ATKFY - . -Editor and Publisher THURSDAY, MARCH 27, 1947 IT LOOKS LIKE A GOOD BET TO VS ream producers of Huron County and Ontario will have the opportamity durina die month Of April, of voting on the question of whether or not .they favour bringing their product into a marketing soheme under tJhe provi'si'ons of the Farm P'roduc'ts Marketing Act. The matter was to have been explained at a meeting in Clinton Tuesday afternoon, but =fortunately ties meeting had to be postponed .on account of weather • conditions. Further meetings are scheduled for Exeter on April 7, Seaforth on April 8, and Bellgra!ve on April 9. ' Huron County producers are familiar with tine Hog Marketing Scheme which came into effect last year, and will recall some details of how the vote was taken in the fall of 1945. The Creams 'Producers' Scheme follows very Closely that of the Hog Marketing Scheme. It provides for setting up a board to be known as the Ontar a Cream Producers' Marketing Board. This Board will have power to regulate. and 'control the marketing of cream produced 4si Ontiaario and manufactured into butter, and to Stimulate. i'ncrease and improve the Marketing of cream for butter. manufacture. Provision also is made for setting up county groups and district aommititees of producers,and the representa- tives of these d§strict committees, niin'e in 'number --covering the Whole Province --will each year select the members of the Marketing Board. The 'scheme also provides for the licensing of all creamery operators, at a nominal fee of $1., and also licensing all cream producers, on the basis of a fee of one-tenth. of 'a cent per pound •butter fat on all cream delivered to a creamery. There will be also a negotiating committee of ten, five to be appointed annually by the Marketing Board and five by the creamery operators. The negotiating committee is empowered to negotiate and settle agreements respecting (a) minimum prices, (b) foams of contract, (e) conditions of sale, (d) grades and quality, (e) price differentials between grades, (f) weighing and testing, (g) transpor- tation. Further . provision is made in the scheme for arbitration in the event that the negotiating committee fails to reach an agreement. The vote of the cream producers of Ontario on this scheme is scheduled to take place between March 31 and feplul 30. Three alternative methods of voting are pro- vided, All cream producers are required to register to be eligible to vote. They may register in person at the county agricultural representative's office, and vote at the time of registering, on ,any day (between March 31 and April 30,; The second method is by regd'Stering and voting with the Deputy -Returning Officer in charge at public meetings which are being 'held in each county. This method of voting will apply only up to April 19, by which. date all the public meetings will have been held. After April 19, any producer of cream may reginter by mail with his agricultural representative, who will send tat to the producer a ballot, which must be marked, signed and re- turned to the agr"reuitural represenlbattiive not later than April 30, 1947. Any ballots received after April 30 will net be taken into consideration. Only one person is allowed to vote from each operat- ing farm unit, but that person may be the husband, wife) son or daughter on the farm. The vote is being taken under the jurisdiction of the Ontario Farm Products Mar- keting Board, of rwhiieh G. F. Perkin is chairman. The series of public meetings throughout the Province, how- ever, is being organized by the Ontario Creams Producers Association, Named in the proposed scheme as the firet mem- bers of the Ontario Cream Producers' Marketing Board are the following: Crawford Dewar, Braeside; James Gif- ford, Ennienore; W. J•. Wood, Alliston; J', Earl Lane. R.R. 1, St. Anne; William R'ettie, R.R. 3, Fergus; Harry Gowdy, Wroxeter; Louis Davis, Dobbianton; Arthur D. Wilson, Chatham, Copies of the proposed seheme may be secured from the Agricultural Representative's Office, Clinton, or at the public meetings whibh are being held. © 0 EDITORIAL COMMENT Thought for Today The man who waits for things to turn up usually.
