When you hump up your back And get out on the track, And face every squall with a smile. Over Nature's broad face There's a whole lot to trace, And each search makes you eager for more. Be it hill, be it vale, Every son of the trail Finds a joy that was hidden before.

With two out in the last inning, and two men on base with Zurich trailing 3-2, Ben came through with the drive that scored both the tieing and winning runs. Support Your Hog Marketing Plan Vote "YES" For Your Independence (By J. Carl Hemingway) A bus load of Huron. County farmers! took a bus trip to the Ontario Hog Producers' Offices and the United Co-operative Plant in Toronto on June 19. It was unfortunate that the bus wasn't quite filled as farmers should know more about the size and accomplishments of their organiza- tions. These farmers now have a much ing Yards. This story is appar- ently being circulated to confuse the farmer who hasn't time to get the right information. We have been told by the chair- man of the Farm Products Mark- eting Board that the question on the ballot walll be "Are you in: favour of the present Ontario, Hog Producers Marketing Plan?"' The present Ontario Hog Pro- ducers Marketing Plan gives the details of organization, by which there can be direct producer con- trolled marketing. As far as the marketing yards are concerned that is only one method under the plain and if you do not approve you can indicate the change in method at the next annual meet- ing of your iorgamization. If you vote "NO" on July 25 you are really saying that you do not want to have any part in controlling the sale of your pro- dulct. You are saying that farm- ers haven't the ability and should - art have the might to market the results of their labour. If you vote "YES" you are say- ing that producers have the abili- ty and should have the right to sell their product in whatever manner 'a large majority choose. The fanners who went to Toronto June 19 certainly know that their organizations have the ability and are doing, a remarkably good• job of marketing. Only one young lady so far has indicated that she would like to be a Dairy Princess and have the op- portunity of competing for a trip to Britain. Entries to be in by Judy 10 for the contest July 18 in conjunction with the Soil and Crop Improvement twilight meet- ing. Did you know Quebec tobacco growers voted 95 percent in fav- our of a marketing .plan like the one in Ontario? better understanding of the pro.- blern of selling some 35,000 hogs a week and the work necessary to keep the daily record of sales to the differenrt packers. At the U.C.O. !offices we again saw the efficient manner in which farmers can conduct their bus- iness. While most businesses are thinking of recession United Co - Operatives have increased their volume by $5,000,000 in 1958. There has been a story going the rounds that this coming Hog Vote is on the matter of Market - Ontario Government Departments Urge Children To Use Safety Rules During the summer holidays Ontario children will be able to put into effect the safety rules they learned in school and have fun while doing it. The Ontario Department of Transport, in co-operation with the Department of Education, is providing a Safety Game to all elementary schoolchildren of the province which will enable the youngsters to keep their traffic safety score for one month. The game also provides a list of 10 safety rules and a daily score card. Pupils will keep their safety score and when they return to school in the Fall they will bring their completed card with them. They will then be eligible for a More Hogs Sent To Market This Year A. substantial increase in the number of hogs marketed across the country over the same period a year ago is shown in Canada Department of Agriculture figur- es. Gradings for the past seven weeks averaged a little over 114,- 000, about 10,000 more per week than for the same time in 1957, Ralph, K. -Bennett, head of mer- chandising section, livestock pro- ducts, Marketing Service, pointed special safety award. Hon. M. B. Dymond, Minister of Transport, said the provincial pur- pose of the Safety Game was to keep the children interested in safety while they were away from the supervision of their teachers-. "The parents must carry most of the responsibility for child safe- ty during the vacation months," Dr. Dymond said. " We hope that every parent will encourage their children to play the Safety Game." Dr. Dymond said the Safety Game was the first step in a pro- vince -wide campaign for child safety during September. He add- ed that the Highway Safety Bran- ch of his department was already planning the month long safety campaign and was receiving the supp:ort of many proxninient groups and !associations. The Department of Transport expects to distribute some 780,000 copies of the Safety Game to On- tario schoolchildren through an estimated 4,000 elementary sch- ools. out. This is an increase of about 11 percent. At the same time prices have been higher,. averaging about 33 cents at Toronto for the seven weeks, compared to about 301/2 cents a year ago. At the present time, Mr. Ben- nett said, hog prices are largely determined by the balance be- tween the runs and the domestic demand because price levels in this .country are above the equ- ivalent of the United States price.
