any groat; or ,organiaation, telling me
how, or where I have to sell my pigs.
Now, we have heard reports of the
Succeiss that the, Hog d')roducers Co_
Operative (Inicidently I feel that
HOgProduceirs Compulsion would be
a more suitable name) have had by
,selling pigs 4n, the stock yards. We i
have heard claims, that as the Per.. {

the open market increased; the price j
also increased.1 ;
Now, What happened last week
clues mot hear out this claim.
The newspaper reports I have
oeen, show a hog price of 34.35 at, the
I :Toronto Yard's at the beginning of
the week. However 'by Thursday,
Prices reported were at the Toronto
Yaril.- 50& hogs sold at $33.00 and
1100 sold at $.31,50. I understood
that the 1140 went to MontaTal,
B.:•-i-Irts also show that hogs in
Winnipeg on Thursday sold for
333.00. That is $1.50 more than what
some of the hogs in Toronto yards
'brought. If these statements are
wrong I stand to be corrected.
On Thursday afternoon I shipped
30 pigs direct to: the packing plant
in Toronto. I have shipped to this
Dfa.nt during the past two years, and
feel that I have received fair
treatmenit . and, that they value
the good will of their customers.
