Dear Sir: During the year 1962, ,farm= •v -loolvat prodUcer controlled mar- keting and throughout the year there will be a number of Mar- keting plans resented,,, and Not. ed u oii�°ls -H t �: producers,-2 h s hog-.cin ce re :cin ` .e id b ��-.tt; an op ortuni . endorse t pp ty .to endor&e the hog marketing plan. • Egg pro- ducers are' not satisfied with the returns from their _laying, .stocks. and will be given an opportun-, ity to` -Sign a petition requesting a vote for an, egg marketing plan. , • Due to .the large surpluses of •butter° and . skim milk powder which we. have on hand today, milk producers have agreed among themselves that there should be an overall milk mar- keting plan and,a vote 'on this plan will likely be taken later in the year. Turnip growers and 'processors agree that a marketing plan , would help their- industry. Potato growers are also considering "a market„ ing plan. Many large beef producers, and . commission agents ,.are ad- vising— producers to ,. -send.' all finished cattle to the open mar- ket. I am convinced that .only then will we •b able to obtain the ;highest ". 5 '— ' icc for our beef cattle. I believe that if all producers would agree to place their livestdck . on , ,the open market a marketing plan •would not be necessary for beef cattle. I have been associated with the Federaton of, Agriculture' for many years and have attend- ed the short curse on Market- ing and Co-operation at Guelph, I have been seeking an answer to the problems• which face the farmers today and to date the oat atisiver°`1—can - -nidus-- a: I solution---tour-problems-is-to- ! support ..marketing 'plans. I believe it 'is unnecessary for me to advise the pro . ucers•. re- garding the hog vote on March 6th. Being a producer.for -many years I know the hog marketing plan is beneieaI to the produc- er .and deserves' our support. We have only to , look at the broiler producers to see what can happen to: �a commodity that does_ not have some sortof orderly 'marketing.. I regard it°:.my duty •to ,pro- vide ' some initiative and. to ex- press my views on producer marketing and I therefore ad- vise all producers to support the marketing plans for all will farm commodities., that 'come before you in the near future.
