affects between 300,000,Q00 and
500,000,000 people. This situa-
lion remains unnolved and con-
tinues to, grow. Fundamentally,
the solution is, on the surface, a
relatively simple one. It is to
provide greater food production
' and better distribution of food
products.
Canada's role Ls to increase
the production of goods having
high nutritional value in suf-
ficient volume to feed its own
growing population. Unless steps
are taken now to bring this
about, Canada and Canadians
could join the "hungry" coun-
tries.
The Ontario Department of
Agriculture and Food is hold-
ing a "Conference on Agricul-
ture" in Vineland, Oct. 25 to
28, ,with the purpose of .tackling
this and other current agricul-
tural conditions in the light of
the future needs of our growing
population. The topics for dis-
cussion and action can well be
vital not only to the welfare
of the people of Ontario but to
Canadians as a whole. The farm-
er and the city dweller will
benefit from the deliberations.
Country Changes
Today, agriculture is Ontario's
largest primary industry and is
the foundation of our modern
industrialized economy. During
the last thirty years Canada has
changed essentially from an
agricultural country to an in-
dustrial • country. Agriculture's
percentage contribution to the
Gros National Product has
dropped. Farm population has
decreased as industry expands
