich township, "the butchers went together and have one abattoir. The meat is inspected, and it is what this (meat inspection) bill pro- vides, but it costs somewhere about four cents a pound more for meat, and gives the chain stores a chancet to get in there. The abbattoir is costly to keep up, and they have to charge about four cents a pound more `for meat." (The cost of inspection at Goderich abattoir would never at any time exceed a half-cent going to resell. Whether or not we enforce this, consumers are going to demand more and more inspected meat and poultry, and we might as well recognize it." Later in the meeting, Albert Bacon, of Belgrave, president of Huron County Hog Producers' Association, commented upon these references to meat in- spection and cost and said: "That 'should go right through with cattle and poultry. Our government would do well to get right into it head first." In 1960 there were 186,800 federal government employees, 154,943 provincial government employees and 142,7.80 muni- cipal government employee s who paid personal income taxes, and their combined income was $1,984,900,000.

Coulter said a recent sales push by the board has disposed of all but 280,000 bushels lo- cated at Kingston and Montreal. He pointed out that the export market has been rather slow for the past few months and concerted effort s are being made by the marketing board to establish increased use of Ontario soft white winter wheat in feeding programs, especially in the East. In line with this, he said, the board recently presented a proposal to officials of the de- partment of agriculture in Ot- tawa recommending the follow- ing: "That the federal government assume freight costs of Ontario wheat to terminal elevators in Ontario that are strategically located for livestock feeders' needs," U • 1 Soil, crop convention to feature corn feed II I a I II I EXETER DISTRICT 91/1ilk Quota Time" is an ideal time to start raising your calves on Co-op Milk Replacer, a top quality whole milk substitute Simply mix with water, according to directions, and start feed- ing this to your calves at 2 to 3 days.

At a meeting in Clinton last week, FAME director Carl He- mingway reported the Huron campaign was still over $30,- 000 short of its minimum ob- jective of $106,000. At one point, the local of- ficials hoped to sell over $200,- 000 worth of shares in Huron but, after more than a year's efforts, total amount sold to date is about $75,000. Mr. Hemingway said "there definitely is going to be a plant in the Huron-Perth area but no location has been selected yet." He indicated it was not likely the site would be chosen until after the first plant is con- structed near Galt. A sod-turn- ing ceremony has been held but no construction has been under- taken yet.

"That a feed freight assis- tance policy be set up whereby freight costs of Ontario wheat for feed be assumed by the federal government on the movement into Quebec and the Maritimes." "A thorough study be made of feed grain requirements in Eastern Canada prior to grant- ing import permits on U.S. feed grains." Mr. Coulter added that the three-point proposal, if even partially implemented, could greatly assist increased consumption Of Ontario soft winter wheat in Eastern feed- ing areas and thus ease the fin- aeicial strain placed on pro- ducers in covering costs of ex- porting wheat at a loss. It costs producers 1.7 cents per bushel marketed to export 1.6 million bushels which could not be sold domestically during the crop year ending June 30th, 1962, Mr. Coulter said. -Please Turn to Page 10 , per pound, according to Coun- cillor Bruce Erskine, chairman of the committee having to do with the abattoir. The town contributes $1,300 a year, the county $1,2Q0 and the inspector, Dr. G, S. Elliott of Clinton, charges 50 cents a carcass. This would work out differently as between beef and pork, but a half-cent is considered an outside figure.) "This meat inspection thing," said Hon. Charles Mac- Naughton at the conference in Clinton, "was brought to atten- tion of the government and legislature a year ago, as result of what took place in Brant. The first approach to it was that they have to enlist the co-opera- tion of the federal government, because two standards of in- spection in one jurisdiction would be chaotic. That co-operation was forth- coming, and our meat inspection bill in Ontario will supplement the federal bill. Inspection will be by federal inspectors, and the provincial government will take care of the gap which ex- isted between the previous in- spection and the present more comprehensive plan. "Previously, those packing plants engaged in interprovin- cial and export trade were obliged to have federal inspec- tion, but it ended there. What this does is pick up the 20% of uninspected meat and poultry the federal inspection does riot touch. The same standard will apply, with certain reserva- tions. "If poultry or meat is sold by a slaughterer for consump- tion only and no retail sale, no inspection is involved. A carcass or bird sold by afarm- er to Elston Cardiff, say, is not subject for inspection.
