pedestrian as individuals in the prevention of highway accidents and to stress the safety value in driving and walking relaxed unexcited un emotional but always alert No accidents no fatalities in

By JOHN anodes Simone County Federation of Agriculture The Simcoe County Sheep Producers held their annual meeting in Stroud recently and heard Tisdale fonnerly general manager of the Cana dian Cooperative Wool Grow ers Association speak on the report of the Sheep industry Survey Committee The committee toured Can ads and parts of the United States talking with representa tives of sheep organizations and individual farmers and vis iting sheep farms in end prolt vince Following this study of the sheep industry the commit tee made number of recom mendations which will improve conditions for the producer NOT FULL TIME Sheep production in Ontario is not fulltime occupation and is regarded as minor livestock enterprise lts poten tial however exceeds that of most other classes of live stock Given adequate atten tion support and organization it would assumethe stature of major farm enterprise all Natural conditions in parts of the occupied areas of the province are well suited to sheep production In fact with the number of unoccupied acres being added to annually such lands can be best made revenue producing by being used for sheep production Products of the sheep industry meat and wool are in short supply in Can ada and will continue to be yvell into the future As gen eral observation the committee considered that current produc tion practices fail considerably and flock husbandry practices and adequate pasturemanage ment techniques SURVEYS MADE Stock yard surveys across Canada revealthet there exists great lack of uniformity in size type and

dont know that fresh dom estic lamb is higher quality product than frozen lamb As consumer of meat Canada rank high with per capita consumption of 142 lbs But only 27 lbs of this total is made up of lamb and mutton with one half or almost lbs consisting of imported product STABLE PRICES Stable prices for the pro duct are must to establish confidence in the industry and two government programs are in effect premium on qual ity is being paid with $200 per head for choice and $100 per head for good these to be rail graded Currently there is wool deficiency payment to sdtabilize the price of this
