7J Farm Report A A WALL Representative for York Region Newmarket By A A Will There has been more action in milk marketing in the last months than in any previous fire or six years put together Its good to see how the system adjusted to a serious oversupply and to think about what happens next annual meeting for milk producers this Thursday night Feb will have a full discussion on the events of and future plans The new chairman of the Marketing Board Ken will be the main speaker and all dairymen should be there A right now on marketing is that milk shipments should be matched against market share quota and quota borrowed or lent to make them come out even The cutoff date for moving quota is Feb 28 Cream producers should check too and if short cream quota can now be purchased from the board at 20 cents a pound Another good day coming up for dairymen is on practical things The date is Wed Feb and it starts at John Vinks farm at John has a high producing herd and has installed the new mole hill system for moving and handling manure The second part of the program is at Humbervale Inn with dairy specialist Bob Lang Bob has lots of experience with dairy cattle and it should be a

support level for is per hundred Payments will be made in any when the average market price falls below this level It will be si si for cattle sold January to March no payment for April to June for cattle slaughtered July to September and the exact price hasnt been worked out yet for the last quarter Statements from commission firms or packers nave to go in with the application which we expect to have at the office in Newmarket in a week or two This payment of two or three cents on only some of the cattle seems rather small when it brings returns up to only cents with our cost figures now coming to cents for direct expenses and another 11 cents for overhead However it is still significant in a very slim year for beef producers On a different and very happy note our former senior

fields The cabbage crop is also down by about per cent with an estimated acreage of 17500 which should produce seven million crates Some fields were so severely damaged by tractors and wagons going through kneedeep mud that they will be cut over only once with the balance going to waste The carrot crop has not done any better as planting was delayed due to heavy rains which made growers change their plans and plant cotton and other non- vegetable crops instead Predictions are that the acres will produce million bushels of carrots which would be 23 per cent less than the winter crop The Texas winter vegetable industry has seen quite a few major changes since the late 50s when the federal program put severe restrictions on who employed Mexican nationals The direction has been to growing crops which can be harvested mechanically although many crops including onions are still harvested mainly by hand Growing costs have also gone up in recent years For cabbage this figure is now over per acre including growing harvesting land machinery and market costs A break even price per 50 pound carton of cabbage is In the meantime carrot harvesting goes on every day with about 100
