Again according to the latest figures available from. the Dept. of Agri. for Ontario. The price of feed grain climb- ed steadily from 1942 until 1951 and then began a steady decline to 1959 with a very slight in- crease in 1960. In over 20 years of farming my most prosperous year, by far, was 1951 when the average price. for oats was 01.5 and barley was 1.37. For many years I have become more and more firmly convinced that the prosperity of the real farmer is directly dependent on the comparative value, in our economy, of what his land pro- duces. It is my earnest hope that our farm organizations will keep this in mind and act accordingly. FEDERATION NEWS When a stray dog is shot it hardly rates the headlines but when this particular stray dog showed many of the symptoms of rabies it becomes an altogether different matter. Such a dog appeared in the Brussels area. The dog was shot, the Health of Animals Branch was notified immediately but they advised the farmer to simply bury the dog since none of his family or livestock were nown to have come in conta ith the animal.

FEDERATION NEWS By J. C. Hemingway Last week I reported the re- commendations given by "Agri- cultural experts" to O.F.A. which were to the effect that something must be done to prevent a rise in the price of feed grains. In the July 26th issue of the Winnipeg Free Press the meeting of the Farm Union also express- ed concern over the sudden in- crease in feed grain prices. I quote "Mr, Mel Tebbutt, O.F, U. President, said the inflated price was making it impossible for Ontario Feeders to feed West- ern feed grains". I would ask the question "Who is being prevented from feeding this grain"? Certainly a $10.00 increase per ton is not going to keep the "grass-roots" family farmer from purchasing the odd ton of grain to tide him over until harvest, te mostab erom fromihe dept. ofgures Agr, 78,7%, of the grain fed in Ontario is grown in Ontario.
