Riehmond, of the Whyte Packing Co., Stratford, told a joint meeting of the Hibbert Federation' of Agriculture and farm forums at Staffa Monday night. Mr. Richmond, discussing the mar- ket situation generally as it affected the farmer, reminded his audience that Britain had not, to date, renew- ed her beef contract with Canada and if the contract was not renewed there was likely to be a surplus of beef in this country. Speaking specifically on the export market, Mr, Richmond said it was "complex with some people painting a rosy picture and others remaining tgloomy," He thought that the filling of the 1.547 bacon contract with Bri- tain was an accomplishment of which Canadians could be proud. He said, however, there were indi- cations that possibly only 40 per cent of the 1947 volume would be shipped to Britain in 1948.
