A greater spread in prices between
the top grades •of pure-bred Short-
horns, and animals of lower qual-
ity, is going to be one of the ellarae
teristies' of the beef cattle market in
the future, it was pl'edicted here on
Thursday night by Harold White,
Guelph, secretary of the Canadian
Shorthorn Association, and editor of
"Shorthorn Association". The evi-
dence of the past year indicates, he
said, that while the price level in the
beef market has been falling, the
prices paid for Shorthorns of top
quality have been staying up.
"I'm not sure that I have all the
answers, but I feel that those who
are willing to go out to produee
Shorthorns of superior quality have
little to fear from the future of
this industry," he said. The price
trends of the future, he observed,
may be quite satisfactory to those
who have complained in the past that
not enough difference in price was
being paid to recognize the difference
between ordinary cattle and animals
of higher quality.
"There has not been, in 1953, any,
or at any rate more than very little,
falling off in the market for good
Shorthorns," Mr. White said. "I
think there are market trends in the.
and poor ones is going to get wider
commercial field to indicate that the
price spread between the good ones
and wider. The commercial buyers
are going to demand better sires."
Mr, White spoke at the annual
banquet of the Perth -Huron Shorthorn
Club, held hi Egmuodville United
Church, The dinner was attended by
about 150, including Shorthorn breed-
ers and their wives, and invited
guests,
McKILLO`P
Radio Forum S.S. No, 2 McKillop,
inet at the horn of Mr. and Mrs.
Ephraim Clark on Tuesday evening,
Dec. 15th, attendance was smaller
than usual on account of the heavy
roads, however the warm welcome
of the hosts coupled with a lively
discussion .of the subjects to hand
made it a real interesting and prof-
itable evening. Discussions are as
follows: 1(1) What are some of the
facts of farming that you think
town and city people are not well
enough informed on? We feel city
people should be better informed as
to the actual prices farmers receive
for their products, also cost .of pro-
duction, and spread between farm
prices, and consumer prices on all
lines of farm produce, and also the
fact that agricultural producers re-
ceive less than 20 per cent of na-
tional income, and lastly the long
hours that obtain obi anode farms
compared to the., 40 hour week or
less prevalent in the manufacturing
industry. (2) HOW can you in your
Farm Forum help improve under-
standing on the problems you have
listed in reply to question •one? Ex-
change of members from farm and
city groups such as farm forums and
consumer groups, we believe that
direct contact is the surest way po
reach understanding. i(3) If you
were on the executive of a provin-
cial or national farm organization,

on the hustle all night they couldn't

The Hendersns had
good year in 1953!
"A year of real progress for me and
my family ...1953 1 Early in the year,
I decided to go ahead with plans for
expanding my garage business. But
the job required a substantial outlay
—more than I had available. So I
talked it over with Pete Bingham,
manager of our Dominion Bank
Branch. He showed me ways to stretch my capital and be-
tween us we decided how much financial assistance I needed.
"The move paid off in increased business and profits—even
better than I had hoped! Besides repaying a good portion of
the loan and meeting other commitments, I've been able to
put aside extra money in our Dominion Bank savings account.
"Yes, 1953 was a good year! It helped me increase my
assets—business, savings and so on. And it brought security
for my wife and children a big step closer!”
Like you, Mr. Henderson, The Dominion Bank had
a good year in 1953. Just as your business expanded,
so did ours—maintaining its impressive record of
growth. Like your personal balance sheet, our
annual statement shows imposing figures—in assets,
deposits and loans. During 1953, more people than
ever took advantage of the services of The Dominion
Bank ... where every account is an important one.
