export markets dhows that theta

1949. There will not only be a
demand for bilis product in las own
right, but the. shortage of other
meats will aeoelvtuislte
The Executive of the Poultry In

structed a soh -committee la ronsubt
with representatives of the produce

I sponilic and definite in+lormatton

they should be able to obtain for
them birds when they are ready
for market.
The following points have been
established and they are presented
Itc producers so as to acquaint them
' with the possibilities of .a shortage,
to impreses upon them that. the
markets need, and will need,
poultry meat, and as a guide in
determenteg the extent of production.
The points ere:
1. Arrangements have been con.
eluded through which Canada is to
simply to the United' States Army
her surplus up to thirty million
pound of Grade A & B poultry;
C1+ickens two lbs. and over. fowl
3 lbs. and over.
2 This huge block of product,
besides other exports, leaving the
country, means that distributors
will be hard pressed to bake care of
all delnaiids.
3. No cockerel chicks - - particu-
larly heavy breeds - - that can be
raised for poultry meat should be
destroyed, They can be grown and
profitably said when finished,
4. The demand will be principally
for Gracie A and Grade 13. Grade
C birds are an uncertain quantity at
the beset and so must suffer a sub-
stantial price discount. A large
percentage of C's could be turned
into a higher grade through proper
came, feeding and finishing. This
will pay.
E. The nbembere of bhe pn'cduce
trade were asked to state prints
that producers conks feel assured of

To aid parents in the raising of their children, the Family
Allowances Act was passed at the'last session of Parlia-
ment. Under the Family Allowances Act each eligible
family in Canada will receive a monthly cheque beginning July,
1945. These monthly payments are to help provide children with
medical, dental and nursing services, more nourishing food, ade-
quate clothing and shelter, and to give parents of Canada a chance
to equalize the opportunities for their children.
WHEN PAID? Family Allowance cheques will be mailed out to
parents each month beginning July, 1945.
TO WHOM PAID? Allowances will be paid to the parents, or to
any person who maintains a child.
INCOME TAX: No one will benefit from both Family Allowances
and a full income tax deduction for their children. Parents have the
choice of applying for their Family Allowances or not claiming the
allowance and claiming the full deduction for their children under
Income Tax. If they claim the Family Allowance, the amount of
deduction from tax allowed for children under the Income War
Tax Act will be reduced by the amount of any Family Allow.
Oncenyone received.
Awho is uncertain whether or not he or she will benefit from
Family Allowances more than from Tax Deduction should register
for the Family Allowance and in this way be on the safe side.,
Incomes may change during the course of a year.
