They can be so •arranged that you can get most any answer you want. Mr. Hark - 11088, Minister of Agriculture nOlado .1'.A, a Annual nice eompameetinrtsong awhent theho gave the prices et butter in sever- al countries. From these figures he was able to =elude that Call: adieu cream producers warn got. ting the highest price in the world fol' their butter. Let's look at it another way. .Recently I was told that a Volkeswagon car selling for $1800 in Canada could be purchased in West Germany 'tor $1100. Related to the butter prices it would take 2812 lbs of butter to •purchase the ear in Canada but only 1762 lbs. of butter to purehase the same oar in West Germany. On this ba- sis Canadian butter is only worth 40c a lb, Wheat prices would also fair badly under similar comparison yet this produce is sold under a Government appointed Board. Un- der this arrangement a bushel of wheat will purchase less for the Canadian producer than any oth- er bushel of wheat in the world. In spite of these recognized tads our Ontario Government seems determined to impose the same type of selling agency for our Ontario Hogs in particular and paving the way for this method in all farm products. If Bill 86 is passed in its present form it will be possible for the Ontario Gov- ernment to take over any Produc- er Marketing Agency along with the total assets .of such agenoY and operate the selling Agency through a Government appointed Board. Let me record some of the things that have been happening recently. On Jan, llth the Fed- eral Government introduced De- ficiency payments tor hogs and the price dropped to $21.00. Took an unexpected lump to 925.00 and the Government released quanti- ties of storage pork; price drop- ped to 919.00, Definite interest in Western provinces in setting up Marketing program for hogs. On- tario Hog Producers report the feasibility of Producers Packing plant: Bill 86 introduced into On- tario Legislature. Is there any significance to this series of ev- ents or is it just a .coincidence? With the ;period Jan. through March for deficiency payments on eggs just about up we can make some observations. The pre- sent weighted average price for, eggs in Canada ,Grade AEL and AL is 21.8 as of March 11111. This is an increase of 2c over the prev- ious week. This will probably mean that there will be a much smaller Deficiency payment than was exlieeted. In elir own that, with a flock of about 275 hens we will probably end up with an aver- age price for the A large sizes of 35 or 36c. From this we might conclude that there will be e. little profit but from the production of 275 hens we certainly will not be able to buy many groceries. KIPPEN The WMS of Kippen United Church met for their March meet- ing in the schoolroom on Thurs- day March 4th with group 3 in charge. In the absence of the president, Mrs. Harry Caldwell Presided.
