Fine Church Record
James W. Medd, who recently
retired from his position as Rec-
tor's Warden of St, Mark's Ang-
lican Church, has a record of
service to his church of which
the church is proud. He was first
elected as people's warden in
1902, which position he held un-
til 1905 when he was appointed
by Rev. M. Edmunds as rector's
warden. This office he held until
1920 when he resigned. In 1929,
he was again appointed rector's
warden by Rev. T. V. Pocock;
this position he held continuously
until he resigned at the annual
Vestry meeting with a record of
40 years' service as warden.

records it was found that even in
the few years in the 20's when

CARDIFF ASKS
EXPLANATION
OF T -B DELAY
L. E. Cardiff, Progressive Con-
servative member for Huron
North, in the House of Commons
at Ottawa Tuesday, April 24, for
explanation. of delay in com-
pensation payments being made
to. farmers in his riding who hay •'
lost cattle in TB -testing.
Mr. Cardiff, directing his ques-
tion to Agriculture Minister
James Gardiner, said it was Fdx
months or more since the cattle
in question were tested, but
farmers not yet had been paid
for those that had gone down.
Many farmers had had to replace
those cattle and borrow money
to do it.
Replying in the House the next
day, Robert McCulbbin, Parliaan-
entary Assistant to Mr. Gardiner,
said that all claims that have
complied with departmental reg-
ulations have been paid. There
was a short delay during the
month of March, as the amount
of money that was in estimates
to pay for T.B. reactors ran out
along about the end of February,
and until the supplementary esti-
mates were passed at the end of
March, no money was available
during that month.
"But all these cheques went
out the first part of April, so
that the money will be in the
formers' hands long before now,"
he stated.
"There are still some 65 claims
in the County of Huron that have
not been paid, but as soon as they
comply with the regulations they
will be paid," Mr. McCulbbin con-
cluded.
he did not hold office he always
attended Vestry meetings. In fact
he has attended every Vestry
meeting since 1902. He has al -
Ways been faithful in attendance
at church and now at 82 he as
usually found in his pew on Sun-
day morning.

Offer Outstanding Value for the Money
The chart above clearly shows that in the post-war adjustments to higher
costs of material and labour, an outstanding job has been done in main-
taining a low percentage of increase on the retail prices of Massey -Harris
implements made in Canada.
Raw materials are shown at 103.7% and wages of Massey -Harris Canadian
plants 119.1% increase over 1941. Yet Massey -Harris prices of Canadian -
made products were increased only 53% in the same period- This is a very
moderate increase indeed when compared with the index Of all commodities
which is up to 83.8%.
Farm implement price indices increased only 53% whereas there was an
increase in the price of farm products of 82.3% and farm wage rates of
134.3%.
The great world demand for combines, tractors, and power machines has
created a volume which permits high operating efficiency in relation to
production and selling costs, making possible the partial absorption of the
increased costs of materials and labour. Massey -Harris will continue to,
offer the utmost in ,up-to-the-minute design, quality of materials and work-
manship, and price value.
Chart shows increase to October, 1950, over October, 1941, except farm wages, which show the increases to August
1950, over August, 1941.
