ilk doesn't realize farm
Gordon Hill, president of the
aria Federation of Agriculture
the guest speaker at last
k's meeting of the Huron
deration of Agriculture in the
sail public school. He told the
eting that the Huron federa-
is one of the strongest both in
mbership and in representa-
in Ontario.
The Ontario Federation is
eatly concerned about the pub- •
attitude to farming and 'to
users, he stated. They don't
alize the greatly increased cost
farming. For instance, the cost
some fertilizers is up by 300%
achinery up 30%, cost of
racy, labour and building mat-
als are all up, but sale prices
not keeping pace. Livestock
are hardest hit, especially
*calf and sow operators.
ets are 'selling now for less
ney in some instances than
as paid for the stocker calf, so
e farmer loses all his cost for
d
The press furore about market-
.
gioards are' symptoms of the
blies' attitude, he said and-
ded "We can expect more
acks on farming in the future."
s an example, he cited the
ac s on CEMA. Not one good
ord was said in the big city press
eat CEMA. No one said
filing about the lower prices
consumer enjoyed last year
tapared with IJ.S. prices. No
e said anything that the eggs
t spoiled were for sale or the Tiire of the government to buy
ggs for welfare people or for the
odd, No one said that the eggs
reoffered to the breaker trade. N one said anything positive
oat CEMA, only the negatives.
MA was blamed for the pinent, from Newfoundland to but nobody said anything
out the railroadS who took van weeks to ship them across
Country and on the way found necessary to reload them into
that boxcar and none too
tdly fiir the eggs were broken
idt the cartons. Mt. Hill Cited
proof that a deliberate !Wi
h
ght is being made on &lin d farmers.
Now a Committee to getorth hiarketing has been Dinned. Is 6jthriiittet is formed by the i nttgatnrs and egg graderS
qposed the forming of the
Ontario Egg Board from the
beginning. Now they see a chance
and want to reduce the Ontario
Board to a promotion agency.
They circulate a document to egg
producers ,for 'those changes.
These people want a hold on
'the industry, Mr. Hill stated, and
any producer who signs this
documerat'signs for the. digging of
his own grave. Farmers have to
be very carefull about sugges-
tions for. change. They all say that
they are not against_ the farmer,
until the farmer insists on the
right priee for his product. Then
'they are not, for the farmer
anymore.-
Of Professor Forbes,, who was
commissioned by the Consumers
Council of Canada to study.
marketing botads, Mr. Hill said'
that Mr. Forbes before he started
his study, stated what, the result
was going to be. Mr. Forbes has
been a lifelong foe of marketing
boards. •
Mrs. Plumtree of the Food
Prices Review Board 'is being
used by the Anti-marketing Mites
Mr. Hill, claimed. When chain-
stores were found to be profiteer-
ing, Mrs. Plumtree said that they
-'wouldn't do it again, and she
defended processors; saying that
they Made no uradtie profit.
Mr. Hill, himself a bean
producer, said that bean prices to
the farmer are 27 cents per
pound. Another 48 cents is added
between farmer and consumer.
The farmer has,to plow, cultivate,
apply fertilizer and herbicide,
harvest and deliver for 27 cents.
The consumer pays an additional
48 cents for washing, sorting,
packing and retailing. When Mrs.
Plumtree finds out, what will she
do?
costs up ,OFA
The big city press 'attacked
farmers as a whole because a few
isolated cases of farm labour
abuse. Marketing boards are in
real jeopardy, Mr. Hill said.
Huron county has always been a
strong supporter of marketing
boards because they realized that'
without them we have no means
to' put a price upon our products.
If we. are caught in lower prices
and spiralling costs, we know
what happens. The farmer is the
only one who has no control over
.supply. Everyone else has, be it
labour or manufacturing. The
federation president would like to
see legislation changed to pro.
duction control from marketing
,control.
' He . voiced no objection to
consumer representation on the
Ontario Farm Products Marketing
Board and the. CanadianFood
Council. It may, be a good thing,
he said, for they might learn a
thing. or two.
We farmers deserve a lot of
criticism for failing to bring our
story across. Write letters to the
editor, he said, and call in on
open line radio shows. Every
farmer has that responsibility.
We need an information service
on a permanent basis as a source
for consumer editors.

meeting. Jake Van Wondern • of
