ONTARIO FARMERS
1000 EN WANTED
THIS is an appeal to THE FARMERS OF ONTARIO. The Packing
Plants of Ontario, which process and ship your livestock for
export, ARE SERIOUSLY SHORT OF MEN. Every available Farmer
of Ontario is urged to offer his services for employment in (Me of
the Packing Plants in this province as soon as the essential 'work
of the farm is completed. OVER 1,000 men are required to start in
the month of September alone. Good hourly wages will be paid.
Transportation to the plant will be provided. Assistance will be
given in arranging board and room.
With full staffs, the Packing Plants of Canada have ample capacity
to handle even the tremendously increased numbers of cattle, sheep
and, swine, which Canadian farmers have ready for market this year.
When operating to capacity the Packing Plants can keep the market
cleared and livestock can be slaughtered, processed and shipped at
its most profitable time, when it is at its market peak. Thus, losses
which occur when animals are ,held beyond the peak through
additional feeding costs, through falling away from peak condition
and through the danger to price structures when supply threatens
to exceed demand —are avoided.
Last year several hundred Ontario farmers volunteered for work in
the plants in processing their own products and protecting their own
interests. Production for export this year has increased by 40%.
Available man-power has shrunk by 28%.
The Ontario Farm Service Force, in conjunction with Employment and Selective
Service has 'undertaken the task Of raising sufficient help from Ontario Farmers
to keep Packing Plants operating to capacity this year. This department of
the Ontario government's Department of Agriculture feels that this extension
of its service is as vitally important to the interests of the farmers of this prov-
ince as anything it has yet undertaken, The need of meat as a primary essential
food to our Allied Armies, to the people of Great Britain and to the starving
millions in countries being liberated by our victorious armies, is the basic
consideration. In addition, efficient operation in the processing and marketing
of livestock is necessary in protecting the greatest export market Oyer opened
to Canadian farmers.
Your services are needed from now until sprin0. If you'cannot devote that full period of time, a month or more will be of great fag-stance.
OtTER YOUR SERVICES AS SOON AS POSSIB1.E, If you cannot go to Work at once, call or write, staring that you will Come, and at what date you will ho available. Remember you will be serving your own best interests as 'well cut playing tr vital patriot/a pad In serving year edutitryo

PHIL OSIFER OF
LAZY MEADOWS
By Harry J. Boyle
We threshed in the field this year,
and I must say that while the sun was
burning up the ,grass and erasing the
water-holes, it certainly did help us
with our labor problem. We changed
work on this line for threshing and
everybody has finished threshing now
and we're turning to the fall work.
I've turned the cows into the second-
cut clover because the pasture was
burned up dry and I have a good sup,-
ply of hay in the barn and a field of
second alfalfa that looks pretty good.
Another field of timothy is going
PHIL OSITER, TWO 4ei, ' '
to aced, The corn has come along
well and this being my first year for
trying the hybrid variety I'm quite
satisfied.
It seems that jugt;•abOilt everybody
in the township has expended the
poultry bulginess ,o;tt 'etch' farms, I
built as addition to the hen-house last
week. New lumber heing such e ter-
rific price I tried going through the
old pile of scantlings in the driving
shed. Either I've lost my flair with
a hammer or clad the spikes being said
these days Ara soft i because it seemed
that just abolit every one of their
twisted or turned before they were
driven in far enough, The scantlings
splintered and some of them had
punky ends
, .
and all in all, it was,
a devil-;of ajob,. I lost my-patience
and hit nay thumb - with the hammer
and swore I'd never try and build
anything again with reclaimed lumber,
Finally I had to buy some siding and
the planing mill salesman never even
cracked a smile when he soaked me
forty-eight dollars and fifty cents for
the little pile 'of new knotty boards.
The hen-houSe is up now however
and it doesn't look too bad. In fact
I'm quite proud of it, although I don't
suppose the 0,A,,C, will take a picture
Of it. for their bulletins on poultry.
That would be too much to expect. '
The children are poking back to
school as I write this, Some of them
are dashing along quite happy and
others are lagging along as if hoping
the school would burn down before
they got there. We have a new teach-
er this year. It's her first school and
she's probably just as frightened as the
little Jenkins boy who is starting tp
school for the first time. She'll get
eyed up and down at church next Sun-
day and treated like a stranger for a
few weeks, and some will say she's
too easy with the children and others
who have children gg oing will say she's
too severe, and finally she'll be accept-
ed as a part of the community.
We had a bad windstorm here last
week. It was one of the first we've
had around here in twenty years and
it blew down a bark at the other side
of the village and tort an elm tree
down in our back pasfure. The barn
was pretty rickety and the, tree was
pretty old so we haven't much to com-
plain about.
It's cooler at nights now and Ed.
Higgins was saying that on Sunday
evening when they had company, they
had to have a little fire in the front
room. Time certainly moves along in
a hurry. , ,
PAM OF PATRICK
STREET OFF FOR NOW
(Continued from page one)*
Some of the wood was put in the town
hall basement for storage.
The Mayor also told of the attend-
ance at Barrie of the Utilities Com-
mission at a convention of the Georg-
ian Bay System. Mr. Walker he said,
was made a member of the executive.
The convention has endorsed a motion
to have normal use of electricity again
as there is a surplus of 5000 horse-
power on the system. This was acted
upon before this resolution could be
submitted.
The town during the restricted per-
iod for use of electricity saved 5200
watts. It would cost, the Mayor re-
ported, about $80.00 extra to have the
pre-war street lighting until the end
of the year, It was decided to have
the street lights put on a pre-war basis
on motion of Councillor Johnson and
Reeve Evans.
It was also reported by the Execu-
tive committee that a change in the
charge of‘operation of the Hydro and
Waterworks Aepartments has been
instituted. The •Hydro used to pay
90 per cent, and in .future will pay 60
per cent. and the waterworks the bal-
ance.
The paving to the cemetery has been
done to the second gate and the cost
to do this to the line fence at the
Kelly property would amount to about
$260 of which the town's share would
be about $60. The council on motion
of Councillors Lloyd and Johnson de-
cided to co-operate with the Township
of Turnberry in doing this section.
The Mayors' Convention Will be
held in Toronto on October 18, 19, 20
and on motion of Councillors Lloyd
and Janson the Mayor and Reeve
were appointed delegates.
Councillor Kennedy and the Mayor
reported that W. T. Cruickshank has
approached them in regard„ to renting
the arena from the town .for a period
of five years. There was some dis-
cussion regarding this matter and it
was decided to look further into this
proposition and meet with Mr, Cruick-
shank.
A building permit for d garage from
Mr. Thos, Weir was passed on motion
of Councillors Kennedy and 'Reavie.
The garage will be located at Robin-
son property, Frances St., which he
purchased.
A letter was read from 'the C. P. R.
in regard to the gale of weigh scales
to T. Field & Co, and also regarding
the lease. It was moved by Council
