Speaking in support of this're- aolution the chairman quoted the editor of the Ottawa Farm Jour- nal as saying, "Thedairy industry has only one real enemy.

In his review of the marketing situation, Mr. Rettie noted that not all butter held in stock could be termed surplus, but'that it was wise to keep a reserve of about 25 million pounds. Be predicted that if butter stocks increased as all indications showed they would thbn there be a surplus of 50 million pounds by next May. The June set-aside is down this year to $340,000 instead of the 1953 total of $365,000, and at the same time, due to the advertising campaign of the past two years, the per capita consumption of, butter has gone up, • Mr. Bettie mentioned attending a conference at Washington on the matter of produce marketing, ook! your STATE FARM insurance agent can give you one ALL TH EE Lloyd Et e Phone 78r5, Zurich and reported that there was some move towards forming an inter- national organization and pooling resources to market surplusses, beginning with skim milk powder. In 'mentioning the provincial association's intention of request- ing that the floor price of 58 cents be maintained, he mentioned that some folks would ask, "Why should the• federal government absorb the loss of the butter pro- ducers?" His answer to this question was: Margarine sales are under the control of the Federal Government. If that government brings in vegetable oils, then they are definitely responsible for see- ing that the dairy farmers do not suffer as a result of this action." Refuting the statement that has been made that farmers sell theft cream and then buy the cheaper margarine, Mr. Rettie stated that 95 per cent of the farmers who sold cream were buying their but- ter right from the cream truck. "The basis for our product must be quality. I don't believe we should rely too much upon Acts or bans, much as we would like them. enforced, We must make up our minds to produce a better product, and continually tell the people about it." Other speakers at the meeting were W: B. Hotson, St. Marys, the District "B" representative to the Ontario Board and Filmore Chapple, Cromarty, the president of the Perth County Cream Pro- ducers' Association, Consideration was given a pro- posed sanitary code.

He had just been aske why there were no women indud ed in -the courses given in th freshly opened No, 1 School of Food Services. However, the OC of the schoo is F/L I. C. MacRae, formerly Williamstown, and she is the on woman connected with the admin istration of the new school, Two Courses Open When the young men -destined to attend the pew school arrive at the Clinton Station it has al ready been decided whether' they will take up -cooking, 'or will get training in the job of being food service attendants. There is a multitude of items which go into the preparing of meals .which can not be termed cooking. These are mainly the job of the latter. The food service attendant is trained in the ways of helping the cooks•in their basic food,prepara- tion, and also learn how to plan formal dinners, and functions of ail kinds, issuing of whites,. etc. The cooks are trained in basic methods, first in regular class- rooms where practical demonstra- tions are given, then after about eight weeks of this and practical experience in the matter of food preparation, the men are ready to begin cooking in earnest. At the Clinton school they be in working on food. quantities. for 100 persons Instruction iso given too,t on the type of cooking which is possible at pioneer stations where all the equipment used in the model kit- chens is not available. All cooking is done on a large scale.

F/S Bone, chief instructor, com- - mented on the fact that after the 12 weeks course the student air- man would enter the field, work- ing as helper in any one of the many kitchens operated in the.

One advantage to the student cook, is the fact that he is learning a trade which will be useful.. to him in civilian life. After 20 years, said Mr. Bone, the cooks in the Airforce will be on a par with'tlie master chef in civilian life. The classes of 20 men are scheduled to start every four weeks, and the first group, is ex- pected to graduate in December. Under continual assessment from the time of their commencing the course, the sttdents are judged on all of their work.

If your faithful agent happened, by some dire mischance, to be a referee under tbe jurisdiction of the Canadian Rugby Union, his sleep at nights during the season would be beset by horrid spectres and hideous dreama. 3'or, in any game, a inghtinarish situation could suddenly face the intrepid soils, ti cough no fault of their own, but via rules which uncertainly govern the actual play We mean that rule concerning invasion of the playing field by an' unauthorized player" who dashes from his bench, on sudden impulse and brings down an opposing player who happens to be scampering by, ,at the moment, running free and clear, It still isn't as clear-cut and definite • as a rule of such importance should be•' Being', an optimistic soul, we somehow gained the unprea sion that at last the CRU had got away from the timorous. rule that left the situation in uncertainty, and had come up with sharply etched legislation so that a touch -down to the team offended against became completely automatic, instead of leaving the referee in the middle. But the new rule isn't quite that sharply. designed. It's - full of deceptive verbiage Clause B sets forth that when an invasion' of the field by an unauthorized person occurs, when it is obvious to the referee that a touch -down might have been scored, ho shall . award a touch -down. Any wsa:itherized player or players shall be immediately disqualified from fur- ther participation in the game. That doesn't make the touch -down autorriatic, Not the way we read these things. It. still leaves the offence a matter for official judgement, But, in .slightly contradictory fashion, Clause C sets forth that should the unauthorized person who invaded the field be a player, coach, trainer, equipment man or any other person permitted a place on the: team bench, an automatic touch- down shall be awarded. This is the right ruling, the straight- forwardruling, whereas Clause 13 merely confuses and leaves room for argument, So if ai,ny player should dart from the bunch this season miming and overthrow a rival, he had better shout: "Pm working. under Clause B", which will put the onus right 61 the officials, the poor guys who are always in the middle. . ler comments and suggestions for thts column win be welcomed by Elmer Ferguson, c/o Calvert House, 437 Yonge St., Toronto. ralvertbisTRLERs LIMITED AMHERSTBURG ONTARIO PICKETT and CAMPBELL sensnmensnannememmummeammrsmasseenammessesseanwe ate; *, '� :,;i`�•'�•'a.
