farmer ' is following this direction but
it _seemed rather difficult to convince'
othrs•.that the advice given was sound.
It would appear from , experience • to
•date that it. would have been a mistake
to do anything , else, since > there
are surpluses of every food product in
Canada.
`"This being, the ease it would certain-
ly have been a mistake to have advised
farmers to produce .agreater sifrplus of
any one of these farm produets . In
telling the farmer to go right on doing
what he did 'befOre, excepting in a few
special .cases, we have been asking him.
to do, not oely the 'best thing but the
easiest thing. Our suggestion is that
fax the first year of the war and Pos-
sibly for the secondit will be best
for -farmer to keep, right' on doing
better, __i f . _possible, what they were
.doing._before war , started. , It will cer-
tainly be better if we can go. -througli
the war doing what ' is the natural
thing' -to do un our farms, if it can be
done without , interfering with the
prosecution of . the war, rather than
that we should . find our ragriculture
entirely unsuited to peacetime condi-
tions when the war is over."
Mr. Gardiner .further said that he
observed the chief recommendation
urged -prcviopsly by the:Chamber of
Agriculture, now known as the Feder-
ation of Xgriculture, -was again sub-
mitted. It reads:— • •
" 'rovineial'legislatfon bass now on
thesstatilte books. of seven of the Pro-
vinces to deal with Provincial trade.
-o portunity should he„ %igen -to-farmers
through Federal marketing legislation
governing export and inter -provincial
trade to set up marketing agencies
under their own control." .
In anewer to this the Minister
said,.'
"Tlie position has be,'en "gradually
developing when it Is impossible - to
sell • Canadian surplus farm products,
anywhere, •, other than, in Arnerieail
eotintr'iee, ;,exeeepting through the Eri-
tisil Foots: Ministry. It would appear
from latestfleas; bulletins that time is
almost' if not (suite here. It is" there-
fore: 'important that we should keep
ourselves in a position as n G•overninent
to sheet any emergency with which we
may ,find oureel'vei ` eonfro'nted.
"It is our opinion • that during war
tiine any.,hoards set up to deal With
surpluses of, food produete should be
Bet up by the Government and that
any powers ,conferred upon such hoards'
to compel anyone connected with the
trade or producers to do certain things
which are considered to be in the inter:
este of the state should be exercised
direetly through Government agencies,"
