Town of Seaforth
Re Dog Proclamation
In view of the disregard by the general
public of the recent proclamation
issued by the Town Council re the
confinement of dogs, and the fact that
they are not to run at large at any
time, the Council feels that charges
must be laid under this By-law.
Any owner or harborer of a dog who
allows it to run at large can be sum-
moned into court. The fine in a case of
this kind could be $50.00 and costs.
The Council and myself would ask all
citizens concerned to comply with the
laws and avoid the consequences.

County Hog
Producers Meet
Ontario ' iiog producers may
have to 'take :bold steps to keep
control •of ;lite sale of their pro -
duet, Charles Molnnis told Hur-
on •Oounty farmers in •Clinton.
He ,hinted that drastic action
niay conte during 1059 to meet
the challenge of vertical integra-
tion presented by feed and pack-
ing companies.
Nearly 100 farmers at the an-
nual hog producers' meeting' ap-
platrded the Ontario president
when. he cried: "If they're going
to invade our Yield, we've got to
invade theirs."
He -Wouldn't commit ,himself
on whether the co-op should en-
ter the processing field but he
said; It we do, ive should go
into it fast, strong and sound."
The Ontario president indicat-
ed a thorough study will be made
to determine how producers
could best fight contract farm-
ing "Your board is now planning
on getting one of the best men on
the North American ..eontinent to
study this problem and recon. -
mend how it can be placed in the
control of the producers."
"if we allow vertical integra-
tion to go through, we will lose
our bargaining power," he said.
Thousands of farmers might also
lose their livelihood, he suggest-
ed, since some •persons were al-
ready predicting that it would
,take only a few thousand farm-
ers to produce the pork now be-
ing provided by 40,000 Ontario
producers.
Contract farming, he charged.
was being promoted by the trade
to undermine the producers' mar-
keting program.
"What's going to happen if ave
have vertical integration to the
point where a few large corpor-
ations get control of production
It simply means that the con-
sumers in this province are go-
ing to be at the mercy of a few
large cartels in the matter of
]trice and in security of volume.
Can you :think of anything more
serious or dangerous to the con-
sumers of Ontario?
"It will do the same thing to
us in the hog field as it has the
producers in other fields." It has
been going on in the cotton -
growing areas of the United
States for many years, he said,
and the grower's have ended up
as "peasants."
"We can see what's happened
to the poultry industry. Did you
ever see poultry prices at the
levels they are today Thousands
of farmers are missing the rev-
enue their small flocks used to
bring in."
"If vertical integration is here
to stay, we must have it from
the producer up. The consumer'
will get far better treatment at
the hands of the producers than
at the mercy of a few big corpor-
ations.
The Ontario president said the
producers' long fight to put their
product on the open market had
brought them "many hundreds
of thousands of dollars."
Despite the fact that produc•
tion was as higher in Ontario in a3
than in all previous years but
one, the agency had been able to
get the producer an averageprice
of $23.44 for Bi's, which was bet
ter than the .five-year average of
928.19,
The Ontario price, -he said, had
averaged 13.15 above the average
of the three western markets,
compared to a differential of
91.70 before the agency ,began
peration,
The president congratulated
Huron .farmers for not plunging
into a great prodtuotion program
d.urieg the .past year. In other
counties which ,had, .there was a
noticeable drop in the percent
-age of A hogs being produced.
Huron. -had 'maintained its qual•
lty, he said, '
Elclrid Aiken, ohair'mn of the
marketing board ,said the "board
will ,play 0 vital part in fighting
noutraet feeding or vertical lute
"ration,"

H,ULLETT
He challenged the recent state-
ment el an. OA0 professor- who
said "vertical integration was in-
evitable and marketing boards
-must go," The marketing board,
he stated, would be the guaran-
tee against a complete integre,
Hon program.
'Retiring president Bert Lobb,
who chaired the meeting, indicat-
ed Ise would continue to press for
the operation of Huron. assembly
Yard two days a week instead of
one, He reported over 33,000 hog's
had been sold through the Clin-
ton yards in 1958 and he felt an-
other day was warranted to "give
mare farmers the convenience -of
FOB shipping."
Httrou had produced less than
150,000 hogs during the past year
but the ,percentage of A's was
over 33.
He felt there was never a time
in the history of the hog produc-
ers association when'_ it was as
strong as it_is now.
Producers again turned down
a Farm L-nionsupported resolu-
tion the hog producers to give
farm -to -plant marketing a try in
a test area. -This resolution was
brought in with dour others pre-
sented by Edmond Hendrick, Cre-
diton, chairman of the resolutions
committee, and it created a pro-
cedure problem which involved
considerable argument.
