Federation Fieldnan Reports On
Hog Producers Annual Meeting
(By J. Carl Hemingway)
The Ontario Hog Producers
held .their annual meeting in the
Seaway ,Hotel an, Toronto, with
some 350 delegates and visitors
lin attendance.
The president of the association,
Charles 'McInnes, the president 'df
the Co-,onEldred Aiken and the
secretary, Mr: Boynton, reported
on the activities •of the Ontario
Hog Producers for the year.
The. vertical integration that
seems! to be,growling in the Hag
industry was given serious con-
sideration. It seems to be the feel-
ing of the meeting. that Co-ops
should be entering contract farm-
ing and in this way the family
farmer could derive at least some
profit from the feed business
through the patronage dividend.
It was !also suggested that, since
packing, ,plants are entering ,the
field of production in direct corn -
Petition with farmers, perhaps it
is time., for the farmers to serious-
ly consider Co-opp packing plants.
The Co-op in Barrie seems to be

in commpany .with. Father Joseph
Mariana, pastor of St. Maria Gor-
etti, an Italiian parish in London,
called on Mrs. Josephine Duch-
-arme and also on Mr. and: Mrs.

territory in their past work. Fath-

the future be amply rewarded! for
:his great effort and sacrifice,
Farther Mariana., an Italian
priest, speaks French. fluently and'

country.
Good Weather Needed
On this beautiful Monday morn-
ing the opemang days of the aut-
unnm season has entered with sea-
sonable weather to greet us, and
especially the fanners, who at
present need a sipeilli of dry weath-
er to harvest and save their• late
crops.
Due to the past wet and =maid
days fanners have been retarded
in harvesting tiheir. bean, crops, 'butt
so far not too much dhlmagge has
been done. This coping week, Wirth
'favourable ,Weather, amus h will be
a!acomii 1tished, also much ,fall
wheat (Willi be planted,
profitable in spite of their cora-
plaints against the agency..
Several resolutions were approv-
ed. One of these was the recom-
mendation that the commodity
(groups! j'otin with the, Federation
in employing an Information -Dir-
ector Ilieadlman to distribute in-
formation to the farmers.
A resolution that was: passed
back for further study was the
question of the advisability of
haviilnpg the ,government continue
to freight subsidy on feed grain,
It was also felt that farmers
should be able to purchase gratin
from the elevators on the same
basis as feed mills. It was felt
(hat these two thongs provided un-
fair assistance to the Large corp-
oration.
It was .pointed out that the
suibsidy on the grain used by one
large feeding establishment am-
ounted to $50,000 per year.
It was also pointed out that
while processors were claiming
surplus supplies of pork, sornle
stores were unable to : buy suf-
ficient porde. Perhaps there is
roomy: for improvement in the dis-
tribution iby the trade.
Eaeh county president was ask-
ed to comment on the marketing
program. Frioan that at was q'.dae
apparent that the Eastern Count-
ies, are quite anxious to come und-
er the compulsory (program.
Of the Western Counties; al-
ready under the direction order,
all but one heartily approved the
present program. There were some
who felt that additional market-
ing yards would be helpful and:
others who would like presemlt
yards open another day a week.
One county felt that marketing
yards were an unnecessary ex-
pense end that the hogs should
be' .directed from the farmer's
barn. However, no practical way
was suggested to handle the me-
chanics of this method. The meet-
ing seemed to feel that the check
weighing .of live hogs was very
important and as yet no one has
told us bow this could be done
at the farm. C'ertairily the trade
will not accept the weight on farm
scales' as a basis for dressing per-
centages.
