Forum met at the hone of Mr.

the broadcast. The subject "Who
Writes the •Coniract?" None of
those :present were working un-
der contract, but many farmers
not lar diabant have contracts
for producing. hogs, b to fi l e r s,
beans, ,barley, hens and turkeys.
It has caused a 'surplus and low-
er prices 'but eontraot farming
has. created a better market and
better prices for the individual
farmer raising little pigs. It has
given the young man with little
money and little credit an oppor-
tunity to get started in farming.

lit was recommended that ,the

rectify the inequalities of 'freight

Tlie Dairy ,Co-Ordinating Board
Baia was submitted by Lorne
Rodges with ,Simon •He:Mahan
coni,nlen'ttn'g on butter and Geo.
Watt on cheese. The disposal of.
skim: milk powder seemed to be.
the biggest Dairy problem and ,it
was felt thtit the Federal govern-
ment through co-operation w'3Eh
U.N.I.0 I7.F. and CARL] could do
much to correct this diffiou ty.
With the need for larger quanti-
ties ,of cheese ,9.hesurpius.ddffictil-
1y in powder would be consider-
ably reduced.
In the case of butter it was
felt that 'since the 58e ;floor on
butter Yat proved too low to cre-
ate enough production to meet
tate demand it was recommended
that the support 1lrice Tremain at
64e, However since this floor
price apparently raised the retail
Prim to the point where the con-
sunptdon wes reduced it wa's re-
commended that Canada copy the
system, of Britain and many
European countries, of a consum-
er subsidy 34 reduce the retail
price of this good food. It was
suggested that this consumer
subsidy ,be 5c per 1b.
.The recommendations of the
Hog Producers, .presented by Ross
Love, Vice Pres. in absence of
Pres. Bert Lobb who also was un-
able to attend due to a recent
fall, was short and to the point.
A vote Was held last Surly which
required ,that 66 2/3% of .Hoose
voting must favour the Plan.
Over +68%n voted in favour. The
Hog Producers therefore urge
that the Government uphold the
legislation and refuse to tolerate
the ,obstructionist ,tactics of the
opposition..
Russell Bolton, Zone Director
of the 'Wheat Producers, reported
that the Wheat producers are do-
ing a good job of disposing of
their wheat. However he pointed
out that–soft winter wheat clan
be shipped from Alberta to Pet-
erboro for 'less freight then
wheat from -Chatham to Peter -
boyo. This seems to be discrim-
ination against the Ontario grow-
er and the .Canadian Government
is requested to make these rates
more equitable. This also applies
to shipments of United States
wheat.
While we do not favor trade
restnietions it does seem unfair
that Ontario wheat growers
should have to compete against
freight rates .in the U.S.
'Robt. McGregor, President of
the County Beef producers, felt
that the price of beef is high
enough. Higher prices could re-
duce consumption and this would
be ,difficult to regain. Mr. Mc-
Gregor expressed regret that the
promotion plan for 'beef which
was aPPr:owed at the last annual
meeting and apparently approv-
ed by the Farm Produots .Market-
ing Board, has not yet ,become
effective. Ft was recommended
that the Ontario Government en-
deavour .to clear up the obstruct-
ing technicalities -with all possi-
ble speed.
Carl Hemingway reported on
the Poultry Industry in the ab-
sence of Bob McKinley, chair-
man of the County Poultry Com-
mittee. The very few price of
fowl and ,the wide fluctuations
in egg prices indicate the need
for a strong poultry, organiza-
tion. It is also reported that the
market price for capons Is 26c
but not buyers. This is 511 unrea-
sonable 'situation, Either the
price is too 'high or ,the trade •ie
faliling to put the product ,before
the consumer. Capons make excel-
lent eating and the consumer will
buy .if given the opportunity at
the Tight picks.
The Ontario Poultry Executive
have finally received approval,
from the Farm Products ,Market-
ing Board, of the method by
which an active Poultry Promo-
tion plan can he put into oiler•
a,tion. Meetings for poultry Pro-
ducers will be held throughout
the counties at which informa-
tion will be given out, a vote
taken and result's recorded.
If there is a good attendance
and a large majority favour the
plan it will be put into effect.
If the attendance is small and
not favourably accepted we can
forget It all and let egg prequel
tion fall into the same position
as the broiler industry.
