World Wide News In Brief Form
HE exchange of. Christmas greetings by Long Distance telephone
had become a peace time tradition in many a Canadian home. ,
But such 'Calls are a luxury in war time-and luxuries have
no place in a war economy. War needs the wires you'd like to
use for Christmas messages. War business, and the boys in camps
who will be calling home from all parts of Canada, will be de-
layetl unless you avoid your usual 'Christmas telephoning.
If you really must send your greetings by Long Distance, won't
you please do so a few days before, or a few days after Christmas -not on Chrjstmas day.
This will be part of your contribution to Canada's war effort.

How To Reduce Farm
Crop Production Costs
Unless production' costs are care-
fully controlled, the present increase
in farm revenue may result in no in-
crease in profits, says H. D. Mitchell,
Field Husbandry Division, Central
Experimental Farm, Ottawa. Farm
operations will have to be thoroughly
planned, in view of the current Short-
age of farm 'labour and new farm
machinery.
Labour is. going to be the most im-
portant factor in the cost of producing
farm crops, and every possible means
should be adopted to overcome the
present shortage, and keep down the
cost, Neighbourly co-operation will
have to be exercised to an extent un-
known since the pioneer days. Fancily
labour will have to assume a greater
share of the work. Machinery on hand
Will have to have its use prolonged
by timely overhaul and repair. Trac-
tors and other equipment may be in-
creased service if used co-operatively
or hired out to neighbours.
,production costs may be lowered
through an increase in yields per'
acre, brought about by the use of im-
proved varieties , and cleaner seed.
Weed and plant disease control will
increase yields. Producing the great-
est possible volume of home grown
feed will reduce feed costs, insure an
adequate supply, and save time and
expense in purchasing feeds. Improve-
ment of pastures by reseeding and
fertilization will lower costs, increase
production during the summer season,
and put cattle in ,better condition for
the winter season. .
