Dear Sir,—I read in the pa- per about 'butter being sold by the government after being stor- ed for a year to support the price. One marvels at the mess we mortals have got into, from tampering with the law of sup- ply ,and demand. We eat 'butter which is at least a year 'old, for no other reason than to make ourselves pay more for it ! Modern inventions such as television would amaze our fore- bears. Don't you think the silli- ness of our modern economy would amaze them even snore? Gonsuaner. T21.13 S1]AI+ORTH N]SWS—Thursday, July 5, 1956 • t egen , • atre Thurs.

The farmer's selling price for milk delivered to the city is the same whether:the ultimate consumer is a schoolboy who pays 8 cents for a glass, or whether he is a prosperous senior in a luxury restaurant topping off a lunch with a glass of milk for which he is charged 20 cents or more. If a city wage earner is now getting enough cash to buy all the milk or other food he and his family can or will eat, a further boost in pay will, not persuade people Lo eat more farm products. Most city workers not only have enough for basic needs but also today they possess what only 50 years ago would have been luxuries only to be dreamed about. It is because Canadians are so fortunate in their high standard of living that wage increases in cities do not really help farmers. In fact, a boost in wages will send up prices of • things fanners buy unless production: costs per Bran are kept down in other ways.
