attention frank mccallum is that man and his whole life story is a record of achievement in the true canadian tradition born in toronto 46 years ago frank sold papers after school and took an early interest in athletics at the age of 15 he was farming with his father in southern alberta and when drought hit the province he worked with pick and shovel in an alberta coal mine later he work ed in lumber camps and on a con struction gang he finally came back to ontario and became a general motors employee in 192s canadians love a good sport and frank first made his mark in oshawa by organizing and playing baseball and other city sports likei the average canadian he had plenty of ambition and in 1932 he founded his own transport business that was one of the bad depres sion years but depression never shook frank mccallums faith in canada as a result of that faith he today operates one of the largest automobile transport firms in on tario and a firm incidentally which enjoys managementemployee rela tions unexcelled in the industrial city of oshawa too young for the first world war frank made a solid contribution to the second when he organized a fast- moving service that

never far from their ears as they till the soil in odd moments sandwiched in between busy periods of the day when hey are catching or curing their fish bona fide farmers who produce agricultural commodities for sale are comparatively few and far be tween although they have been on the increase during recent years of the two the fisherman farmer is the more important to the over all economy of the province work ing his small holding about a mile in back or inland from his fish ing stages the average fisherman even with his small cash income can enjoy a diet equal to the aver age canadian town dweller by rea son of the vegetables eggs milk etc which he is able to produce value of this production cannot be assessed properly but were it suddenly to cease its absence would be felt keenly and it is because of this parttime farming that new foundlands standard of living has been kept up to its present level problems of fulltime fanner but it is fulltime farming that attracts most public attention and which provides most headaches this kind of production suffers from a variety of faults some of which cannot be controlled and others which are being battled ener getically the moist cool climate limits farmers to production of hay and pasture crops and commoner types of vegetables such as potatoes tur nips and cabbage this is all right so far as the fishermanfarmer is concerned but it doesnt help the fulltime man where arable soil is found it is usually in small patches which are hard and costly to clear a five- acre farm is reckoned to be large although there are one or two farms 10 times that size there are 700000 acres of new foundland that can be tilled accord ing to government soil analysts but only 3 per cent of this is first class and 30 per cent is second class generally speaking most soils found in newfoundland are rocky rough and low in fertility but in practice they are not too difficult to work and respond to good methods of fertili zation and tillage these things have discouraged in terest in farming which was never very high due to the large part played by the fishing industry in newfoundland life recent figures released by the newfoundland labor relations office give the number of persons engaged in farming as 10- 000 and agricultural officials con sider that the number of farm units which provide fulltime employ ment is about 1200 main farming sections of new foundland are in areas of st johns eastport bonavista bay humber valley stephenville port au port st georges bay and the codroy valley of these the last four are on the west coast and they are the islands main farming centres it is in these areas that the greater part of the total 134000 acres suitable for agriculture is located need technical knowledge another thing which regards new foundlands agriculture is general lack of farming skill there is a serious lack of technical knowledge and few farmers recognize the need of advanced skill in carrying on farm operation not only does this retard operations for obvious rea sons but it also tends to restrict farming to small farms with cor respondingly small production and income finally greatest fault of all in newfoundlands farming operations is almost complete lack of organiza tion in connection with marketing farm produce combined result of all these things is that agricultural produce grown in newfoundland cannot pos sibly fill needs of all consumers consequently a great deal of the provinces requirements have to be shipped in from the mainland of eastern canada chiefly from prince edward island because of union and the removal of tariff walls the flow of produce from pei is ex pected to increase and because of lack of market facilities on the part of newfoundland farmers this is
