Seaforth Man
On MV Authority
Development of conservation
areas acquired by the expanded
Maitland Valley Authority are
likely to mark the major under-
takings this year, it was indi-
cated when executive members
set a tentative ,budget of
$18,000.
Nelson-C.'.Cardno, Seaforth
councillor, was named to the
public 'relations committee of
the ..:autho fy at the. meeting'
'l=aid in Listowel. -
Half of the $18,000 will be
assessed against the 29 member
municipalities of the Maitland -
Authority, which stretches from
Arthur Township to Goderich
oh Lake Hurgn and covers an
area of almost 1,000 square
miles. Other 50 per cent will
be provided through= grants
from the Ontario government.
Referring to the 1962 pro-
gram, Chairman Harold Cozens
of Wallace Township, said
that besides development of
conservation areas, there would
likely be a move to enlarge the
authority forest, promotion of
farm pond construction and
concentrated• activity by the
public relations advisory board
to acquaint persons with the
program in the three branches
of the Maitland which have.
been recently brought into the
authority.

production wa61 high."
Two 'information i meetings
had been held and the execu-
tive is working on plans for
some type of bursary for stu-
dents in the area attending
Ridgetown Agricultural College,
whose parents are selling milk
to 'the Blyth plant. -
Sydney Pearson, vice-presi-
dent of the Ontario Concentrat-
ed Milk Producers, stated: "The
category .for milk . has been
quite well maintained and we
are trying to get a stabilization
program, suitable to both On-
tario and Quebec, as these 'two
provinces produce 75 per cent
of our milk products. •
William. Chapman, a member
of the executive 'of the Ontario
Milk. Producers Board, report-
ed: "They had spent a day and
a half considering resolutions
and cannot see that a satisfac-
tory milk marketing plan will
come into effect in the' near fu-
ture."
Fieldman Kenneth Carey, of
Thamesford, reported: "Tests
were higher in the Blyth plant
this year," and asked, for confi-
dence, giving the assurance:
"We are doing our very best
and are all working from 'a
good relations platform."
.Since 1922, our Canadian
Junior Red Cross has provided
medical treatnieht and care for
more than 74;600 handicapped
and crippled children in Can-
ada.
Carl Hemingway, Agriculture
Federation fieldman, stated:
"Some of these things are dis-
turbing and you are apt to
come 'to a fictitious conclusion,.
that there;, is conflict between
marketing boards and co-ops.
4s for becoming a large co-op,
certainly there should be co-
ordination, but whether a whole
combined unit would be feas-
ible is questionable."
Henry Seiling, local Heldman,
had set up an attractive display
of UDPG. products. He stressed
the necessity of absolute clean-
liness to obtain high tests.
Dave Ireland reported on the
Concentrated Milk Producers'
convention, held recently in
Hamilton.
Kenneth Carey presided for
the election of -the fallowing of-
ficers and directors: President,
Boyd Taylor, RR 3, Walton;
vice-president, Martin Baan,
Walton; directors: Dave Ire-
land, Teeswater; George Powell,
RR 1, Auburn; Donald Greid-
anus, RR 1, Lorldesboro; Clar-
ence Shaw, Hanover; Ted East,
Auburn ilarold Er , Zurich.
Hugh Cleland, cheesemaker
at Blyth plant, stated: "Better
milk makes better cheese, but
if it is ever necessary to use
penicillan for your milking
cows, please do not bring your
milk to the 'plant' as it takes
onlya minute amount of the
drug to destroy a whole vat of
milk for cheese."
Martin Baan, UDPC chairman,
took a very philosophic view,
reminding the milk producers
present, "we are living in a
changing age. We stew and wor-
ry too much over things that
never come to pass—and if they
do, they usually iron them-
selves out. Patrons in general
are satisfied with prices paid
at Blyth UDPC plant."
Bruce McCutcheen, a Dun-
dalk area farmer and vice-presi-
dent of UDPC, was the • guest
speaker. He stated, in part:
"The only thing we are sure of
in the milk industry today is
confusion. There should be a
good public relationship be-
tween a - milk marketing board
and+ Co-ops. We have come up
with some new ideas and dis-
carded some of the old ones..
"This year, if we could have
moved the surpluses and have
an all-over marketing plan, we
could have saved the farmers
millions of dollars. Co-ops are
not new in Ontario and farmers
should realize they own their
Co-op and have a member loy-
alty. Co-ops are built on mem-
berships, and marketing boards
on legislation, but they must
work harmoniously together."
.Mr. McCutcheon's address
sparked a spirited discussion,
and in replying to the address,
Sydney Pearson questioned the
wisdom of having so many co-
ops. "Why not try to combine
and have one large, strong co-
op?" he asked. ,,This was refut-
ed by Mr. McCutcheon, stating:
"If Canadian farmers cannot
get together, how could you get
co-ops to combine?" (Mr. Pear-
son and Mr. McCutcheon are
both farmers ' on a large scale
and should know.)
