SINGLE CO.MB WHITE LEGHORN EGGS FOR HATCHING Tsm n mt mm o M asvancb Agricultural Board Presents Its Report A proposal for creation of a Na- tional Export Marketing Commission constitutes the main recommendation of a rsport tabled in the Legislature by Hon. Dr. Jamieson, chairman of the special agricultural inquiry com- mittee which was appointed at last session of the House and lias been busy most of the time during the re- cess. The other members ari Messrs. Thompson it Lanark, Trewartha of South Huron, Black of Addington, Keith of North York, MacBride of Brantford, and Lethbridge of West Middlesex. The committee held 54 meetings throughout the province-, al- so conferences with representatives of the railways^ manufacturers, re- tail, wholesale, and labor organiza- tions, and authorities on economic and social conditions, and accom- plished a survey of farming condi- tions in Ontario by questionnaires sent to Wardens, Township Ck|rks, and agriculturists. The report tabled in the House reviews all branches of Ontario agri- cultural production and outlines a national marketing scheme for the exportable surplus of this produc- tion. Some of the complaints receiv- ed at the sessions held have already lesulted in the removal of grievances. The committee was able to obtain substantial reduction of feed charges at the cattle markets, improvements in handling of last season's fruit crop by the railways, improved ac- commodation for stock and express, at different railway points, to bring co-operation between the Federal de- partments and the railway for bett- er shipping facilities in Northern Ontario. At the present time, the committee is continuing efforts to obtain better rates on agricultural limestone; on feeder cattle from the West to Ontario; on seed potatoes from north-western Ontario; restora- tion of settlers' rates to Districts of Kenora, Rainy River and Thunder Bay. The committee recommends that the National Weeds Act be revised, and that new legislation on this sub- ject include enforcement by the De- partment of Agriculture. The com- mittee also suggests a strong prov- ince-wide campaign to combat weeds with the co-operation of councils schools, agricultural repi esentatives', a:id organizations of various kinds. The committee recommends estab- lishment of a station in the East;irn district to test cultivation of profit- able varieties of apples for that sec- tion of the province, and also recom- mends that experts be appointed to assist agricultural representativeis in large apple-growing counties. In the interests of Canadian far- mers and consumers, the committee recommends that bacon from United States hogs sold in Canada or abroad be plainly marked to indicate to the consumer that it is the "product of United States hogs." The committee recommends that the Ontario Govt, strongly urge upon the Dominion Govt, full considera- tion of the interest and requirenuint ofOntario shippers in whatever fed- eral policy may be decided upon to obtain reduction of ocean rates. In regard to the marketing pro- posal, the report explains that "to make a National Export Marketing Commission representative of co-op- DEPENDABLE Auctioneer Service When an auctioneer travels over more than one section of the County he can make you a better sale because the scope of acquaintance and confi- dence is correspondingly increased.

A central co-operative coun- cil representing all tha provinces is not only a feasible plan but it is already an accomplished fact. The Canadian Council of Agriculture is an ertective agency in linking up the co-operative bodies of the different provinces and in realizing Dominion- wide uniform standards. Its repre- sentation in a National Export Mar- keting Commission would be a foi-- ward stride in co-operation, bringing Canadian agriculture to the thres- hold of a great future. The federal govcinraent sliould prepare to meet the province co-operatively linked up to furnish volume of export trade. In cheese and bacon, Ontario is the largest feeder of the Montreal agen- cies operating the present export system. Rates are imposed by New York unon Canadian Government ships which e.xert no beneficial in- fluence upon Canadian trade or upon the problem of ocean transport. "In the opinion of this committee the government of Ontario should immediately endeavor to obtain co- operation of the Dominion and other Proviueial governments to meet any British plan of buying the export surpluses. .Action in Canada should be emtrusted to a National Export Marketing Commission on which the federal and provincial governments, co-operative organizations and manu- facturing interests would have repre- sentation." The committee found the rural sections of Old Ontario insistent in their demands for electric service. While appreciating the sympathetic attitude of the government, and the measui-es of assistance already givsm, towards rural distribution, the feel- ing is general that nothing would have a greater tendency to make rural life more attractive and pro- fitable than more general distribu- tion of electric light and power on the farm. The committee recom- mends that the government pursue as vigorous a policy as possible in seeking to effect a more general use of electric light and power in the rural districts of the nrovince."

Place the hen where no others disturb her. | 2. Box 12in. square and Bin. deep, ' in which is placed an overturned sod or some earth, making sure all com- ers are filled so the eggs cannot roll out.
