EIGHTY-SEVENTH YEAR Much Dissatisfaction Expressed at Dairy Farmers Meeting at Ottawa More Government Action Urged in Support of Farm Produce Prices Two prominent citizens in the promise realm of farming last week expressed themselves on the subject of dairy prices.One was Agriculture Minister Gardiner, who at a press conference, outlined a programme\u2019 for a 38-cent floor price for eggs.: The other was Mr.Gilbert McMil- | lan who emphasized that a state of emergency existed in the dairy industry.Mr.McMillan was speaking | at the annual meeting of the Dairy Farmers\u2019 Association of Canada.In no uncertain terms Mr.McMillan blamed the government for part of the troubles in the dairy industry.Calling for government price support for all dairy products, he said that these products had no chance against sterling on world markets.\u201cWe think,\u201d declared Mr.McMillan, \u201cthat the time has arrived when a decision has to be taken as to just what our dairy industry is worth to Canada as a whole and whether it is worth maintaining at its present level of production.This was during the course of his annual report to a meeting of the dairy producers, in convention at Ottawa.He pointed out that the industry had been under Government regulation for years and expressed the view that had the case been otherwise, the producers themselves might be able to handle the present marketing crisis.He believed that the consumer- public must be convinced that low dairy product prices was not the way to a better standard of living.This message, said Mr.McMillan, ! must be \u201cput across\u201d at all costs.He noted that Canadian butter p-oduction had suffered severely from margarine competition.This fact, he commented, should \u201cgravely concern\u201d all producers at the convention, and he noted that the new cheese support prices would | cut returns to cheese producers by from three to three and one-half cents.The worth of Federal subsidies, in the long term aspect, might be debatable, he said.But he added: \u201cWe might as well realize that a healthy dairy industry cannot be built upon the basis of present ex-| port prices, and at the present level of Canadian costs.\u201d Mr.McMillan is not alone.Recently more than 500 Ontario farmers came to Ottawa to demand a federal price support programme.Representatives of the farmers of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry set forth the following resolutions: 1.The cheese price be increased from 28 cents a pound at seaboard\u2014 \u201cwhich is less thah the cost of production\u201d\u2014to 30 cents FOB factory.2.Price supports for eggs be provided sufficient to ensure the cost of production for at least a year be made effective.Producers had lost thousands of dollars through price declines and would have to sell their flocks at very low prices unless assistance was given.3.The Government give price support to all farm products until the levelling of all prices gives farmers a parity of income with other members of society.4, The Government keep its and maintain support prices for farm commodities commensurate with the cost of produc- tlon at all times.This resolution was put forward by war veterans , Who said they did not wish to suffer \u201cthe same disgraceful treatment\u201d as veterans of World War I.5.An international agency and fund be established through which exporting countries could sell surpluses after paying a fair price to producers and importing countries would buy at whatever they could pay, the difference between the prices to be made up by the fund.6.À floor price on hogs be provided equivalent to.the price prevailing in 1949.Copies of this resolution will be sent Prime Minister St.Laurent, Agriculture Minister Gardiner, Trade Minister Howe and Finance Minister Abbott.This resolution also asked that the Provincial Government of Ontaria reinstate the hog subsidy at once.It recommended the hog price be 30 cents a pound at the abbatoir, egg price be the same as in the last egg contract, butter bring 58 cents a pound and cheese 30 cents, It concluded that the Price Support Act, which expires in March, should be continued and prices covered by it reviewed six months before the end of every year.The Government, however, was moving cautiously.Eggs have been given a basement price of 38 cents for Grade-A large but there is no indication that other farm prices will be supported.In explaining the government's policy with regard to eggs, Mr.Gar- diner stated that packing plants and other cold-storage operators are guaranteed 38 cents a dozen plus the cost of storage for all unsold, surplus eggs at the end of 1650.Grade-A medium eggs will get a guaranteed price of 36 cents.This programme is «expected to increase the price of eggs on the wholesale commodity market from the current low to the 38-cent minimum.It may mean that packers or wholesalers will collect as much as 42 or 43 cents a dozen after storage costs are taken into account.Everybody fiom the egg farmer to the wholesaler is expected to benefit; it is debatable, however, whether subsidies and price-support, constitute a good long-term policy.Many experts are of the opinion that they should be used only as a temporary | measure.At a later meeting of the Dairy Farmers, delegates demanded that the floor price for cheese be set at 30 cents a pound.They also asked that the government help finance the export of concentrated milk products which are unable to compete with the lower sterling-area prices.They requested that the export price of butter be set at no less than the current price of 58 cents a pound and that the sales tax be removed from ice cream.In addition they asked for action against the sale of margarine which is hurting the butter market.Much of the meeting was devoted to discussing how an effective advertising campaign could boost the sale of dairy products.Harness Racing Subject of An Address at Rotary Club Mr.Roger Larocque Praises Huntingdon Track \u2014 Urges Young People to Take Interest this week was Mr.Roger Larocque, trict sales manager of Mas- sey-Harris, who gave an interesting address on the subject of \u201cHarness Racing.\u201d Mr.Larocque painted a vivid picture of the art of raising and developing horses, stating that there \u201cwas 10 greater thrill than to ride behind a trotting horse.\u201d Mr.La- rocque is well qualified in the realm of harness racing.He has been interested in horses most of his life, and holds the position of \u2018official starter\u2019 of Richelieu Park, Montreal and numerous tracks throughout the Chateauguay Valley.He nas a number of horses of his own in Ormstown and has a great deal of experience in promoting races.Mr.Larocque said that Huntingdon has, a very good track.He urged the development of harness horses In this district.Mr, Larocque\u2019s opening remarks denit with the evolution of the horse.He said that paleontologists estimate that the first Horse appeared on earth about 45 million years ago.It is given the name \u201cdawn horse.\u201d It was very much different from the species known today, having four toes and being only about the size of a small dog.Over a period of about 15 million years, the horse lost its toes, developed hoofs and finally evolved to OLD RECORD BOOK NEELIN, Man.\u2014 (CP) \u2014 A book, used to record

joined the Darlingford curling club 26 years ago.Today, though more than 82 years old, she still takes an active part in all her scheduled games.become the large animal we know today.Speaking of harness horses, Mr.Larocque said that they required great care, that infinite pains must be taken in raising these animals.This type of horse needs more care and more expensive equipment than any other, They must remain at a fairly constant speed or gait and they require a longer cooling off period.Mr, Larocque said that nothing can surpass the thrill of riding behind a trotting horse.not even riding at top speed in a new Cadillac.Mr.Larocque wondered why harness racing was not more popular in Canada.He said that many Ca- nadisu sportsmen pay high prices for American stallions to be used for breeding purposes when they should and could be developing their own.He said that we \u2018should urge our young people in the district to take an interest in horses, that there was no finer sport for the rising generation.Spebking of promoting races, Mr.Larocque said that the job required a great deal of effort.\u201cYou cannot do it simply by advertising it with, posters.You must visit the people, talk with the barn owners; only in this way can you be sure of a good turnout.\u201d Harness racing has changed through the years.Speeds have increased.In 1826, one horse trotted a mile in 2 min, 43 seconds.Twenty years later they ran the mile in 1 minute, 56% sec.Now the record stands at 1 min.54 and 4/5 sec.At one time the racing was done for \u2018marks\u2019 (a particular speed range); this system, however, was not feasible.Now racing is done for money.In conclusion, Mr.Larocque again urged sportsmen to encourage the rising generation and stimulate their interest in harness racing.Horse racing, he said has been very truly regarded as \u201cthe sport of kings.\u201d HUNTINGDON, QUE., WEDNESDAY.FEBRUARY 1st.1950 il 7 \u2014\u2014ge Architects Drawing of New Roman Catholi¢

Scroll Can Be Opened CAMBRIDGE, Mass, \u2014 Harvard scientists said they can safely open a 2,000-year old leather scroll believed to contain the oldest Old Testament text in existence.Prof.John Coolidge, director of the University's Fogg Art Museum, added that it will take six months to complete the job of unrolling the so-called \u201cFourth Dead Sea Scroll.\u201d It was studied for two days before the decision was reached.The brown and brittle leather of the scroll's surface gives the appearance of a huge dried cigar.It is believed to be the book of La- mech, Noah's father.Biblical scholars think the book may give an account of Noah's early life and his preparations for the flood.The scroll is one of four discovered in 1947 by a goatherder on the shores of the Dead Sea and brought to the United States by Athanasius Y.Samuel, Syrian Orthodox Metropolitan (Archbishop) of Jerusalem and Hashemite Jordan.The other three were well-pre- served.They were found to contain a complete text of the Book of Isaiah in Hebrew \u2014 described by Harvard as the most ancient copy of a book of the Old Testament ever discovered.The fourth scroll is written in Aramaic, che language spoken in Judea at the time of Jesus.Rutherford J.Gettens, chief of the Museum'\u2019s technical research, will undertake the task of opening it.Mr.Gettens is a nephew of Mrs.John Rutherford, of Hemmingford, Que.and is very well known in that locality.Fire Destroys Garage and Granary Total Loss on Farm Of D.R.Watson A fire occurring about noon on Monday completely destroyed the garage and granary of Mr.D.R.Watson.Mr.Watson, who lives on the Sherry farm on Connaught Road, reported that the fire started about lunch time and minutes later the garage and granary were engulfed in flames.Despite the attempts to put it out, the fire was beyond control and within half an hour the buildings were reduced to a smouldering ruin.Unfortunately the Huntingdon Fire Department is not normally available to residents in this district and little could be done to combat the blaze; a hose owned by Mr.Watson proved useless and the strong west wind made it impossible to save either the gar- rage or the granary.A car and 200 bushels of oats were completely destroyed.Fortunately the house nearby was untouched; in this respect the wind proved advantageous.At all events Mr, Watson expressed his gratitude for the help and consideration of his neighbours who tried to be of assistance.Repair and Redecoration Planned For St.Andrews An important meeting of the congregation of St.Andrew's Church took place on Tuesday, when a number of officers were appointed and various aspects of the church were discussed.Afterwards, members attended an oyster supper sponsored by the

arena with arti- ficinl ice for winter sports and an all-round community centre which will undoubtedly attract residents throughout the district and for miles around.A civic center and war memorial is a project deserving the support of everyone.During the meeting on Thursday, tentative plans were made for the celebration itself and the events to take place; but most of the discus- ston centered about the building of the arena.The building committee is to be asked to draw up a suk- gested plan for the project.The size of the new civic center, the facilities it is to have, and the financing of the project are Items which are being carefully weighed and discussed.As previously stated, the celebration of \u201cOld Home Weck\" will take construction to the school board.It is expected that work

hand-grip, the process of development of curling stones added an iron ring and latterly a handle, either of which gave added efficiency in delivering the stones.\u2018 Following the inception of the Royal Caledonian Curling Club, limits were laid down for the size, shape and weight of the curling stones and thus the needed uniformity was secured.Not all types of stones were found suitable for the making of curling stones.In fact few possess all the desired qualities.The favoured rocks are Ailsa, tend.Social and Personal | Mrs.Robert Currie and daugh- Iter Patsy were guests of Mr.and
