50,000 Ont. Farmers
Supply Province with
Cream...and Butter
,- The cream cans at"the farm gate
are:: the label 'of the backbone of
Canadian.agriculture, the. general
farmer,
Altogether some 60,000 Ontario,
farmer's are Cream producer's, the
men whose dairy herds keep the
rest of the province supplied with
cream and butter. But they don't
depend, on their dairy herds alone,
in most cases.
These are the men who often
keep a few pigs, grow cereal grahe
perhaps even sugar beets and other
Crops, and assure Ontario and
other markets of the necessary
supplies of both human and ani-
mal food.
For much of the year, though,
the cream cheque is the standby,
and it is the measuring stick. With
a fair return for his cream, the
farmer can count on a fair year,
consequently turn his eyes toward
purchases that should, but often
can't, be made.
Sometimes his production goes a
bit beyond demand, hut farmers
usually believe in producing for
plenty, in preparing for a rainy
day.
In 'Canada that rainy day could
come with the increase in butter
consumption of about three pounds
pee Capita in one year, which
would put the country in the but,
ter scarcity category, That, of
course, would Mean pride rises.
This would do no good for either
producer or consumer, And is the
very thing farmers want to avoid,
