HURON FEDERATION NEWS
By CARL HEMINGWAY
On Friday, Sept. 29, a meet-
ing of cougty representatives of
the Poultry Producers was held
in Toronto. Mr. Kohler, of the
Hog Producers Marketing Ag-
ency, outlined the teletype auc-
tion method in the selling of
hogs which seems to be bring-
ing Ontario farmers satisfactory
prices as compared with Chica-
go and other Canadian mar-
kets.
A representative of Bell Tele-
phone showed in detail how
this method of sale could be
applied to eggs. With grain
prices increasing to the point
where large operators will have
to obtain higher prices for eggs
it might well be that the small-
er farm flock could again pro-
vide an attractive means of
marketing home grown grain.
The auction method of sale
could put the small egg -grader
and his patrons in the position
that they offer top quality eggs
in sufficient volume to obtain
prices equal to that received by
large producers who are cur-
rently being paid quantity
premiums. More information
will be available and I hope to
be able to get it out to you.
Beef producers, I hear, are
having difficulties in getting en-
forcement of the bill of lading
regulations. The Board of
Transport apparently doesn't
wish to enforce the regulation
which requires all transporters
to give a bill of lading when
anything is picked up for trans-
porting. It seems unreasonable
that a farmer is expected to
put his cattle on a truck for
shipment many miles without
even a receipt to show that the
cattle were ever loaded. There
have been a few cases where
real problems arose as a result
of traffic accidents or in case
of sudden death of a trucker
or drover. Ownership of the
cattle was expressly difficult to
establish.
K,powing this and enforcing
these regulations quite strict-
ly where other goods are trans-
ported, it seems strange that
there is hesitancy in requiring
transporters of cattle to obey
the law.
Just recently I have had bit-
ter complaints from a couple of
beef producers on the returns
for cattle sold on the dressed
weight basis. The question of
regulations was raised,
Is there any regulation stat-
ing where the front quarter is
divided from the hind quarter?
Carcasses are defatted, and
the dressed,,weight is taken af-
terward. Wtiat does this mean?
One prod(icer remarked that
he had heaaird that one proces-
sor was cutting the neck off at
the shoulder instead of at the
head. This could mean a dif-
ference of 10 or 15 pounds in
the dressed weight for which
the producer gets paid. Is there
any regulation governing this?

FALLOW
(By FAIRBAIRN)
We were amazed the other
day at an observation from a
couple of Ontario's -and Can-
ada's — best public relations
men. These are fellows with a
wide experience in the field of
communications -- good, solid
types who don't rely on gim-
micks or stunts to get their
message across. They don't
have to resort to tricks because
they recognize a real news
story when they see it. Their
observations were directed to
me because I've had the good
fortune to act as master of
ceremonies at the CNE for the
last two years.
They wanted to know why all
the people concerned in the
production and distribution of
milk and milk products didn't
get together and simply try to
sell milk? You couldn't have a
better product topublicize or a
better story to tell—they said.
Well, there's no argument on
that score but after literally
throwing our hands up in hor-
ror at their ignorance of all
the implications involved in
such a suggestion, we began to
wonder. You see, they weren't
aware of the differences of opin-
ion that exists between the
breeders of different kinds of
cows—of those between produc-
ers who sell their milk in dif-
ferent markets—of the differ-
ences of opinion between fluid
shippers and shippers of milk
for manufacturing purposes—
of differences between provinc-
es—or of the supicions that ex-
ist in the minds of producers
about distributors and proces-
sors and vice versa.
They were blissfully unaware
of all these things and they
went straight to the point and
we thought, "Perhaps those of
us closely concerned are so lost
in these complications that
we've lost sight of the only ob-
jective that will do any of us
any good." Selling more milk
is the only thing that will keep
the dairy industry going—sell-
ing the products of the farm at
a fair price is the only thing
that will maintain Canadian
'agriculture.
Is it possible that national
farm organizations, provincial
farm groups and even local
ones have become so embroiled
in the web of internal politics
that they have lost sight of the
ultimate goal? Is it possible
that the distributors and pro-
cessors of farm produce have
become so embroiled in the
vital business of making a pro-
fit that they have lost sight of
the same goal? It is not for us
to say but we do feel it's high
time for a little soul-searching
to try to find these answers. No
less, in this somewhat limited
field in Canada, than it is for
the peoples and governments of
the world in a much broader

HOLD OBER MEETINGS
The October meeting of the
council of Usborne Township
was held in the Township Hall,
Elirnville. The meeting was call-
ed to order at 1:30 p.m. by
Reeve Clayton Smith. 'Council-
lors Harold Hunter, George
Frayne, Ward Hern and Archie
Etherington were present. The
minutes of the last regular
meeting, held on Sept. 4, were
read and adopted on motion of
Hunter and Frayne.
Council studied correspond-
ence giving notice of the can-
cellation of the Parkhill Dam
hearing by the Ontario Munici-
pal Board and the reasons for
it. Moved by Etherington and
Hern, that Tile Drainage Loan
Application No. 28 for $3,000,
be accepted and forwarded to
the Ontario Treasury Depart-
ment for approval.
Hunter and Frayne: Thai By -
Law No. 12, 1981, confirming
the taxable assessment for the
corporation to be $2,734,900 for
19618 be considered to have the
requited readings and be now
finally passed.
Hern and Etterington: That
By -Law No. 13, 1961, the annual
levy by-law, providing for en-
tering all the 1981 rates in the
tax roll and the collection of
the taxes by Dec. 14, be con-
sidered to have the required
readings and be 'now finally
passed.
Road Superintendent W. J.
Routly reported road gravelling
in progress and preserted road
accounts amounting tc a total
voucher of $6,339.89 for pay-
ment. Frayne and Hem: That
the road superintendent's re-
port be accepted and the road
accounts paid.
Treasurer N. G. Cla•ke re-
ported receipts of $551.10 in
accounts receivable frim the
road superintendent anc other
receipts for the past mmth of
$518.53 and a balance cf cash
as of Sept. 29 of $133.93
Correspondence was regi and
dealt with as follows: RCAF
field—of survival.
That's what it amoans to,
literally, whether welt think-
ing about Canadian agrlcalture
or the_ world. Do we int to
revert to the so -calla Inv of
the jungle—the survival d the
attest (which really meant the
strongest) --or do we wait to
act like civilized humpy be-
ings? Of course, there mut be
some common bond of uider-
standing before we can ven
start discussions—but isn' it
there? Whether we're taLing
about national survival or'the
survival of Canadian agrtul-
ture. In the first instance, it's
the desire to live and in he
second, it's the desire to mke
a living.
In the international arena:o-
day, there is so much suspicn
—and justifiably—but is thce
that much justification for ss-
picion in the domestic field?It
does exist but our feeling is
that when the various grous
involved can sit down arounda
table and have it out—man o
man—most of the suspicion wl
dissolve like the fall fog on.a
sunny morning. Then we ca
get to work on something co-
crete, constructive—and to 1-
bor the point—lasting.

Smell Egg
Producers Are
hi Majority
Majority of the registered
egg producers in Canada are
small operators producing less
than 4,000 dozen grade A large
or extra large eggs each year.
A handful, or only 0.2 per cent
of the estimated 100,000 regis-
tered producers market more
than 40,000 dozen such eggs an-
nually.
According to figures compiled
by the Canada Department of
Agriculture's data processing
section, 93 per cent of all egg
producers in Canada are cov-
ered 100 per cent by the
agriculture stabilization. board
which provides for a deficiency
payment on all grade A large
eggs marketed up to a maxi-
mum of 4,000 dozen annually.
Other 7%
The other 7 per cent also are
covered by the board but only
up to the 4,000 dozen level.
The figures indicate that 66.5
per cent of the registered egg
producers produce 799 dozen or
less annually, or only 12.5 per
cent of Canada's total egg pro-
duction. On the other hand, 0.8
er cent of the Producers
market between 16,000-39,999
dozen eggs annually or 14.1 per
cent of the total egg produc-
tion.
Breakdown
A complete breakdown of
Canada's egg production in 1960
follows:
