Plain bearings which have little or eo protection 'require a sticky or tacky oil which will cling to the.. bear- ings. 11achine oils and special greas- es are available for these bearings and they should be applied frequent- ly to provide lubrication and to flush dust out of- the -bearings.. Motoroils rwhich are used in automobile •bear dings are not suitable for these bear- ing's; as motor oil is a free flowing ,oil designed • for enclosed bearings. Many of the plain bearings which are provided with oil holes can be im- +proved by installing pressure grease fittings. Pressure fittings are avail- able with threaded or tapered tips. "The fittings with tapered tips can be, (driven into place after a. suitable hole its drilled t 1 e d into he bearings. Bearings designed, for special duty require suitable lubricants. Water lumps on cart of -tractors should be greased with an oil which, is not affected by water, and magnetos re- quire a light oil or graphite accord - lug to •the ;resign of the bearing. In- struction !books on engines, tractors and automobiles contain detailed di- rections for lubrication of special bearings. ,,.3 3 3 Agriculture and Full Employrrient Why is full employment important to farmers? • The answer is fully discussed by Prank Shefrin, Economics Division, Dominion Department' of -Agriculture,- In the May issue of the Economic Annalist, specifically with reference to agriculture ' within the scope of the White Paper presented to Par- liament, entitled "Employment and Income, with Special Reference to the Initial Period of Reconstruction.," This White Paper sets as the aim of all ireconstructaion policies "the exten- sion of opportunity, welfare anar se- curity of all ,:the Canadian people." It 'outlines/ an economic , policy, de- signed not only to mitigate depres- sions in the immediate and near fu- ture brit to attain "full employment." Domestic- investment,- both public and private, exports, and mainten- tenance of consumer income are con - tendered decisive for. a high level of -employment and income. y. Summarized briefly, Mr. Shefrin's- article says: - The amount of money that urban ipeople have to spend largely deter - amines how good =customers .ihey are for farm products.. ."Full employ-, .anent" provides' . job opportunities for those who are not needed in agricul- ture. Ever since Confederation, Can- ada has , had a farm -to -town Confederation,. except for short periods. Where- as Canada was once predominantly rural; now only a. little over a quar- ter of the population lives on farms. llncreasedefficiency in farming, re- sulting in a greater output. per man Ihas made avail alae part of. the farm ,population for other work. Many processes and services formerly per- formed on' the farms," such as butter - snaking, slaughtering and chick batch- ing have been transferred to urban centres. These and other factors have made the rural -urban migration a continuing process, What can the agricultural' industry do to assist in maintaining "full em- ployment" in all "Canada? The fol - (lowing are suggestions of action that meed to be fitted into an over-all em- ployment and production program: the building of new farm homes and improvements of old ones, the im- provement of farm buildings, the re- placement of obsolete farm equip - plant, a 'soil improvement program— Men Are Working - To Exhaustion Chronic fatlgtee aria.. travails ex- haustion. re getting men down down. in health and cloven in resistence to cold and other ailments, It is high time for a build up with Dr. Chase's N'1l,VE.

It is obvious that the attainment of the goal of "full employment" can- not be achieved by legislatiiih alone, nor by a 'single device or plan,. Mr. Shefrin pointe out. The White Pa- per recognizes this difficulty and states that thaatchievement of a high level of employment and income "will require the effective working of a number of compatible policies, all directed to. the same end . . . It must be an object of national en- deavour. The active co-operation of all governments or groups in the country •will be essential to success." "Co-op" Business in the Dominion A , directory, of co-operatives in Canada compiled this year by the Economics Division, Dominion Depart- ment epartment of Agriculture, ' indicates that ten out of .a total of 2,044 as's'ociations reporting their volume of sales of farm ro ducts supplies, lies and m c PP hon-. eF dise for the crop. year 1943-44, have an annual volume of business in ex- cess of $1.0,000,000. Out of the -total, 1,319 associations (or 64.5 per cent.) show a business of less than $50,000 during the year, and 884 associations (or 43.2 per cent.) fall below the $25,- 000' mark. The grain growers, writes A, E. Richards in the Economic 'Annalist, are the most completely organized of the commodity co-operative marketing groups. Approximately 43 per cent. of all commercial marketings of grain were handled through co-operatives. Organizations of "live stock producers handled 17 per cent. of the total com- mereial marketings of , cattle, calves, hogs and sheep and lambs. Co-oper- atives are credited with about 14 per cent:. of the total sales of fluid milk and manufactured dairy products, and roughly 35 per cent. of the fruits and potatoes, marketed.. Marketing co-op- ,eratives handled about 24' per cent of the main _ farm, products entering commercial channels of trade. Reported membership in co-opera- tive business organizations in Canada in the 1943-44 era year was 581;,826: Here . again, A. E. Richards points out, duplication .must be kept in mind in interpreting total co-operative membership figures. Some Canadian farmers 'market the entire output .of their 'farms on'. the co-operative plan. A farmer, may deliver his grain to a co-operative elevator, live .stock to a .livestock shipping association, and milk to a co-operative dairy. lie may also purchase 'a .large • proportion of his farm supplies and household ne- o'essities from a co-operative store. For tractor fuel and gasoline he goes tii' his nearest act -Operative' oi1 eta- tion. tntion. A, useful measure of co-opera- tive activity on. a regional basis is obtained by dividing the total amount of co-operative marketings for an ar- e'a by the number of farms which it contains as reported in the last cen- sus. On this basis for the crop year 1942-43, British Columbia led all pro- vinces with average co-operative mar- ketings of $642 per farm; Saskatche- wan was in second place with $621 per farm; Manitoba was $563 per farm. and Alberta, $461. The average for Canada as a whole was $403. Dur- ing the past 12 years, the annual av- erage for' all of Canada was $223 per farm. Seed Growers' Association To Meet At Guelph Valued. at 21ye million dollars, Can- ada's 1944 vegetable seed production had ten times the value of pre-war production. The value of forage crops seed grown In Canada last year was about $7 million, compared with an 'average of $3 million i,n pre-war Years. `" Agriculture' officials says that much credit for this expansion in the seed industry goes' to the members of the Canadian Seed Growers' Association which holds eta. annual meeting at Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph, Ont., June 19th and 20th. The C.S. G.A. ha grown tremendously "since it was established in 1904, but never have its members made as great a contribution . to enhancing both qual- ity and quantity of seed production as during the war years. The officers of this. organization are Alex M. Stewart, Ailsa Craig, Ont., presideht; Howard P. Wright, Airdrie, Alta., vice-president; W. T. G. ' Wiener, Ottawa, secretary -treas- urer.

For the Bast tbsee years. Pasture trials with poultrjr; have been conducted at the Domixdon Experi- mental Station, .Saanichtan, B. C. where the value of cereals, grasses and alfalfa as pasture has been com- pered. oinpared. Although to date Ito' consist- ent onsistent results have, been obtained re- garding the superiority of ,one kind or another, at the same tone several factors' concerning :pasture 'manage - meat have become apparent, states Z. J. Woods, the ;superintendent of the Station. Por example, in considering oat pasture for chicks, when the seed is sown early, sufficient ground cover- age will . be given normally by the time the birds are allowed to run out from'the brooder, houses: :'During the summer months the plants will tend to mature and thus lose their value as green. feed. In order to• overcome this; 'the crop can be mowed or if the range is divided in half, one por- tion can be seeded early in the sea- son and the other In June. When it is desirable to have pasture adjacent to the laying house for tali and early spring use, it is better to seed in late June a mixture of two bushels of oats and one of fall rye. 'Under mild winter conditions the oats may survive and give satisfactory herb- age, but including rye assures a good supply of green matter in the fall and spring, although mowing may prone advisable at both periods to prevent maturity.
