V .... During 1 `' convince Canadian " should become part of the system of protection. The same thing is now hap- pening again. Unfortunately the ar- guments have dealt only in general- ities, which mean nothing. It is useless and dishonest to quote impressive figures showing the totals of agricul- tural imports into Canada and to infer that the Canadian farmers would be benefited by a protective tariff on these. By .far the greater part of these -are products, such as rubber and cot- ton. which cannot, under any'condi- ~tions. be produced in Canada and a tariff on which would injure the farmer quite as much as anyone else. The Canadian farmer. in his main lines of production, is a large. exporter. Have those from Mr. Meighen down, who have been telling the `farmers that they would benefit by protection of their products, any system by which the producers are to be enabled to exact . a higher price for that portion consum- ed in Canada than they receive for that portion which of necessity is exported? If they have. it is time the Canadian public should be informed of the scheme in all its details. said the speak- er. By far the most important single item- of Canadian farm production is wheat. For the five-year period ending in 1922. the average annual production ` was 269.000,000 bushels. Our average annual consumption is in the neighbor- hood of 40,000,000 bushels. leaving well over 200.000,000 bushels to find its outlet in the `markets of the world. Under these conditions is there any conceivableway in which a tariff on A wheat may be used to raise the price in Canada? Mustpwe not of ecessity. leave the wheat grower ou of any scheme of protection for the farmer? Next to wheat. the farmers of Can- ada rely. for the greater part of their income, on the productions of the live- stock industry and dairy products and meat animals. In the year 1924, _a fair average year, milk and milk products were exported to the value of $39,152.- 862 and imported only to $1,284,151. leaving a net export of $37,868,711. Of meats and live animals. the net export was $26,000,000. The Canadian live stock producer, like the producer of wheat, relies on the, export` market, which controls the price he receives. A tariff on these products would be of no value whatever in raising prices.` Turning to the minor products of Canadian agriculture. in most cases_ a similar condition prevails. The grow- ers of clover seed, for instance, cannot expect any system of protection to benefit them, the imports being less than one-sixth of the exports. The same thing applies to app1es,'potatoes, peas and other grains. If the price of the exportablesurplus governs the price of .the whole, `it follows that, in the items referred to. tariff protection is an impossibility. Even if duties were imposed high enough to prevent importation alto- gether (and protection carkgo no fur- ther) * the situation would remain prac- tically unchanged. There would still be a large exportable surplus.` So `far - as can be seen, there are only two ways injwhich the farmers could possibly take advantage of a_protective tariff on these commodities: by the formation of an air-tight combine to absolutely control prices in Canada, or by so re- ducing production as to`. have no ex- _ portable surplus.f. The first of these "measures would be a crime; the second . would be suicide. . Vhoun H-arr-In -hnwnverx constitute would be sulcme. _ These items, `however. constitute more than nine-tenths of the total farm production `of Canada. from which it 'nnnst be clear that no syste of pro- `mu t be clear no productlon or Uanaua. 1:-um Wluuu .. 1 Value to tec on can be of very genera Canadian farmers. Turningto a consideration of farm products where importspexceeded ex- ports, the speaker pointed out that manufacturing plants are not capable of adaptation to meet sudden changes in public` demands, whereas farms are all capable of diversified production. And while -a certain` farm may be de- voted to specialized production, this does not alter the fact that the farm is organized to produce -in varied lines` and can quickly change to take advan- I tage of. price increases. Farm produc- tion is sensitive to price fluctuations and is always adjusting itself to de-` mand; Hence the prices of even `those products of which imports -exceed the exports, are determined by the prices of exportable products. It follows there- fore that no section of agriculture can be benefited to any appreciable extent by a protective tariff. - . re 9 tariff were nut on ezzs itiwould protective ta:-11:1.
