EXETER. $235.-111115 An impassioned plea for turkey growers to ratify a raise inlicence fees was voiced by Alan Roder, Arkona, chairman of the Ontario Turkey Producers Marketing "Ward at the Poultry Conference in London this week, The executive has unanimously passed the raise in fees from 1-15 cents per pound liveweight to 1 - 8 cent, he said. Ballots will be mailed to each registered turkey producer in the province on June 19 to vote on the increase in check-off. The consumption of broiler turkeys has decreased 25 percent this year, Mr, Roder said, suggesting that lack of a promotion campaign was the cause. Finds were not sufficient to allow for a promotion program this year, he stated. The increase,if passed, would double the board's yearly finances to about $130,000 from the current $65,000. Mr. Roder suggested the $65,000 for the board's entire annual operations was a very By MRS.

HEBER DAVIS Friday evening the congregation of St. Patrick's church and several friends of Mr. & Mrs. Bill Johnson and boys gathered at the Parish Hall for a farewell tribute to the Johnsons. The evening was spent playing progressive euchre. Winners were: ladies high, Mrs. Art Abbott; lone hands, Mrs. Tom Kooy; mens high, Jack Dickins; lone hands, Maurice MacDonald. Mr. & Mrs. Johnson and boys were called to the front and Hugh Davis read a farewell address and Wayne Carroll and Arnold Cunningham presented the guests of honor with a table and insignificant figure considering the industry is worth more than $34 million annually. Mr. Roder said. British Columbia is the only province in Canada showing an increase in broiler sales so far this year but they have also spent more than anyone on promotion., The Board chairman was critical of growers who do nothing but criticize the board but are reluctant to "provide the tools to do a job," such as proper finances. "For $25 a meeting (a direc- tor's per-diem rate) I can stay home and make more money running my own business than by trying to aid the destiny of a $34 million industry," he said. "If you don't support this proposal you will be the losers. You don't get something for nothing." Give us the tools to work with and if we don't do a proper job for you, then get somebody else." Mr. Roder warned that if more funds are not forthcoming, no sales promotion will be carried out during the remainder of 1972 which could mean further con- sumption decreases. This would affect not only producer's quotas, but poultry growers and feed companies, he said. lamps, Bill Johnson thanked everyone for the gifts and the Party. Refreshments followed.

Agriculture Minister H. A. Olson maintained in the House of Commons Monday he made no commitment to aid southwestern Ontario farmers who lost crops in a late season frost other than "we would be as helpful as possible , . to assist farmers in determining whether or not they should reseed some of these crops or take other appropriate action which would reduce the damage as much as possible." "It is quite impossible to deal with the financial losses until you know what they are," he told Harold Danforth (PC-Kent- Essex). Mr. Olson visited southwestern Ontario last Friday and sub- sequently held a meeting in St. Thomas during which the situation was discussed. Mr. Danforth referred to statements attributed to him at that time and asked for an early statement in the commons "dealing with government proposals of financial aid to the producers of various crops in- volved, stating whether loans, grants or payments would be made now or at harvest time. Mr, Danforth said progress already has been made in reseeding and looking after the crops and wanted to know what the government proposed about the financial aspect of crop losses. Mr. Olson said it was too early to assess damage but what he has done is to send a press release into the area advising farmers of the services to be made available from research stations, 4, Centralia Farmers Supply Ltd.
