Based on applications that have been received in Toronto for. the Program, there are stili a number of areas that seem to be of concern 10 producers in the province. Sorne producers stili ai-e under the understanding that they have to seli their caif Ibis faîl in order 10 qualify for the payrnent, if any is made, under the Stabilization Pro- gram. We xouid want to point out at this time that this is flot the case at ail as farmers do not bave 10 seil their calves at this lime, but rnay wish to keep tbem oni 10 fatten for slaughter cattie, use as herd replacemnents or wbatever the case may be. The average mnarket price will be determined at severai specific sales in the province. Again, when the announce- ment was made, some pro- ducers thought that ail calves would have to be sold tbrougb one of these main sales. Again, this is not correct, as only the sales inform-ation for determininig the average pýrice' of stocker' calves will b e coliected from these specific locations, but caives if sold by individual producers can be sold anywhere in the province of Ontario. We would point out that the average price for stocker calves in Ontario will be determined in the montbs of September, October and November, and we wouid suspect that sometime ai ter the end of November, the average price will be an- nounced and payment, if any, will be made sometime in late December.
