Bruce Film Council
Seeks County Grant
Nowhere in Ontario can the Film
Service which is now organized in
Bruce and Grey Counties be dup-
licated. Two years ago, the National
Film Board gave assistance in organ-
izing a Film Service in Bruce and
Grey Counties to give complete Film
Service coverage to rural people and
town people alike. Before this time•
the main distribution of films was or-
ganized through large centres only,
with the exception of the Federation
of' Agriculture circuit program plan
which was discontinued in 1950, To-
day, we have concrete evidence that
this experiment has been a decided
success.
Four thousand, seven hundred and
forty school children throughout the
County of Bruce see educational films
monthly in their own class-rooms.
Also 3,300 adults in Bruce County at-
tend film showings monthly. Thir-
teen film libraries circulate monthly
within the County„ thus giving an
entire Film Service coverage in Bruce
County. The /3r, ee County Film
Council has thirtt,n Township or
Community active Film Committees
throughout the County. Fifty-six
adult organizations this year sought
membership in the Bruce County
Film Council to avail themselves of
this Film Service. Since the BrUce
County Film Council was organized
in 1950, sixteen motion picture
projectors have been purchased by
communities where this Film Service
has been introduced.
In the past three years, the Bruce
County Film Council has purchased
over $6„000. worth of films to be
circulated through its libraries in the
county. Over $2,000, worth of films
being purchased each year.
In the field of Religious films,
Bruce and Grey County Film Coun-
cil co-operatively have built up a
Religious Film plan which is the first
of its kind in Canada. For a yearly
membership of $10 from any Church
over $2,000. worth of films are made
available to each member which
would cast the member over $100, to
duplicate it anywhere.
For the first time since the Bruce
County Film Council has been or-
ganized, the Film Council is petition-
ing for a grant from the County
Council to further assist them in
their educational program, stated Mr.
Howard Collins of Port Elgin, Chair-
man of the Bale° County Film Coun-
cil. The Bruce County Film Council is
an entirely County wide, County sup-
ported program. Although the Na-
tional Film Board has loaned some
films and equipment along with
promotiOnal help, there has been no
Outside financial aid. A membership
of $10. from adult groups and church-
es and $20. from school boards who
Use the films to larger extent than
adult groups, has been the only
source of revenue. We are seeking
assistance at this time from the
County Council to help us write off
senile of the past expenditures Which
equipment and films necessary to
have when we first organized in 1950.
The larger part of this outstanding
debt was incurred when assistance
was given to several Townships in
the County to purchase projection
equipment. A total of $1100. has
been invested in assisting Townships
to secure this necessary equpmient at
a sacrifice to our Bruce County Film
Council budget. We are asking for a
grant of not less than $500,, for we
know that the people of Bruce County
are 100% behind this fine educational
program.
HATEFUL FRIEND
OF RED CROSS
I3ruce Fed. of Agric.
Mtg. at Walkerton
An immediate discontinuance of the
Dominion Government's new policy
with respect to heavier hogs going on
the market was asked by the Bruce
County Federation at their meeting in
Walkerton, Wednesday. The new reg-
ulation allowing farmers to ship hogs
dressing 180 lbs. allows the producer
to collect the grade premium for A's,
but the farmer only receives Bl, B2
or B3 price, so the- additional weight
is a complete loss and waste of feed
and time.
A floor price for beef was asked of
the Dominion government. It was
thought that the outbreak of disease
was a factor that should be considered
as a national calamity and the sup-
port price should be set higher
through this event than had the price
fallen purely from an over production.
The secretary, Jim Powers, was
instructed to forward a letter of•
appreciation to Hon. Mr. Thomas,
Minister of Public Works for the
contribution to young farmers through
increased credits.
Plans were made for the vote on
the Poultry Producers Marketing
scheme coming up on April 17, 18 and
19. The Agr. Rep. Mr Geo Gear, the
returning officer for Bruce, outlined
the regulations and the executive
selected the places for'the ballot box-
es to he located during the three days.
County meetings were set for Wiarton
at 2 pan. on Mara 31 and at Cargill
at 8.30 p.m. on March 31. Mr. Ken
Betzner, Chairman of the Provincial
Organization, will be on hand to
explain all the details.
Plans were also made for the con-
tinuance of the calfhood vaccination
drive again during the month of
April, TOWIIShip chairmen Were pres-
ent, along with Dr. Mullin, Dr.
Schuett and Dr, Dorland of the Bruce
County Health tinit to arrange a plan
that would ' inform farmers of the t
campaign and haVe the numbers of
heifer ealVeS between the ages of six
and nine months. Dr. Mullin stated
it is very difficult to sell heifer calves
now for breeding purposes that are
not vaccinated,

Hello Homemakers! Give cheese the
spotlight once a day, and take your
choice whether you serve it at lunch,
afternoon tea, dinner, or for an even-
ing snack. Fortunately people are be-
coming more aware of the fact that
cheese is a highly nutritious food as
as well as a versatile one.
There are many varieties of cheese,
and all of them are cooked foods. So
it behooves us to take as much care
in the storage of them as you do jam
or jelly, We keep cheese in a wide-
mouthed glass jar with a glass top,
and drop two cubes of sugar in it.
These sugar cubes are replaced every
two weeks after we have washed and
aired the jar. When the container is
kept in a cool, dark place there should
be no growth of mould. If there should
be any sign of oil or mould, firm
cheese may be wiped with a cloth dip-
ped in vinegar.
TAKE A TIP •
1. Broil cheese under a pre-heated
top oven element about 3 to 5 min-
utes.
2. To blend 'cheese with other foods
either in a baked product or top-
stove dish, use low heat,
3. You should get more servings from
cheddar cheese than processed
cheese.
4, Grate firm cheese by rubbing over
a grater; crumble. soft' cheese by
rubbing through a coarse sieve.

' THE QUESTION BOX
Miss A. C. asks; How do you make
cottage cheese?
Answer: Cream cottage cheese:
Heat very slowly one quart of milk
to which is added one tablespoon
lemon juice. When lukewarm turn
into a sieve lined with cheesecloth,
pour one quart of warm water
through it. Gather the cheesecloth
around the curd to form a bag and
let it hang until the curd is free from
whey. Moisten with melted butter and
a little cream. Add silt to taste. For
variety add a little minced watercress,
a little horseradish, or a tablespoon of
marmalade or ?/2, teaspoon slivered
candied ginger.
