Phone HU 2-9219 10-tfb On March 17 the Ontario Federation of Agriculture CO- 'OPOrator'a Insurance Confer- ence was held in the King I.)01- ward Hotel, Toronto. Since its rfP,1111ati011 some 12 years ago the progress of this er- gainization 'has been erna.zing. In the PaSt five years it has almost doubled its ,auto- mobile policies, from 56,000 to 101,000 and its other lines policies from 2,000 to 17,000. Through the years your Comp- any has endeavoured success- fully to provide you with bet- ter .and .better protection at reasonable cost. At the same time it has been able to pay reasonable interest on all share capital, Suggestions for Improvement in providing the coverage you want are always welcome. It is your project in self-help. Let's make it even better. Co-operators Life Insurance, which was launched just over a year ago, reported outstand- ing success. Perhaps for the first time in history a Life In- surance Company has been able to pay dividends Ito policy- holders at the end of its first year of operation, With over $6 million Life Insurance in force at the end of 1960, we hope to make it over $13 million by the end of 1961. Since the press and radio and TV have done a good' job of bringing a report of the bus, iness 'activities of the recent Hog Prodocers annual, I will not comment on this part of ,ti10. Meeting. However, there were a couple of items in the program that were apparently overlooked. These sidelights developed at the Annual dinner meeting on Manch 21, Farm. organizations, particu- larly the Hog Producers, have 't times been criticized for their laxity in recognition of political personalities. This ov- ersight of the past was correct- ed by the presence of the Min- ister of Agriculture, the Hon. W. A. Goodfellow, Mr. Biggs, George McKague, opposition leader Farquhar Oliver, and C.C.F. leader MacDonald at the head table. It was surprisingly evident that the Minister of Agricul- ture end the Government he represents has lost the confi- dence of the hog producer del- egates to an amazingly high degree. This fact reflected qu- ite clearly in the Minister's face from time to time. Many delegates commented on this after the dinner and some at least had hopes that it would have some effect on Govern- ment farm policy. In 'the light of this it came as quite a shock to me to hear it reported over CFPL radio on the morning of March 24, that the Ontario Minister of Agriculture now feels that the time has arrived' to remove the ban on the sale of coloured margarine In Ontario, Have we farm people drop- ped so low in the eyes of Government that a show of dis- pleasure has no effect on our elected representatives? I re- sent getting kicked but Ito be considered too dumb to know it, really adds insult to injury. Perhaps the Hog Producers can find some comfort in hav- ing the Cream Producers join them in licking each others wounds, but I wonder who will be next on the list of second rate citizens? 0 Holstein Men See New Stabling in Farquhar Barn Members of the Huron Coun- ty Holstein Breeders' Club held their annual barn meeting at the farm of Douglas Far- quhar, RR 2, Clinton, when a type classification demonstrat- ion was given by Gordon .Bell, Sit. Marys, fieldman for the area. Winners in a competition on the cl ssification of cows were Clifford McNeil, Goderich; Ja- ck Van Osch, Goderich; and Allan Searle, Walton. Mem- bers of a panel on the raising of calves and heifers up to breeding age included Mr. Bell as moderator; Ross Marshal, Kirkton; Mac Smith, Listowel; Bill Hough, and Ross Trewar- tha, Clinton. In charge of the meeting was Howard Feagan, Goderich, the club's first vice-president, who presided in the absence of the president, William Boyd, Wal- ton. The remodeled Farquhar barn, with all new stabling, proved of much interest to those attending. Co-op insurance; Also Gift To C.

Wood-Bee Organized Friends and neighbours of Donald Middleton, who is re- cuperatimg from an operation, held a wood-cutting bee for him on 'his bush-lot on Tues- day of last week. This bee was organized by Ray Wise and Joe Gibson. When a fel- low is not feeling too well, good neighbours are a wonder- ful thing. Saying Good-Bye About 70 persons gathered together in the SS No. 9 (Tip- perary) schoolhouse last Fri- day evening to honour two families who are leaving this vicinity; Mr. 'and Mrs. Charles Cooper, who leave shortly for Meaford and Mr. and Mrs. Al- fred Hudie and son, John, who now reside in Clinton. The Rev. E. J. B. Harrison acted 'as master of ceremonies and welcomed the large crowd present. The first part of the even- ing was spent in viewing three films: "What Price Freedom?" a gripping story of life today in Eastern and Western Ber- lin and of the conflict between communist and Christian id- eals, In marked contrast was. 'the film "Wild Life in the Roc- kies" a delightful picture of the animal life 'in Banff and Jasper Zoological Parks. The third film entitled "Ottawa, the Capitol of Canada" was both educational and beautiful, re- minding us of our wonderful heritage and its obligations. These films were presented by Ralph Holland assisted by Ch- eryl Steepe. Following the showing of the films, Mr. Harrison called the guests of honour, Mr. and Mrs. Cooper and Mr. and Mrs. Hu- die, and John, to the front. The reotor's warden, J. Ross Mid- dleton, read' the presentation speech, which was also signed by John Deeves, the people's warden. Edward Deeves and Ray Wise then presented 'the gifts, a large picture with light to the Hu- dies and a lovely walnut end- table 'and a lamp to Mr. and Mrs. Cooper. Mrs. Hudie 'and Mrs. Cooper were then also given presents from the Sunday School; the respective addresses were read by _Mrs. Ray Wise and Mrs. Keith Miller; these gifts were presented by Misses Elaine Smith and Arlene Dutot. Mrs. Cooper received a pair of corn- flower candle holders and Mrs. Hudie a cup and saucer. Mr. and Mrs. Cooper and Mr. and Mrs. Hudie all thank- ed their friends for their lov- ely gifts and invited them 'to visit 'them when possible. The Rev. E. J. B. Harrison paid great tribute 'to Mr. and Mrs. Cooper 'and Mr and Mrs. Hudie, who have been stalwarts of St. James Church. "A great loss has been sustained by our parish. They have always been regular attenders in God's house and we could all remem- ber to follow in their foot- steps." Mr. Harrison wished them all God's fullest blessing in their new associations. A bounteous' lunch concluded a pleasant evening. An automobile driver makes more decisions in a 10-mile trip than an airline pilot makes in a flight right 'across Canada, says the Ontario Safety Lea- gue.
