FEDERATION NEWS During the last week in May the farmers of Huron County will bere- ceiving the annual June questionnaire concerning live stock, farm labour and acreages on their own farms. The questionaire is being sent out by the Agricultural Division of the Dominion ,Bureau of Statistics in Co= operation with the Provincial Depart- ment of Agriculture. The answers given by the farmers to the questions asked on the form will provide the basis for establishin • the acreage sown to field crops m 1950 and the numbers of live stock and poultry in Canada at June 1st, 1950. The success of the survey and the accuracy of the agricultural statistics published by the bureau and the sev- eral Provincial Departments of Agri- culture depend on the co-operation of farmers in filling out and'return- ing the questionaires. A widespread response from all types of farmers throughout each Province is needed in order to obtain a fully representa- tive sample. The statistics obtained are used ex- tensively throughout the year. The Dominion Bureau of Statistics is the official source of statistical informa- tion in Canada and its figures are used by 'Governments, Farm Organ- izations, and Industry to plan future. operations. International organiza- tions such as the World Food and Agriculture Organization depend on the Bureau to supply up-to-date fig- ures on Canada's agricultural Indus-' try. The farmer through his response to the questionnaire sent out has s real opportunity to help form a true picture of agricultural conditions, and it is in his own interest to do so. The survey has no connection with taxation. The farmer's individual form is seen only by workers in the Dominion and Provincial agricultural statistical offices. All individual forms are kept strictly confidential. The month of June is at hand and also the Cream Producers' campaign to raise money for advertising will get under way. It is to be hoped that everyone will contribute their share as it is being done to further the sale ok dairy products which should directly concern you the producer. The de- duction is one cent per pound of butterfat produced in the month of ,Tune. If you send in a can of cream that weighs 80 pounds and tests 35 you will be contributing about 28e to the campaign. -How much advertis- ing could yoti do for 28c? If every- one contributes their 28 cents worth it amounts to a sizeable sum that will permit those in charge of the camp- aign to make it pay off. On Thursday evening, Maw 25th, the Field Day committee met in God- erich with the Chamber of Com- merce Committee appointed to assist in the planning of ' Huron County Field Day for June 14th at iGoderich Agricultural Park. If the weather man will co-operate everyone will be in for a very enjoyable day of sports events and educational displays.
