AGRICULTURAL
TIDBITS
With Adrian Vos.
At this time of year, the farmer,
like any other businessman, takes a
look at what happened in the year
that has just passed and makes
plans for the year ahead. He takes
inventory and closes his books
preparatory to the filling out of his
tax forms. It has been a year of
mixed blessings. High grain prices
and low livestock prices; late
plantings, beaause of,heavy spring
rains and as a consequence corn
that didn't mature before an early
frost struck. Nothing new, and we
are full of hope that this year will
give us good crops again, with a
reasonable return for our work, our
investment in money, in labour and
in anxieties. One of our anxieties
has been, and still is, the almost
continuing incidence of strikes that
has hit our business. The strike at
farm implement factories at the
grain handlers, at the packing
houses, at the meat graders and,
still going on, at the machinery
parts warehouses. We heard of
one farmer who needed a part for
his combine at harvest time. The
value of the part was $30, 'but
because it had to be flown in from
Western Canada, there was an
additional charge of $88 for air
freight. That buys a lot of
groceries, even at today's prices.
We just hope that, this long strike
will be settled before spring work
In Denmark, farmland can only
be sold to farmers Who vouch they
will work that land. There is-also a
maximum limit on the size of
Danish farms. No more than 500'
acres is permitted.
If you, want the taste of whole
milk without the fat content, and
you don't want to buy the new 2%
milk, my wife tells 'me that you just
mix one part of whole milk with one
part of skim milk and you have the
same result as when bought ready
