This week marked the first overseas shipment, when con tainers for trans-Atlantic ship- ping were filled at the Gorrie warehouse with Farmatic pro- portional feed hammer mills, 100 of them, to be exact. The big order is for the British firm of R. A. Lister Co. Ltd., of England, a subsidiary of the industrial giant Hawker-Sidde- leey. . According to Peter Keens, pro, duction manager, the purchasers intend to use them as demonstra- tion units and have many impor- tant outlets in Europe and behind the Iron Curtain. It is thought this , initial shipment could lead to many repeat orders. To Africa Six ofthe mills are known to be destined for South Africa. With the application of diesel motors, in which Lister specializes, they will be ' used to turn out cornmeal for the blacks in their , remote locations on the township settle- ments.

Bell Canada's request for higher telephone toll rates may have derailed the fight ole the ,Huron County Federation "ijrAt'kiittUre to win bigger toll_. free areas in North Huron; . Mason Bailey of Blyth, presi- dent of the Huron County Federa- tioh of Agriculture made the ob- servation while reporting on the directors' meeting of the Ontario Federation.At that meeting John Cunningham, speaking for 'the Bell company, said that. because Bell Canada had been granted only a five per cent increase it would be very limited in its build- ing program in the next five years. •Mr. Bailey termed ' it "bad news" for the people' of North • Huron. The Federation began the fight last summer to have toll- free calling areas in the northern part of the county enlarged. Peti- tions were circulated, and gained strong support among the resi- dents of the area. The Federation went on to negotiate with Bell after receiving support of the councils'of all municipalities in- volved. Refusal of the increase Bell Canada asked for, however, may have delayed the enlarging ' of toll-free areas according to Mr; Ba1ey. • • He also reported that memlaier'- ship in the OFA is now over 11,000, with over 20 per cent of the Members in Huron and Perth Counties. Huron membership now totals 1,070. Three resolutions from Huron were dealt with at the OFA meet- ing. One was in regard to rates charged by some banks for auto- ma;tically renewing OFA mem- berships. The rate varies from nil to $2 across the province, The 'resolution passed but it was pointed out that there is little that. can be done sincejndividual bank „ managers set the policy for their branches. A second resolution which advocated the establishment of more overseas trade rhissions to sell Ontario produce also passed. "It -went over big" according to ,Mr. Bailey. The third resolution, asking the abolition of the zone system of pricing petroleum fuels, also passed, although it was felt that nothing could be done to stop the LION RUSS ZURBRIGG and wife, Margaret made their' target distance of one lap, five miles, in the Lions walkathon in old fashioned attire before Russ returned to his duties as committee co-ordinator of the Lions Crazy Days.

Two new resolutions, moved by Adrian Vos of Blyth, passed the Thursday meeting. The first called on the OFA to contihue''t!q press the' pro/Tertian' goiret'rimeh1 to put a halt to vertical integra- tion and to curtail livestock con- tracts and at the same time re- quested finaning to help replace that given by non-farm interests. The second resolution called on the Ontario Municipal Board to reverse the suggested code of practice which now applies to farms. The 'code prohibits new livestock buildings being erected within 2,000- feet of a residence. The resolution asks that munici- palities be forbidden tozone any area as residential to within 2,000 feet of an established farming operation.
