advantages under the proposed hog marketing scheme by kenneth m betzner president of the ontario federation of agriculture at a meeting of hog producers in new market town hall wednesday eight the scheme is being proposed under the farm products control act and in effect if given the re quired majority vote of two thirds of the hog producers will enable the producers to exerc greater con trol over their product in the matter of price and marketing hog pro ducers under the terms of the scheme anyone who raises hogs for marketing have until dec- 8 to send in their ballot first however the producer must register with w m cockburn york county agriculture representative in writing or in per son before he can vote mr betrner said thai the scheme was needed as a means to maintain the british market irregularity of supply cost us the market after the last war and threatens to cost us our present market now he said througn the hog marketing scheme it is hoped to provide a continuous flow of hogs overseas another incentive to the scheme was the need of the farmer for a guaranteed price for his product ne declared he pointed to recent strike action in packing plants iand saw that the wage increase sought by the packing house workers would have come out of ths farmers pockets the need to develon new markets has also had a part in inspiring the scheme mr betzer stated the farmer spends practic ally nothing to sell his product he declared the draft of the marketing scheme provides for a negotiating committee of producers to meet with processors to set prices i mr betzner pointing to theprice fluct uations that exist at present de clared that there was no reason for the farmer to have to gamble on the market as he does at present a floor price on hogs can be set here just as it is in australia he said also included in the draft is pro vision for thepaymentioftwoicents a hog by the producer towardsithe costs of the scheme nrovisioni for the- licensing of buyers processors and truckers the scheme will have provincial wide jurisdiction over the marketing of hogs if carried mr betzner was asked whether or not if the scheme was accepted producer would be told how many hogs he must produce the hog producers association has no intentiom of doing that he said there is afluctuation in produc- tion from winter to summer i and there might be a regulation injthis respect in order- to provide ai regu lar flow of hoes to the market question would- the price be the same all over the province answer yes- except for a slight differential in regards to distance question whv should there be fluctuations hvprice answer your guess is as good as mine the processors have a floor price and a coiling price there is no reason for it question what if the small butcher wanted- to pay more in order to get hogs answer- there isno here no- ceiling there will be no interference with existing market ing anangtments question wliat if packers would not pay the price answer it would- be a good thing the farmers would get mad enough to build their own packing house question how will floor price be based answer floor nrice will be based on quality nroduct the

values sa while it may be quite an easy matter to fool the poultryman on nutritional value remember the hen will always tell the yardstick by which to measure the value of an egg mash is notthe price
