Rebekohs Mrs. Aldeen Volland, Noble Grand of the Amber Rebekah Lodge, was assisted by Vice Grand Mrs. Margaret Consitt for their meeting recently when the charter of the Lodge was draped in memory of the late Sister Maude Redden. Balloting for candidates was followed by reports of the visit- ing committee and officers' reports. Arrangements were made to attend the banquet and meeting at the Goderich Rebekah Lodge on November G, in honor of Assembly President Mrs. Margaret Duckworth. Plans were made to invite Atwood and Ivionkton Rebekah Lodges, November 21, with arrangements for a penny sale , FU end cPtiacal of policy The president of the National Farmers Union, Roy Atkinson, says the announcement by the Federal Government of its mon- itored feed grains prices form- ally sounds the death knell of the Canadian Wheat Board orderly marketing role in the pricing of grains sold for feed on the domestic market. "All grain producers, " he said "are forced to accept dom- estic feed grain prices establish- ed by open market, off -board buyers in the prairie region. The role of the Canadian Wheat Board in domestic feed grain marketing has been reduced to the administrative donkey work, also the change in pricing pol- icy would also have a serious impact in depressing the prices for grain in areas outside the Canadian Wheat Board region. Commenting on the specific levels of the monitored feed grain prices, the NFU president noted that western grain produc- ers would suffer immediately declines in the prices of oats and barley sold by the C. W,B. into eastern and B.C. markets. This could in turn have a dep- ressing effect on future announce merits of expected final pay- ments on these grains by the "It has a squeeze play effect which forces offering prices down as expected final payments decline, " he charged. He said the relatively high monitored price for wheat in reality made it uncompetitively in eastern and B.C. feed grain markets at this time, a circumstance dictated by present export prices. "Under the circumstances it is predictable that the prairie feed mill offering price for wheat will decline in the cominF weeks on the pretext that wheat is uncompetitive with U.S. corn. With the possibility of a considerable volume of out- of - condition grain in many areas this fall and congested elevator conditions, farmers will be ripe for exploitation. It is sign- ificant, " he concluded, " that the APB has not offered to buy feed <<-heat up to this point un- doubtedly reflecting its attitude that the midway price between initial and final payments is too high a level to set the floor since it would be well above rhe present monitored feed still price." r 111i� ^Ii "A )Mu laJfl' ills:' l`^hnglu' �'' ! ,5 , l{,}i .. Chlorinate water Water in the village of Zur- ich will be chlorinated in the near future, following a decision reached by the hydro and water committee of the council last week. The tender of Wallace and Tiesrnan for the installation of chlorination equipment was accepted, at a price of $770. A recommendation was made to the village some time ago by the Ontario Water Resources Commission that there should be chlorine in the water supply. Surveys indicated there was too much iron content in the local water. At the same meeting the corn- mittee agreed that every new home built in the village should have an underground electric service installed. If the new home is to be all -electric (which includes heating), the costs of the service will be borne by the hydro system, while in all other cases the costs will be based on a rate of $1 per foot from the property line. The committee also decided to recommend to any sub -divis- ion that an underground distrib- ution system be installed in any new sub -divisions. A cost-shar- -ing agreement would be worked out in such cases. 14 OZ EI Z SP HEINZ 14 OZ DLE 1-IEINZ 14 OZ EANS 38 OZ FREE TONGS DEAL CRISCO OIL SUN -UP 3 1/2 OZ PKG ORANGE C 1 4 OZ 1 LB BAG SQUIRREL 2 LB TOILET BOWL CLEANER 20 OZ LS11 e NEILSON'S PACK OF 20 / TOO BARS BUNDLE BARS VAN KIRK 12 OZ CHOCOLATE BAKING ''` HIPITS WESTON'S CHELSEBUNS PREPRICED 55¢ 1 SPECIAL 2/ r in SWEET PICKLED otta CENTRE LOIN Roil STORE- SLICED MAC CHEESE SI,TCED CUT, WRAPPED and FROZEN LB LB LB LB rrt PRODUCE De monte Brand Ban U.S., SIZE 1p0's New Crop Tangelos U.S. NO 1 Look Brand Radishes LB nas LB 12 DOZ 69( 3/33 G OZ PKGS FROZEN FOODS BANQUET 8 OZ Mac & Chees C sserole / 1 PLEASE NOTE: We reserve the right to limit all quantities on all advertised items.
