Horse Numbers Down
44% in Canada
Horse numbers in Canada de-
clined by 44 per cent, or from a
total of 2,788,0001 in 1941 to 235,300
in 1051, according to census reports
covering this 10 -year period, states
the Economics Division, Depart-
ment of Agriculture, Ottawa. There
was a marked difference (however
in the rate of decline in various
areas.
In the brown and dark -brown
soil zones of Alberta and Saskat-
chewan the percentage decrease
averaged between 60 and 75 for
most census divisions. In the park
belt of these two provinces, the
census divisions of northerly Mani-
toba, most of British Columbia and
Ontario, the decrease was' between
40 and 60 per cent. In eastern,
Ontario, the greater 'part of Quebec
and the Maritimes, the decrease'
was from 20 to 40 per cent- For
some areas of Nova Scotia, New
Brunswick and Quebec, where
farming is least commercialized a
decrease of less than 20 per cent
occurred.
Indicative of a further decline in
horse numbers is the drop in the
number of colts being raised for
replacement purposes, In 1941
about 15 per cent of the horse
population was reported as less
than two years old. By 1951 the
number under two years old had
dropped to about . three per cent,
and the breeding of horses has
fallen most in the prairie provinces
which was the principal producing
area in 1941.
Farms reporting no horses at the
1951 census fall into two categor-
ies; small holdings or farms of
very low income, and at the other
extreme farms highly commerc-
cialized which have shifted over
entirely to mechanical power. Most
of the farms in eastern Canada and
British Columbia reported two
horses or less. In the Prairie
provinces between 40 and 50 per
cent of the farms reported three
or more.
Mechanization has not developed
as far in Quebec and the Maritime
provinces as in the rest of Canada,
but it has not been confined to the
larger commercial farms. Over 50
per cent of all farms reporting
sales of products of less than $2,-
500 per farm, reported ownership
of tractors in 1951..On farms with
sales between $2,500 and $5,000, 76
per cent reported tractors, and on
those with sales valued at more
than $5,000, 90 per cent reported
tractor ownership.
Since the Bureau of Statistics
estimates the number of horses on
farms at June 1, 1953, as 1,096,200,
it would appear that the trend to-
ward mechanization is likely to con-
tinue and the number of horses on
farms show a further decrease, par-
ticularly
articularly in the Prairie provinces
and in Quebec.

L. TAKE IT EASY !
When you are 90 or ov"-r, go at an easy pace,
Be careful and keep out of the race;
Take plenty of time going from place to place,
To be slow in your walk is no disgrace.
You should go some earlier to your bed;
Do not stand around much, but sit instead;
When in the summer sun. guard well your head;
Following 'these rules, make sure your well fed.
Go slow and careful when climbing the stairs;
Have patience and advance with all cares;
Never allow any interference with your affairs,
For that will bring to you more gray hairs.
Drink only water that is pure and moderately cold;
Do not make-believe you are a sixteen -year-old,
By showing your smart tricks and being bold -
Being bold and trying to look young will make you grow old.
