Hog prices are:expected to re- main on the plateau until at least late summer next year in the United States with Canadian prices following suit. Good prices and markets for cattle are expected to extend through 1966 and 1967 and pos- sibly into 1968, according to one official projection, barring un- foreseen circumstances. Total U.S. beef supplies for the next three years will likely be lower than in 1964 and 1965. This factor should keep prices up or increase them on North American markets. The down- turn arrived after years of cat- tle supply increases. RECORD EXPECTED Canadian beef production this year is expected to be a record 1,426,000,000 pounds, a 10-per- cent increase from 1964. Per| capita consumption should be} substantially more than the 1964 level of 78.7 pounds. Mutton and lamb production fell off sharply this year. Pork production was off a shade. Sheep numbers are expected to decline further from a 1965 drop with a consequent reduction in wool production. Wool prices, however, should hold steady next year. Federal experts prepared out- Newlyweds Honored By Friends, Kin BLACKSTOCK (TC) --Mr. and Mrs. Harry Degeer, nee June Cowling, were honored by a large gathering of friends and relatives at a social eve- ning and shower in the recrea- tion centre.

Flett and = family, Bowmanville; Mr. and Mrs. Mervyn Graham Mr. and Mrs. Ed. Harris and family. The WA of St. John's Angli- ean Church will hold a Christ- mas Service for children Dec. 23. Members were told finan- cial obligations for the year have been met. Sixteen members of the Town and Country Club met Sunday afternoon for dessert and cof- fee at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Swain. Later the members heard the address on Angola by Rev. Whitney Dal- rymple at King Street United Church, Oshawa. Fifty area men were guests of the Rotary Club of Bowman- ville at its Rural-Urban Meet- ing in the Recreation Centre. Rev.

Home-Based Decorations BROOKLIN (TC) -- A-demon- stration by Mrs. Clarence Tink, of Hampton, of the making of) Christmas decorations from ar-} ticles most people have in their homes, was a feature of the De-| cember meeting of the Brooklin Horticultural Society. A large! number attended. The winners of the Ciranes! Show, judged by Mrs. boca were: Christmas Corsage, Mrs. A. C McCulloch, Mrs. D. Hamer and and family,|. look reports for the conference attended by provincial officials and observers from several for- eign embassies, including those of Japan and Russia, two big customers for Canadian wheat. Farm organizations also were represented, The experts estimated Can- ada's wheat exports would level off at an average of 400,000,000 to 500,000,000 bushels annually until 1970. This would be a new high plateau compared prith the 1950s. The cheddar cheese industry, according to one official, will have one of its best years in 1965. Production rose four per cent to 150,000,000 pounds. Higher prices apparently had no adverse effect on consumption. A small market growth is ex- pected in 1966. Production of evaporated milk fell off this year in line with a continuing decrease in domestic consumption. By HAROLD MORRISON Canadian Press Staff Writer The world's reaction to Charles de Gaulle's failure to win re-election on the first bal- lot is in effect an indictment of a policy that shrouded a basic weakness of French politics. Seven years of de Gaullg's rule produced no "body blow that could destroy the hard core of communism in France. Seeking an acceptable reason and a scapegoat for the voting shock, de Gaulle's cabinet con- Russia, particularly, and China are seen'as big buyers. One official warned, however, that it cannot be assumed the Communist bloc demand will hold up indefinitely. RECEIPTS REACH PEAK Total farm cash receipts were expected to fall off this year, but instead reached a new peak of $3,600,000,000. and are ex- pected to go higher next year. But net income figures, al- though higher than 1964, were just short of the record years) of 1951 and 1952, The year closed with high egg) prices. But officials feel this may spur many producers to in- crease chick output, raising the possibility of over-production of eggs late in 1966. Poultry production in 1965 is expected to reach a record 687,- 000,000 pounds, five per cent higher than the high set last year. Turkey production is up about 13 per cent but the domes- tice market should absorb the increase. Turkey consumption in 1964 amounted to 8.7 pounds per cap- ita, the highest in the world.) This year it could surpass 10) pounds a person. Poultry is un- dergoing a "higher consumption pattern" as more chicken and) turkey are sold as specialty meats. | DEMAND BEATS SUPPLY | In the dairy industry, butter consumption in 1966 is expected to outrun production for the) third consecutive year. Per cap-| ita consumption next year is ex- | pected to drop slightly. Milk production is expected to go up in 1966 because of an in-| crease in the output per cow. Number of dairy cattle is de- clining. | | NAMATH FAILS PHYSICAL | BEAVER FALLS, Pa. (AP) Quarterback Joe Namath of New York Jets has been clas-| sified 4-F by the local draft} board.

They are: Pretty 'Maxine Morris, | blonde and 18, who calls her- self a witch. Alexander Sanders, 39, the high priest of three covens, which are assemblies of witches. Insisting that he's a witch-- not a warlock--Sanders said that in old England, witch meant either a male or fe- male. With Paul King, 22, a coven member officiating, Maxine and Sanders were married Tuesday at the home of an- other witch. Maxine wore a figure-cling- ing white silk robe--and said that was all. Incense burned as the cou- ple stepped into a white rope circle surrounded by gleam- ing black candles. They knelt before an altar in the living room. A pair of witches in hooded robes bound Maxine's and Al- exander's arms together. King made small cuts in their arms -- to mix their blood. - After that the bridegroom slip a ring on the bride's fiager}) They were then toasted in red wine. Sanders said the witchcraft ceremony "'is the oldest wed- ding ceremony in the world-- far older than any church wedding." Asked about his witch tivities, ers: "Our covens operate in Manchester and North Ches- hire. We perform all our cere- monies -- when weather per- mits--naked, but there are no orgies." Maxine told reporters: '"'We are very much in love.

But the results, as the world's news- papers say it, only delivered a snowing of almost 32 per cent of the votes cast against 45 per cent for de Gaulle. Mitterrand | |had the full support of the Com- munists, Socialists and Radical Socialists. The 1962 parliamen- tary elections showed that the Communists had the support of about 25 per cent of the voters. NO DECLINE SEEN ! There is nothing in the 1965; presidential battle to demon-| strate any major decline in the | left-wing status. French diplomats tend to dis- miss the Communist vote as 'traditional' and "always there, but ineffective." But it is| one reason for the Paris-Wash- | ington split that forced de) Gaulle to "go it alone" in the | nuclear field. For many years the U.S. re- fused to give France certain military nuclear equipment and access to certain nuclear sec- rets, fearing this knowledge and equipment might eventually fall into the hands of the Commun- \ists. j While it is 'unlikely that a Communist could win the Continential STEAM BATH blessing, but if we have a | child we shall probably have a registrar (civil) ceremony for the sake of our child." They said they hoped to ap- | pear together at a full moon service tonight in nearby Al- | derley Edge, a wooded area where the Romans used to worship. Witches, they explained, don't have honeymoons. 2 2 ¢ 2 rates je a ee A Se A BN @ Finest Furniture @ Crystal Chandeliers Lamps, etc. @ Spanish Imports @ Oil Paintings -- Mirrors Custom-made drapes -- broadioom -- full decorator service.
