Hog Production A committee report of the •hog producers committee wasb u - s mitted by Orval Taylor, Bel - grave, followed by a discussion on the proposed marketing ag- ency with W. R. Lobb, Clinton, and Roy o Jewell, ,welldirector of fam services for The London Fr e Press, participating. Editor Speaks Kingsley Brown, Toronto, edit- or of The Rural Cooperator, said the federation is attempting to maintain a balance within its own organization, and between its organization and other in- dustries. "The federation became organ- ized because the farming industry was out of balance with other industries. No country .in the world is getting food as low in price, as high in quality and as plentiful as Canada," he said. Mr. Brown predicted that be- fore long, most farm products would be controlled by goqd farm marketing agencies. "Good matt, keting agency should be able to inorease the standard of quality and even distribution." He emphasized that women's institutes and women's auxiliar- ies had been overlooked too long by the federation. "There have been very few federations in Ontario which have had women directors," he said, adding he felt this was a grave mistake.
