Wishes Everyone
Merry Christmas
(By J. Carl Hemingway)
May I wish all of you a vtey
happy Christmas. This is the
season of good will. May it be
present in our homes and commtm-
ities not only at this time of year
but throughout the months to
come.
I have -had the fortunate oppor-
tunity of visiting the new locat-
ion of the Ontario Hog Producers
Association and the Hog Produc-
ers Marketing Co-Op. This is
located at 4198 Duridas Street
West, Toronto.
It was a...revelation to me to get
some insight into the size of the
business carried on and the effic-
iency of the selling agency,,I
think it was the busiest and mst
effieient office I ever visited. I'm
sure you would enjoy seeing it in
operation. If anyone would care
to gather up a load, let them
lenovrin advance and the staff will
arrange to show •you around,
I was most interested in watch-
ing the teletype machines in oper-
ation. In the five or so minutes
I stood looking at it three truck
load* of hogs arrived at the Kit-
chener Marketing ,Yard and were,
directed on to the plant.
Yes that's correct. I was stan-
ding in the office in Toronto. The
trucks arrived at Kitchener were
reported to• Toronto on the tele-
type, sold to the packer and dir-
ected to that packer, three separ-
ate loads, all in the space of less
than ten minutes.
I 'have heard some' complaints
from producers who didn't receive
their cheques back as quickly as
a they expected. One reason for this
is the fact that small packers can
'only have their hogs graded one
day a week. In the case brought
tO my attention the trucker de-
livered 'the hogs to the yard and
was directed on to the plant.
However he didn't hand in the
Manifest until too late to have it
forwarded to the plant the same
day.' The hogs were killed and
graded but since the manifest had
not arrived the grading slip could-
n't be filled in by the grader, un-
til his visit the following week,
This' isa disadvantage in sel-
ling to the small plants who can-
not have a resident government
grader. But pIease!remember that
is is largely these small packers
who provide the competitive bid-
ding that keeps the price up for
your hog. I think we producers
can well afford to wait on the oc-
casional cheque.
OFU President
Remarks Upon
Ottawa Successes
(By Gordon Hill, President, .OFU)
When the. Interprovincial Farm
Union Council established an of-
fer in Ottawa last October, little
did, we realize- the important role
to be played. Representatives from
at least one of the Provincial
Farm Unions have been working
through this office, to present
farmers views to each member of
parliament.
Just how effective this cam-
paign had been was not evident
until the Minister of Agriculture,
the' Hon, Douglas Harkness intro-
duced to the House of Commons
a new Bill to support the price of
agriculture products,
When this bill was introduced,
not only members in opposition,
but also conservative backbench-
ers realized. that some of the
guarantees so' necessary to agri-
culture today were not included.
Ftill effect of the Farm Union
lobby, was felt. Private members
rose in their caucus and insisted
that farmers be given considera-
tion: more in line with promises.
made prior to June 10, Realizing
his position the Minister decided
some alterations Must be made.
On three separate occasions in the
past week IFUC representatives
were asked to his office for dis-
cussion. On the last occasion Mr.
Harkness especially asked that
Ontario Farmers Union present
their views.
Gordon. Hill, president of the
OFU and A. V. Cormack, henor-
ary presidept, representing Ontare
ie Farm Union members, discus-
se'd the bill with Mr. Harkness in
his office and later with over 30
members of tbe Conservative Ag-
riculture Cortimittee, The follow-
ing day four proposed amend-
ments were read. in the House 'of
Commone,, and it was announced
others would be made later, The
most significant of these are: the
proposed Advisory Board is to be
composed entirely of farmers, ,and
cost of Production to be consider-
ed when settingprice supports.
In its amended fete% this bill
Will have more appeal to farmers-
but still does not guarantee far,
mots a fair price cost relationship.
A great deal of credit must be
given, to PC back benders- who
with the support of the Parm..
'Unions have caused these .changes
to be made, Mere changes mat
be made before agriculture 'wilt
receive a fair share of the nation.
