Progressive farmers in this area rely on Moline-Monitor drills with
fluted feed and double disc or single disc openers to sow crops accier.
web', at uniform depth with uniform covering and careful handling.
The deep-cut fluted feeds prevent bridging and grinding of seed.
Even trashy seed flows through evenly. An exclusive MM feature per-
mits the operator to actually see the seed being delivered to the spouts.
No special gates of any kind are needed on the quality MM Monitor
Drills. The regular feeds with two speed drive handle everything from
soybeans to flax.
Grain growers also prefer Moline-Monitor Drills because of their
dependability ,and long-life, trouble-free operation. Typical of the
better construction are the axle bearings which are extra large and
completely enclosed in a self.aligning dustproof housing.

The Red Cross
Needs Your Support
Wingharn Canadian Legion
Is Helping to Secure It
On Thursday of this week the Red Cross opens its drive
for funds in this community.
Since the work carried on by the Red Cross is so vital to
so many people, the Wingham Branch of the Canadian Legion
has undertaken to sponsor the drive locally. We want your
help, and we intend to ask you personally for your contribution.
We of the Wingham Legion have a very direct interest
in the Red Cross. Since the work in this district has been
handled from the London office, we have learned of the multi-
tude of services which tins organitation offers to the disabled
men at Westminster Hospital in London. Every man who is
under treatment at the big military hospital has reasons aplenty
to ;hank the R,,d Cro.,s for making life pleasanter at every turn.
ra=nt who are being comforted in such practical
ways are our buddies. They did the same job as ourselves, but
did not emerge without the cost of wounds. They cannot move
about the is dany tasks as we do , . . and the Red Cross is right
on the job to make their lot a bit easier,
Of course Westminster is not the only place where men,
women and chipren have reason to bless the name of the Red
Cross. Its work of mercy extends to every place in this whole
land where there is suffering and unhappiness . . and though
many of the workers never receive any pay it still takes money for
the purchase of medical supplies and equipment.
We, of the Wingham Legion are asking that you give
some serious thought to the matter of your contribution to the
Red Cross. When our canvasser calls, please be prepared to
give genermsly. This is one of the most important appeals
addressed to you in any year. Give with your whole heart.
If you are missed during the canvass, your contribution may be
left at McKibbon's Drug Store or either of the local banks,

Hello I-lomeniakers! Fur variety • in
meals, souffles and fondues are ex-
cellent possibilities, What is a souffle?
What is a fondue? How are they re-
lated.?
A souffle is a delicate, spon4y,
baked dish math! with a thick, white
sauce to which are added well-beaten
egg yolks, and stiffly beaten whites.
The souffle needs some kind of sauce
or creamed mixture, such as tomato
or mushroom, as a main course, For
dessert, top with custard, cream r
fruit sauce.
A fondue is like a souffle except
that the thick white sauce is replaced
with milk and brOad crumbs. For
main course dishes a fondue may be
plain or the following may be added;
grated cheese, shredded vegetable,,
diced meat or fish. With chopped friut
and flavouring added to the basic
mixture it becomes a tasty dessert.
To be an expert at making souffles
;.arid fondues follow a good recipe and
work quickly.
TAKE A TIP
1. Preheat the electric oven to 325
degrees,
2. Assemble ingredients and articles
necessary for making and -baking.
3. Prepare meats, fruits, vegetables,
or fish.

The ;February Directors meeting. of
iiktron county Federation of Agri-
culture will be held on Feb. 27th., at
1.30 p4n, at the Agricultural Board.
Room.. This is one vetik later than
usual due to the date conflicting with
other activities,
* *
The Canadian Federation of Agri-
culture made its ,tactual presentation
to the Federal Cabinet on 'Feb. 15th,
Respecting the inar6arine goestion,
the Canadian Fed, endorst.ul the re-
quest of the Dairy Farmers of Can-
ada fur an exeise tax on foreign oils,
imported for use in making margarine,
which they said, was, in line with
Government ilolicy in furnishing pro-
tection. for other industries, not any
more important than the dairy indus-
try,
The brief asked fora 62c floor price
for butter and a 42c floor price for
eggs, (This will be to the dealers and
not to the farmer,) It also asked that
the support price for Wiltshire sides
be raised from $32.50 to provide the
producer with a more favourable floor
price if and when hog prices do `de-
cline.
An investigation into the increase
bt prici, of fertilizers .was requested,
hea‘y increase in price has been
made since controla^ W ere removed.
The brief was very critical of the
action taken by the Board of Trans-
port Cominissioners in disposing of
the appeal against the raising of
freight rates on livestock without
requesting the railway companies to
answer the argumeets of the produc-
ers.

h ere is proof that the farmers of
Huron County are supporting their
own farm organization better than
ever before. Last year at least eight
of the townships in Huron County
agreed to 0)11vet. the 21 5 mill levy for
Reiteration of Agriculture purposes.
There, are 110A- two more townsholps
added to that list and another town-
ship giving a grant has seen fit to
increase that grant by one third its
!last year amount, We appreciate the
reception given our representatives
by the various Township Councils,
and we trust that with our improved
financial position, we can increase our
efforts to improve the farmers posi-
tion, both financially and, socially.

The present series of topics being
discussed by the Ontario Farm For-
um groups deals with problems of
Nation Wide Imiitianee:'
On Feb. 5th the Forums discussed
"Should Agricultural Production be
Controlled", On Feb. 1.2th the topic
for discussion was "Do we Need a
World Food Bank?" and the topic
for Feb. 19, "What has '1.13.A.P.
Accomplished?"
From the opinions expressed on the
first topic relating. to the control of
agricultural production our forums
did not all ,agree that controls were
necessary at the present time. We
have rising prices, expanding markets
and decreased production. All these
facts would certainly point away from
any attempt to control production al
the present tittle. it was capably
expressed by some of our forums that
low support prices like we have on
eggs' and butter, have a tendency to
nitprig hi Minn. Up to the week
ending Feb. 3rd. egg production ill
Ontario declined by approximately
20,000 cases from the same period
last year. Production of butterfat for la
1950
st s
down approximately 18%.
Thcse figures would certainly sup-
Iport the argument that a low support
i price will control the production of
certain products,
Many Forums suggested that any
surplus food we have should be sent
to areas where a shortage exists and
the government should subsidize the
producer, This opinion set the stage
for the next weeks topic on a World
Food Bank.
We all seem to agree that a world
food organization is necessary, but our
governments cannot agree on how
this should come about, Canada has
made every effort to have such an
organization brought into existence.
Almost every country has some sur-
plus products that they could put into
an international clearing house where
it could be exchanged for goods that
was in short supply. The big. sturtib-
ling block Is the difference in value
of world currency. If we could get
our world diplomats down to the level
of our old-fashioned horse traders,
they would be able to solve the cur-
rency problem.
Due to the lack of success obtained
by world governments dealing with
the question of surpluses, the farts
.organizations set up an international
fi
organization of their PA11,, This 44,
called Twenty-six: countries.
are represented in the Internation4
Federation of Agricultural Produeen-
This organization has recommend,lit
and internation commodity clearing
house to handle surplus food products..
To date the governments. of member
nations have not accepted this idea.
If we can solve the problem of sur-
plus and famine throughout the world
we have removed one of the want
causes of war.
