ONTARIO POTATOES

Western newspaper reports on Northern Ontario production of put.-itoes and places a value of 5200 per bushel on them. For the mlormation of our readers we are quoting the item verbatim.

"Last year Northern Ontario grow 1,500,000 bushels of potat- ucs. worth nearly s3.000.000 and more than 20 per cent of all Ont- aria potatoes.' They were also the host potatoes in the province. Big producers were Sudbury, Thunder Ray. Cochrane and Nlpissing dist- rirts. Around Sudbury the average ms 411 bushels an acre, nearly riuuble the provincial average."

I..-iIZGE FARMS OR SMALL

As early as 1085 the American icriculturist - a farm paper ' was di i the problems and danger inherent in the large farm. in article at that time states in part as follows:- i

"A small farm means schools, pliurches, society, culture in In nu-cctions. Monster fsnns mean a ti o s e r t. isolation. barbiIl'lSm- Small farms encourage good .till- ago, make large crops. high prices 0; land and property for all. There is much sense and force in this comparison of small and large mm, for the former naturally bring the intelligence, morality, and refinements of civilization, while the latter have a tendency to produce illiteracy, roughness, and the other disadvantages of isolation. When farmers have learned that it is not economy to own more land than they can fill in the most profitable manner, so that it will pay for the money ex- pended in keeping it free from taxes, weeds. and other encumb- rances. they will have solved the problem of ease in practical rural life."

Conditions have certainly chang ad in seventy years and not many of the above observations may be pertinent at the present time but nevertheless the sure and steady trend to larger farms will produce marked changes in the pattern or rural living and in the state of rural society.

SUPPORT FOR 10 PRODUCTS

Since 1046 there have been price support programs at various times on ten Canadlanfsm commodit- ics:-potatoes. apples; dried white hcans. honey: dry skimmed milk; cheese; butter: eggs; hogs and cattle.

During the year 1054-1965 there were price supports on eggs. butt- er. Nova scotla apples and cheese. The price support on hogs was continued. No purchases were made. Butter has been supported for the past six years at a net cost of three million dollars.

FARM MEETINGS

January of late years has be come the traditional month for the holding of farm organization meet- ings both ovinclal and National. The Nova otia Federation leads of! by holding its Annual Convent- ion at Tnlro between Christmas and New Years. In quick success- ion follow the Annual Meetings of the Prince Edward Island Federi- ntion: the New Brunswick Feder- ation: the Maritime Federation: and the Eastern Conference (in two sections this year, one at saint John and one at Tomato). During the week of January 16 the Dairy Farmers of Canada meet in Saint John and the following Week the Canadian Federation of

Agriculture in Hamilton. Ontario.

Out of all K-.se meetings with their discussions and ideas is dis- tilled the essence of what farm people consider to be desirable policy for Canadian agriculture. The starting point, is of courli. the idea of some individual at home on his farm. The next step may be at Farm Forum with it! informal discussion or a small district meeting where the idea crystalizes in the form of a resol- ution for presentation to a County or Provincial meeting. The procesl continues step by step until i-M idea reaches the Board of Direct- ors of the Canadian Federation of Agriculture and may eventually become part of a Brief to the Can- adian Cabinet.

TARIFF BOARD REPORTS

The Federation has on hand I limited number of Tariff Board reports on the potato industry. While they last they are available to interested parties and will be forwarded upon receipt 0! filly cents.

SIX YEARS OF EXPERIENCE

For six years the Federation of Agriculture in this Province has maintained an office with a staff. This office. in addition to looking after Federation malers has also provided secretarial services for Farm Radio Forum. Prince Edward Island Dalrymen's Assoc- iation; the Central Farmers In- stitute; and the Provincial Market- ing Board. in addition, the secret- ary has assisted on a gber of committees connected with various policies administered by the Den artm-ent of Agriculture.

At the time the Federation was reorganized. those active in the movement believed that the main- tenance of an office would he nec- essary in order to give the Feder- ation prestige. and in addition would enable it to operate much more effectively as a clearing house for the problems of agricult- ure. The intenance of an office with even a minimum staff costs money. True, it is not a great deal of money when spread over approx lmately ten thousand farmers but the facts are that not all of these farmers have been willing to or interested in making a contribut- ion. Even with strict economy it has not been easy. to finance the Federation and the Board of Dir- ectors are now faced with the pro- blem of devising some new or ad- ditlonal sources of income if the Federation is to be expanded or oven continued on its present basis.

In other Provinces there are organizations with considerable wealth which make generous con. tributions as members of the Fed- eration and ease the financial bur- den placed upon the individual farmer. However. in this Province there are few, if any, wall-heeled groups. Therefore. a large percent- age of Federation funds must come from the individual and it has not been easy to devise any system which is efficient and inexpensive in obtaining contribut- iolnslgrom large numbers of indiv-

Plan large Connery For

New Brunswick

FREDERICTON (CP) - Estalr lishment of a large canning plant in New Brunswick is under nego- llillilll. H. H. Smith, industrial

' i at Saint John, dis- closed Wednesday night.

Mr. Smith said that the company proposes canning 3,520 tons of

'es a year. Agricultural ex- perts here said such a cannery would cost upwards of 3500.000 to build. '

Mr. Smith said no definite loca- tion has been agreed upon but the company was looking for the best production area where top trans- portation facilities were available. He added that negotiations should be concluded by early spring.

Lloyd Sloat of Springhill, prea- ident of the New Brunswick Fed- eration of Agriculture said he did not think New Brunswick farmers could immediately supply all needs of the cannery. but felt they could

do so with a stepped-up production:

program.

He said details of the cannery's requirements would be put before federation delegates before the windup of their annual meeting here today
