COUNTY COUNCIL IN FINAL SESSION The Department of Highways is putting four rotary snow -plows in Western Ontario, Dr. 1t. H. Taylor, M.P.P., informed Huron County Council on Wednesday afternoon. Besides these, extra large cater- pillar plows will be available in Huron County, according to word he had received from the department. This heavy equipment will be moved in where the snow is heaviest, and left there provided' there is a heated garage. Resolutions are good for govern- ments, he asserted, as they give an over-all picture of.the wishes of the communities. He said he was per- turbed at the general trend toward centralization of power. Government closest to the people is best, said the Many reeves were of the opinion that the committee was qualified to make the apointment. Members of the committee are R. Raiz, S. Sn- der, E. J. Parrish, Cecil Johnston, and George Mathieson, Reeve George Armstrong of Hay launched the debate'by requesting that the committee, which had done good' work, be given an opportunity to find a qualified man and employ him. Reeve Rate pointed out the im- portance of employing a fully quali- fied assessor. If the county •expects a report from an assessor in 1950, ed on or the way things suite individual. Convenors of standing committees must work all year on their particu- lar committee. Do: not get up a pro- gram for one meeting then forget all about it for the rest of ,the year. The pres. may call on the convenors at any or all meetings for something pertinent to their- subject. Take an interest in your \work and come to each meeting with something worth while to passe on to others. The secretary's work entails a great deal of thinking and plain hard work. Every member should co-operate with her. The pres, also has to be able to give a resume of the year's work and needs every W. I. member's aid. The records in the minute book should contain actual facts and every motion whether carried or not. They should contain special rulings and branch' by-laws for reference. Fin- ancial statements and al) records are. available for any paid member to look over at any time deemed necessary. When an office changes hands, all records, papers etc., must be turned over to the successor immediately and the former officer has no more to do with that office or business. All bills roost be brought before the members to be passed before be- ing paid and they should be :paid by cheque. The secretary is not on every committee by authority of her office. In conducting discussions, remem- ber the rules of democracy. Each member should be given an oppor- tunity to express their views on any discussion. They are'not to be mon- opolized by one person or a few. The pres.• should call on those who are not willing to express themselves voluntarily. This gets an exchange of ideas and suggestions. A topic should not be dropped or voted on until every phase has been discussed pro and con. Mrs. Duke gave a num- ber of ways of conducting discus- sion. These include panel discus- sions, synposiums and groups. The president's chair should never be left vacant. When the pres. wishes to make a suggestion she must take her place as a member and the vice- pres. occupies the chair. However the pres, must not take sides. She can express her opinions and com- mon sense should rule in all deci- sions. Praise and encouragement will get more from anyone than driving and force. Any suggestions that members have should be stated at the meeting, not before or after. If they are worth considering they are worth telling all members together. Mrs. Duke believes racial religious prejudice is the root of all the un- rest today..These prejudices spring from ignorance. When a committee has been named and have done their best to fulfill their duties, criticism is not called for. If such arises, put the critics to work the next time and see how efficiently they take over, Everyone- should appreciate the ef- forts of others but do your best when given the opportunity to do it Your way, Only one time is a member sup- posed to.speak on any motion etc. and then only for a minute or two and permission must be asked of the pres. for that time. and recogni- tion. The business Dart of a meeting should be 20 minutes. Time is money, . spend it intelligently. The ladies brought a pot luck dinner for the noon hour.

COUNTY FEDERATION HAS • Talk of farmers' strikes, and of a mass march on Ottawa, was heard at the annual meeting of the Huron Federation of Agriculture, held at Clinton, during open discussion of the current upswing in feed grain prices. Moderate counsels prevailed, however, and the meeting finally was unanimous in endorsing a reso- lution that the Dominion Govern- ment be asked to put coarse grain prices under control, and to renego- tiate contracts for sale of farm pro- ducts overseas. "I should like to appeal to you to hold down for a while - not to get too drastic," said W. R. Lobb, Clin- ton, who was elected president of the Huron Federation. "Let us con- duct our business with pride and dignity." Pressure from farm organizations in other provinces for organization of a mass delegation of protesting farmers to go to Ottawa is becom- ing very great, Arthur Stewart, Al- monte, president of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture, said in an address. It may become difficult, he said, for the Ontario Federation to resist the urging of farm bodies elsewhere in Canada for a national protest trek to Ottawa, "We're not showing enough strength, even yet," said Wilfred Glazier, Clinton hatcheryman, dur- ing open discussion of the resolution to ask the Dominion Government for action. "I think it's time weook a little more action," said Mr. (lazier. "It seems there are only two things the federal Government will listen to, - one is the ballot and the other is the strike." "What's the good of our resolu- tion," one farmer at the meeting shouted, "if the 'Government is go- ing to let the strikers run the country7" The feed grain shortage in Sep- tember and October of this year was not the fault of the western farmer who produced the grain, de- clared Charles Coultes, Belgrave, who was elected 1st vice-president of the Federation. "I feel the Government made a drastic' error in this matter," pro- vincial president Stewart agreed. "It was the most untimely thing were lots of other things they could have played with for a while, and left this alone," The action of the Government.in lifting the lid from feed grain prices, Mr: Sewart said, " was a set- back to mutual confidence. Ap- parently very little consideration was given to the rights and interests of farm people, - which has re- sulted in very heavy loss to live- stock producers." • Western grain -growers do not want, to see Ontario livestock farm- ers put out of business by high prices for feed grain, Me. Stewart declared. On a recent trip to West- ern Canada, he said, he found that Manitoba farm organizations were "definitely not in favor of having controls removed from coarse grains;" Saskatchewan farmers were almost solidly in favor of holding the ceilings on eoarse grain prices; officers of the Alberta Federation of Agriculture to whops he talked said they felt that anything done to in- jure the eastern livestock producers would eventually react against the western grain -growers. Officers elected were: Past Pres,, BIG ANNUAL MEETING in on, resr en ; lar es •Coultes, Belgrave, 1st vice presid, ent; R. S. McKercher, McKillop, 2nd vice-president; Victor Roy, Londes- boro, secretary -treasurer. Two Member's of Parliament who attended the meeting undertook to present to the Government any re- solutions forwarded Iby the Huron Federation, "The whole problem of controls," said William H. Golding, Seaforth, M.P. for Huron -Perth, ' rias been a vexed question from the time they were started." The government is subject, he said, to strong pressures both for and .against. It had been in- tended by the Government, he told the meeting, to lift .coarse grain con- trols at .the end of July, but the lifting was deferred because of the packinghouse workers' strike. "The Federation of Agriculture is the best organization the farmers have ever had," said L. E. Cardiff, R.R. 4,' Brussels, M.P. for Huron North. "The farmers are being forc- ed out of production," he said, "at the very time when production is needed. My advice to those of you who can afford it is: hold your breeding stock if you can. It will be valuable. This situation will be cor- rected." The provincial hog producers' organization, Mr, Coultes reported, has, this year ironed out difficulties with truckers who refused to take out licences, under the hog market- ing regulations, to carry hogs to market. The truckers argued, .he said, that if they had public com- mercial vehicle licences, they did not need any other licence to carry hogs. The regulations have now been clari- fied, Mr. Coultes said, so that truck- ers can be compelled to take out licences either as buyers, processors, or producers, before they can legally handle hogs. The negotiating committee of the hog producers'' organization, said Mr. Coultes, was responsible, during the packinghouse workers' strike, for getting an agreement from the packers to put a $23 -a -cwt. floor under hog prices when the strike ended, and so avert a collapse of the market when a pent-up flood of livestock came on the market at strike's end. The organization is now working, said Mr. Coultes, to get a bett deal for farmers on transit insur- ance rates on hogs going to market. It has been found, he said, that at the existing rates only 25 cents is paid out in claims for every dollar paid in premiums. The co-operative medical plan sponsored by the Huron Federation of Agriculture now covers 607 adults and 475 children in the coun- ty, Bert Irwin, Hullett, stated in his report. The plan was put into effect, he recalled, on Aug. 1, this year, Since then the groups that have joined up include 13 school sections, five farm forums, one farmers' co- operative, three. Women's Institutes, and two church groups. Amounts paid in fees now total 54,343, and 5136.10 has already been paid out in claims. HENSALL Rev. P. A.
