Comments on; Farm Meeting Thursday evening last, a Farm- ers' Union meeting was held in the parish hall at St. Joseph's. The object was to bring about prices to the farmers on an equ- ity with the general trend of the country. • Guest speaker of the evening was Gordon Hill, Varna, president of the Ontario Farmers Union. He was introduced by Philip Dur- and, president of the local.

It should not be out of rule for the farmers to lodge their dem- ands with the proper authority for consideration before the whole state of affairs becomes so impair- ed that it could cause retardment of prosperity. Of course, we do not condemn any particular group or body for what is happening to -day. In gen- eral the whole trend is upset causing much uneasiness to all. As a whole you could a7a.11 it a balky spell of time; its duration no one can tell, before it can be .adjusted. But by some unknown process it will right itself and bring prosperity to all again. There is not any reason at pre- sent to dispair, for the standard of living in this country atpresent is far above par, has been in the past, is at the present, and hope it will be in the future. Co-oper- ation and sound understanding will be the key to bring prosperity in this fair land of ours. The elected officers at the a- bove meeting were Charles Rau, vice -.president; Philip Durand, pre- sident; Ted Geoffroi, secretary - treasurer. The local will call a meeting every first Monday of the month to discuss matters and re- ceive new members. 0 The human heart rests about eight -tenths of a second between each contraction. Over 300 Hogs At Clinton Yards With the going rate set at 28x4 cents last Tuesday, more' than 300 hogs were cleared through the hog assembly point set up here at the Community Sales Barn. This is the first time that the assem- bly point system has been used in Huron County. Prior to its be- ginnings, hogs had to go either to Harriston, or to Stratford, or London. R. E. Carpenter, on staff of the Ontario Hog Producers Co-opera- tive, was on hand to keep things running smoothly. Hogs were shipped to the large packers, White's, Schneider's, Burns and Canada Packers, with most of the animals coming through the Hen- sail Co-operative, although some arrived from Bayfield, Londesboro and the Clinton area. Officials of the marketing board; Director Wesley Magwood, Han- over; and Eldred Aiken, Alden - ford, chairman of the Hog Produc- ers Marketing Board, were prey- . ent. It has been expected that a tele- - type system would be used, but it was felt the expense was too great for a one -day a week as- sembly point, and temporarily a telephone will be used instead. This enables the sale of hogs FOB Clinton at the rate being accepted by the marketing board. THE TIME HAS COME To Subscribe to the ZURICH Citizens -NEWS This is the third FREE copy you have received.
