Hemingway The Government has set a floor .price for turkeys-i25c per lb, live weight, Toronto, for un- der 20 labs. By the time this ap- pears you will, no doubt, haver heard considerable comment. The first reaction will he that the support' price is too low. Let us consider just what this means. First we must agree that the Government has no desire to go into the turkey business and I don't think the turkey growers "would want it; thus the price had to ibe low. However to take legal action on import bans or quotas a support price had to .be set which was the real reason dor setting it. Secondly the price had to Ibe law in view of the experience of the UuS, gov- ernment in price setting. (Some ,people learn by the experience of others, which is cheapest, others learn by their own experience which is sometimes painful and expensive, some never learn which is disastrous. As a result of .government action previous! turkeys are currently selling in California for 15 to 16e a lb. and were being inypor ted into (Canada in quantity, thus we can he thankful to the government for marking it legally possible to impose import (bans and quotas which I understand has already been done. Again we night con- sider a higher support price. II. 5. has gone to great lengths to give 90 to 95% parity price to farmers; the result is huge surpluses. They have tried to control production in grain crops by their soil bank plan yet after spending huge amounts to reduce acreage, production in- creased. Now they are facing international difficulties in try- ing to dispose of government owned grain. 'United States has, by these policies, earned the doubtful distinction of !being the fdrst'`country to have a'national debt greater than the total as- sessed value of the property of the country: Q realize that farmers are working at ,a disadvantage in 'Canada but I think we should learn from the experience of the 1LS. and . realize that govern- ment buying 01± farm produce is not the answer. Industry a sim- ilar problem: In the steel indus- try 'expenses are increasing at the rate of 9% in the past year while produetion efficiency has increased only 15%. This +M the same process as (buying a faun and growing a cash crop .year afteryear without, returning any fertility to the land.'IFarm- ers know that -eventually there will be no crop. The final can only be the re- alization, by all people that, "I am my 'brothers keeper". Tillie I believe even •though I am worldly enough to sometimes wonder "whose brother ani I?" A "dog eat dog" policy 'is bad, when practised by a few groups, in any economy; when all grou ps enter the fight it means ruin. R seems to me that our farm groups must provide a. sane ex- ample of moderation, even though. our (patience' is sorely tried by the price squeeze at the present 'time, and refrain from making impossible demands on the government. While I don't know the perfect answer 1 am convinced that ,farmers, through their Co -Cps, and marketing ag- encies can ensure a satisfactory return for their efforts and thus provide time for our economy to become snore fairly equalized.. CROP REPORT During the past week approxi- mately one-third of the wheat crop in the •County was cut' with the binder, and (many of the far- mers plan to thresh this wheat this week. 'Haying operations have been almost completed. With the sunshine and adequate ;moisture supply corn fields in (the + County have made rapid growth. Last Wednesday a rath- er serious outbreak of Army - worm was reported in a corn field +in 'McKillop twp. The own- er of this particular field plans to spray the Armyworms. Corn is a crop which will make a re- markable recovery tfrom the type of damage done by Armyworm or by storms.

In an interesting letter written to John Murray by William Steet of iPicton some early his- tory of 'Egmoniiville is given. Mr. ISteet_says in part: "My vis- its to my native heath have not been frequent. One of the most notable changes to me, is the disappearance of the :woods. Houses that were invisible from the road until you would come near them, are now to be seen from miles distant. The forests where I used to -roam carrying a musket procured from Jake McGee in exchange for an old brass watch, have all disappear- ed. The old school house I at- tended on the hill is gone. The old unoccupied brick house in which the boys used to settle their disputes afer school, was replaced long ago by +Connie Van Egmond's residence. When I started to the old school Wil- Hahn +Gerrond was ,teacher, !There were many big fellows in school those days, particularly" in wint- er, and a little fellow had no chance, and I didn't go much in Gerrond's time.
