The question in the minds of interested observ- ers is whether the directors of, the Co-operative, long on experience at producing hogs but short on the actual selling of them, can get as much for the producers as the directors of United Livestock Sales, some of .whom have been in the hog selling business for over 30 years. .' !feed experts say if you only have ten dollars to'spend on mill. feed for a cow in a year, to give it to her when she's dry. She will pay you better returns for it than if you feed it to herduring her milking period. A levy or one percent on pro- ducers' gross milk sales to build up a fund to stabilize milk prices has been approved by Ontario's. whole milk, concentrated milk, cream and cheese producers. Col- lections could start as early as June 1, but will probably not get underway till late summer or fall Concentrated milk and cheese producers, who have been financ- ing their own two -price system in the past, will benefit directly with the' cream and fluid milk produc- ers contributing to their programs through the new fund.

Club's Annual The Porter's Hill Community Club held its annual meeting on Wednesday last at the home of Mrs. Alvin Betties, The president, Mrs, Peter Harrison, was in charge of the meeting which opened by repeating the Lord's Prayer. Sec- retary and treasurer's reports Were heard and a review of the year's activities was given by the secretary. Mrs. William McIlwain presided over the election of officers which resulted as follows: president, Mrs. Peter Harrison; vice-president, Mrs. Alvin Betties; secretary, Mrs, Gordon Manning; treasurer, Mrs, Bert Harris; pianist, Mrs. Blanche Cox; work committee, Mrs. Austin Harris, Mrs. John McCowan and Mrs. Gordon Manning; sick and visiting committee, Mrs. William Cox and Mrs. Donald Harris. The meeting closed with repeat- ing the Mizpah benediction and lunch was served by the hostess. The next meeting will be at the home of Mrs. Allen Betties. Egg prices at Ontario markets pretty well follow the trend set at Toronto, but with at least 58t/a percent of the province's eggs marketed at Toronto it is virtually impossible for any private operat- or to manipulate egg prices in Ontario by dumping or withhold- ing on the Toronto market. American studies show that hogs lose nearly half their shrinkage during the first ten miles to mar- ket. A publicity and public relations department, • soon to be set up by the Ontario Federation of Agri- culture with funds already prom- ised by the co-operatives and the hog producers; may well 'prove to be one of the first steps toward closer co-ordination of Ontario's farm commodity groups. Am- bitions, though, in the hinds of some of our farm organizers to draw co-ops, hog, milk, fruit pro- ducers and so on under one board of"directors and one treasury will be thwarted for at least several Years by the reluctance of dairy groups to yield their autonomy and independence.

The May eriean Cominittee of the l"nter- nationaI Federation of Agricultur- al Producers indicate that Canad- ian farm organization leaders in attendance have a much clearer concept of world farm conditions, social, political, and economic, than have their United States contemp- oraries.
