according to secretarymanager erie kitch en toronto this total has never been reached by the three previous setasides the nearest approach to this figure was in 1950 when 8344000 was realized sir kitchen pointed out that based on june 1052 milk production this years objec tive is just under so percent of the amount possible and represents an increase of 23 percent over the 1052 set- aside of s325000 discussing the need for a greater setaside o j w shugg director of publicity for the dairy farmers of can ada said that new abnormal conditions influencing the dairy industrys course at the present lime made it impera tive that both product adver- using and public relations programs be expanded to meet the new situation there must be a greater frequency of impact on the public and even a 100000 fund would be strained to do the job dairy producers re quire all dairy producers organizations must lend their supsort if the new objective was to be reached sir shugg said pioneering in this field he said they could expect some prob lems in the beginning but generally speaking progress is being made and prices have improved to producers a report was given concern ing the handling of strikes in packing plants it had been suggested that agriculture generally speaking should be declared an industry in the national interest and those engaged in the handling and processing of food would sac rifice the right to strike it was felt that this was a time ly recommendation against the time that railway employ ees or packing houses could upset the whole economy feed grain marketing

for fifty dollars to finance this the provincial police and the association are co operating in this problem and the police were present taking part in the panel discussion suggesting how the farmers could help by more positive identification of cattle and prompt reports of any loss the problem of veterinarians carrying disease by not disini fecting boots after visiting each stable was reported on

regulations all community sales arenas must have cement floors ah must be washed and dis infected after each sale all stock submitted for sale to be examined by a veterin arian all stock must lie registered in sales book to show who consigned the animal and who purchased this chiefly to deter rustlers recommendations regarding the care and feeding of rail shipped animals were made to the
