(Bud) Olson and provincial ministers of agriculture recently achieved near unanimous agreement on the principle of the establishment of a National Egg Marketing Agency. The objectives of the agency would be three-fold: (1) to foster a strong, efficient and economic poultry industry; (2) to provide stable and reasonable returns to producers, and (3) to provide a dependable supply of quality eggs to consumers at stable prices. The Ministers agreed that, should an agency be established, and should it implement provincial, regional or national marketing quotas, it would be instructed to limit allocation of marketing quotas to production facilities established before the end of November 1968. This limitation would remain in effect until farther expansion of the industry is necessary. Egg marketing has been under intensive study by Mr. Olson and his provincial counterparts since midsummer, following a request by the Canadian Conference on Egg Production. Discussion covered jurisdictional and economic aspects of a marketing authority. A recent report from Huron County Agricultural representative Don Pullen indicates that farmers in the County will be busy in the next month or so learning more in their specialized fields, On Wednesday, January 15, the Huron County Beef Improvement Association is planning a tour of beef cattle feedlots in the north-east part of the county. The tour will leave the Belgrave Hall at 1.00 p.m. and will visit the farms of Jack Walter Miller, President of the Ontario Farmers' Union, told an estimated 15,000 farmers in St. Louis, Missouri, that farmers of North America should be thinking in terms of bargaining on an international basis since the corporations we meet at the market place today are huge industrial giants whose conglamoration of subsidiaries operate all across the continent. He cited as examples — potatoes from Canada going to the U.S. — corn from the U, S. coming to Canada — and livestock moving back and forth across the border, all having a depressing effect on the market at the expense of the farmers on both sides of the border. Mr. Miller was speaking to the annual convention of the National Farmers' Organization in the U.S. The NFO is an organization which has swept across the U.S. and has drawn wide-spread support from farmers. The NFO's main policy is collective bargaining for agriculture, and has met much success in recent months with its attempts to sell farm productions under supply contracts. The Union President expressed optimism at the great movement of farmers taking place across North America and predicted the day would come soon when American and Canadian farmers would work closer together through an international organization and bargain collectively for a fair price for farm production. He told the convention that farmers on both sides of the border are being exploited by SHANKLESS SMOKED PORK HUMPTY OUMPTY CORN STICKS SUPREME BLEACH FOR YOUR FREEZER FRONTS OF BEEF Wheeler, Brussels, Murray Cardiff, Ethel, Eldred Gathers, Wroxeter and Bob liptie, Coale. At 5:30 the buses will return, to the I3elgrave Hall for the annual meeting and banquet with several guest speakers G. S. (Bert) Moggach, Agricultural Engineer for Huron and Perth will present an illustrated commentary on strong and weak points of beef feedlots. The newly appointed secretary-manager of the Ontario the same people and when our farmers realize how much we have in common with each other they will then also realize they can stop the manipulation by playing the same game. Mr. Miller called on farm leaders to be honest with the farmers and tell the whole story even though it means being subjected to ridicule and criticism. The Ontario Federation of Agriculture took another step firmly towards the formation of a General Farm Organization in the province. The members also voted to keep open the necessary channels employed in importing tractors. The moves came during a regular monthly Member's Meeting at the Royal York Hotel in Toronto. Much of the agenda was carried over from the annual convention in November. In an amended resolution the OFA chose to confirm "its position as being in favour of a General Farm Organization in Ontario, based on the principles of financing by a check-off from all agricultural commodities plus a voluntary membership where desired." The members further invested the executive with the power to work out any details in the complex action. The last portion of the resolution states that the executive of the Ontario -Federation of Agriculture Beef Improvernent Association, John Wiley will conduct a question, and answer period on current beef improvement activities. Tickets for the tour and banquet can be obtained from Winston Shapton in Stopbene Usborne's Archie Etherington and Herb Klopp of Hay township. Late in February, the Huron County Dairy Herd Improvement Association will hold a two-day workshop. The first will be held-in the Ontario Street United Church Hall in Clinton on Thursday, February 27 and the final meeting will go at the Belgrave Women's Institute Hall, the following day. Provincial Dairy Specialist Harold Clapp and regional supervisor Henry Bent with the assistance of milk commission fieldmen will be in charge of the meetings. Among the subjects to be discussed are factors affecting profit in dairying, feeding dairy cattle and current D. H. I, A. information. Each farmer is asked to bring his own dairy ration details (amount fed to cow and production of cow) along for discussion during the afternoon. "requests the Minister of Agriculture to provide the necessary legislation to conduct a farmer vote to form a General Farm Organization and collect the necessary funds to adequately finance the same via a commodity check-off." Concerning the further importation of tractors, the members voted to allow the executive to take any necessary steps to continue the importation if deemed necessary by demand. The OFA recently imported seven tractors from Britain at a saving of about $20,000 to the purchasing farmers. The input prices on the Canadian markets make the same tractors twice the price of those imported from the United Kingdom. Russians buy Canadian cattle Included in a recent shipment of beef cattle to Russia from Alberta and Saskatchewan was a group of 34 purebred Holsteins from the same area. While the Russians have made several purchases of beef animals in the past few years, this is the first time a significant number of dairy cattle have been included. The 34 Holsteins consisted of 10 bulls and 24 females and were purchased from twelve different herds. It is anticipated that the Russians will purchase additional Holstein breeding stock from Canada. Altogether, 1,257 head of all breeds were bought by the Russians for the two boatloads just shipped. In addition to the 34 Holsteins, there were 1,028 Herefords and 195 Aberdeen-Angus, Cook potatoes in well-scrubbed skins whenever possible. Don't YOU read before you buy?
