THE TELEGRAM
DAILY PLUS WEEKEND
On Zriday, September 29 a
meeting of county representa-
tives of the poultry producers
was held in Toronto. J. Kohler,
of the Hog Producers Market-
ing Agency, outlined the tele-
type auction method in the sel-
ling of hogs which seems to
be Ibringing Ontario fanners
satisfactory prices, compared
with Chicago and other Can-
adian markets,
A representative of Bell tel-
ephone 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 smal-
ler 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

will be available and I hope to
be able to get it out to you.
Beef producers, I hear are
having difficulties in getting
enf;oree:nent of the bill of lad,
ing 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 cantle 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 extremely dif-
ficult to establish.
Knowing Chas, and enforcing
these regulations quite striotly
where other goods are trans-
ported, it seems strange that
there is hesitancy in requiring
the 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 quar-
ter?
Carcasses are defatted and
the dressed weight is taken
afterward. What does this
mean?
One producer remarked that
he had heard that one pro-
cessor was cutting the neck off
at the shoulder 'instead of at
the head. This could mean a
difference of ten or 15 pounds
in the dressed weight for wh-
ich the producer gets paid. Is
there any regulation governing.

REASONS WHY
YOU CAN'T BEAT
GAS HEAT
'ECONOMY: Gas burns all of itself. It's more efficient
than any other fuel—has no tank to be insured or motor to
be repaired. Score one for this reason.
CLEANLINESS: Because gas burns all ofitself; it leaves
no dirt or grime to ugly up the interior of your home and
plug up your furnace and chimney with soot. (Less cost for
.cleaning and painting also.) Score another full mark.
DEPENDABILITY: Gas comes in a convenient under-
ground pipe and is never at the mercy of that inconstant,
harsh old fellow called Winter. Score another full point.
EFFICIENCY: Scientific studies prove that gas heating
units are more efficient than those using other fuels. Gas
burns all of itself, leaves no dirt or grime, gives you constant
circulation of fresh, heated air. Score a full mark for this
one, too.
QUIET, TROLYBLE-FREE: Because gas furnaces
have fewer moving parts, they last longer and run more
quietly. This means no expensive repairs or parts replace-
ment; we feel it's worth agood full point.
IT'S AUTOMATIC: The little thermostat on your wall
does all the work and automatic controls ensure safe, trouble-
free operation. Chalk up another point.
NO STORAGE PROBLEMS: We do the storing for
you in our natural underground storage areas --then we send
it to you in a pipe as you require it. Score another full reason.
SPACE SAVER: Natural gas units are more comp=
because they need no motors and storage bins and sucbw,
They also come in a wider range of sizes, so you can chaos*
the exact model for your purpose. Score a full point.
LONGER LIFE: When you consider the fact that gas
heating systems up to 30 years old are still working perfectly
today, you have yet another full point. Besides this, there's
Tittle or no depreciation on gas equipment.
NO DELIVERY WORRIES: Gas comes to you con-
veniently in an underground pipe and no amount of rough
weather can upset deliveries. What's more, there's never any
damage done to your driveway, shrubs or lawns. If you've
ever had this happen to you, you'll agree that it's worth
another full point.
EXTRA BENEFITS: We give you guarantees, free
heating surveys, free check-ups, free service, liberal budget
plans, and plenty of free help and advice whenever you ask
for it. But we sort of feel that you're automatically entitled
to service like this, and we take it for granted. So let's- just
count this reason as worth Half a nark.
'TOTAL: 101/2 GOOD REASONS
So go modern with gas
this winter! Convert

Attending NDP Convention, Huron
Federation Fieldman Earns Applause
Among 50 !members in the
farm 'committee of the New
Democratic Party are Carl
Hemingway, Brussels and the
Rev. A. H. Daynard, Staffa,
the Federation of Agriculture
fie'ldxnen for the counties of
Huron and Perth.
According to a ::.cbe and
Mail reporter at the founding
convention in Niagara Falls on
Monday, the farm group at the
convention was given a resoun-
ding welcome. Following is as
part of the Globe report:
The dominant trade union
and Co-operative Common-
wealth Federation groups
shouted unanimous approval
of the provincial NDP's draft
farm :policy,
Another indication of labor -
CCF appreciation of the farm
vote in Ontario politics was
the reception given J. C. Hem-
ingway, a faun delegate from
Huron County and slated to
be chairman of the NDP reg-
ional conference on farm policy
early next year.
With the exception of the
predictably enthusiastic wel-
come to NDP Federal Leader
T, C. Douglas and Ontario
Leader Donald C, MacDonald,
Mr, Hemingway received the
most sustained applause of any
person to address the conven-
tion, after he spoke in support
of the draft farm policy.
Mr .Hemingway, who descri-
bed himself as a "small con-
servative," told the convention
this was the first political
meeting he had attended in 20
years. He said the NDP would
gain a lot of farm support if
it could show farmers through-
out Ontario the sense of pur-
pose it had shown him.
He said the first contact he
had with Queen's Park was
,siren he was a, delegate for
hog producers protesting the
restrictive marketing measures
contained in, Bill 86.
"I heard a discourse from
the Premier (Leslie Frost) that
was an; insult to the intelli-
gence of farriers," Mr. Hem-
ingway said.
He said the Progressive Con-
servative Government had giv-
en farmers good farm legisla-
tion but the Government had
interpreted it badly and used
it to restrict progressive farm
marketing.
Leonard Laventure, Glasgow
Station, elected Sunday as a
vice-president of the Ontario
NDP, also received loud ap-
plause when he told the con-
vention that collective bargain-
ing for labour and farm mar-
keting for farmers were the
same thing.
Attacking the Farm Prod-
ucts Marketing Board, Mr. La -
venture said: "You labor people
have collective bargaining, but
how would you like it if you
had to go to a Government -
appointed board before you
could do anything?"
The two most immediate
things called for in the draft
policy adopted by the conven-
tion are the removal of rest-
rictive measures in provincial
,marketing legislation and long-
term credit with easy terms to
finance ,adequate acreage and
equipment.
Also proposed is an expand-
ed research program to help
farmers keep abreast of ad-
vanced production methods, and
a policy designed to eliminate
monopolies in farm machinery,
fertilizer, agricultural chernio-
als and other basic supplies.
This is to be ,achieved through
co-operatives where possible
and public ownership where
necessary,
Another item calls for estab-
lishment of a department of
co-operatives under a cabinet
minister to encourage pro-
grams of voluntary self-help,
Thirty-five voting farm dele-
gates attended the convention,
although only 16 arrived on
opening day. The NDP, how-
ever, has attracted more than
50 members to its farm com-
mittee,

Will farm budding plans ch-

"Yes," says Professor C. G.
Downing, head of the depart -

Ontario Agricultural College,
Guelph. "Farm building plans
will change a great deal from.
the traditional barn with all
the facilities under one roof
to separate units for the hous-
ing of livestock, storage of
crops, feeding of craps, milldngg
operations, and so forth.
The units will be located to
facilitate ,the flow of material
from one area to another; the
farmstead will be arranged so
that the buildings become part
of a system somewhat analog-
ous to that followed in indus.
try, where several plants com-
bine to produce the end pro-
duct. Each phase of the pro-
gram will have an important
part to play in itself and each
will be accountable on a paying
basis."
Other developments?
"Farm size will continue to
increase, but crop acreage per
man will not increase at es
rapid a rate as during the past
20 years because of the increase
in livestock farming in moat
areas of Canada; this will tend
to accelerate the upward trend
in the number of animal units
per man."
The OAC engineer sees mo -
bale power developing to about
twice that of the present tract-
or power, with the major har-
vesting developments being for
special crops such as :tobacco,
beans, cucumbers, . tomatoes and
grapes. The pelletizing or waf-
ering of forage craps to im-
prove handling for automatic
