K. market, and the embargo on livestock to the U.S., the price of hogs had reached a low of 23c prior to the advent of United Livestock Sales, Since the agency has been in operation a matter of two months, the price had risen above the floor, and has consistently re- mained above that level. The speaker claimed credit for the agency in main- taining prices at the higher level, and maintained that if the producers were united behind the agency the result would he more prosperity for all. A question period followed Mr. Mc- Innes's remarks, during which those who were unhappy about the scheme aired their views. Reis lions between the drovers and the agency were dis- cussed, as well as irrdgularities in the system now operating. The consensus of opinion at the meeting seemed to be that Mr. MeInnee has explained the workings and objectives of the agency to the satisfaction of most.
