purchasers were supposed to be bona fide farmers certified by the federation of agriculture because the farmers were more numerous than vehicles the sale was conduct ed by the drawing of lots for each type of truck and tractor jwhehthe sale began for the 15- cwtrucks there wss a rush to get applications in the ballot boxes the farmers- agreed that this type of vehicle could be put to good use on a farm they were a little dubious about purchasing the fa tractors because they werent sure what theyicouldbe used for however all were sold garage owners came from as far away as goderich with the idea of buying tractorsno be used as tow trucks some were disappointed wlienthey were informed that they could not qualify for a purchase several of these garage men dream ed up the idea of arranging v for

fourth in a series of comments by well- f i known authorities written ex- pressly for the weekly press of ontario during the past five years the production possibilities of canadas vast agricultural resources have been amply demonstrated to the whole world in response to a uni versal demand for food farm pro duction in this dominion has in creased to the point where 40 of the gross output must be marketed abroad in older to maintain a stable industry at home this increased production has addpd materially to the national income hence it is de sirable that it be maintained main taining it means

confionted with the difficult prob lem of coping with surpluses in a wellplanned economy atten- tion should be focused on those pioducts which have a special adaption to canadian conditions hogs rank high m the list of pro ducts that have a national signi ficance they form an integral part of the production pragram on 10- 000 ontario fai ms western farmers who still letain unhappy memories of the early 1930sand the uncer tainties associated with a onecrop system of fanning aie not likely to f oi sake hog pioduction entirely in the days to come if there as any merit in the old maxim one good turn deserves another canadas dosition in the british bacon market should be se- cure when the baltic countries were invaded canadian farmers met the challenge by pioducmg hogs in sufficient numbers to com pensate ifor a large portion of the deficit so cieated for this magnifil cent performance the people of butain are eternally grateful nevertheless they cannot be expecti ed to continue put chasing large quantities of our bacon unless it is as good as the product available elsewhere moreover it must be shipped to that market in regular quantities and not seasonally as in tbe past i canada lost the bntish market after the last war because her bacori was infeiioi to that supplied by most conipotitois vast improve stllllower than prewar danish quality may be through the use of better breeding stock feeding properly balanced v rations and marketing hogs at the most der sirable weight a number of can adian farmers are consistently marketing hogs grading over 7q as as a result of strict observance of these principles others- would do well to copy theirmethods i if the canadians lose the british market a second time continuity of supply willi be a vital factor bacon shipments can be levelled out from month to month by proper organization of cold storage facili ties but that will not solve the problem of fluctuation in production from year to year for example reduced hog marketings are now in prospect largely- because grain can be sold at iprofitable prices a situation that is likely to continue until euiopes immediate needs are met if hog producers reduce their production because of this tempor ary condition they are simply pav ing a route over which other coun tries can enter ithe british market once the market is lost canadas only hope of regaining it is by underselling her competitors a practice which sharply cuts the profit in hog production in this country hogs must become a stable crop on those farms equipped tcj produce them otherwise producers will find themselves in the same position as before the war it should alwaysberemembered thai our competitors will discipline themselves severely in order- td achieve their objectives perhaps we should pursue a more steadfast course now lest indifference orj fearpf overproduction costs us the market i in looking to the futureit appeals obvious that hog production must occupy an important position on canadian farms if farm income is to be maintained at a high level governments realize the necessity of increased trade hence will strive to obtain satisfactory markets thiough negotiations and trad agreements these markets can be held only when- producers realize their responsibility and act accord- ingly stable pioduction of a high- quality product at a low cost will help to secure canadas position because of persistent efforts to re gain markets on ithe part iof our competitors canadian producers may haveto struggle along with a lower margin of profit any slack- ening of effort on our part will piove advantageous to them re- serves built up now through the purchase of victory bonds will make the struggle easier and pro- vide the medium for- holding the market a
