Attacks against farm marketing boards with supply
management powers are corning from all directions.
A few months ago, it was a special committee of the
Economic Council of Canada. Before that, it was the Fraser
Institute. Before that, it was the consumers association.
Now comes the Grocery Products Manufacturers of
Canada, the GPMC. An investigative task force, sponsored of
course, by the manufacturers, is saying that supply manage-
ment faun marketing boards' are adding "at least $1 billion a
year to the Canadian food bill."
These boards are said to have had "by far the greatest im-
pact" on the Canadian food system of any federal or provin-
cial government policy.. They are costing Canadian families
$10 a year more for broiler chickens, a total of $76,500,000,
and an additional $7 a family for eggs or a total of $55,800,000
annually.
Not only do the boards gouge consumers, but they are by
far the greatest threat to Canada's food future because they
cause a rising tide of imported food and an inability by Cana-
dian farmers and processors to expand their markets.
The clincher comes deep on the third page of the release
castigating marketing boards. The spokesman for the group,
George Fleischman, says the manufacturers are concerned
that the food and beverage industry "may be unable to con-
tinue to provide food at present favorable price levels."
Get ready for some drastic increases in the price of food.
You are being softened up for the big blow and the manufac-
turers need a convenient patsy, a fall guy,, a scapegoat so
they are blaming marketing boards.
This column has consistently supported farm marketing
boards, even supply management boards. I have also
castigated those same boards for mistakes but I am convinc-
ed those boards are still the farmers' best friend.
Without them, organizations such as the Grocery Products
Manufacturers of Canada and the huge multi -national cor-
porations would have control of the food chain from the
E�Osie Iia E�m,.e Oma. N38 2C 7
ground to the table.
They do control it now after it leaves the. farm gate.
Farmers have no clout at all without these boards. Do Cana-
diana want to put all but a handful of corporate farms off the
land? Do we want to ruin rural Canada as we know it today?
I think the grocery manufacturers kill their argument
against farm marketing boards when they mention, also
deep down in the news release, that Canadians spend only
17.5 per cent of their disposable income on food. It is the
lowest per cent of any nation in the world.
Can there be that much wrong with marketing boards,
even supply management boards, when we are that for-
tunate??
Profits in the food industry, says the GPMC, have dropped
from 2.59 cents per dollar of sales in 1978 to 2.36 cents last
year.
" But the release says nothing about the tremendous, in-
crease in farm bankruptcies. It is worthwhile to note that the
products which have supply management marketing boards
are in much better condition than those which have not.
The beef, sector has shunned any kind of board for 25 years
and they are the people who are hurting so much now. More
than 50 per cent of the farm bankruptcies are beef farmers or
within the beef chain. Hog farmers, too, are suffering and
they have, up until now, shunned the idea of supply manage-
ment. •
No, Mr. Fleischmann, I'm not convinced that these boards
are the devils in the food chain. I do not believe they are goug-
ing the public to the tune of $1 billion. I think they are a group
of honest men simply trying to supply the Canadian public
with good food when the people want it at a price that gives
them a reasonable return on their labor and investment.
Unfortunately, too many of them are not getting those
returns and some of the reason for those poor prices rests
squarely on the shoulders of lobby groups such as the
Grocery Products Manufacturers of Canada.

Milking your COWS -
Produce More
Why lose milk production
this winter through. unsound
practises? Nutrient
requirements do vary with
production do it becomes
increasingly important to
feed a cow milting 70 pounds
per day much different from
a 40 pound producer.
Dairymen who can't afford
to purchase protein sup-
plement and feed according
to requirements are only
fooling themselves - through
reduced milk yields.
Overfeeding nutrient
requirements to dairy cows
can also be. as serious as.
underfeeding in terms of
additional feed costs and
herd health problems that.
can develop.
The ideal way to ensure
that the dairy cow ration is
balanced for all important
nutrients is to request an
analysis of home grown
roughages.. This service is
available through your local
Agricultural Office and
offers the following analysis:
Type I -Dry Matter, Crude
Protein - $7; Type II, Dry
matter, Crude Protein,
Calcium, Phosphorous,
Magnesium and Potassium,
$13; Type III, ,Dry Matter,
Crude Protein, Calcium,
Phosphorous, Magnesium,
Potassium, Manganese,
Copper and Zinc - $16; and,
Digestible Protein, $8.
To formulate a com-
puterized dairy ration based
on the results of home grown
feeds there is an additional
cost of $45. For any ad-
ditional rations formulated
in the same year the cost
would be reduced to $20.
Many dairymen have taken
advantage of this service to
improve herd health
problems related to nutrition
along with maximizing on
potential milk produotiou,

Mustangs split weekend games
The Clinton Mustangs split
their weekend games last
week although both games
appeared to be in the bag
early in the third periods.
On Friday night, they
narrowly beat Hanover
Barons 5 - 4 while on Sunday
they dropped a 9 - decision
to the FerguR Green
Machine.
Bill Peters scored the only
goal of the first period for
Clinton • in the Hanover
game, while Randy Ellig tied
the score early in the second
period for Hanover. Willy
Denomme and Brent Dow
scored for the Stangs before
the period ended to put
Clinton up by two.
Early in the ' third period,
Clinton scored two more
times once by Bill Peters and
again by 13rent Dew to give
the Stangs a four goal lead,
but the Barons, not to be
counted out yet, fought back
with three goals of their own
and that's the way the game
ended 5 - 4 in favor of Clinton.

took 23 penalty minutes on
nine minors and a major.
But some strong goaltending
by Jeff Denomme kept the
Stangs in the game.
The Mustangs took
command in the second
period as they outscored
Fergus three to one to give
the Stangs a one goal lead
going into the third period.
Brad Armstrong notched a
pair and Mike Hodge had the
single.
Earlyin the third period,
Jim Fritzley put the Stangs
ahead by two and Fergus got
one back two minutes later.
Mike Hodge scored his
second of the game at the
eight minute mark to regain
the two goal lead, but a few
minutes later the roof fell in
on the Mustangs as Fergus
scored five goals in four and
a half minutes.
Tony Gibbing scored the
