For, most of the new drugs your physician is prescribing today, were not around a few years ago. And many drugs so popular — just a short while ago are not even being made anymore. But — we do feel compelled to add that not all the "old" are on the way out, We still get calls to compound many medicines and for drugs that have become old standbys.

Some- one with a blind spot who pursues their idea of necessity blindly is called a fanatic on this particular issue. Mrs, Brechins blind spot is marketing boards. One pan assume that she doesn't see right or wrong as soon as the term is mentioned. Having said as much, I have to support this statement, She claimed in an attack on the new national turkey board, that after the egg board was formed, the egg prices shot up, and she was right, What she doesn't want to see, is that the egg price had to KIRKTON-WOODHAM FARMERS CLUB - A large increase of business for 1973 was reported Thursday pt the annual meeting of the Kirlcton-Woodham Farmers Club.

Call Exeter 235-0909 The financial statement of the Kirkton-Woodham Farmers for the year 1973 presented at the annual meeting Thursday showed a large increase over the previous year's business. Total classified receipts for 1973 were listed at $698,665.76, an increase of $117,762.54. The balance of receipts over ex- penditures was $13,139.13. In 1972 this figure amounted to $4,282.68. The salary of secretary- go up or all egg producers would have been bankrupt by new, and we would be dependent on American eggs, Dut American egg prices are higher than ours. So without an egg board the price of egos would have been higher now than they actually are. Here are some supporting figures, figures that are available to Mrs. Brechin. In August 1973 the egg producer had a profit margin of 4.5 cents doz. Price to Ontario producers 68-70 cents doz. US price 70.82 cents doz. On January 6, 1974 because of lower feed cost, the production cost dropped by 2.4 cents doz., the profit dropped to 2.1 cents doz, and the price set by the board to the producer dropped 6 cents doz. to 63 cents. This is still 10 cents below the US price, where they have none of Marion's hated marketing boards. Her claim than that the price didn't come down after feed, costs dropped off somewhat is also false, as you can see in the above figures. That they didn't drop back to a loss level is only fair to the egg producer and I can't think of any who will dispute this, So you see folks that even smart and dedicated people as Mrs. Marion Brechin can not always be depended upon to give both sides an equal hearing, At last,after more than 25 years of discrimination by doctors against meat, truth is coming out. Last year a less well known US doctor spoke out against his colleges for linking meat and cholesterol and heart disease. Now no less than Dr. Wm, C. Sherman of the National Food and Health Agency (USA) says that new research has proven that there is no relationship between meat eating and heart disease. Street name changed, favour Rosemount Industrial Road may become Rosemont Boulevard in the near future. Or is it Rosemount? Or Rosemond? At any rate, Exeter council gave permission this week to change the street (it runs south off Highway 83 between Kongskilde Ltd and Exeter Royal Bank Presents FARMCHEK Automatic Bookkeeping.... every time you write a cheque or deposit slip. I Shipka streak is shattered Roofing) name to grant a request from Mrs. R. Keller. Property for the street was provided in a deal made with the Kellers. Council decided to name the street Industrial Road after turning down a suggestion it be called MacNaughton in honor of the former Huron MPP. Mrs. Keller this week advised council through Reeve Boyle, that shehad wanted the Streetp'''''" Rosemond• '(or ROSertioun Rosemont) and had forgotten4 have this included as partint the agreement. Members of council agreed to the change, although Reeve Boyle wasn't certain of the exact name. Mayor Delbridge said he favored Rosemount. Councillor Shaw said the name Industrial Road was not imaginative and suggested council name streets "after the characters who have done something for Exeter". "Imagine having a Boyle Boulevard," retorted Councillor Patterson. expenses into as fink' as I 0 or as many as 900 specific categories each, how every month you'll receive monthly and year-to- date statements itemiting each category, "-'4 and how Farmchek can saveyou a pile of trouble at income tax time.

Stan Francis is the new vice-president. The management committee consists of Alvin Crago, Jack Urquhart, Jules De Brandere and Gerald Bryan. Secretary Rea Stephens reported that the price of grass seed was about double from last year. He also said seed grain is going to be scarce and the prices will be up. Stephens added, "if anybody wants seed grain, they better get their orders in right smartly. There will be discounts for January and February."
