Egg quotas
Ode of the major recommenda-
tions of the royal commission ap-
pointed to look into the egg indus-
try in Ontario has been accepted
by the provincial government.
William Stewart, Minister of
the Department of Food and
Agriculture, announced last week
that authority has been given to
the Ontario Egg and Fowl Pro-
ducers Marketing Board to es-
tablish egg sale quotas effective
immediately and that the move
will not be subject to a vote by
producers. -
Judge James F. W. Ross of
Thunder Bay headed the com-
mission and his report was tabled
in the legislature on April 7th.
In the report Judge Ross said
the legal limit should be set on the
volume of eggs thcan be distri-
buted by any one hdividual or
corpora tion.
His suggestion was a maxi-
mum of 30,000 to 45,000 hens, the
volume that can be produced on
owner operated farms with two
or three workers.
• The minister's statement Last
week did not make any reference
to specific quantities. He said an
egg marketing plan will be estab-
lished in the province as soon as
possible.

You'll probably need
more hot water
thisM,mmerthan
you did last winter.
• Summer is the time when you and the kids go
through a lot more clothes. So you have more laundry.
And you take more showers, too. A Texaco oil fired water
heater will heat water faster than gas, and considerably
faster than electricity. For only pennies a day.
