Visits Cottages Regardless of snow -filled roads successful attempts were made by motorists last Sunday to reach their cottages at Dueharrne's sum- mer resort. It took considerable shoving at the highway, and al- though the road leading to the lake was heavy they managed to reach their destination. The probable objective of their trip was to see if all was in order at the cottages.

Federation Fieldman Reports on Dairy Princess Contest and Poultry Meeting (By J. Carl On February 2, the Dairy Co- Ordinating Board met in the Agri- cultural Office Board Rooms to lay plays for the Dairy Princess Con- test to be held this summer. George Watt was eletced chairman of the board and Carl Hemingway, sec- retary -treasurer. This contest has proved quite popular and we are hoping that even more will par- ticipate. Prizes have been arran- ged for the first ten placings, and in order that the participants may receive some coaching, entries are requested by May 1. First prize is a free trip to compete at the CNE. The Ontario Poultry Producers meeting held in Toronto, Friday last, was not as well attended as was hoped. Bad driving conditions kept many of the north western producers at home, However the plan was thoroughly discussed and dates for county meetings early in March were arranged, Under section nine of the Farm Products Marketing Act the On- tario Poultry Produecrs can have a deduction made on eggs at the egg grading station and on poultry at the killing plants. With the money so raised a portion will be used to finance the Ontario Organ- ization and a portion will go to the county organization. By far the largest portion will be used to promote the better handling of eggs—at the farm— at the wholesale—at the retail levels. There are few products that deteriorate as rapidly or have such a discouraging affect on con- sumption as a low quality egg. It is hoped that an advertising campaign will stimulate the sale of eggs. A similar promotion of cheese has increased domestic con- sumption by 20 perecnt. A research program will be car- ried on in the field of pricing and marketing. The Department of Agriculture has intimated that the quotations of daily poultry and egg prices are far from satisfact- ory and has expressed the hope that the Ontario Poultry Produc- ers will be able to assist in this field. There was some opposition ex- pressed by some particularly large producers because of the compar- atively large amounts that would be collected from them on a pro- duction basis. However, they did- n't seem to realize that the bene - There Will Be DANCING Every Friday Night At The Old Forge Bayfield 10.00 -- 1.30 Musk By Grant.

Also some felt that a promotion plan would not help the large pro- ducer who has been able to arran- ge a special market. Here again they failed to realize that they must dispose of their surplus pro- duction and it is the market price established on this surplus that determines the price on their spec- ial market. In order that all producers may be fully informed a meeting of all township poultry producers will be held in the Agricultural Board Rooms, Clinton, Friday, February 13, at 8.30 p.m. Mr. and Mrs, Heinz Benedictus, Sarnia, and Mr. and Mrs, Amos Gingerich, spent Saturday evening with Mr. and Mrs, Seth Amanns, in Zurich: Sunday guests with Mr, and Mrs. Amos Gingerich were Mr: and Mrs. Heinz Benedictus, Sarn- ia; Mr. and Mrs, Kenneth Ginger - lite , and girls, and Mr. and Mrs, William Steckle, Miss Laureen Oesch has return- ed home after spending a week with her sister, Mrs. Lloyd Guen- ther, in Dashwood.
