PAGE SIXTEEf THE CA!iADIAN STATESMAN. BOWMANVILLE. ONTARTO THURSDAY, DECEMBER?, 1950 rederation Secrelary Stressed Need "For DBelier Financing - Sironger Setup AI Well Atîended Pot Luck Supper Durham Federation o! Agricul- ture Secretary, H. E. Mison, stressed the need for better f in- anCing and stronger organization *within the Federation, in a short -Y address delivered at the Pot Luck *Supper held at Newcastle Com- - munity Hall, Nov. 30. Mr. Mili- son sa id such action was necessi- tated to cempete with industry and "a growing rural minerity in the province."1 Selected te pre- sent a brie! resume of Federation activity for this year, be proceed- cd te narrate happenings in chronological order. "At the outset o! 1950.'l he said, "information was received that ac- tion was necessary to prevent the downward trend o! most farm prices." This fact was evidently apparent in hogs, eggs, poultry, cheese and perishable fruits. The Federation across Canada res- ponded, according te tbe speaker, in an efficient and effective man- ner and as a unit were able te stimulate Government activity in thîs respect. Bouquet to Weeklies Aware o! the coverage given Federation affairs by Durham County newpapers, the Secretary o!fered a verbal bouquet to the weeklies and made particular mention o! The Canadian Statesl- man for "full coverage at al meetings." He complimented, too, Farm Forum Secretaries on the contribution they made te the Farm Page o! this newspaper. The Agricultural Federation in this County is definitely behind a program o! assistance te Junior Farmers and others interested in special training and short cours- es. Mr. Milîson said that ways and means were presently being sougbt te develop dloser co-eper- ation between Farm Forums, Junior Farmers and commodity APPLE JUIL m. '23c groupa. "It is obviaus," he stat- ed, "'that Junior Farinera wil. eventually be the executive of your Federation." He quoted sev- eral present day examples of Junior Farmers who have taken their ailotted place i the Feder- ation organization. He said a committee has been set up under Walter Reynolds to request Farm Forums and commodity groups to assist i the application and distri- bution of name signs to ail Fed- eration members. As reported previously on this page, the name signs, made of aluminum and painted black and yeilow, will be offered free of charge to members of the Durhamn Federation. Farmer Needs Culture Branchmng into the cultural cd- ucation of the farmer, the Feder- ation Secretary said, "The f arm home today, generaily speaking, lacks cultural education." He in- ferred that the Folk Schooi Move- ment is striving to bring about an extension to Farin Radio Forum in this respect and that commun- ity meetings were to be arranged to discuss definite subjecta. The speaker was of the opinion that when people from different com- munities gathered together to in- vestigate common problems, they will become more concerned with living a richer and fuller life. He said such forums would stress other than the economic prob- lems connected with farming and wouid be known as a Folk School. One such school is te be held at Easter, 1951. Mr. Milîson also made men- tion of the Income Tax query held at Orono recently which was com- pletely reported in the last sev- eral issues of The Canadian Statesman. He also brought the County Insurance Committee to the fore when he mentioned the work of Wilfred Elson and How- ard Foley, the latter, newly ap- pointed District Agent. Quotes Aesop Fable Concluding his address, Mr. Miilson recafled one o! Aesop's Fables to mind, which, he infer- red, would be well to bear in mind in respect to the Durham Federa- tion o! Agriculture. "A wise farmer strove ini vain to recon- cile his bickerlng sons," he said, "Finally, he called them ail before him and passed among them a bundle o! sticks commanding each to try and break the bundle. When ail failed, he untied the bundie and asked them to break the sticks one at a time. 'My sons,' he said, 'by this example yeu learn that a united family has strength. But once you separate you are destroyed'." A PLEASANT SEND OFF!I Dominion's frlendly service doesn't stop at the cashier's cmtef 1whe you've psid your bill. No, ir!

The figures were given out this week by A'g- ricultural Minister Kennedy. Ontario was the leading pro- ducer of mixed grain, alfalfaba, hogs, cattie, wool, drîed peas, dried beans, cheddar cheese, poultry meat, plumns, peaches, grapes, canning cern and peas, tomatees foi' processing, milk, honey, tobacco, timothy seed, ,red' choyer seed, busking cern and- soybeans. It was second in 10 more and third in tbree. 1' Ontario produced virtually al the country's peaches, grapes, busking cern, soybeans and dried beans. In ahl those it was res- ponsible for more than 85 per cent o! the ceuntryS total pro- duction. In the case of peaches and grapes, Ontario had 95 per cent. The bigh percentage e! the total peacb production was due te a nearly complete crop failure in British Columbia, normally a large peach producer. Forty-two per cent o! the hogs and 33 per cent of the cattie mai- keted this year came fromn On- tarie farms. In addition, the pro- vince produced 28 per cent of all calves, and 27 per cent of sheep and lambs. For several produets, o! wbicb Ontario bas net been regarded L.s a major producer, there were im- pressive figures. Ontario was second only te Quebec in the growmng o! potatees, and its out- put was greater than that of the three maritime provinces corn- bined. There aise were subsantial fiý, gures for grain and fodder. On- tarie -turned out 68 per cent o! the pountry's mixed grain, was, third in oats production with 17 per cent, bad 51 per cent o! the alfalfa bay output, and was sec- ond in production of hay and cie- ver witb 30 per cent.

What Otfhers Say (Saturday Night) It la certainly very unusual for any man te -be a bolder of the Victoria Cross, a Major e! the Ca- nadian army, a Minister o! the Crown o! the Province cf On- tarie, and an ordained minister ef religion in good and regular standing, but without present charge. Such is the position o! Major the Hon. and Rev. John ,Feote, MPP for Durham in the Ontario Legisiature. He acquired. cabinet rank on November 16,ý when be was sworn in to, succeed ,the Hon. W. E. Hamilton as Min-, ister cf Reformn Institutions. Major Foote has only been twe years in the Legislature, and dur- ing that time hee bas been chiefly ,concerned with rehabilitat i on work ameng alcoholics, a branch o! practical social psychology which b as made great strides in recent years, and te which On- -tarie bas . paid special attention. Linlike a good many pastors who 'have transferred te politics, he dees net owe- bis success in the latter field te bis silver tongue. A much more important factor bas been bis wide buman sympathy. FARM SUPPORT PRICES (Newmarket Era) support prices until domestlc pri- more people. We have st chance ces could be stabilized. now to get them from Europe, Farin support pricestare ali that and of the type that wilniake their critica charge t~m with. good Canadians. Let us go after They are dangerous and unfair. them.- They esta,:lish a precedent which- subjects the governinent to pres- sures which lead inevitably te the kind of extremes found in the United States. They force the consumer to pay a price which is 0 maintained by their own taxes. But they cannot be avoided as Aau I long as the government continues IIIN food contracts. NEED MORE PEOPLE0 (The Financial Post) x arzo muc LJi. uÂmmga- tien and population thinking in the immediate past has been in- fluenced by the fact that we no longer have great tracts o! good,1 open and vacant farm land avail- able for newcemers. We forget that in development o! industry there are ne similar limiting fac- tors. Each new industry estab- lished brings other industries and trades. During the last war and since, we have been plagued with man- power shortages whenever na - tional business spurted. This country cannot develop as it should and could develop, this country cannot achieve great in- dustrial strength, unless we have The Staiesman Sold Af Following Stores Dyer's Drug Store, Newcastle.
