The Brussels Post, 1973-01-03, Page 3TODAY'S CHILD
BY HELEN ALLEN,
HE NEEDS A FAMILY
Tommy is just learning to skate so he doesn't get around
on ice very fast - but he is the star goalie for his class hockey
• team.
At.nine, Tommy is a healthy youngster. However, he has
developed slowly, and physically and emotionally he is more like
a six-year-old. He is in junior opportunity class and will
continue to need special education. ,
• Slightly built, Tommy has blue eyes with long thick lashes,
light brown hair and fair skin.
This friendly, obedient lad likes to be given small respon-
sibilities and loves ' to be praised. He is kind-hearted and
sensitive to other people's feelings. Having been frequently
rejected when he was younger, he has a great need for warmth
and acceptance.
A talkative youngster, Tommy is sometimes so eager to
tell 'about school or a game or whatever interests him that all
the words seem to come out together. He enjoys the trampo-
line and climbing equipment at 'school and loves the ,water
though he hasn't yet - learned to swim. He gets on Well with
both children and adults.
Tommy needs patient, affectionate parents "who will give
him praise and encouragement without pressuring him to
achieve at the level of, other children his age. He Can fit
into a family with brothers and sisters but' preferably there.,
should be none close to him in age.
To inquire about adopting Tommy, please write to Today's
Child, Box 888, Station K, Toronto M4P 2H2. For general
adoption information, please contact your local Children's Aid
Society.

tione made recently by eXPerts
of Agriculture Canada. ,
MEAT
Although beef suPPlieS are
expected to increase in 1973,
demand is also expected to con-
tinue at high levels, thus prices
should remain unchanged.
Compared with a year ago,
pork SOPPlieS are expected to
average higher. During the last
half of the year, supplies should
increase and prices average
lower.

EGGS Prices will be above a year
ago in the first half and 'may
weaken in the second half of the
year. Supplies will be slightly
below a year ago till June.
DAIRY PRODUCTS
Total milk supplies will likely
be greater in 1973. The con-
sumption of fresh fluid milk and
cream is expected to increase
and more ice cream, butter and
cheese will be eaten.
FRESH FRUIT AND
VEGETABLES
The supply of apples in the
first half of 1973 will b e
smaller resulting in, higher
prices. It is anticipated(weather
permitting) that there-will be
an increase in the supply of
tender tree fruits, such as
Peaches and pears diming the
summer and fall. The dernand
is expected to increase in 1973,
thus prices are likely to re-
main firm. The price of grapes,
raspberries and strawberrieS
will probably continue at high
levels during the summer and
fall.
Reduced supplies and in-
creased demand for potatoes will
result in firm prices during the
winter and spring. Supplies of
onions, carrots, cabbage; and
rutabagas , are lower in both
Canada and the U.S.A. and with
a strong demand, prices will be
higher,than in 1972.
CANNED AND FROZEN FRUITS
AND VEGETABLES
Smaller available supplies of
processed fruits and vegetables
will mean prices above the 1972
level.
HONEY '
There is a relatively short
supply of honey on the market
and prices will remain firm.
MAPLE SYRUP
The supply of maple syrup
is down and as a result prices
will remain firm,
