Who Looks for Egg Markets?
Why Does The Price Fluctuate?
(By J. Carl Hemingway)
Egg prices seem to be on the 'es. Why the huge increase? Could
move again. First up, then down.
Why? It was forecast at the first
of the year that export* to the
U, S. would fall off and that egg
prices would be at the floor early
in the year and would continue
there for many months. They
told us that production would be
up and altogether the prospects
for eggs was not good.
A. short time ago the price start-
ed up and I believe was, for one
day last week, 46 cents for. A•
large. Then down to 39 cents and
now 40 cents.
In looking at the Poultry Pro-
ducts Market Report I find that
to date in 1958, we have exported
to Venezuela 113,596, thirty dozen
cases. To date in 1957, 9,220 cas-
we have had this market last
year? Will we have this market
next year? How many other coun-
tries would buy our .eggs? Who is
selling these eggs to Venezuela?
Who is 'or should be looking for
other markets?
It seems to me that the produc-
er has little or no information on
these questions.
I can't see any great incentive
for the trade to take on this type
of work. Price to the producer
hasvery little, if any, effect on
the profits to the trade so why
should they put time, effort and
for the benefit of the producer?
This is a field that the producer
will have to develop for himself.
To do this Poultry Producers will

From the Nobel Peace Prize citation speech, Oslo, December 10, 1957,
Now he is proving it again. Lester B. Pearson is ready with
a practical, all-out program to bring back employment and

present emergency with the Pearson Plan for immediate action.

have to strengthen their organiz-
ation to the point that they can
exert some control over marketing
and thereby get the information
on production and markets that
is so necessary to returning to the
farmer a reasonable price,
The Hog Producers Marketing
Agency is finding that the inform-
ation they are able to get through
their organization is their greatest
strength in bargaining for a sat-
isfactory price for the producer,
Let's hope that Poultry Producers
will soon be able to get the facts.
Nearly 250 Persons
Lit Farm Clinic
Close to 250 people attended
the farm clinic in the Community
Centre, Zurich, en Friday night..
Themeeting, which was sponsored'
by F. C. Kalbfleisch and Son, dealt
with the subject of pole barns
and open end ,buildings.
The special speaker for the eve-
ning was Mr. "Hank" Belman, the
agricultural engineer for Huron,
Bruce and Grey counties. He talk-
ed about the advantages of pole
barns, and told of how the south-
ern part of Ontario is switching
to this new style barn. This type
of construction is much more ec-
onomical, and also keeps away
from overheating in the stables,
which causes much sickness in
farm stock. He spoke of the
need for insulation and ventilation
in barns today. He also, explained
how the long slopes on pole barns
should face south.
Other speakers were Douglas H.
Miles, agricultural representative
for Huron County and I. G. God-
dard, from Canada Creosoting Co.;
the company which supplies the.
treated cedar poles far these barns,
Mr. Kalbfleise.h showed interest-
ing films on various types of barn
constructions, after which an open
discussion of questions and an-
swers
nswers took place.
A lucky draw for a cedar chest
was won by Carl Willert, Zurich.
The staff of the Kalbfleisch Mills
served coffee and do -nuts to every-
one present.
In the very near future the firm
of F. C. Kalbfleisch and Son is
planning on going into the con-
struction of these new pole barns,
and will be qualified to answer
all the farntrs' problems in con-
nection with farm stabling.
Paper Collection.
Friday Afternoon
By !.;oy Scouts
Last Saturday afternoon the
Zurich Boy Scouts held a paper
drive and collected about two tons.
However, they were not able to
get around to every house, and so
they are again going out this
Friday afternoon, at four o'clock.
If you have old newspapers or
magazines, just tie them in a bun-
dle and set them in front of your
home. The Scouts are a very
worthwhile organization, so give
them a boost by having your pap-
ers ready for them.
