Hog Grading in Need of loyal:

In a discussion of hog grading in the issue of February is. The Western Producer. published in Saskatoon. quits appropriately quotes a statement made by Dr. R. E. Howe of the University of Saskatchewan who outlined the objectives oi a good grading sys- tem applied to livestock in these terms:

"The objective oi grading and the factors to be considered in establishing grades are trequently misunderstood. and the problems oi setting up grades and admin- istering a grade system are fre- quently under-estimated. The pur- pose oi grading is not simply to protect the purchaser but also to reward and encourage quality pro- duction, and in general. to pro- vide a better system oi communi- cation between producer and con- sumei-."

On the basis oi the above a- nunclatlon of principles The West- ern Producer was justified in finding the Canadian hog grading system faulty, since it is not now

pcct to grades of product the gap between producer and con- sumer has not yet been bridged. However. it is admitted in East- ern Canada. and to a consider- able extent in Western Canada, that rail grading is the proper way to go about the actual prac- tice oi grading hogs. One reason why no improvement in quality is being effected is because the price differential is out-dated. in- effective and unrealistic. Moreover. consumers are not able to pur- chase product according to grade simply because the system has not been extended that far, but could be. no doubt, if demand for it made it desirable or advisable. Basically, our system of hog grading is sound, but it could be improved by revising the price dit- ierentials and if consumers really insist onia complicated system

and in the showcase. that could be done, too.

In our opinion the hog grading system is well based. but from there on up it is in need of re- novatlon and repair.

Changing Times

There was a time when making a living on the farm was largely a iamily affair. The pioneers went into the woods or on to the prairies and built their own homes, mule their own furniture, drew their own food. made their own soap and had little contact with the outside world- Hard work and skill with tools. self-reliance and the ability to endure hardship were the chief requirements for success. We take our hats oil to the brave men and women oi pioneer days!

But those days have passed. we live in an age or interdependence where each man is but a cog in a great economic machine. And when someone throws a monkey wrench into the machine every part feels the jar and the strain. An event which happens in Eur- ope or Asia vitally affects the iamiers of Canada and Austra- lia. A few governments tinker with their tariffs or their cur- rencies or go in for self-sufficiency and John Farmer, excellent far- mer though he may be, may find himself reduced almost to the

Col. lieilh Rogers Memorial Award

QUEBEC. (CP)-Robert Hosie oi CKOM. Saskatoon, said Tuesday he regarded as a high honor award of the Col. Keith Rogers memorial in a member oi his radio station staff.

The award. in memorial of the late Col. Rogers oi Charlottetown, a pioneer in the technical advance from telegraphy to television, was made Tuesday night during the annual dinner of the 29th annual meeting of the Canadian Associa- tion oi Radio and Television Broad- casters to William D Forst "in recognition of his pioneering et- iorts in the field oi unattended operation oi broadcast transmit- tors."

Mr. Hosie who received the award on behalf oi Mr. Forst said the development permits operation of transmitters on an almost auto- matlc basis.

Col. Rogers built and operated Canada's first military portable telegraph set at Petawaws. Ont. In 1920 he constructed the iirst radlo telephone on Prince Edward Island and was granted the fi.ratI commercial radio license in east- ern Canada in 1924 for station CFCY at Charlottetown.

He died Jan. 21 last while plan- ning the establishment oi Prince Edward Island's first television station. I

Col. Rogers was a past presidentl ot CARTB and a director of Broad- l cast News.

war comes. the calamity is world-

'1de.

Under these conditions John Far- mer, as an izidivudual is helpless. His only chalice oi survival is to get together with all the other farmers. both to seek ways oi per- fecting the economic machine and to protect his rights. Organization -getting together-is the farmer's only hope.

Potato Pleblsrlte

The l)Z'lPl pl'(SPlllEd lo the Leg- islature last week announced the Federation's intention to request the holding oi a. plebiscite on the potato marketing scheme. The Potato Board has been operating for four crop years and has. dur- ing the past year. found it neces- sary to assume more and more control over mailretiiig. for the most part this increased control has been made necessary by the agreement with Federal authori-

es.

No definite decision has been arrived at as to the time of the plebiscite or the method oi con- ducting it but it is probable that within the near future these mat- ters will be decided and the in- formation released.
