A man is getting well along in years when an old flame doesn't seem so hot. prop in farm prices Milk .producers leaving At a recent board meeting of District 6, Region 3 of the National Farmers Union, the cost of natural gas was discussed. It was stated farmers in Canada paid more for their gas to produce food than American consumers pay for Canadian gas used in their homes. The following motion was passed unanimously: "That the National Farmers Union im- mediately make a strong presentation to the Federal Government demanding con- sumers protection against price increases of all fossil fuels and natural gas, that are not based on actual production cost, and request the Federal Government to institute a well-head pricing policy system that would be fair to all food producers, not just the Alberta Government and oil and gas corporations." Pork was also discussed at the meeting, farmers stated of ex- periencing losses of between 30 and 50 dollars a pig in some in- stances where weaners were purchased for $42.00. Different farmers handed in their cost of production sheets as requested by the National Far- mers Union at a special Regional Meeting held in Toronto recently, and the following resolution was passed: "Whereas Ontario pork producers are receiving less than cost of production for their pork;" Wins in Leadership Robert Rowe, son of Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Rowe, RR 1, Exeter graduated Thursday from Ridgetown College of Agricultural Technology.

DICKINS Phone 235-1465 every year. lip to now much has from the USA's highest been salvaged by greater ef- agricultural ficience by the producer, but how long will that be possible.? Mr. Pigeon, president of the Dairy Farmers of Canada said recently that young men in his area are going to the factories and make from $175 to $200 per week. "Why," he asks, "should a young man invest about $200,000 in a farm, work twice as long and gets less money?" The dairy man has to receive a better income or sooner than you think we will have to pay import prices. David Lewis' accusations against food retailers making unjustified high profits are echoed by America's agriculture secretary Earl Butz. "Prices of Mrs. Plumtre, of the Food major farm commodities have Prices Board said that; "Farm dropped 20 to 40 percent since incomes are up 89 percent but as January and February. It is high recently as three years ago time that these lower farm prices farmers were not getting any show up more fully in lower retail return on labour and investment, store prices. While food prices at and even today dairy farmers are stores have levelled off some, not always getting a return. This marginsare still higher than is why the cost of dairy produce is normal." These are harsh words going up." Canadian farmers pay more for natural gas Food prices generally dropped some, if not in the proportion of farm prices, April food cost in the house dropped a fraction, while food prices at the farm dropped like a brick. A price freeze, as advocated by the Conservatives would freeze my price at the farm to bring me right into bankruptcy. It is interesting to note that the overall food cost went up. This is because the cost of eating out increased almost two percent. This, of course is not a true food cost, but a service cost. Statistics Canada however rates it as a food cost. 0E018 Affign CIL EXTERIOR FRESH PAINT Many colours from which to choose! .75 C+11, SAVE 1.00 ''.11111:131SEVe,11 EK'S AL SAVEWAY MONEY SAVERS CEMENT We believe this to be the lowest price in town!
