For that matter, it makes little difference whether you dry feed, slop feed, or let them out to grass in the summer time, it still pays to feed the pigs first. When the last pail of water, the last gallon of chop has been deposited in the trough, a, strange, almost eery silence descends over the stable. You even fail to notice the fighting and pushing that still goes en in the pen, as the porkers, in true pig fashion, try to ,crowd one another Out of the trough. Pigs are funny, you know, they are a lot like humans, Their meals are the most important things in the world to them, and If they don't get them when they want them, they set up an unearthly howl. Humans are the same, or have you not eaten in a restaurant lately? The most refined, genteel people become loud, and raucous when they have to wait that extra few minutes for a well-done steak, (Who can afford a steak?) That's one characteristic humans and pigs have In common. Then, there's that one, of trying to push the other fellow back from the trough. That's a human characteristic. Maybe the pigs learned it from us, who knows? We always notice that the man who MR. COMER AND HIS POLICIES By R. J, Deachman Mr. M. J. Coldwell is one of the interesting members of the House of Commons. He is a good parliamentar- ian, an excellent speaker both on the hustings and in the 'House, He was elected to the House of Commons in 1935, became leader of the CCF in 1940 and has carried on through all the intervening years that arduaus and discouraging task. Mr. Coldwell is fluent, has a good owe and great case of expression.' Rarely does he have to hunt for a word, even more rarely does he lose 'his temper though a man in his p.)si- tion might well be pardoned for drAng ! so. The House of Commons is a paor i place to speak except on rare occas- sions when, for some peculiar reason, the atmosphere becomes tense, the House expectant. The Leader of the CCF has a more difficult time than has the leader of either of the two old political parties. The. CM,' is one of the younger groups in the House, Men are tied to a party i by association aria tradition. They may be there because of deliberate I choice or they may have been offend- ! ed at something that happened in their former political home. The at- mosphere may be new to them, there are many things to hamper their or- atorical flights. The noviciate must i accustom himself to the difficult sur- roundings. It may be trying in the earlier stages. Then there are difficulties for some in taking up a widely divergent point of view. The CCF is composed of ;Conservatives, Liberals and several deviations within these two main atoms. In the old parties they knew the story of their birth and freedom ; but the CCF'ers must at times wonder Ifrom whence they came and whither their destination. The CCF is in part a labor party. in part agricultural. Labor wants higher wages, the farmers wish wage rates were lovver. Labor wants price I controls and the farmer wants price controls of the things h,, floor:; under the things he sells. The railway men are demanding higher wages, to the farmer this means higher freight ' rates, There is a way in which these two could be brought together but it is not likely to be done. High wages are not always helpful to labour. They may lead to lower total wage payments. People buy less when prices are high. The price mechanism le mom closely adjusted than most people think, there is a broadi differ., once between high wages and high total wage payments. To make the CCF a political success it would ho necessary to bridge the gap by male- frig the goal of labor a high level of total wage payments. The big line of cleavage, however, runs in another direction. The for, eign policy of Mr. Coldwell can hardly be in line with his dual purpose party, I refer, of course, to his attitude on foreign affairs. In 1939 he made this statement: "Canada should he prepared to defend her own shores, but her assistance should be limited to economic aid and must not in- clude conscription of manpower nor the sending of any expedi- tionary force .. , no military par- ticipation overseas." I do not know if he still sails under that banner. I hope not, It's a safe policy •if safety is the only thing that matters, Suppose, however, that Rus- sia conquered Europe, stood on the shores of the Straits of Dover, what then? Coldwell was born in Devon, England, a lovely County. I was born in Canada, My mother came to Can- ada from Ayshire, Scotland, the birth- place of Bobbie Burns. What picture would flood through our minds If we both felt that the old land was threat- ened with invasion? That is the un- answered question, ,ii.4.0.133.11010.11:10-thalmor.alcutrIgrie,INIX.(Kall..6.0•Ktaio.04//1,41..

Both like to take the add sojourn into the slums, and roll around in unpleasant surroundings. For the hogs it's usually the mud hole in the corner of the yard,--for humans, . . well, there are a good many 'wallows for them too, and a lot of people have lost or endangered their social stand- ings by wallowing too deep and too long. Somehow or other, you can't help but wonder whether or not the hogs aren't away ahead of the average farmer. They eat and growtat, they have no problems, except their appe- tites. The farmer has to worry about taxes, costs of production, risks and depreciation,"labour costs, and finally market quotations, Whether his carcass is worth 25 cents or 40e a pound, the hog continues to live the same peaceful life. Humans have too much responsibility, Speaking about hogs, on the serious side, the new government regulations and for Years co NEW "MONOPANE" WINDSHIELD NEW CENTRALIZED I'siDE•AwAY" GAS CAP NEW WIDER RANGE OF MODELS on hogs, weights and grading have caused a lot of controversy. Accord- ing to a reliable packer, here is the latest set-up, Under the recent an- nouncernent by Mr, Gardiner, calling for heavier carcasses, the actual grading standards will not be cluing- cl, in so far as premiums are concerned. Only the weights of the carcasses have been increased. Now, no carcass weighing less than 150 pounds, warm, dressed weight, will merit a permium, regardless of qual- ity. Carcasses, weighing 100 to 180 pounds, and grading A as to quality will be eligible for the $2,00 premium while those in the same weight aeale, grading B as to quality, will receive the $1.00 premium, In other words, hogs must reach a minimum of 210 pounds live, preferrably 220, and dress a minimum of 190 pounds, to qualify for the premiums. Considering feed consumption, It would seem smart to try and market your hogs as soon as they reach the minimum weight scale, Feed is expensive, 'Phone 256 R. A. Spotton.
