Wor, Bro, Walter VanWyck on Tues- day evening of this week. Federation Groups (Continued from page One) people wi11 want the country to keep them. "But the farmer," said Mr. Car- diff, "can't do this, He has to work 12 to 15 hours a day, and if he is pushed he will work longer." "On the other hand," said the speaker, "to put the capitalists out of business is only putting yourself out of business." President Ireland noted that net returns to the average farmer are .disappointing. "Forty-five dollars a week income for the fanner com- pares with $77 average income for )nen in industry." Albert Bacon, Belgrave, president of the Huron County Hog Produc- ers'. roducters' .Association, reported on the work done this year. He noted that 13 farmers in Huron had en- tered the quality program, and eight had already sent in their re- ports. Mr. Bacon remarked upon the harmony between the directors of the association from across the county, and expressed his satisfac- tion with the good result of trips taken by dozensof producers to see the selling agency in Toronto. During the question period, it was explained that the county as- sociation received $2,200 for drdtac- cational work within the county, on the basis of 1.5 cents per hog, deducted by the selling agency. This proportion of money is avail. able to any county hog association which presents a budget to the Farm Products Marketing Board, outlining the various projects which will be undertaken during the year. The quality program, and the bus trips were paid for out of this budget. Turnover $93 Millions Alf Warner, Bayfield, a mem- ber of the Ontario Hog Producers Marketing Board, noted that the Sales Division was in charge of the selling of hogs. "This is a large operation," said Mr. Warner. "Turnover last year was $93 millions. There are 45 assembly yards. This year there have been complaints over dif- ferent prices for hogs sold in one day, so some sort of pooling may be necessary, "At Whytes, in Stratford, the strike is still on. The company told its employees it was going broke, and must reduce wages by 15 per cent. We don't know wheth- er it hoped to break our selling system or not, but if so it was' an opportune time, just at the end of the six months' trial period." Mr. Warner said the packers are asking that price changes on the tape be at two cent intervals, not five cents, as as present, that the name of the buyer be put on the tape, and that one of the mach- ines be placed in another room, away from the master selling ma- chines. Said Mr. Warner, "We are hav- ing a battle with Copaco. They have submitted a brief to us and we have submitted one to them. They agree to pay •the 40 cents a hog, but we can't allow them `o process their own statements and pay the producers. We must treat all producers the same. With FAME just getting started, we must be ready to treat coopera- tives the same as other packers," Mr, Cardiff spoke to the group, noting that "We've been asked to maintain a floor tinder butter - then they went •oat and bought more Cows --as soon as the govern- ment was committed to pay far the butter," Mr. Warner spoke again about pooling of price and evident dif- ficulties were discussed.

He knr,e. that the one cent a pound paid for publicity on gale, during t,,:. month by the cream protiut•cr, wax much less than paid for pub- licity by other products. Ht' tom. mented that the Ontario Cream Producers' Association this year is asking for a consumer subsidy. Mr. Cardiff commented that the surplus milk in the fluid market seemed to come back into the but- ter -making, helping to produce surplus butter. Simon Hallahan said he did not believe that more than 20 per cent of the fluid milk goes into butter. Barry Walters, RR, 1, Goderich, of the fluid milk group noted that if a quota for a producer is 1,000 pounds, then the dairy requires 40 per cent more,. thanthat from the producer, The 1,000 pounds is paid for at fluid milk prices, and the 40 per cent additional is at a lower price. But the producer must be ready to provide the additional 40 per cent or he loses his quota sales, Mr. Cardiff suggested that all milk should be pooled and all of it solid on the basis of the same price. Lorne Rodges, representing con- centrated milk producers, said the past four years had been busy ones, with 20 negotiations and 15 arbi- trations in that time. He said that 22 per cent of the milk used in concentrated milk comes from the fluid milk market. He said work was going forward on a milk mar- keting plan, on a quota system to keep surpluses to a minimum. He believed quotas are the only way to prevent the same problems that the broiler industry has. Barry Walters and Simon Halla- han, Blyth, combined to give the report of the fluid milk producers. Mr. Hallahan felt that •the surplus milk going into the eoneentrati d milk field was not too large a prob- tem to face, Mr. Walters said there were many problems to be straight- ened out,. but a lot must happen before the marketing plan is brought to the producers forforihc•ir vote. 1' (I Cheesetnaker Wins Prize for Three Years Wilfred Shortreed, Walton, re- ported for the cheese producers. The production of cheddar was up three million pounds to a total of 112 million pounds last year. He expected larger production in 1962. The Blyth factory had made more cheese in 1961 than the previous year. .Andy Simpson, who also sends his milk to a cheese factory, stated that the skilled cheesemaker at Molesworth had been on the job for some time and was doing an excelent job, winning the British Empire prize for three years in a row. "The cheese industry is in a better position than some of the dairy branches," said Mr. Simp- son, "There was a larger request from Great Britain than we could supply. Sometimes it's better to be in short supply, but it hasn't changed our price any. "There must he some attempt to even up the price of milk. One shipper I know with milk going to Toronto ends up with results low- er than average. The dairies are asking for so much surplus!, it looks as if they are trying to even out the cost of milk. They talk about a milk pool. I don't know what's ahead, I'm sure." Simon Hallahan commented that it was impossible to ship to a big dairy without high-test milk, They must be buying the sttrplus cheap- ly, and selling it to the govern- ment at 64 cents a pound 'butter- fat, Carl Hemingway, Heldman for the Federation, asked why the dairy groups did not insist on hay- ing the contents of a margarine box tilted on the outside of the package. When a consumer buys hotter, she knows• wii.at she buys, but when she buys margarine, she does not know, Warren Zurbrigg felt that the difference in cost of different types of margarine must indicate different contents, Mr. Cardiff felt that scene : was made of corn oil, g • (0°Y itjri 7�?�`7 SECOND MOVE FOR HOUSE --This house is being moved to a new location, and for the second time in its history. The home was purchased by Russel Cook of Blyth from Douglas Campbell on the 4th and 5th Concessions of East Wawanosh, west of Bel - grave. Mr. Campbell had been living in it for three months. The home was moved on -Thursday of last week by W. R. Parsons & Son of Staffa via the boundary to Auburn and east on the county road to Blyth. Telephone and Hydro men lifted wires as the move took place. The same home was moved; from Auburn to the Campbell farm 24 years ago this past June and was haulecl on wagons by two steam engines, one owned by Alex Wells of Westfied and the other by the Westfield syndicate, a group of 30 men. In the move last week all the contents were left in place, including the Christmas decorations.—Photo by Cantelon. considered the best for some people. Barry Walters said, "They claim some margarine costs only from three to seven cents a pouncl to manufacture." Need Control in Fall Harvey Taylor, Brucefield, re porting for the Bean Board, said a deduction of 85 cents a hundred of beans each year, 8c to operate the board and 77 cents to dispose of the beans, and attempt to keep the price favorable was the deduc. tion. In 1960, 70 cents of this went back to the producer. Last year the full 77 cents was returned. Mr. Taylor reported that sur- plus beans were sold to England, There was a good bit of the 1961 crop held over. He said that if there was some way of the board getting control of 10 to 15 per cent of the beans in the fall in- stead of waiting till spring, it would be an advantage and would strengthen the domestic market, Mr. Taylor pointed out that the 77 cent fund is an umbrella over the dealers' heads, too. They can gamble on that, and if they can't sell, they can dump the beans do the board, Carl Hemingway asked if the Board had been criticized for hav- ing too much money. No, He asked if tile Bonn Boardhad the right to go on the market: anter buy over the floor. No, there's quite a bit of grumbling if that. Is done, "If you could compete on the market floor, could you not get that 10 to 15 per cent (if the beans in the fall?" Mr. Taylor said, "Well, we couldn't put thele up. We can handler 100 thousand bushels of beans in aur London plant, but we could not process enough to have them ready at Sarnia at the right time before shipping closes for the winter." Has Similar Plan Russell Bolton reported •for the wheat producers, saying the plan was similar to that used by the White Berm Board. There was nine cents deducted, and five cents had been returned to the producer. There was difficulty this year with sprouted wheat. "We erred in not negotiating anything lower than No. 3 wheat. The result was that lots of farmers sold sprouted wheat for a low price, some as low as 95 cents, Now it is being bought at $1.35 a bushel. The trade mixes it with No. 1 to make a No. 2 wheat to sell." Mr. Bolton said the tion wanted to arrange plan. Murray Gaunt, Wingham, repre- senting the Junior Farmers of the county, claimed that 1961 was one of low ebb as far as membership is concerned, but this runs in cyc- - ]es of 3 to 4 years. Alec McGregor, R.R. 2, Kippen spoke briefly concerning a move in the south of the county toward a marketing board for turnips, He noted that FAME is one of the big- gest jobs farmers have tackled. and said he would Iike to see the government more behind the co- operatives. organizes for auth- ority to buy wheat earlier and get it out of the country, but the) were hampered by lack of storage. Lloyd Lovell, Kippen, reportiti€ for the sugar beet group at the county, noted that the Canadian government had now established e sugar beet policy for the first time based on $4,50 per hundred weight guarantee on sugar coming intc the country, over the past ten year average. Mr. Cardiff said there Was very little eriticism of the plan but i did not satisfy the producer. How- ever, it is a start, and there is op pertunity to go on front there. "We couldn't raise the price of sugar for the consumers. Would be clown our back. However, we roust have locally -grown sugar in case of an emergency. This is supplied by the sugar beet producers, and they must he supported." Charles Thomas, Brussels, sce- ne(' vice-president of the Huron (county Poultry Producers, report- ed that the group required 7,500 signattirres (representing 15 per cent of the prnelticers) our a petition asking for a vote on a marketing Simon Hallahan asked if a co-operative could get too big, Mr. McGregor said that farmers must retain control and create compe. tition, but that there seemed no Iiniit on the size. Better Prices Through, FAME Carl Hemingway spoke in sup. port of FAME. There had beer complaints about the lack of speer in getting under way, but he not. ed there had never been a corpor- ation of any kind in Ontario that had been able to obtain as much share capital as FAME has don( already. The talking point for FAMB had been to obtain better. prices, Now, however, .it is even more important, and he felt that if the farmers did not move quitek- ly, in five years they would not have a marketing place. The broi ler industry is gone they can't even find a place to sell broilers. "The renting of land by proves. SON takes the products right. out of the hands of the farmer," said Mr. Hemingway, "Hogs and cattle are going out on contract. These huge operations are entirely out of the hrtnds of the farmer. Go. ing into FAME is the only way to remain a farmer." "Not As Sorry" To make the farmers feel a bit more happy with their lot, Mr, Hemingway quoted rates of pay in a Seaforth factory at an average of less than $1.00 an hour, with foremen receiving $1.15. That gives a man $1,8'72 a year to keep a family, We can't complain at those prices. Mr. Hemingway not- ed that the people striking at the Royal York Hotel had been getting 67 cents an hour, and only a few could look forward to getting tips. He noted also that in 1945, la- bor involved in manufacturing farm machinery had received one- third of the money paid by the farmers when they purchased. By 1960 labor was getting only one- fifth of the money paid for the "• manufactured products, Simon Hallahan spoke the feel- ings of many of those present, when he said, "I'm not near as sorry for myself as when you started to speak."

'TOMATO ND OTHER NAMES YEARS MO Years ago, the French and Eng- lish called the tomato a love apple and the Italians called it a golden apple. Actually our name for it comes from an old Aztece word Zitonate'.
