new feed
grains ,policy
The federal government's new Feed Grains Policy becomes effective
August 1, 1974. Whether you are a producer or user, the new policy
is designed to meet your needs by:
• providing a fair and equitable base price for feed grains across
Canada;
• encouraging growth of grain and livestock production according
to natural potential;
• maintaining order and stability throughout the grain and livestock
sectors.
MAIN FEATURES:
• farmers will have direct access to feed grains in all parts of Canada;
buyers are free to shop for the best bargain, sellers are free to find
the best price for their crops;
• a nation-wide information system-through the Canadian Livestock
Feed Board will keep everyone informed on selling prices across
the country;
• the Canadian Wheat Board will continue to be the sole buyer and
seller of feed grain for export market;
• prairie producers have the choice of selling their grain to the CWB
or to others on the domestic market;
• cash advance payments and initial payments, similar to those
provided to Prairie grain producers for many years, will be extended
to growers, across the country to encourage feed grain production;
• a new storage program, costing the federal government $40 million
a year, will be instituted to provide for security of supplies for
Canadian markets; it will also lead to additional grain storage on
the West Coast, in inland terminals, on the Great Lakes and the
St. Lawrence and in the Maritimes;
lk steps will be taken to bring into balance freight rates between meat
and grain; this will progress according to trends in grain and
livestock prices, and the degree of regional self-sufficiency in
grain production,

After the hymn "The Glory of
the Spring, How Sweet" was

read several verses stressing
kindness from Ephesians and
Romans.
Mrs. Robertson likened
kindness to a golden chain which
links us all together. She said
kindness cannot be postponed. A
kind deed is never lost, she
added, and told everyone to live
each day as if it were her last.
After Mrs. , Robertson's
presentation Mrs. Joe Walker led
in prayer.
The minutes of the last meeting
were read by the secretary: Mrs.
Glenn McKercher. Roll call was
answered by 17 members each of
whom quoted her favourite spring
hymn. Visits to the sick were then
recorded and that was followed by
Mrs. Gordon Mundell's report as
treasurer.
After the remaining business
was completed Mrs. Keith
Moffatt introduced the guest
speaker, Mrs. Dennis Freeman,
Mrs. Freeman is a public health
nurse and she based her speech
on that subject. The speaker
explained that her career takes
her to schools, homes and
community clinics. Quite often,
she told the ladies. she meets
with groups of mothers for
parental education. •

Anxiety, psychiatrists say, is a.
response to stress. Its more
obvious signs are sweating,
shaking, a pounding hearbeat or a
dry mouth. But it can also come
disguised as pain or physical
exhaustion.
Anxiety can even show up
unconsciously: Abe Lincoln is
said to have dreamed vividly of
the circumstances of his assass-
ination.
if anxiety can be defined as a
state of apprechension or
uneasiness, it's obvious that most
of us suffer from it from time to
time. Getting anxious before
tak ing an exam or giving a'
speech is quite natural, and may
even serve to key us up quite
appropriately for the occasion.
There are other, less obvious
forms. For example, some people
suffer from seemingly irrational
fears of certain places or objects.
These dreads may sometimes be
subconsciously associated with
some childhood experience. This
type of anxiety usually needs
professional psychiatric help in
tracing the root of the problem
and dealing with it.
In certain forms of transient
anxiety, says psychiatrist. Dr,
John Armstrong of Toronto's
North YorkGerieral Hospital,
alcohol or the Minor tranquilizers

When Mrs. Freeman visits a
private home she might find a
mom and new baby, a person
suffering from cancer or just a
lonely elderly person that needs
people to show they care.
Mrs. Moffatt thanked Mrs.
Freeman for taking the time to
speak to the ladies on such an
interesting topic and Miss Sandra
Moffatt presented the speaker
with a gift. Mrs. Colley added her
thanks to Mrs. Freeman and to
Mrs. Moffatt for sharing her
home.
The meeting closed with the
singing of "There is a Green Hill
Far Away" and the Lord's Prayer
repeated in unison ;
Lunch was served by the

There's sonic agreement in
medical circles that one of the
best ways to cope with anxiety is
communication.. Find someone to
talk to about the problem,
someone you feel at case with and
whom you trust. That person
doesn't necessarily have to be a
doctor. It might be a good friend,
a social worker, teacher or
clergyman.
By the same token, some forms
of anxiety can be prevented by
social interaction, by taking part
in group activities, says Dr,
Armstrong. Hut he emphasizes
that the 'joining' process should
be enjoyable, No sense in opting
for the local tennis club if you
don't like sports, or latching on to
a political group if you can't stand
politics.
In general, people in • good
physical health are less prone to
anxiety states. So another
preventive measure is to engage
in an exercise program, Here
again, though, the process should
be :fund the tense executive who
plays golf to 'relax' won't succeed
if he's always keyed tip to beat
last week's score.
Anxiety is a universal condition
that, in many cases, can be
alleviated by talking it out-or
sweating it out. More setiottS,•
