It's all important
Chicks, like babies, must have special feeds,
specially prepared—to high quality control stan-
dards. Digestive upsets in chicks can be costly
—and usually result from feeding stale feed.
The longer feed is stored, the more it deter
iorates.

fresh, really fresh. Daily manufacture
at our mill ensures this. When you buy
SHUR-GAIN YOU know you are 'get=
ting the freshest, the most economical

WINGHAM w ONTARIO
•••••••••••,
Mrs, Aileen Bucknam of the
Canadian Association of Consum-
ers addressed the Ontario Hog
Producers Co-operative annual
meeting in Toronto recently on the
subject of pork products,
She said that pork is a good
source of iron, protein and one of
the B vitamins and that lean pork
is reported to haVe five times as
much as any other meat. Dr.
Elizabeth Chant Robertson, author
of "Nutrition for Today" feels that
there is more thiamine in pork be-
cause of the high diet of wheat
germ and bran fed to hogs. Since
thiamine cannot be stored in the
body but must 'be consumed
Mrs, Bucknam suggested that hog
growers had a sound reason for
promoting perk. •
Great steps have been made in
producing lean pork through ex-
perimental cross-hreeding, the corn-
-tined efforts of ntitritionists, gene-
ticists and producers.
The speaker said` that much pub:
licity has been given to the sub-,
ject of the horrors of consuming
fat with its cholesterol-producing
tendency, which can lead to hard-
ening of the arteries and over-
weight. Even though 'future ex-
periment should prove this problem
not as serious as' now thought, fat
meat is waste food with regard to
many food elements.
Mrs: Bucknam, quoted Dr. Rob-
ertson as claiming that pork can
be the fattest of all meats.
The speaker said that infants of
two are now given well-cooked
pork with all the 'fat removed.
Experiments have been made at
Sick 'Children's Hospital as to the
best methods and cooking time for
pork to be used for feeding young
children.
The C.A.C. has had nUmerouS
complaints about the high per-
centage of fit in sausage. One,
committee member, a home econ-
omist, found 10 ozs. ,of fat in two
pounds of Schneider's country-
Style sausage. This firm has a
repqtation for high quality 'and it
was not a case of extra fat being
added to get a cheap product.
Schneider's explained it as a vari-
ation they face because of fat
hogs, ,
John 5, Whyte, president of the
Meat Packers Council of Canada
said in a recent address, "Tank
cars of lard can be bought for 9c
per pound or less, So it can be
seen that 'fat hogs do not merit a
premium price and at the same
time are detrimental to pork con-
sumption.
He also said that hog production
Was Up, in 1958 and that it was tin-
fertunate that quality did hot
accompany the increase in num-
bers.
Mrs, Bucknam felt 'that the Hog
Producers could do more through
public relations by offering the
consumer information On how to
use pork and its many products.
She said they had at their dis-
posal many sources of Information
including booklets put 'out by the
ConstiMer Section, Dept, 'off Agri,
culture both provincial and federal,
'Women's TnatitUteS4 universities
and agricultural eolleges arc ad-
ditional sources of information
available,

BOMAR CO-OP HELD
ANNUAL MEETING
BELGRAVE--The annual meet-in g of the Belgrave Co-operative
Association was held in the Fores-
ters' hall on Tuesday evening with
a turkey banquet, catered to by the
Belgrave Women's Institute. The
meeting opened with the call to
order by .Simon Hallahan, followed
by grace by Rev, C. A, Krug. Mem-
bers of the head table were intro-
duced by Simon Hallahan and the
guests were introduced by Bud
'Orr.
C. H. Coultes introduced the
guest speaker, A. Musgrave of
Clarksburg, past president of the
U.C.O., and -a present director of
that organization, who spoke on
"Co-operatives". Albert Bieman
expressed thanks to the guest
speaker and Sam Thompson ex-
pressed thanks to the ladies for the
fine dinner.
'Clark Johnston led the group in
a sing-song, accompanied by Mrs.
Athol Bruce. He also favored with
several Irish songs. Mrs. John
Nixon gave an accordion solo.
The 'business session followed
with minutes of the last annual
meeting read by Herman Nethery.
The financial statement,. showing
a net saving for the year of $18,500,
was read by W. Harvey.
James Michie, president, gave
the following directors' report: 'IR
has been thd 'best year in the his-
tory of the Belgrave Co-Op. Total
sales' amounted to $367,456, an in-
crease 'of $51,823 over last year.
This is a very encouraging increase
in our business. Should this in-
crease continue for three years we
would be doing a half million dollar
business. This would be, something
to aim at and 'quite possible 'to
achieve. The Co-Op business is
increasing in volume each year in
the face of strong competition from
other firms who have, been estab-
lished much longer. The Co-Op,
controlled by farmer members, is
something of which every farmer
should be justly proud. 'The Co-OP,
owned and controlled by its mem-
bers, with dividends going hack to
those who helped to create them, is
the most democratic form of busi-
ness.
"A by-law was passed at the last
annual meeting stating that no
director shall hold office for more
than two ,three-year terms. This.
will eventually eliminate some of
the older directors who have serv-
ed on the 'board for a number of
years and have seen the business
grow from a Farmers' Club to the
present volume of business. We
trust that from among our mem-
bers there will always he those
who are Co-Op minded enough to
spend same time and effort on the
board of directors and that the
present interest and growth in the
Co-Op will be maintained' in the
coining years, and through the Icy,
al support of its members will be-
come bigger and better each year;
not only in a financial way but
also as a service to the community.
While retiring from the board of
directors this year, my interest in
the Co-Op will still continue and
I trust that the same harmony will
continue among the directors in
the future as it has in the past."
M. R. "Bud" Orr, manager, in
his report, told of the 'success of
the past year and that 15 new
members were accepted into the
organization during 1958. He stet.;
ed that bulk feeding is becoming
quite prevalent in the feed industry
and the Co-Op is now contemplat-
ing 'the purchase of a new feed
truck with equipment to handle
bulk feeds. There is also the pos-
sibility of the Co-Op entering the
petroleum business, which is prov-
ing to, be a wonderful asset to vol.
ume and in service to the farmer,
The directors recommended a:
deferred dividend oD 4 per cent on
purchases. W. Harvey was' in
charge of the election of the dir-
ectors, as follovvs Re-elected, C. R.
Coultes; new members, John R.
Taylor and Mel Craig.
The directors met on Wednes-,
day to select a .:president.. Simon
Hallahan was re-elected with first
vice-president, Albert Bieman; sec-
ond vice-president, R. H. Coultes;
secretary, Herman Nethery.
At this meeting the group pre-
sented James Michie, retiring pre-
sident, with a gift in, recognition
of his many years of service with
the Co-Op,
