Price Supports For Hog Producers
(By J. Carl Hemingway)
Just a reminder that the Dairy
Princess Contest is only a short
time away so get your entries in.
There is a trip to Britain for the
Ontario winner.
The decision of the Ontario Hog
Producers to request the continua-
tion of a price support policyra-
ther than a deficiency payment
plan may have come as a shock
to some farmers. In turning to a
deficiency payment plan Agricul-

On June 11th approximately 15,000 polling places
In Ontario will be ready to receive your vote.
'They will remain open from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m.
(Standard Time) and from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. (Day-
iight Tiine).
Time -tested election machinery will assure every
voter the free, full and impartial exercise of this
ancient and honourable privilege of democratic
citizenship.
HOW you vote is YOUR business, but it is also
important to your family, friends and neighbours
that you DO vote.
Your vote means many things.
It expresses your judgment on the issues put
forward by the various parties during the election
campaign.
It gives your opinion about the Candidates who
have placed their names before you.
Juni 11th
isYOU' day. � .
It states your decision about the future progress
of our Province and the men who will guide its
destiny in the years immediately ahead.
In these last few weeks you have had many
opportunities to assess the policies and platforms
of the principal parties. You have been given a
complete and comprehensive accounting of the
stewardship of your affairs by our Progressive
Conservative administration. We believe the
record ha'sbeen one of good stewardship, wise
management, and sound planning for the future.
The purpose of this brief message is to suggest
respectfully that the safest, surest and most
forward-looking decision that you can make on
June 11th is to give your vote for the Candidate
who represents the Progressive Conservative Party
and the government whose policies have been so
largely responsible for Ontario's spectacular pro-
gress in the last ten years.

ture Minister Harkness was ap-
parently determined to prevent
the vertical integration of farm
production.
This may not be as necessary
as was thought. From the rumors
coming my way it would seem
that some feed companies are be-
ginning to find that the feeding
of hogs can be unprofitable and
certainly many farmers have found
that hog feeding on contract can
easily be financially dangerous.
However the real objection to
deficiency payment on hogs is the
fact that the United States would
have the right, and justly so, to
impose a duty on our pork exports
equal to any deficiency payment
received by our producers. Since
this payment to our producers is
to be based on a yearly average,
the United States would have to
guess at the first of the year what
our deficiency payment would be
at the end of the year. Their only
hope for adequate protection
would be sure to estimate high
enough. This could and probably
would mean that our export to
the U.S., which we have spent
years to build on a quality basis,
would be lost.
Deficiency payments seem to
work satisfactorily in Britain
where they wish to increase pro-
duction but where the product
has to go into export there seems
to be too many international com-
plications.

Domestic Animals
In Huron Area
Contacted Rabies
During the past few days a num-
ber of domestic animals in the
area have become infected with
rabies, laboratory examination has
disclosed, Dr. J. C. MacLennan,
of the health of animals branch,
said last Tuesday.
Dr. MacLennan said proven cas-
es included a horse at Kirkton, a
pig at Hensel', and two dogs at
Bayfield, as well as several foxes.
The fact that dogs have become
infected makes it particularly urg-
ent that parents encourage their
children to have no contact with
stray dogs or wild animals, Dr.
MacLennan warned.
