Health, bas announced the ap- pointment of Major John A. Leroux of Ottawa te direct the Ontario gevennment's campaign against veneroal disease in both the armed forces and the civilian population. Dr. Vivian said that Major Leroux's appeintment was the first step in a cemplete ne-organ- ization o! department o! facilities for dealing with bis problem. Major Leroux bas been the di: nector-general o! the armny medi- cal services, erganizing venoroal prevention programs amongst the military forces.

ORONO NEWS Food Question Cause For Much Concern 'We are going to be scratching our heads a year from now on the food question," declared Profess- or W. R. Graham, Burlington, a former member of the staff of tbe Ontario Agricultural College, in an informative address before Peterboro Rotary Club Monday on the food problemn as it affected the Canadian farmer. Declaring that the farmer bad been working for nothing and paying bis own board for years, Prof. Graham said tbat the Can- adian farmer was not dumb and intimated that he was going to produce what promised to pay hîm the most. "The food administrators must decide wbat foods they want the most," tbe speaker said. "Then if they wilh make the price profit- able tbey will get tbe desired foods. The farmer can switch from bne crop to another in a hurry." Prof. Graham said that the two big probhems facing the farmer were the manpower shortage and the shortage of proteins. "There are net enough proteins in the wbole e'orth American continent te feed the existing ive stock 75 per cent of their requirements,' the speaker dechared, adding that the live stock population had been increased by one-third since the beginning of the war. Pointing out tbat milk was the best protein food on the farm te- day, Prof. Graham wondered whether the farmer, in view of the increase in cheese prices would continue to feed milk to hogs. Carnadian farmers, he said, had made a wonderful response to the demands that had been made upon them for bigger bog production and a greater produc- tion of eggs for dehydration pur- poses. "However the farmer bas had to pay highly for this patriot- ism," the speaker empbasized, ad- ding that he was just wondering what was going to bappen next.

The f ixing of a price f lon f or al f arm products is one of the first possi- bilities whicb it will examine. Graduate of O.A.C. A graduate of O.A.C., Mn.
