TEA RATIONING NOT BEING CONSIDBSIiED Reports that the rationing of tea !ind coffee is being considered at the pre.sent time have been denied by the Wartime Prices and Trade Beard re- gional offices' in London. The an- nouncement was made following ru- mors current in some parts of the V/cstcn; Ontario region. F.osti-ictions limiting the atnouht of sugar to be served with beverages are still in ef- fect. No extm sugar is provided for a second serving of tea' of coffee in a public eating place and the serving for tlie first cup is limited to three lumps or two teaspooaful. The sup- ply of cream is also limited, so that the second serving of tea or coffee must be "clear"'- or milk may be sub- stituted for cream. , '; SURPLUS HAY MAY BlB - COMMANlDEERED Fa<;ing an immediate need to get hay into districts of Ontario and Que- bec >vhere there are .serious shortages the XVartime Prices Si Trade Board is prepi^red "if necessary to command- e^ryopplies from available sui-pluses" in other parts of the two provinces. According to . a statement issued by Board chairman, Donald Gordon, ihi;re are serious shortages in some areas of Ontario and Quebec with surpluses reported in other areas. Board officials state that the sources of available supplies are known to the Board and necessary action will be t>aJ(en to speed up shipments if supply is not forthcoming. It is un- likely that export permits will be is- sued, for it is the (attitude of the Board "that the first obligation on domestic supply is to meet domestic -equirements. "You know, my dear," he observ- ed, looking up from his book, "when rne reads of the stupendous happen- ings in nature one realizes how low- ly and insignificant is man." "A woman doesn't have to read books to learn that" replied his wife. Speak up. North Grey, for ALITY OF SERVICE AND SACRIFICE AND A FAIR DEAL TO THE FARMER You spoke up before, when 87 out of every 100 of you voted in the plebiscite to clear the road for equality of service and sacrifice. You wanted it and you said "yes," but Mr. King's government ignored you with his half-measures in support of the armed forces. Now is your chance to say it again, with emphasis, by voting for Garfield Case â€" the one candidate in this election who insists that your wishes should be carried out. His is the only party with a clear and emphatic policy on reinforcements. Garfield Case is also the only candidate who backs up Bracken, the farmer leader, in his demand that agriculture should enjoy a larger, fairer share of the national income. And he is the one candidate who is a North Grey man, pledged to present your case at Ottawa. Elect Garfield Case â€" and let outsiders run for Parliament at home where they are known. "All those selected to serve in the Armed Forces should be available for service wherever required." â€" John Bracken and the Progressive Conservatives That plank was written into the Progressive Conservative platform at the party's inception in 1942. It is still there. Garfield Case is for it. He's against under-handed, coercive pressure. He's dead against attempting to fill the ranks of the Armed forces by unfair discrimination. He believes, with you North Grey electors, that it's long past time to call a halt to hedging half- measures and party expediency. He stands for all-out war to win all-out Victory â€" with service and sacrifice levied equally upon all. Garfield Case is with John Bracken all the way on this most vital issue. "The right of farmers ... to a fair share of the national income." â€" Jo/in Bracken and the Progressive Conservatives Garfield Case backs Bracken and the Progressive Conservative Party to the hilt on the urgent GARFIELD CASE necessity of correcting "Canada's greatest social inequity" â€" the inferior economic position of almost one-third of the country's population, engaged directly or indirectly in agriculture. It is the responsibility of the nation and the deter- mination of this party to "establish parity between farm prices and the cost of goods and services farmers must buy". North Grey farmers receive no fanfare of acclaim for their vital production achievements . . . no medals, no mention in despatches. Yet their quiet loyalty to the unremitting task is the basic mainstay of armed forces and civilian life alike. It isn't easy â€" especially under staggering short- ages of manpower and machinery â€" but North Grey farmers continue to meet the need. Such efforts, both in war and peace, are entitled to a better reward â€" a higher standard of living. Garfield Case's voice is raised with that of all Progressive Conservatives to this end. John Brarken has already outlined the 30-point pro- gram of the Party designed to assure a reasonable standard of living for farmers. Ask your local party headquarters for a copy of this Progressive Conservative commitment. Put one more member into the House at Ottawa to implement this program. Elect Garfield Case, pledged to fight for prosperity on the farm as well as in the city.

EGGS This year a Jieavy production of eggs is ^ain exi)ected and will be far greater than otirhorne market can aibs^rb. No doubt you all knqw that enormous quantities of eggs were exported to Great Britain last year in powder -form to con- serve shipping space. Now, the people of the British Isles would sooner have eggs in shell. Since this is our only available export market it is up to the producer and the shipper of eggs to give them the best possible product. Since it takes considerable time for transit, the duty of the producer is to use every means to keep the eggs clean and to market as frequently as possible. Our duty is to put the eggs in the .• best possible containers to assure clean and safe arrival. Every egg has to be stamped by us ^ith the word "CANADA" in order that its source will be known. In this way a future market, jind we hope a permanent one, will be established for a good product.
