11/TlI lll/A LADIES’ SHOPPE
PORK PRODUCTION PROBLEMS
Over the week-end I was in receipt
of the Livestock Marketing Review
for the year 1954, which is available
from the federal marketing service
and gives a complete picture of all
farm stock marketings by months,
weeks and marketing areas. I was
particularly interested in the hog
marketing picture, particularly/from
a Western Ontario angle.
If you were to take a pencil and
draw a circle around the seven coun
ties of Bruce, Grey, Middlesex, Perth,
Wellington and Waterloo, you’d find
that in this area we produce 45.5% of
the hogs marketed in this province.
Perth County is the top producer, with
162,493 hogs marketed in -1954, with
Huron County second with 129,378
hogs. Waterloo was third, Welling
ton fourth and Bruce, Grey and
Middlesex follow in that order.
Let us not overlook the importance,
then, of the hog industry in these
counties of Western Ontario. Let us
not forget the importance of West
ern Ontario hog producers to the
consumer who likes bacon for break
fast, ham for dinner and sausages
with his lunch. As a matter of fact,
these same seven counties produce
17.4% of the hogs marketed in Can
ada last year, a total of 811,220 hogs,
going out from these Western Ontario
farms.
No wonder, then, that so much in
terest is to be found in these areas,
interest that centres around the Hog
Producers’ Association, the United
Livestock Sales, and the packing in
dustry. No wonder the hog producers
are vitally concerned over the future,
over the prospects of marketing
changes. This week the Ontario Hog
Producers’ Association is meeting in
annual sessions in Toronto, and they
have a peck of problems to thresh out.
First of all, they have a court case
coming up in Stratford shortly, in
which Theadore Parker, of Ellice
Township, in Perth County, is testing
the legality of the United Livestock
Sales and the Farm Products Mar
keting Act. Secondly, they may be
faced with an Ontario-wide vote
among producers, according to a story
in Saturday’s Toronto Star. The On
tario Cabinet is, according to the
Star, thinking of turning the whole
controversial issue over to the pro
ducers for either endorsation or de
feat.
However, the Star’s known Liberal
affiliations may tend to make that
newspaper view the whole situation
in an unnecessarily serious light, for
it would then be indicated that On
tario’s Conservative government is
faced with a major issue. Personally,
I don’t feel it is as serious as the
Star indicates. The selling agency
has been endorsed by producers at
every County meeting to be held in
this area, and although there are
critics and those opposing it, still
if it comes to a vote, I feel that it will
be endorsed.
All of these things remain to be
seen, of course, and we’ll have to sit
back and watch the proceedings. But
here in Western Ontario, where the
bulk of the hogs are produced, there
is a lot of interest
Research Aided by
Junior Red Cross
Ontario Junior Red Cross can in
deed be proud of having had a hand
in the establishment of a great hum
anitarian project in 1954,
In 1952 through a federal health
grant the Sick Children’s Hospital set
up a cleft palate research project in
the dental department. To assist this
program Junior Red Cross donated
$15,000 and because of the interest
created by this work the Atkinson
Foundation gave a grant of $217,000
to the research institute of the hospi
tal for the continuation of the pro
gram. Today such handicapped child
ren are helped through the efforts of
a team of specialists drawn from the
departments of surgery, dentistry,
medicine, speech therapy and psy
chiatry. Red Cross assistance in the
pioneer work aided materially in es
tablishing this clinic, first of its kind
in Canada.
Three dental coaches are still help
ing to bring health and happiness to
children in remote areas. In a single
month Red Cross dentists in render
ing service to needy children average
485 appointments, At present Red
Cross dental coaches are stationed at
Britt, Northbrook and Ophir.
Ontario’s quota in the March appeal
for funds is $2,173,000. When you give
through Red Cross you make sure
such vital services are maintained.
Give Generously.
