'The shortage of tank cars is slowing up solution deliveries. PPhosphates-- Superphosphate is in « tight position due to the shortage of sulphuric acid. Superphosphate manufacturers may not be able to honour their contracts in full so this material may be soon in short supply. Potash--Is all imported from the United States and Europe. Stocks are not plentiful but there is no ap- parent shortage. The shortage of hox ears and boat bottoms is slowing up deliveries. The Prairie Provinces which use (11-18) ammonium phosphate cannot expect any large tonnage increase as supplieis are limited. a AN WARNING TO MOTORISTS Motorists who may be involved in an accident "which brings live -wires tumbling about their cars, are advised by Wills Maclachlan, of the Electrical Employers Association of Ontario, to sit and await rescue rather than at- tempt to leave their vehicle and risk death by electrocution.

E. Noble who also sits as an alderman on Oshawa City Council. The resolution, presumably phrased Mr. Noble on instructions of his council, reads: "Whereas the Township of East Whithy has on thig date, February 4, 1951 engaged W. E, Noble, former Reeve, as their Clerk and Tax Col- lector; and whereas this engagement became expedient due to several fac- as follows: N I. Under annexation, the major pox- tion of the Township of East. Whitby became a part of the City of Qshawa on the first of January, 1951, and the Township suffered the loss of tye!

WE DELIVER--PHONE 91 FOR SERVICE Farm Forums INTEREST IN FARM FORUMS INCREASING IN ONTARIO CO. Ontario County has increased the number of Farm Forums to fourteen. Clare Burt, Provincial Secretary, was the speaker at a Rally in Greenbank Hall, Wednesday, March 7th, renew- ing contact with the older groups and welcoming the newly forums. The Farm Radio. Forum program in Ontario County brings about 250 farm people together in fourteen organized listen to the same broadeast and dis- cuss the same questions as other groups across thé Dominion. The answers are as diversified as the thoughts of the rural people but show a solidarity of opinion on important points. When discussinng the question of Marketing Boards, it was agreed-that farmers = should have Marketing Boards that would give them control over their products until, they reach the. consumer. Under present legis- lation this is not possible. South Leaskdale Forum voiced the opinion of the majority when they said; "Na- ture has her own way of controlling production--acreage control does not always mean production control." An- other Forum stated, "After all a farm- er doesn't pick young stock off trees. It takes time for them to reach ifia- turity." Half the Forums doubt that there is a crisis at the present time which warrants prieetontrols. However, in the event of an all-out war the ma- jority want price controls on all com- modities because at the present time the costs of feed and farm machinery are higher than the produce the farmer sells. The discussion of Kebr uary 19th showed the keen -interest and support Farm Forum groups are giving the Junior Farmers, Federation of Agri- culture, Hog Producers, Cream Pro- ducers and Milk Producers. They have great faith in the future of the International Federation of Agricul | ture Producers." The Forum people belive it will be possible some day to distribute the produce of the world through LF.A.P. and so maintain peace, Forum Projects During the season Mr, and Mrs. I. and Mrs. Russel Rodd of the Bethesda Reach Forum were active in organiz- ing new groups. The new forums are at Vroomanton, Scugog lead, Fifth Line Manchester, and' Greenbank. The Gamebridge Forum was reorganized this year. Fosters Forum's project was a contribution to the March of Dimes, On Review Nights, every four weeks Greenwood Farm Forum meets with the Pickering Federation of Agricul- groups each Monday evening. Aly County. = An cnergetic committee, with support from the South Ontario Federation of Agriculture, has placed the facts before the people of the County and they hope it will result in the formation of this much-needed service for Ontario County. ~~ Popular Insurance Agent Passes Suddenly .
