The Packing Plants of Ontario, which process and ship your livestock for - export, ARE SERIOUSLY SHORT OF MEN. Every available Farmer : of Ontario is urged to offer his services for employment in one of the Packing Plants in this province as soon as the essential work of the farm is completed. OVER 1,000 men are required to start in - the month of September alone. Good hourly wages will bé paid. Transportation to the plant will be provided. Assistance will be given in arranging board and room. : With full staffs, the Packing Plants of Canada have ample capacity I to handle even the tremendously increased numbers of cattle, sheep and swine, which Canadian farmers have ready for market this year. When operating to capacity the Packing Plants can keep the market : cleared and livestock can be slaughtered, processed and shipped at ~ its most profitable time, when it is at its market peak. Thus, losses which occur when animals are held beyond the peak -- through additional :feeding costs, through falling away from peak condition - and through-the danger to price struc : demand --are avoided. Last year several hundred Ontario farmers volunteered for work in the plants in processing their own products and protecting their own interests. Production for export this year has increased Available man-power has shrunk by 28%. The Ontario Farm Service Force, in conjunction with Employment and Selective Service has undertaken the task of raising sufficient help from Ontario Farmers to keep Packing Plants operating to capacity this year. This department of the Ontario government's Department of Agriculture feels that this extension of its service is as vitally important to the interests of the farmers of this prov- ince as anything it has yet undertaken.
