Placements will be greater thaja eyer
before .because of the' extensive use
of machinery from 1941 to 1943, and
the changes in ,produCtion. that have
taken place since that time.
Wide publicity ,- has been given to
the fact thet•'80 per cent., of the .1940
tonnage will 'improve the situation in
1944, -but that does not quite give the
correct impression, and may leadto-
over-optimism a,nd: eventually' hard
feeltigs. •
Those who control distribution. of
available farm machinery and equip-
ment are' •concerned with the needs
of both Western and Eaatern Canada.
But in the west the purchasing power
of the, farmer,has so increased in the
past three years that the 1944 allot-
ments will not nearly meet the need
or the demand. It will, however, en-
able agriculture to. carry on if re-
pairs are distributed to carry on if
repairs are distributed, to them •-in
time and if further conservation 'prac-
tices are followed, custom work with
machines is adopted, and co-operative
use of new machines ' carried out.
That is a prime •poita.
Let us deal' first with Western• -Can-
ada, and here may we say—as advis:
ed by those who know—that the sit-
eatien applies pretty much the same
to Eastern Canada. Comparing 1940
with 1944, here is the lineup of :farm
machinery and equipment for the
West. Ilaying machinery is about,
the same, but there is a seriouashort-
age of power mowers. In tillage im-
Pio:sent& the number. of units are all
less in 1944 except blade weeders,
but these ifir-•not amount t� very
many. Take tractors, for instance,
of which there were 12,713 sold in
1940, but only 9,010 available for sale
in 1944. •Whi•le it is true that live-
stock equipment is increased-, it will
not meet the demand in view of
changes in prodection,
,Regarding repairs, • the percentage
available is good and some lines are
Plentiful, yet it is known that repair
parts such as motors, roller and hall
bearings, malleable ca.stings; steel
discs and shapes will be critical as
