In fact, owing to the scarcity and high cost of skilled labour, farmers found in mechaniz- ation the means to maintain their operations efficiently and profitably. And the chart above clearly shows an outstanding achievement by the Company in maintaining prices at a low level of increase over 1941. The index for Massey-Harris prices of implements and tractors sold in Canada hasincreased by only 66.8% from 1941, whereas the index of “all commodities” shows an increase of 76.8%.
