It seemed a miracle of production in comparison with even the increased production of other war years. Yet, this year over one and a quarter billion pounds were produced in the first six months. The total for this vear should reach over two billion pounds; an increase of 40 per cent over 1943. Now another problem confronts the farmerâ€"the growing demand for Canadian meat created by inâ€" vading Allied Armed Forces. and the starving millions of liberated countries, has encouraged the enâ€" terprising and patriotic Canadian Farmer to raise more and more live stock to fill both domestic and exâ€" port needs. The crop season of 1944 has been ::Lond any m the most diffiâ€" of all the farmer: still abundant field and orchard crops have been and are being successâ€" fully harvested and processed. ‘ Shortage of competent help has an problem to Caâ€" for most of the years. ile the situation has somewhat _ easier, ' organized efforts of both and proWncial governments, in enlisting and Kransporting stuâ€" dents and urban citizens to assist on farms in busy seasons, farmers and their families have toiled giâ€" gantically and come through magâ€" nificently, in producing essential foods for the nation in the past four years.

All offices of Emplovment and Selective Service will give full inâ€" formation, provide transportation, and place applicants in plants, Apâ€" plication should be made at the nearest local Selective Service office. Ontario Farmers are urged to protect their own interests by beâ€" coming employed, at good hourly wages, in any one of Ontario‘s 13 plants. Transportation will be paid and assistance given in procuring living accommodations, By doing so, the farmer profits in two ways; he protects and helps maintain both a very desirable price level for his live stock and a future marâ€" ket that can mean manyv thousands of dollars to him, and he gets well paid while doing so. So Canadian Farmers are faced with the problem of devoting as much time as possible this Fall and Winter, in working in Packing Plants. No other source of manâ€" power can produce the required number of men, More significant | still, if live stock is produced faster than it can be marketed, a surplus is bound to occur, When supply threatens to be greuter than demand, the present lesirable and profitable price strucâ€" tureâ€"and even the "floor" priceâ€" becomes endangered. Again, any failure to meet quotas would imâ€" peril the excellent connections made in the export market and hopes for maintaining a desirable portion with a return to normaley. these tremendously increased reâ€" quirements.
