Federation of Agriculture Offers to Support Farm Union on Milk Question The Ontario Federation of Ag- ;iculture is supporting the Ontario Milk Marketing Board and the Farmers' Union in the campaign to prevent the importation of whole milk powder. "The Ontario Milk Marketing Board have made presentations to government some time ago and :he government took no action. Now the Farmers' Union has brought into the open a glaring failure of the Canadian govern- ment and the Canadian Dairy Commission to prevent the import- ation of dairy products in the face of present milk surpluses. " The government and the milk producers are putting large sums of money into the support of the in- dustry. The government should have prevented this importation and must move immediately to stop further imports," the OFA president said. There may be a limited need for whole milk powder for north - Used Haying Eq ment WINDROWERS 2 INTERNATIONAL 175 — 10 -FOOT (With Hay Conditioner) INTERNATIONAL 201 — 10 -FOOT FOX FORAGE HARVESTER NEW HOLLAND FORAGE HARVESTER NEW INTERNATIONAL 27 BALER (Bargain Price) NEW INTERNATIONAL RAKE No. 16 (Bargain Price) N. T. MONTEITH EXETER LTD. 235.2121 "The best in service when you need it most!" ern parts of the country, but im- porting it for making ice cream is totally unwarranted. There has been some suggestion that unnecessary violence and destruction of property took place. While the OFA might be critical of such action, the economic iiolence to producers by govern- ment negilence or incompetence is to blame. Farmers are bound to ask them- selves why it takes this kind of action to get results. When the government was told of the im- portation, why did they not move immediately to cut the imports and restrict the use of this prod- uct to areas where there was no locally produced milk? All importations of all milk products should require an import licence and, only when there is no locally produced alternative, should a licence be issued. 0 Work Advances On Ice Plant For Bayfield Arena Much work has been done in the Bayfield Arena in the past three weeks. Miles of pipe have been fast- ened to the floor and cold mix has been spread between and over the pipes. All that remains o be done is the application of a hotmix of asphalt over the whole works and then the roller skating can begin once more. If hard work has it's just reward there should be a least four months of ice skating in the Com- munity Centre next winter. It would be next to impossible to list the names of all the men :hat have worked on the above project. Suffice to say that their efforts will be appreciated by theyoung and the young at heart :hat will make use of the new ice surfacein the future.
