in livestock I have read with deep concern that item on your editorial page intimating that according to the experts our cattle numbers are not keep ing pace with the increase in Canadas population From my grassroots angle every Cana dian has a nutritional not to speak of a pocketbook relation ship to this trend We are hearing plenty about soil conservation and the need for better farming practice also fairer prices and steadier if the nations are to win the global battle against HUNGER On the other hand it seems to me that too many Canadians particular ly among the folks who live and work in the towns and cities are busy following the will the wisp of easy money and working as little as possible for as many dollars as possible So as one of the bank leaders point ed out the other day and very much on the target I think We should not be surprised if the dollar works less and less for us- For the benefit of those urban Canadians who arc straining to save 25000000 a year on a variety of substitutes for the dairy farmers products and to heck with the basic dairylive stock economy I beg the privi lege of bringing the following wise thoughts from my farm journal to the attention of your readers in town and country Livestock farming has been found to provide the least drain on soil richness because less plant food is exported in animal products than when crops are sold off the farm and a greater portion of fertility is retained in the form of manures However livestock raise other problems Regular and adequate supplies of by experiment in India that health and disease are the re sult of the quality of the food eaten He produced at will al most any disease he desired sim ply by varying the diet of the rats with which he was experi menting There- are two inter esting ways of judging the qual ity of crops grown for animal feed A deficiency in soil nutri ment may affect the plant by limiting its growth or it may be a deficiency in some mineral which is not needed by the plant but should be passed on by it to the animal Pasture for live stock belongs on good soil not any old goodfornothingelse corner of the farm It should be seeded to productive grasses and legumes fertilized to maintain high yields and managed so that the herbage is grazed uni formly The good pasture should have several types in its make up permanent rotational and temporary

EASTER MUSIC FEDERATION GRANT The editor Your report of the grant made to the Federa tion of Agriculture by the East council is rather misleading and unless corrected cannot hut damage the prestige of the local Federation This grant will not be used in support of the Federation of Agriculture in the township but will go to head office to support the provincial budget The Federation is so short of money that it cannot retain the legal services required to give the farmers the protection they need in the market and until the time arrives when sufficient funds become available will continue at the mercy of specu lator and broker J Those who attended the meet- certain minerals in the diet of at Sharon March learned animals are necessary if they are to grow and produce and re main healthy Some such as calcium and phosphorus are re quired in considerable amounts to provide for proper bone de velopment Others such as copper and cobalt are equally necessary though in much smal ler quantities Common sense tells us that dairy or meat pro ducts from rundown pastures locking in these minerals can not possibly have the nourishing values of similar products from wellbred and healthy animals reared on balanced nutritious forage and pastures Sir Robert show- the guest sneaker Lloyd Jasper that as a result of Fed eration activity the farmers of East Gwillimbury benefitted far in

Newspaper headlines can easily create a misconception of plan ning The reason is that in many urban areas the spectacular aspects of the program are in reality corrective measures made necessary by lack of planning The large sums spent to move is an accurate map showing not only streets but also topography and structures Such a map was developed in the most economical way possible that is by aerial photography This map together vith tracings taken from it have been in constant use and the ten tative zoning plan that will shortly be offered for criticism shows much basic data all of which was taken from the aerial map There are two fundamental ways in which planning can help keep expenses down The first is to provide where possible street patterns that permit yards w necessary obsolete
