National President
Mr. Gilbert McMillan, President of the Dairy Farmers of Canada will~attend a meeting here this ‘evening with representatives from our creomerics, cheese factories. and milk plants. The mcctiitg will he held in Birch (‘curt at the Experimental Farm. We are confi- dent that those who can arrange to attend will leave with a better understanding of the whole dairy industry picture in Canada. The meeting is opcn to all the pro- ducers as well ns the factory dir- ectors and manner-rs.
Transportation Brief
Our Canadian Federation Eco- nomist provided the honrd meet- ing with a detailed rcvicw of the transportation issue as ii cffccts Canadian agriculture. Bnscd on this and with the ndvice of sev- eral non-political cdvisors who had experience in railway problcms the C. F. A. directors prepared the ibrief for the Roval Commission. lAlthough the dctnils cannot he ‘revealed or summarized at this
time we can say that there was general agreement. from coast to coast on the nectl of a statutory rate on grains. ‘The feed grain as- sistance policy still has the stip- port of farm producers in every province although thcrc were cer- tain objections presented to ,the Dominion Government recently by trade officials from the “fest.
It seems evident that the Do- minion Government is depending on the organized farmers of Con- nda for support. in maintaining our freight assistance policy.
Food Contracts
There ls nothing definite as yet with regard tn fnorl contracts with the United Kingdom for next ycar. The dollar situation is serious but there seems to be a ray of hope in Ottawa that some arrange- ments can he worked out at the Washington Conference.
British officials are calling to Ottawa on their \\'i’ly Io Washing- ton next week to discuss food contracts with Federation and De- partment officials.

this will come before breeding for next year's hog production has gone too fur.
The hog producers committee asked for Government control of all export shipments of pork pro- ducts to control uniformity of grade and high quality in order to cntcr and maintain the bolt ex- port markets. They also commen- ded the work and operation of the Canadian Meat Board.
A. Proposal Accepted
Mr. l-lannam reported to the meeting that the United Nations had not only enthusiastically ac- cepted the Canadian plan for dis- posal of food surplus endorsed by the I.F.A.P. conference but had gone one step further and have outlined a proposal for financing this scheme, Mr. l-ionnom also re- ported that he was making a pro- sentotion to the F. A. O. Commit- tec respecting commodity agree- ments.
It. is encouraging to lee that farm organizations are able to make such o contribution tow'ard world affairs. Solving the food dis- tribution problem seems to be one of the most important issues.
(Io-Op Committee Too
It. was revealed lilo that the recommendations of the co-oper- otive committee of I. F‘. A. which met last June were also accepted by F. A. O. The educa- tional heme proposed and the barter system suggested for ex- changing goods between co-opern- tive groups in different countries of the world. may also be a big help in getting around some eco- nomic questions.
Local Activities
It seems as though farmers in some areas of the Island are not concerned about the future mar- keting problems. Prices are high now. They are too busy producing food products to think about mor- kciing them, Perhaps after long hours of hnrd work they are quite willing to hand the fruits of their labor ever to someone else and tuke whatever they get without question. This has been quite safe during the war period but from many angles their appears to be a gradual tightening up in markets now. When the lqueeze comes, they will expect their or- gnnizatlon to have things ready. but. without some financial and active support now from everyone, many things will have to be left undonc.
It even seems difficult (in some areas) to get a good turnout of farmers to a meeting to discus: some of thole problem: with them.

Some of the members have brought this to our attention‘ and we question whether such activi- ties are consistent with the pro- motion of musical and drama fes- tivals and a program of leadership training which is being promoted throughout the province.
Our series of marketing meet- ings will continue next uxeek. There will be a directors meet- ing Tuesday ngiht. A meeting at Fort Augustus Wednesday and one at Crapaud Thursday evening.
Barb Wlro Problem
The C. F. A. office contacted the other provinces with regard to this poor quality barb wire, that we took up a fcw iveeks ago. They find that there was a big improve- ment in the quality throughout Ontario and in Western Canada last year, and the lllpply that is being distributed in Quebec and the Marltimel is apparently old stock. The matter has been taken up with the Standard Division of the Department of Trade and Com- merce and we have been assured that there will be a closer inspec- tion and can expect nn improve- ment ln the quality of this pro- duct in the near future.
Hog Prlcee Down
After several months of relative- ly strong hog markets due mainly to l decrease in production in Western Canada the nose-dive oc- curred during the past week. Hog prices dropped $3.50 and sows $1.00.
This was not unexpected be- cause any price over $30.00 at the prelent time i| not based on ex- port but on domeltlc demand. Now that current production is catching up with local consumption, prices are automatically hosed on export which ranges from $28.75 to $30.00 on grade A's. Whether prices go up any in the next few weeks de- pends on marketing volumes lo- cally. Prices on the Island arc baled ulually on the negotiated price at Moncton which in turn depends on the Montreal market. We must be ready to support and work with our Maritime mar- keting organization if this policy ever changes. However, as long as we can produce top-grade hogs and can maintain an export for bocon our position is fairly secure. For a long time price: on X heavies and XX henvies has been relatively low. namely 25c over No. 1 rows. The argument of the trade has been that these fat hogs, 196 poundn and over were not wanted on domeltic markets. However. after continued representation on thin there has been an ndiultmeni made and farmers should receive now at least $6.00 over No. l sows on hogs dressing up m 215 it”,
We find that farmers generally are getting better returns on their lambs by selling on a rail-grade basil. Thin it quite in order as both picker! and conlumers nrc quite randy to pay a premium for
quality.
