Tames are changing and just
whether farmers are going to be
able to afford to make changes
to keep up with the times Is prob
lematical. Everyone is competing
for his dollar, which is only worth
75 cents. In newspapers, and mag
azines, on radio, TV and bill
hoards, great pressure is being
applied in that multi-million dol
lar business called advertising.
(Since World War II engineer
ing research has developed many
new ideas that have eased the
drudgery of farming. Yet we are
still a long ways from complete
automation as is being used on
assembly lines of industry; but
tye are many years nearer this
goal than’ other agricultural areas
of the world. Canadian and Am
erican farmers are the most mech
anized in the world. After mech
anization comes automation, and
after automation — ■????
Crop production averages are
steadily increasing due to better
equipment and improved seed
varieties. Cereal grains show a
marked increase and perhaps the
latest development in this field
is the chromosomes research —
Tetra Petkus rye is the proof that
chromosones do control the yield.
More research at the atomic
level is being carried out by USDA
scientists. Hybrid corn breeding
has been making advancements
and today the grain corn growing
areas are still plodding steadily
northward. Science has.also in
creased yields in crops with weed
sprays, compounds, pest controls
and seed inoculation. w
- Ail these with the modern dis
tribution of knowledge by Ag.
IReps., ifarm magazines, and dif
ferent associations, has helped
the average farmer who was not
privileged to obtain a text book
education but has learned by ex
perience -to apply the abundant
knowledge available to him.
Feed research has made great
strides .in the last decade. Basi
cally economical gains and high
production are dependent on the
balanced ration and good man
agement. Coupled with these the
use of antibiotics mixed in feeds
as a control'of diseases is one of
the greatest boons for poultry
and ‘
and
are helping to lower beef and
Iamb production costs but, as at
present, are not licensed for use

(Scientific research has brought
new drugs not only for control
of disease but also for cure. Gone
are the patent medicine's. Today’s
veterinarian is as uip to date as
(the family physician. But the old
adage is stilj, true "An ounce of
prevention is worth a pound of
cure".
Marketing
les is at the
fire in many
organizations have been formed
and marketing boards-set up.. In
some instances we believe this
method of .selling is showing
enough increase of price to the
producers to warrant their exist
ence, but certain other c.ommodit-
ies which ‘are. guaranteed by gov
ernment support prices have fail
ed to rise enough from the Govt,
floor price to even ” pay the ad
ministrative costs of the so-called
"marketing co-op”. Thus in some
cases the producers are receiving
less than the support price for
their produce after they deduct
these extra marketing costs.
Jn spite of all the advance
ments in agricultural production
the Canadian farmer is receiving
2>3% less gross income than in
1951 and as a writer in the Rural
Co-op suggested in the latest is--
sue, perhaps it would be
better to • publish farm returns
ag net income rather than gross.
Maybe all 'the different indust
ries which are competing for that
75-cent dollar would then be
aware if they do .not swing the
support .to the agricultural econ
omy there just cannot be enough
of them to sustain the overall
economy of Canada.
