Guest speaker, John Bell, a trust officer with the Victoria and Grey Trust Company in Stratford, discussed the importance of estates and wills. Jerry Bluhm, 'Secretary to the Ontario Pork Producers' Marketing Board was also present at the meeting. He spoke to the, producers about hog cycles. "A computer has, been developed", he said, "which can predict hog cycles. Going out of synchronization with the cycle can ,give a producer much better results. A study shows there is a benefit for moving out of synchronization. If a hog producer expanded in a low price period, it has been proven that more money can be made," Mr. Bluhm He also predicted that the fourth quarter of 1976 is not going to be as bad as wasoriginally thought. The computer output stated that prices could drop into the $59 but not the $40's as was thought.
