Celebrate One Hundredth Anniversary Wit' Convention in Toronto Last Week The Ontario Fruit and Vege- t a b:'e Growers' Association marked is iooth anniversarv when it convened in Toronto, January 12.14. Several from Durham attended, inciuding Mayor Wilfrid Carruthers of Bowmanvi]le. who was elected vice-president. Organized at Hamilton on Jafiuary 19, 1859, the Associa- tion today represents growers producing crops having an an- nual value of $125 million. The industry, in turn, sustains a large. nuniber of distributors, proces- êors and manufacturers of ma-1 teniais used in growing and marketing.1 "The record of the association chances are a plame won 't bit your home..

Robinson. secrctary-treasurer of the association as he made pre- parations for the centennial ob- servance. It is the story of an industry that started from scratch and because of inquir- ing minds and by trial and error laid the foundation upon which progress bas been built," he added. Ail records of the association have been preserved including the first cash book. 'These records tell of the srgles of the pioneers who lid th foundation of today's organization", Mr. Robinson stated. When finst formed, the association was known as the Fruit Growers' Association of Canada West, then as the Fruit Growers' Association of Ontario. In 1905. the vegetable section broke away and formed the Ontario Vegetable Growers' As- sociation but in 1948 the two organizations merged under its present name. One of the association's great- est concerns is the exploitation of Canadian markets by, import- ers of fresh and processedi fruits and vegetables. These imports have a gross value of more than $200 million. "Thus the tariff issue is ever present just as it wxas in 1881 when the Association officiais of, that day were complaining of ,apples brotight from Missouri to Montreal and repacked and sent away as Canadian apples'," Mr. Robinson stated. Speakers at the three-day con- ventionq held at the King Edward Hotel included John 11.

Iti points out that auction selling would be a retrograde step as viewed by modern marketing Iexperts. j"During the past five months," states Char-les W. McInnis, pre- sident of the Ontario Hog Pr-o- ducers Cooperative" oun discus- sions with the processors ind'- cate that they are satisfied on'y with a systeni o! auction selling. It is the opinion of our Board that this would not be hn th best interests of hog produccî on the trade in general. "After conducting the anaiy- sis contained in oun Brief f0ý Mn. Frost. we have become even more canvinced that our present method of selliniz is sound practice and fair to aII l parties in the trade." Mn. MeInnis wcnt on to state that it would be breaking faith xvith. Ontar-lo producers if auc- 'tian selling was adopted. He, stated it is howevcr, the inten- tion ýo improve the selling methods wherever possible and ta continue to adapt mechan-I ical aids such as the Toronlo Stock Exchange have wherever necessarv. The present method of mar- keting hog.s in Ontar-io is rela- tie simple. Hogs are coliect- ein 17 marketing yards of the cooper-ative located around thej province, and then the co-op- er-ativ&es sales staff then pr-o- ceeds to sell themn to the pack- ing houses operating in On- tar-lo. An indication of the cf- fectýiveneczs of the system is that the record weeklv number of hogs ever soid in the prov - ince occurred just recently on the iveek cnding Jan'îarv 10, 1959 when over 52.000 hogs ,wxere ,old through the co-oper- 1ativNe's office. adlian Federation of Agr'ieul. ture.
