In Upcoming Census How many acres does a farmer in the Maritimes, in Quebec, Ontario, British Colum bia or the Prairie Provinces operate? What, changes are tak ing place on Canadian farms as a.,Result of Wider use of tractors,, combines,, and other large-scale farm equipment? The answers to these quest ions, which are typical of many received by the Dominion Bur eau of Statistics, will be ob tained' in the 1956 Census which starts in June next. Compari sons with earlier census data will show the extent of the changes. • According to previous cen suses, most farms in Canada are what are commonly called “family-sized” farms. They are operated by the owner or tenant with the aid Of .members of the family and perhaps hired or seasonal help. There is a grow ing tendency, however, towards larger * farms, especially, in tire : grain-growing areas of western Canaoa; With the' greater' use of power equipment on farms, in creased size has not necessarily resulted in the need for hiring more labour. In 1901, according to the cen sus of that year, the average area per.farm in Canada was 124 acres. The size increased during each census period until 1951 when the average was 279 acres. In Quebec and Ontario, the av,erage rose from 104 acres to 123 acres. Increases in the Prairie Provinces have been more spectacular, rising from 279 iml901 to 178 acres.

He pointed out that raw water was piped from the Exeter dam to the canning factory last sum mer in order to give the food processing plant more water for cooling and maihtainancO pur poses. Mr. Cochrane said additional water supply was necessary if the town is to grow. “W6 would like to be in a .position to pro gress by attracting industry and people in general to build here.” Clerk C. V. Pickard pointed out that at least one existing industry (Canadian Canners Ltd.) would build an addition if an adequate water, supply could be provided. John A, Morrison, chairman of the AusablC River Conserva tion Authority, said water is the lifeblood of any community and that it must have an adequate supply if it expects to grow. “Western Ontario towns will find themselves in a very pre carious position if they do not look to ., the future to provide for a sufficient supply »of wpter.” “.I have had many enquiries trom industry about the loca tion of plants,” he said, “and their prime consideration is whether there is an adequate water supply,” Answering questions nut by Mr. Jamieson, Clerk Pickard *,«.id the town received five or six enquiries • from industry evA’’v year.
