Feed costs have increased considerably since the survey was made and so has the price paid for milk. The loss ratio will be substantially the same in 1951 as at the time of this survey. The speaker then spoke of the unfair competition confronting the dairy industry of today. "The vege- table oils used in the main pro- ducts which are replacing Cana- dian dairy products, are almost en- tirely of foreign origin. The water —and I learned that water forms- a substantial part of these products— and the salt, are Canadian. Our Lanark County friend made a clear-cut case out of the proposal that our Canadia.n farmers could open up a new source of income by producing vegetable, oils for sub- stitute products. This cannot -be done because the price of imported oils, is so low our farmers cannot 41111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 Don't Miss Tiie Exciting New Quiz "FREE PRESS CAL1ING P1 Monday Thru' Friday — 4.30 p.m. OVER CKNX WINGHAM Valuable cash prizes with a Jackpot Award.

The duty was reduced from 13 per cent to nil about one year ago. This places our farm population in direct com- petition with people in' countries where starvation wages are paid and the working class are little better than slaves. Since this change in Empire tariffs took place cocoanut oil is being used in place of cottonseed oil and soya bean oil that was imported from the United States and subject to some rest: tions.' This would indicate that the cost of production of margarine should be lower. However, the cost of this product has followed the price of butter up as though it were a part of the dairy industry. In 1939, cocoanut oil could be pur- o'hased , in Canada at 6.1 cents per pound. More revealing statements were made regarding substitute pro- ducts. Kreamy Whip is now used by sections of the baking trade in place of whipping cream. It has a vegetable oil base, skim milk and powder make up the rest. It is us- ed in cream puffs, topping for pies, cakes, etc. It contains no cream. The cost is about half the price of natural cream. In the United States a product is sold that is skim milk fortified with vegetable oils and- is sold as a replacement for milk. By a simi- lar process oils can be used to re- place the cream in ice cream. Farm cash income from dairying in 1950 was $62,500;000 less than in the year 1948. This loss relates chiefly to eight Provinces in the Dominion, for Quebec and Prince Edward, Island do not permit the sale of margarine and Newfound- land 'has never produced any size- able quantity of dairy products. The speaker then touched on, the reported high price of dairy pro- ducts. "High prices do exist in oth- er commodities, both food and manufactured articles, and they cause hardship; but dairy products are expected by the public to be sold at levels lower than those of other commodities." It is apparent that unsatisfac- tory prices in the dairy industry has driven Canada from a surplus producing nation to an importing one. Butter, cheese and even pow- dered milk has been imported into Canada during the last year. This places us in a vulnerable pnsition if we become involvedin another world war. Our supply of substitute and imported products will be cut off' and our home production will knot be adequate to feed -our people. !During the last war we supplied Marge quantities of food to our al - 'lies. What have we to offer today in the line of food- supplies except. wheat We have imported butter a.t 564/2 cents per pound, while our own producers were asked to pro- duce at 53 cents per pound. We have imported cheese at 34 cents per pound when our own producers had their cheese requisitioned at 28 cents per pound. We have members of parliament who are willing to stand up and defend our dairy industry in the House of Parliament. What are we doing to defend ourselves? Not on- ly are we permitting ourselves to be pushed out of business, we are placing our Nation in danger by letting her supply of home produc- ed food decline. In an area ravaged by war the only thing that really matters is that you have food, clothing and can find shelter from the weather. A lot of the things that are essen- tinl:s today will be useless in a time of national disaster. Appoint Assistant To Huron Agricultural Representative Colonel the Honourable T. L.
