Timmins (By Jim Greenblatt) Having dealt with the Sixth Victory Loan wherein farmers, as others, were appealed to for support (and at the same time benefit themselves by layâ€" ing away a nest egg for the future), it‘s probably timely to give a brief reâ€" sume of the recently released Report on Housing and Community Planning by Canada‘s Committee on Reconstrucâ€" tion as affecting farmers generally. The recommendations are most interesting in view of the fact that the National Housing Act will come before Parliaâ€" ment soon. The committee recommends the building of 188,000 new farm homes over a twentyâ€"year period at an estiâ€" mated cost of $282,000,000, with 9,400 being built annually. The committee was moved, it is certain, by the imporâ€" tant changes brought about by the war in farm population, which has been decreasing steadily. Housing, it would appear, is considâ€" ered a dominant factor in getting peoâ€" ple back into agricuiture, particularily young people now in the armed forces, who will be making their first start in working life after the war. To get a proper persbective of the situation you must know that at the time of the first census of 1891, over 80 per cent. of Canada‘s population were farmers. By 1941:this had dropped to only 45 per cent. Between August 31, 1939 and January 31, 1943, over 430,000 men and boys left their farms, some into the forces others into industry. It is interesting to note, too, a shift in farming is slowly taking place. Durâ€" ing the ‘30‘s both Ontario and Nova Seotia showed 20 per cent decreases ini their farm populations. New Brunsâ€" wick and Saskatchewan reported 10 pery cent. fewer farmers; while Prince Edâ€" ward Island, Manitoba and British Columbia indicated 5 per cent. declines. Only in Quebec and Manitoba did the number ofâ€"farmers increase, and by less than 10 per cent. There chave been: further losses in the last three years. Then take abandoned farms, rising in number from 32,800 in 1931 to 52,50C in 1941 (and, of course, higher toâ€"day) all reflecting! the flight from the farm. Farm values over the same period deâ€" creased from an average of $7,200 in 1981 to $5,700 in 1941, mainly on land and buildings, for there has definitely been an increase in value of impleâ€" ments, machinery and livestock. The Report makes no forecast as to future growth of Canadian farm popuâ€" lation, but does visualise a great inâ€" crease in mixed farming. The recomâ€" mendations, based on careful study and analysis, would seem to prove ont A WEEKLY EDITOR LOOKS AT Ottawa Written specially for the woekly newspoapers of Canada 28 21 [4 South Porcupine CONSUMER‘S RATION COUPON CALEND A R 29 2 2 | fej 30 2 3 Ont. 16 thing, farming must be made more atâ€" tractive and housing is one of the prime considerations. ~In addition the Report recommends besides the homes, erecâ€" tion of farm labourers‘ cottage and community centres, and the donation by the Federal Government of electriâ€" cal, plumbing, heating and refrigeraâ€" tion equipment to farm housing proâ€" jects, in return for the labor of instalâ€" lation. Other factors of importance in atâ€" tracting farmers back to the soil are land settlement schemes, production and price policies designed to keep up farm prices, immigration policy, and the scope of farm amenities program, plus the extension of rural facilities such as electrification, schools, etc. Notes from the Services: More than 2,000 British airmen trained in Canaâ€" da married |Canadian girls . . . The Canadian Women‘s Army Corps is makâ€" ing an appeal for 5,000 recruits . . . With a staff of only 130 airmen, the salvage section of the R.C.A.F. Repair Depot at Scoudouc, N.B., in 1943 reâ€" covered 320 aircraft valued at $50 milâ€" lion dollars, of which 229 were repaired, returned to service on Canada‘s east coast . . . Warning is again issued of the serious housing situation at Halifax. Theré is a tremendous demand for engineers and science graduates for war industries and essential civilian serâ€" vices, as shown by an analysis from the Department of Labour‘s Wartime Buâ€" reau of Technical Personnel. In Janâ€" uary and February this year the Buâ€" reau got more employers‘ enquiries for technically trained persons than at any time since November, 1942. There are five vacancies for every three available, although 31,050 persons so listed are now engaged in essential work. A large number of the 1944 engineering and science graduates have already been spoken for by Army, Navy and Air Force. Figures have been released on paâ€" tients in Canadian hospitals. From 1939 to 1942 the number of patients in our public hospitals increased by 230,783 or 27 per cent; in mental institutions 3,286 or 6 per cent. In private hospiâ€" tals the increase was 11,459 or 31%. Tuberculosis sanatoria patients were more by 2,572 or 13%. Pigures show that average length of stay in public hospitals was 12.2 days, 16.6 days in private, 226 days for tuberculosis sanaâ€" toria and five to six years in mental institutions. As close as can be reéckoned by the responsible department ,there should be at least 8,000,000 bushels of apples for fresh consumption in Canada for 1944â€"45, or about 35 pounds per head of population .against an average of 26 pounds in the two years just before the war. ‘The prospect is given as good for a healthy demand at or close to ceiling prices for best varieties and packs. There were short crops in 1940, 1941 1943, but the near normal crop now predicted for 1944 is estimated at about 12,885,00 bushels. Canadian farms showed fine increases in all types of livestock, the official survey of December 1, 1943 showed. Cattle on farms were up by 672,500 head or 7.6 per cent. Saskatchewan had the highest increase, Ontario showâ€" ing little. There were 3,953,000 milk cows in the country at the above date. There was a quarter million head inâ€" crease in sheep all benefitting in this regard except British Columbia while Saskatchewan with an up of 127.8 per cent. was leading. Hogs went skyâ€" high as to figures with a record of 22 per cent. reaching 9,473,000 head, an increase of 1,723,000 over 1942. The population of hens and chickens (57,512â€" 500) was up by 7,731,200 birds. Sasâ€" katchewan and Nova Scotia lead with 20 per cent. increases.

A path is necessary around its four sides; that is so much unused space. Plants along the edges of a raised bed are not only too well drained, they lack proper support. Our growing season is too short to carry out anything like a full system of rotation, but there are a few vegetâ€" ables that mature rapidly enough to be replaced by a second crop. Early Spring radishes germinate and grow large enough for use in three weeks from the date of seeding. These can befitted is between rows of cabbage or other large vegetables that need more room when full grown than they do at planting time. Small quantities of see sown at interâ€" vals will maitain a continuous supply of radish until the heat of summer sets in. Radishes grow pithy in hot weather, but there are summer and winter varieties that produce again in the Fall. Winter radishes grow to large proportions and take ‘seven or eight weeks to mature. Sow in the middle of June and again in July for winter storage. Many gardeners mix a little radish ssed with carrots, beets, parsnips, to mark the rows and assist in weeding before the slower growing plants are up. The radishes should be out of the way in time to avoid injury to the main crop through overcrowding. Spinach, swiss chard, and all lgafy vegetables are especially rich in Vitamin A. Swiss chard can be harvested from the time it is ready to thin out in éarl Sunmimer until the ground freezes tigh but spinach has a much shorter growâ€" ing season. It attains full growth in about forty or fifty days and it is better to pull it up by the roots than to deâ€" pend on a second cutting. Epinach bolts to seed very readily in hot weaâ€" ther, although there are a few strains of spinach reputed to resist the heat of Summer. A second crop could be started ~for Fall use or the row could be seeded to Early Snowball or Milan turnips. These mature in about forty days and if sown in the middle of July should be in prime condition ty the end of August. There is a twoâ€"fold advantage in sowâ€" ing carrots and beets as soon as the ground can be prepared for planting. The young carrots from the first thinâ€" ing out provide a welcome addition to the m>nu when vegetables straight cut of the garden are at a premium and carrots at no time ever taste so well as they do when they are just large enough to cook, besides, Junior enjoys them raw. Carrots can stand more crowding than any other root crop and should be sown fairly thick and left to grow until they attain finger size. When young beets are thinned out the root and top should all be used. One other advantage in seeding early lies in the fact that you have the jump on the cutâ€"worm before he gets really voracious. Cutâ€"worms attack carrots and beets readily while still in the stage but seem to lose interest when the stems grow coarser.

What we do is to give special study to the qualities required of such of the nutritional essential factors as we canâ€" not safely leave to chance."

In a previous article I spoke of divid= ing the daily allaswance of money for food into five equal parts. Miss Lucy CGillet of the Community Service Soâ€" ciety of New York suggests: One fifth, or more, for milk and cheese, cream and ice cream. One fifth, or less, for meats and nsh poultry and One fifth, or less, for fats, sweets, and food adjunts or "extra and misâ€" cellaneous‘"‘ items. The New York iCity Board of Health has set up eight groups, not covering all foods, but recommending that s¢me of each of these eight groups be ceaten every day. One fifth, more or léss, for fruit and vegetables. oOone fifth, more or less, for breadâ€" stuifs and cereals. 1. Mi‘k and its products; â€" buttsr cheese. 2.
