Present Ontario marketings are running approximately 100,000 coses per week, while market requirements are approximately 92,000 cases per week according to the Ontario Egg and Fowl Producers Marketing Board.

Huron Returning Officer Garnet flicks, said there have been few inquiries or complaints made about voting lists and procedures. "Of course that is the result of good management ahead of time," .he said with a smile, "But seriously, there have been very few people in." lie said there have been few inquiries about voting by proxy, "But maybe you wouldn't expect I hisso mech in a rural area," said Mr, Hicks. As far as the voting lists are concerned, he said there have been hardly any changes made in the lists, and not one complaint, "There have been far less names added than in the last election," he said, He added however, that if a person's name is omitted from the voter's list, it is the duty of the voter to rectify the situation. "The enumerator is the first to blame,but the general public is 75 percent to blame," said Mr. flicks. "It is theduty .of the public to check the lists," He said there have been a normal number of inquiries about the advanced poll. This will be held in the five major centres of the riding , Clinton, Seaforth, Goderich, Wingham, and Exeter, and rural voters will place their ballots ie the appropriate town. Advanced polls will be held all day Saturday, October 21 and Monday October 23. In Exeter the advanced poll will take place in the town hall. prices and increased costs to the Board of buying surplus eggs. The Board stresses that all producers should market their older birds, and that producers who are refilling present facilities do not exceed 80 percent of normal capacity. Quotas will be allocated shortly. Do not be in a position where it may be necessary to market new birds to stay within quota. The Board has been disposing of their storage stocks on a regular basis and although of- ferings were very heavy last week the Board's current storage position is very good. Present stocks have only been in storage 3 - 4 weeks and will not be released for another month. These storage eggs are having a somewhat depressing effect on the price of undergrades and the Board is attempting to find other ways of disposing of its surplus stock in hopes that it can bring the price of undergrades closer to the price of Grade A product. On September 14th the Board presented a brief in support of the proposed National Marketing Agency for eggs. Hearings have been held across the country and the National Farm Products Marketing Council will soon be recommending to the Govern- ment the establishment of a National Marketing Agency. We have copies of this proposal and should any producer wish one, please write us. Target date for implementation of the National Plan is sometime prior to the end of 1972. The Board has had many queries about the importation of U.S. eggs into Ontario. To date, 1111ASITY SEIIICE MitgPTI TIFICMM. `"Ls InT7IITE rtEEITA CrA ninIstotalr.74.

Since the Fowl Slaughter Program the marketings of old hens has been very low. This coupled with an increase in hatchings has created a heavier production of eggs now, than prior to the slaughtering, The affect of this one production will definitely have a bearing on the price the Board can maintain for producers. Therefore a cut back is needed now. The Pricing Committee has in setting egg prices been very aware of the cost of importedeggs to Toronto and Montreal. Since government hasn't seen fit at the present time to provide added Tarriff assistance so Canadians egg producers can have a reasonable return on their product, we have achieved our pricing level by testing this market. Before pricing was done by the Egg Board Ontario eggs were priced at a discount to U.S. eggs for a majority of the time, however we have now achieved a premium for Ontario eggs in relation to imports. This pricing to a premium, Ontario eggs to imports, can cause rapid price changes when import prices fall. The last price drops have been directly due to the import price situation. We on the pricing committee are very aware of the average weighted price needed for producers to break even. We had achieved a 36 cent per dozen average in early September in Ontario, a profit of about 3 cents per dozen according to the Judge Ross report. However our need to lower prices due to Import Price Pressure has now brought Producer Prices again to the break even level. Any further reductions will put production returns in the red, Although the immediate pricing decline is directly a result of Import Price levels, the continued surplus pressure of our production can have under mining affects on future price levels. It is therefore extremely important that slaughterings of fowl be stepped up, and replacements be reduced in preparation for quotas and. controlled production, Once quotas are established the responsibility of producers to conform within his • quota structure will be his own responsibility and any losses attained in selling off young pullets or hens to stay within this quota allotmentcould be borne by the producer alone. there has been approximately 3-4 carloads of eggs imported by various dealers each week. This importation reached a record high the first week of September, at which time nine carloads were imported into Ontario from the The Board has contacted the Federal Government and ex- pressed great concern over this matter, and we have been assured by the Canadian Minister of Agriculture that once the National Marketing Plan has been implemented and all producers are under a controlled marketing programme he will not allow imports to jeopardize our market. Because of these imports and the lowering of the price of eggs in the U.S.A., the Board found it necessary to lower its prices on large and extra large. Except for the first week of September, imports have not had a serious effect on our overall programme, but caused only minor aggravation. Producers are urged to express their concern about U.S. imports to their local candidates in the present Federal election. It is imperative that all Parties un- derstand the problems and concerns that egg producers have regarding importation of U,S. eggs. At a recent meeting of the Board with the Egg Processors' Association, some of the problems that are prevalent in the industry were discu.sed. The use of plastictrays and wire cases was discussed with the Processors, and the majority feeling was that at present switching to completely plastic material would be too costly for most grading stations. However, the larger stations assured the Board that they were using new material in most instances. Processors advised that key trays supplied to the producers were being used by some producers for their own customers rather than being returned to the processor. Another problem that the processors mentioned was the loading of eggs on the egg truck. The Board's price is f.o.b. the farm, however, it is the responsibility of the producer to assist the driver in loading the truck. The Board would remind producers that as a health measure it is to the producer's advantage not to allow the driver into the egg room. Bill Mickle of Hensall is a director of the Ontario Egg and Fowl Marketing Board for Huron and Perth Counties and a member of the pricing com- mittee. He provided the T-A with the following information on the pricing committee, The Pricing Committee con- sists of producers, processors and government personnel. The committee meets weekly and sooner if necessary to review all aspects required to set the price for eggs the following priced period. The final pricing is also achieved in consultation with Manitoba and Quebec Egg Marketing Boards. Dashwood anniversary Special anniversary services were held at Calvary Uhited Church Sunday with Rev.
