in the fact that it takes

had some of the answers for me in
Toronto. First let me pass on the
information that our tentative al
location for 1943 is 25% of the
1940 tonnage for farm machinery
150% for repairs. That’s not as bad
as it sounds when one considers that
the Russians found it possible to pro
duce materials in factories six months
after they had been blasted to rubble
by the Nazis, and retaken. That ta'kies
ingenuity and improvisation. The
Canadian farmer can do that too.
Why is 1940 taken as the basis?
Because that was the -last normal
year in the implement business, and
the period used by the United States
also, from whence we have some de
pendence for materials. Things were
n’t so serious in this line in 1942, for
when the smoke had cleared away a

pairs we had a 9 6 % overall tonnage

combines down to 33%, but stilb
like the Russian simile quoted
above, satisfactory. Grain drills
for the West will be on the basis
of 15% of 1940’ but 30% for East
ern Canada; the West will get
33 1-3 in one-way disc seeders and
Eastern Canada nil. The tonnage
was computed separately for* East and
West as essentiality required.
The administration knows there
will be a bigger demand for farm ma
chinery this year because generally
speaking there was a better income
in 19 42 and' farmers will want in
crease and better plant facilities,
Labor will be scarce. So then, what
better than a rationing system?
"We studied the British system
and that ‘ of the United States to
guide us if possible,” said Mr,
Bloom. Out of the cumulative study
and research they evolved what they
consider the most simple and least ex
pensive way to work out the farm
machinery and equipment problem
which is nationally important in
scope.
Here it is in a nutshell, just as
easy for a city slicker to understand
as for the farmer. In the regional
board across Canada, fourteen ma

Tieties were most essential. That’s a making- every effort to be fair and
good approach, isn’t it? ' ..............- ■ •
In Western Canada, for instance,
they found they could do without
threshers more, and wanted combines
increased; they could cut out drag
harrows for a year but wanted one
way discs. As a result they were able
to order varieties eliminated in the
West from 473 to 73; from that many
to 117 in Eastern Canada. Walking
plows, as an example, will come in
only five Ikfinds as compared to
equitable to all with the amount at
disposal of the country as a whole.
That means harder work, taking care
of present equipment to make it last
longer.
The farmer likes to.grouse just as
the soldier does, but they both give
when it’s needed. Because there’s a
serious war going on the farmers
will, we think, without hesitation,
do the best he can to make machin
ery go ’round to the best advantage.
The icomparative rationing has been
set up 'because there is a scarcity of
materials and the necessities of
production. We’ve just got to
