ONTARIO FARMER:4.
1000 MEN WANTED
•
THIS
is an appeal to THE FARMERS OF ONTARIO. The Packing
n of Ontario, which process and ship your livestock for
export, ARE SERIOUSLY SHORT OF MEN. Every available'Farmer
of Ontario is urged to offer his services for employment in one of
the Packing Plants in this province as soon as the essential work
of the farm is completed. OVER 1,000 men are required to start in
the month of September alone, Good 'hourly wages will be paid.
Transportation to the plant will be provided. Assistance will be
given in arranging board and room.
4
With full staffs, the Packing Plants of Canada have ample capacity
to handle even the tremendously increased numbers of cattle, sheep
and swine, which Canadian farmers have ready for market this year.
When operating to capacity the Packing Plants can keep the market
cleared and livestock can be slaughtered, processed and shipped at
its most profitable time, when it is at its market peak. Thus, losses
which occur when animals are held beyond the peak - through
additional feeding costs, through falling away from peak condition
and through the danger to price structures when supply threatens,
to exceed demand- are avoided. -
Last year several hundred Ontario farmers volunteered for work in
the plants in processing their own products and protecting their own
interests. Production for export this year has increased by 40%.
Available man-power has shrunk by 28%.
The Ontario Farm Service Force, in conjunction with Employment and Selective
Service has undertaken the task of raising sufficient help from Ontario Farmers
to keep Packing Plants operating to capacity this year. This department of
the Ontario government's Department of Agriculture feels that this extension
of its service is as vitally important to the interests of the farmers of this prov-
ince as anything it has yet undertaken. The need of meat as a primary essential
food to our Allied Armies, to the people of Great Britain and to the starving
millions in countries being liberated by our victorious armies, is the basic
consideration. In addition, efficient operation in the processing and marketing
of livestock is necessary in protecting the greatest export market ever opened
to Canadian farmers.
Your services are needed from now until spring. If you cannot devote that full period of time, a month or more will , be of great assistance.
OFFER YOUR SERVICES AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. If you cannot go to work at once, call or write,
stating that you will come, and at what date you will be available. Remember you will be serving
your own best interests as well as playing a vital patriotic part in serving your country.

Sown at 24 lbs. per acre.
Against this pasture the farmer has
sown his own mixture which does not
include orchard, lirome, Meadow Fes-
cue or Ladino. The same treatment
was used in seeding 200 lbs. per acre
of 4-12-6 fertilizer was applied on each.
The land in all cases was worked to
give a good firm seed bed. Good
management will be used as fertiliz-
ing, manuring, clipping, rotating, etc.
On the plot+ of Jas. Scott, Perennial
Rye was used as a nurse crop, sown
at 8 lbs. per acre. Mr. Scott has pas-
tured his 8 acres, every night with 17
of his purebred shorthorn,_ cows for the
last six weeks. The advantage of
seeding without grain as a nurse crop
is that you can secure a thicker seed-
ing. Often in seeding with •grain we
get lodging causing smothering of the
grasses and clovers. In a permanent
pasture or any pasture we want a
thick seed bed• with no open spaces.
Contrary to many of the farm seedings
these plots are put on fields in a high
state of fertility. The best field is not
too good because the more growth we
get the more returns we get.
Further articles will appear on these
plots. Anyone interested would find
it time well spent to observe these
pastures., There is a display of the
various grasses and cloves in the mix-
ture in the Ontarici Department of
Agriculture window.

Demonstration Plots Located In
Various Parts Of The County
This year permanent pasture demon-
stration projects have been sponsored
by the Ontario Department .of Agri-
=culture. There has been increasing
wide spread interest in this line of
field husbandry. We have had many
new varieties of grain introduced in
recent years with pastures probably,
taking second place. Pastures are the
cheapest nutrient in the production of
meat and milk, By the introduction
of improved strains of grasses and
.clovers and.. proper management the
carrying capacity and returns per acre
can be increased many times to that
of most of our permanent blue grass
_pastures:
In brief the objects of the projects
are:
1. To improve qUantity and quality
of pasture per acre.
2. To provide better pasture
. -throughout the growing \ season.
3. To increase production of meat
and milk at a lower cost.
To reduce labour during the rush
'period.
The four demonstration plots in
Iluron are located conveniently on the
