M. CreigIdnitin The Ontario Poultry Producers' Association held its first annual 'meet- Ins in Toronto on :Friday, April 18th. If the attendance at that meeting is any Indication of the interest of our Counties in the poeltry industry ,then the industry must be enjoying Atwater porloci of prosperity, The attendance was very small with. many counties ncit being represented. If this meeting had been held in December 1949 or January 1950 the assembly room would not have been able to hold the people, who at that time were pro- testing the low Klee of 280 per dozen being received for their eggs. Apparently all that injustice is for- gotten, Today the price for eggs is satisfactory and the apparent need for a strong producer controlled or- ganization is past. Now is the time we must build such an organization so it will, be there to serve when fut- ure problems confront us. The president of the Poultry Pro- fiegere' Association, K. N. Betener of Waterloo County reported on pro- gress that has been made in pegot- lations with producer groups in other provinces to secure a National Poul- try scheme. As egg surpluses are a national problem, the only way that the producer organization can func- tion successfully is on a national scale, A meeting with other provinces was held in Regina recently and Mr. Betz- ner reported that-the surplus-produc- ing Provinces, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta were pre- Pared to take vote on marketing scheme et the same WOO. If they re- ceived a favottrable vote, they, would make use Of Bill 82 in the Federal ParliaMent to enable theln to set up a Federal plan to handle surplus egg preductien, for the Dominion of Can- ,ade. At the present time the maritime provinces, Quebec and British Colum- bia are not 'producing enough eggs and poultry to consider a plan that is set up primarily to deal with surplus Production. They have not sufficient Production to fill local demand at the present time. The plan being set up is to deal with surplus production and will have very little effect on the present trade channels. The deduction suggested is one cent per dozen on eggs, This immediately raises a storm of pro- tests from producers as being too high. When it is pointed out that it will take several million dollars to handle the 500,000 cases of eggs that are surplus each year, then it is easier to understand why we need one cent per dozen to finance this venture. We should not mind contribution of one cent per dozen to our organization if it will give some stability to our egg prices. The plans are now in progress to have a satisfactory marketing scheme ready for a vote of producers by Dec- ember or later. This scheme will cover both eggs and poultry meats. It has always been a problem to secure a favourable vote when prices are good and every sign points to unreas- onably high prices sometime between now and next December. R. S. McKercher. of R. R.1, Dublin, Ontario, is now a member of the Poultry Producers' Executive, having been elected to represent the Counties of Grey, Bruce and Huron. Some interesting information was given out at the meeting. Do you know that one quarter of the eggs in the Dominion of Canada are produced PURDON'S BAKERY • —Central Preys Canadian Dr, Hans Selye, director of the department of experimental medi- cine and surgery at the University of Montreal, has announced a new development in medicine which may control a great number of in- fectious diseases. At Lancaster, Pa., he told a group of medical scien- tists of the results of his experi- mental work with STH, a new drug, which, he found, yielded positive results with laboratory animals, and he expected to find it would work with humans. in four counties in Western Ontario. Huron being one of them? Fifty per cent of the eggs produced in Canada are produced in the counties of Ont- ario that are west of Toronto, Eggs are big business in our county, so let's have strong support for our Poultry Prodlicers' Organization. The annual meeting of the Ontario Wheat Producers' Association will be held in Hall D, Royal York Hotel, Toronto, on May 8th. Any Producer in Huron County that is able to at- tend this meeting is urged to do so. This organization has already saved the farmers a lot of money and with strong producer support can go for- ward to greater achievements. The Dairy Farmers of Canada are conducting the June Set Aside Cam- paign this year to raise funds for ad- vertising Dairy Products, You are urged to contribute to this fund by having a cent a pound butterfat de- ducted from all the butterfat you produce during the month of June. Each individual contribution is small, but when added together, places the Dairy Farmers in a position where they can carry on a national advertis- ing campaign.
