Aid to Industry June Set-aside Sales promotion and advertising of dairy products carried out by the Dairy Farmers of Canada and financed by the June Set-Aside, was commended by Hon. W. A. Goodfellow, Minister of Agricul- ture today who said that the organ- ization was carrying out a work of great benefit to the dairy farm- ers of Ontario. "While the Dairy Farmers of Canada is a national organization, their activities in the development of sales for dairy products have been of great value to the Province of Ontario, where approximately one-third of Canada's milk supply is produced,"' said the Minister. With dairy products facing in- creased competition from other lines, the consumption of dairy foods could only-be maintained through modern merchandizing methods on the part of all sections of the industry, said the Minister. The proper presentation of dairy products could not be left entirely to the retailer but must receive the attention o fall sections of the industry. The Minister felt that perhaps the producer was more concerned than anyone else since adverse marketing conditions or surpluses were immediately re- flected at the farm level. - The Minister said that the dairy industry had to be flexible in or- der to meet changing economic conditions: The introduction of the sale of fluid milk from stores was slowly changing the milk distri- bution system and providing a price incentive for those consumers who wished to carry their own pur- chases. Last year about thirteen and 35 per cent of all partly skim- med milk was sold in two-quart containers. Extent of the-change in the dairy industry is best evidenced by the |fact that there are now 98 dairies in operation in the Province, and nine processing plants which are supplied by 6,340 dairy farmers who have now installed bulk milk tanks. per cent of all standard milk cold' For centuries, Wild Rice has been a valuable source of food for the paddles from the stern while one aborigines living about Lake Super- ior, reports Dr. A. E. Allin, of Federation of Ontario Naturalists. In the past it was equally import- ant to the fur-traders who pur- chased vast quantities for winter food. Wild Rice is also associated closely with wild fowl in the minds of those who enjoy their game. The Canadian production varies from 100,000 to 1,000,000 pounds annually, dependent on weather conditions, water levels, and des- tructive weevils. Locally it grows in a few favoured places, particu- larly Cranberry Bay off Lake Su- perior and. Whitefish Lake. Both are favourite feeding grounds for migrating ducks which consume great quantities of this aquatic grain. During the past autumn In- dian crews gathered at Whitefish Wild Rice Collected By Ojibway Indians and harvested an average crop of 10 tons. The Indians still collect the rice in the manner of their fore-fathers. Primitive camps, made incongrous by the presence of assorted bottles, cans and other garbage of civiliza- tion, are set up on the shores of the lake in late August. Slender canoes are pushed through the rice beds by pairs of workers. One in the bow bends the slender blades over the canoe with one slender, tapered, 30-inch cedar stick, and with steady, rhythmic blows, knocks the rice grains into the bot- ton of the canoe. Lost grains settle to the lake bottom for next year's seed or food for migrating water- fowl. Later, much of the rice will be sold to commercial interests. Some will be saved for local use. This will require drying in the sun with later heating over slow fires. The parched seed is then trampled Lake from widely scattered. areaStg separate grain from chaff and birch-bark baskets. The estim |value of this year's crop of wil Rice from Whitefish Lake ' $7,000. In recent years, mechaniz equipment has been devised to ha vest the rice commercially, bu the Ontario Department of Lan and Forests banned its use. So ea' ch os fall the rice is still collected by the ner of their ancestors. Timely Tips Make a hay probe if you stud ae tough hay this year.
