Mr. Bill said some Ontario crops suffered damage this fall because farmers could not obtain reliable help. "When fruit, farmers were working by lamp light in the wee hours of the morning to get their crops to market, more than 240,- 000 Ontario workers were idly gathering unemployment in- surance," he said, Mr. Hill said competition from "government handouts" was un- fair and unemployment in- surance should be survival in- surance, not an incentive to leave the work force.

Daynard of Staffa and Lorne Fell, also of Staffa won another barley title, Stewart Research acres of Ailsa Craig won first prizes in four corn sections, Sign agreement for proposed national egg market agency the Canadian Egg Council, Producers I because of the controls, Mr. Olson said. The agreement itself comes from a plan developed by the Canadian Egg Producers Coun- cil, a group set up to look after the interests of egg farmers. The plan was submitted to the national marketing council which held public hearings. Egg producers, provincial agriculture ministers and egg marketing boards supported the plan, the national council reported after the hearings, Under the agreement, the national marketing agency will have 10 members named by 10 provincial marketing boards. But for the first year — and egg people hope things can be worked out before the end of 1972 because the quotas are based in produc- tion figures for 1967-71 — the agency will be the executive of Rabbit group plans shows DEKALB is Proud to Announce the Appointment of Wm.

An agreement that could lead to a national agency to control the production and marketing of eggs was signed by Agriculture Minister H. A. Olson and nine provincial counterparts, Should various provincial and regional egg marketing boards follow suit — and it's expected they will — the agreement would lead to the first federal agency created under the Farm Products Marketing Agencies Act, passed early this year after two years of often violent debate. Public hearings on the egg plan held this fall brought protest from consumer groups that quotas and controls on the number of eggs farmers can raise would mean higher egg prices. Basically, the plan would limit national egg production to 475 million dozen a year, parcelled out among provinces on the basis of past production. Provincial marketing boards would allocate quotas to farmers to "ensure orderly marketing." The agreement was signed Monday after an all-day meeting by the ministers during the Cana- dian agricultural out-look con- ference. Twelve more signatures including that of the chairman of the National Farm Products Marketing Council, Paul Babey, have yet to be added before the agency can be set up. Mr. Babey was asked to sign the agreement but declined, saying he wanted everyone else to sign it first. Mr. Olson said the new agency could work to the benefit of con- sumers by adding stability to the selling and pricing of eggs. Currently consumers pay in- directly for the "waste inherent in the ups and downs within the industry." • But mainly the agency is designed to help egg farmers, who should receive higher in- comes and more stability Table show for January and Spring show for June were the topics discussed at the November meeting of the Lambtoa - Middlesex Rabbit Breeders Association. John Ritcher read the minutes of the previous meeting. Paul Chamberlain read an arti- cle entitled "43 Little Known Facts about Rabbits". Did you know? Rabbit meat is all white and highly nutritious. There is only eight per cent waste in the rabbit carcass. Rabbit wool is lighter and warmer than any other. Rabbit manure is a good source of nitrogen for fertilizer.
