Recently, reported the ree-
onuriendatiens given by "Aig,
ricultural experts" to
Which were to the effect that
something must be 'done to pre-
vent a rise in the price of feed
grains. In the July 26 issue of
the Winnipeg Free Press the
meeting of the Farm Union
also expressed concern over the
sudden increase in feed grain
prices.
I quote; "Mr. Mel Tebbutt,
'OFU presoident, said, the in-
flated price wan making it im-
possible for Ontario Feeders to
feed Western feed grains."
would ask the question
"Who is being prevented from
feeding this grain"?
Certainly a $10 increase per
ton is not going to keep the
"grass-roots" family farmer
from purchasing the odd toia
of grain to tide him over until
harvest.
From the most recent fig-
ures available from the De-
partment of Agriculture 78.7
'percent of the grain fed in On-
tario is grown in Ontario, When
we realize that there are 'a
good many extremely large egg
producers with up to 130;000
hens; that practically all the
broilers and turkeys are fed
on commercial feed; that there
are also mainy extremely large
hog and cattle feeders who
purchase hundreds of tons of
western feed, we can only con-
clude the vast majority of far-
risers will not be affected by
inersed prices of commercial f
As feed. prices rise it simply
means that this "grass-roots"
farmer (for whom farm or-
ganizations are supposedly wor»
icing) will be in a mach better
competitive position in the pro-
duction of food.
Let us not complain about
the high cost of feed grains
lest we encourage the govern-
ment to investigate the advisa-
bility of issuing import permits
for US feed grain which, ac-
cording to Ottawa Report, they
are presently considering.
Let us look at the relation-
ship between grain prices and
farm prosperity.
Again, according to the latest
figures available from the Pe-
pertinent of Agriculture for
Ontario; The price of feed
grain climbed steadily from 19-
42 until 1951, and then began
a steady decline to 1959 with
a very slight increase in 1960,
In over 20 years of farming
my most prosperous year by
far, was 1951 when the average
price far oats was 91,5 and
barley was 1.30.7.
For many years I have be-
come more and more firmly
convilnced that the prosperity
of the real farmer is directly
dependent on the comparative
value, in our, economy, of what
his land produces,
It is my earnest hope that
our farm organizations will
keep this in mind and act ac-
cordingly.
The September session of
Huron County Council will
commence on Friday, Sep-
tember 1st, at 10:00 a.m.
All communications to be
in the hands of the Clerk
not later than Friday,
August 25th, at 5:00 p.m.

The Free Enterprise Agricul-
tural Producers of Ontario, set-
ting up machinery for official
organization, including newly-
issued membership cards, last
week elected a provisional
board of directors which will
hold office until the inaugural
meeting, probably in January,
The board will comprise 12
members. Only n were elected
last week, the 12th is to come
from Eastern Canada.
The elected members are
Peter McDonald, Oxford Coun-
ty,; Robert Wilhelm, Perth
County; Don McKenzie, Huron
County; Vern Lusted, York
County; Arnold Darroch, Wel-
lington County; Blake Sn.obel-
en, Kent County; William. Har-
ris, Bruce County; Joseph

The Ontario Safety League
reports that in Bangkok, Thai-
land; four fire trucks banged
themselves up trying to gat to
a fire. One of the fire trucks
hit a truck and a taxicab. Two
more got involved with a police
car, and the fourth hit a pol-
ice call box. They did make it
to the fire, but it had already
burned itself out.
Many years ago I did my
work with horses. Sometimes,
in the hurry to get the work
done, the load got a little big-
ger than it should and perhaps
there was a soft spat on the
road to the barn. It was too
much to ask of the team but
they dug in their toes and the
load arrived at the barn.
A similar situation developed
in the FAME canvass in Huron
County. When the dates were
arranged for the share sales
drive for Farmers' Allied Meat
Enterprises Co-operative Ltd.,
it was expected that haying
would be over for a couple of
weeks before harvest started.
The weatherman didn't see th-
ings that way, So haying drag-
ged on until the harvest was
waiting.
However, many canvassers
just dug in their toes. Their
efforts were successful. In three
days of the campaign some $12,-
000 in FAME shares were pur-
chased.
Colborne township stands at
the top of the list, having more
than reached their quota to-
ward the 2 million objective for
the province. Tuckersmith only
requires four more shares to
reach its objective. The follow-
ing is the standing of the other
townships.
Joseph Cochrane, Sirncoe Coun-
ty; Edward Lorenz, Waterloo
County.
At the inaugural meeting
four directors will be elected
for a three year term, four for
two and four for one-year, and
at subsequent annual meetings
four directors will be elected.
A considerable amount of
time was spent discussing re-
ports of sessions with farm
marketing board officials, and
reports from representatives on
the hog marketing board,
Members of the free enter-
prise group which has been
active in an unofficial capacity
for about three years, claim
that, among other things, hog
producers are losing money
through the newly - instituted
teletype selling methods. Too
many Hogs are held too long
in assembly yards before sale,
they said.
The free enterprise organiza-
tion will not be confined to hog
producers, although it was dis-
agreement over hog marketing
plans which gave birth to the
group.
