Timcs commented editorially show due cun sideration for the hogproducing farmers The producers had asked for floor of $23 hundred grade Bl Winnipeg basis The announced floor is equivalent of $2450 Win nipeg considerable difference between the request price and that given One of the main concerns of those who have the welfare of both the farmers and the public in general at heart at this time would be that the resulting controversy is not allowedto throw the farming industry off balance natural result would be to discourage hog raiscrs right out of the busi ness The situation can be overstressed And many farmers can be scared out of what is actually profitable business And with this we concur The SunTirmrs continues our main actually our only real reason for saying the announced floor price is un falr is the fact that in making the announce merit Ottawa officials stated that floor price is approximately what is being received at the present time And even the housewife admits that pork is really cheap today an amazing situation in this era of extremely CH 17 952 Editorial Notes would rather have plain coffin without flower funeral without eulogy than life without the sweetness of love

most are shodihg very definite signs of presper lty situation which We by no means he grudge the farmers but rather rejoice in it with them We quite realize for instance that the rural standard of living was far inferior to that in towns and city for far too many years We are most happy to see that that situation has now been largely overcome True some city homes still have modern con veniences

the price is still high so high that most 91 us are still eating perk or some other beef substitute We would suggest that with floor price on hogs the farmers should be willingtoacceptceillng prices
