The overage loss. over the county runs between 35% and 40%. It was found that anaemia causes the greatest percentage of the losses due mostly to the fact: that most hog 'men do not feed the reduced iron or iron sulphate until the pigs show symptoms.

E. Britne-ll, Economic Adviser to the Foods Administration, Wartime Prices and: Tnade Board. While the production of food products reached new heights in 1942, it was not too much to meet the demands of the gigantic appetite for it, he explained. Two months ago, the Foods Ad- ministration began to estimate Can- adian food requirements for 1943, said! Dr. Britnell. Factors to be talk- en into consideration were civilian requirements, purchases for the arm- ed forces, exports to Britain, New- foundland. St. Pierre and Miquelon, the West Indies, and other places, and the increasing demandI for food- stuffs to be sent by the Red Cross Society in parcels to prisoners of war. In the past 12 months, the Red Cross Societv had sent about 6,000,000 parcn‘s to war prisoners. There was also the growing de- mand for food for ships’ stores whic. - was being met in Canada. and 51m: i Dr. Britnelil said it was fully real- ized that the present rates of pro- duction might not be sufficient to meet all these suggested require- ments but the oalcumt-ed. requireâ€" ments should form a working basis “'or objectives for production. When -*he production picture was complete, ~‘t would be necessary to match pro- riuc‘ion with minimum nutritional re- Aiun‘ements and 'to sugqe=t the best «uses of available sumnlies in the light of existing conditions. Civilian requirements are ‘based on “as our- chaserl†figures and make no allow- ance for waste. in storage distribu- tion or use in the home. The nutritional value of the overâ€" all civilian fOIOd' supply in nrosplect for 1943 appears 'to be about as g‘or‘d as the average for 1935â€"36. ansv 70 per vent was chosen as the line be‘mv which mel‘sons would be cnnsidcred to ha undernourished. The ’70 her cent figure applies only to vitamin and mineral requirements for men and: women â€"â€" not to cal- ories or protein. or to iron allowâ€" ~anc-es for women. For Children, the maximum food standards were re- 'tained. Dr. Britnell said: “We cannot af- ford to use production resources for programs which will mot contribute to overall needs of essential foods for civilian, military, éndl export commitments. It is reassuring 'to know that current agricultural plans are taking into account nutritional needs as well as other factors.†Being: a paratrooper is one of the few jobs where a fellow can start at the top.
