ONTARIO While farm revenue in 1939 show- cd‘ little change from the previous year, present indications are that prices for farm products in: 1940 will eh'orw increases. These may be small in some cases but in others they are certain to be more substantial than anticipated: a few months ago. When farm incomes d‘o improve. every eftfort should! .be made to comâ€" serve and use these increased re- turns to the best possible adwantage. Farm mortgages should: be reduced and farm surroundings improved, rather than unwarranted: imvestâ€" ments made in more land! at inflatâ€" ed values. as was the cask: in the last war. War conditions have naturally upset the ordinary calculations of fanmers. They have Ibrought about increased overseas demands for some [fanm products'and have reduced the demands for others. With deep and unanering loyalty to the Mother Country, we cannot ancl will not complain if she requests concentrat- ed and essential foodstuffs rather than those which require undlue space in transportation. Altered market demands due to War call for careful thinking and} planning for 1940. It is our sincere hope that governments may be able to give a fair and] wise guidance in the monrths immediately before us. In the universal urge to increase production, we should stress quality in every product â€"â€" especially in bacon and cheddar cheese. Let us briefly review the present agricultural outlook in Ontario. FIELD CROP BASIS Field crops are the basis of all live stock production. With a war-» time,demand for bacon, cheese and concentrated milk products, all of‘ which must reach Great Britain in- large quantities, the Ontario farmer must first produce the field crops with which to feed hogs, dairy and beef cattle. He must wrest from‘ the soil every bushel of oats, barley and mixed grains it will produce. He has been under a handicap in' the fall of 1939 owing to a lack of moisture. But this handicap can be; partially offset by the use of good' seed, the judicious use of fertilizer and by good cultivation in the Spring. We may"g~et a January thaw that will provide sufficient moisture for Spring crops â€"â€" and we may not. But good} seed, fertilizer and proper cultivation provide a combination of immense value in in- creasing crop production. With the Mother Country’s call for a minimum: of 4,480,000 pounds of 'bacon and ham p‘er weekâ€"with a proviso that if sufficient sirpplies are available, she will take up to 5,000,000! pounds per weekâ€"Ontario hog producers have been most active in increasing their breeding stock. The established price of 102 shill- ings per long hund-redlwei-g'ht (112 pounds) is expected to average about $9.00 per cwt. to the farmer and appears satisfactory unless feed prices advance too rapidly. There may be some danger of this owing to an advancing wheat market which will probany carry other cer- eal prices higher in sympathy. (By Hon. P. M. ‘De‘wan, Ontario Minister of Agriculmre) At any rate there has been con- siderable activity lately in swine breeding stock in Central. and West- ern Ontario with many large ship- ments being made to Eastern On- tario as well as to Alberta and Saskatchewan. It; is naturally a matter of pride to the Ontario De- partment that this «breeding stodk has been available for the western provinces. There has been a decided rise in the price of cheese since the first of Septemlber and shipments to the Old Country have increased- In Ocâ€" toober, 15,280,000 pounds were ex. ported to the United Kingdom as compared with 11,583,000 pounds in October of 1938. The diversion of milk from the manufacture of butter to cheese in 1940 at a satisfactory price level would do much to im- prove revenue of dairy farmers who have been suffering from low prices caused by surplus butter producâ€" tion. The demand for powdered anci evaporated milk has also increased rapidly and will be a factor in war supplies of the food front. The Neth- erlands and Demank have {been supplying 64 per cent of the world's total volume of exports of condensed Agricultural Outieok {or 1940 CHEESE PRICES UP and evaporated milk and“ their ex- ports will undoubtedlly suffer as a Fiom personal observation in the Old Country last summer, there was an increasing demand for grade dairy cattle. Regular shipments were being made to Wales and Scot- land and the breeders seemed pleas- ed- with these foster mothers cfor their beef calves. Shipments, of' course, were discontinued) at the out- break of the war but the market, it is hoped, will be there once the conflict is over. Too much emphasis cannot 'be laid on the fact that quality must rule in all overseas shipments of farm products if this market is to be re- tained' for Canada after the war. Every effort will )be made 'by the smaller dairy countries of Europe to capture pre-war British trade for their own. Canadian products must be of pleasing high quality to keep Britishers brreakfasting on Canadian bacon and using Canadian dairy products at every meal in postwar days. resr.t of reduced shipments of feed- sfuffs and fertilizer reaching their shores. It has been dbserved that in times of strain and‘ stress there has been an increasing use of telbacco andI it is anticipatetfl that twoâ€"thirds of the Ontario crop of some 76,000;000 poundls will be used in our own country. With a two shilling pre- ference in favour of Empire tobacco, to say nothing of exchange rates as compared with UnitedI States, it is confidently hoped! that British manufacturers will gradually use more Canadian tOIbacco. But owing to the conservation of the 01d Counc try manufacturer, no rapid‘ increase in British purchases can be expect- Potato prodluction in Ontario in 1939 was albout 4 per cent less than last year’s small crop and has re- sulted in lower storage stocks in the hands of growers. Purchase of seed potatoes by farmers for plant- ing in 1940 has been greatly in ex- cess of former years. Shipments have been made to British Columbia and the Maritimes have been en- quining for certified Katahd'ins and the United Sltates for certified POTATO PRODUCTION LOWER [1 Maclean's Magazine, 1 yr.

The con‘lmlel'oial sugar beet; crop in Ontario was processed by the end of the first week in Deceml‘oer with the beets averaging over 17 per cent sugar which calls for a consider- anle bonus for sugar content. While fall fruit. pr’ces were de- pressedl owing to the sugar short- age, surplus apples have been used for processing and efforts have been made to increase home consumption. Exports of canned fruit and vegeâ€" tables to the Unitedl Kingdom have increased and! there .should be a good canning factory demand1 in 1940. Chippewas. However, an adequate supply is being saved for Ontario use. The qualdty of Ontario pota- toes has been better than in 1938 and prices to the grower are aIbouct 25 per cent higher than a. year ago. Taking all the available agricul- tural data into consideration, the outlook for the Ontario farm-er is brighter. Increased demands for certain farm products and improvâ€" ing values will CloviOuslw prevail during 1940. Careful planning, how- ever, is essemtial.
