great expansion ladies and gentlemen it has been a great honour for me to re present such a progressive people and such a very rapidly expanding riding i have always had the feeling that the problems of our municipal governments our school boards public welfare and our different farm organizations had an honest problem to bring before the different departments of the provincial government in that wa it has always been of great satisfaction to me to get a satisfac- tor settlement to our problems it has been a great privilege and honour for me to represent ou in our progressive conserva tive government in the province of ontario if you see your way to return me and the hon leslie frost and his government on june 11th it will again be iny privilege to sere you to thej of my ab- iht in the future as it has been in the past advertisement dairy farming big business canadians will be reminded due ng the month of june that the dairy industry is still one of the ndlions lirjest most hnportml and most complex businesses 0er the cars diirwn in all its rain ifel itions has become highly ef fici nt lu with the produc li n of milk ind carrying through to the delier of the finished product to the consumer for stance it miht be assumed that the dairy cow populilion would be increasing with the increase in milk production which last year topped 18 billion pounds however the number of dairy cows in can ada has not varied significantly for man j years remaining at a level slight above three million anim als steadily increasing milk pro duction while influenced on a seasonal basis by weather condi lions csn be directly traced to herd culling and breeding prog rams which have resulted in herds of more highly p cows canadian dairy farming can be divided into two main classes the specialty dairy farm where all the income is derived from the sale of milk and dairy cattle and 2 the general dairy farm whe this culling process is the source of considerable dairj income since it is estimated that 60 per cent of the beef and 40 per cent of the veal consumed in canada comes from dairy herds in a country which sometimes becomes preoc cupied with the importance of wheat is is worth remembering that in a given sear the farm val ue of the products of canadian dairy herds exceeds that of any other single farm product includ ing wheat the dairy herd and its produclt are only a part of the farm busi ness the specialty dairy farm most likely will be producing flu id milk for a nearby city or town i and some breeding stock may be i sold if herd members are ot good enough quality to be in demand the general dairy farm may pro vide a variety of alternatives the milk may be separated and the cream marketed while the skim milk is kept at home as feed for hogs or poultry here again the sale of breeding stock from the hard from time to lime may be an important part of the general farm operation general dairy far mers often have some cash gram or other crop to sell in addition to the milk which may go to concen tratcd milk plants or cheese fac tories in connection with dairy farming it is important to remember that milk is not the only product of the herd in the process of manage ment calves as well as cows have to be culled in the interests herd improvement which in turn is responsible for the increased milk production mentioned above garnets for service quality ready
