tuner garding hogs said Mr Newton was the determined effort shown by the western producers to do away with the system of rail grading this is grading of hogs after they have been slaughtered and hung on the rails in the pack ing plants Western Canada has market for its pigs in the Uni ted States or will have when the embargo is lifted and in selling to the US the animals do not re quire to be graded as the bugs are marketed at live weight They want similar method to operate NEWTON for the home market selling by live weight alone The position so far as Eastern Canada is concerned is that there is noesuchAmerican market and the Canadian gproductr would be marketed in the US as nished product In order to gain foot hold in the American market the Eastern Canada producers have to put up quality product and this is achieved through the grading system Mr Newton explained that con siderable concern had been ex pressed during their discussions Turn to page two please cgotc Annual Dinner
