The severe shortage of newsprint paper that plagued the nation's newspapers during the war is stilt
almost as bad as ever, but pulp mills are making frantic efforts to relieve the deficit, Typical of
what's going on is the photo above, showing a hug: stockpile of paper pulp logs at Hull in the Gatineau
River district of Quebec, being wetted down to lessen fire hazard. 13efore the war, three out of every
eight newspapers in the world were printed on Canadian paper,

Strikes Invented
Centuries Ago
Industrial Strikes Recorded
Early In Christian Era
strike, bring nppertint,t in out
thoughts these clays;, we have gone
to some pains to discover how mo-
dern tiny are; whether they (:0111e
in With the industrial revolution in
the latter part of the Eighteenth
Century, relate.; the liar -as City
Stat', They didn't, They were in-
vented in ancient times, certainly
as far hack as the Roman Empire
2,00(1 years ago.
Strikes didn't exactly flourish in
Ironman tine's, because slaves were
plentiful, and when an employer
could rent slaves at a few cents a
day he was able to keep wages
down. Any free workman who was
dissatisfied with the job you'd be
replaced with little trouble,
int the early days of Ronie there
were some general strikes 011 the
part of the common people, the ple-
beians, to force the granting of po-
litical rights by the aristocracy.
But a fete industrial strikes began
to trickle into the records ea rly in
the Christian era.
* • •
An Egyptian papyrus contains a
record of a sitdown strike in an
alabaster quarry in the Second
Century A.D. The young man
managing the quarry for his father
wrote the old gentleman about it.
Seems some sections of the quarry
were more desirable to work in
than others, One gang that was
ordered by the foreman to leave a
desirable section for a less desir-
able one went on a sitdown strike.
The words "sit down" are used in
the letter, The foreman reported:
"Some of the amen came to ale and
said: 'We are going out to our old
place and sit down until port bring
tis word'" — presumably of the
rescinding of the order, The threat
was successful, The Wren won their
Point, and were not transferred,
* * *
The shipmasters of vessels in the
grain trade from the river port of
Arles in Southern France notified
the official in charge of the export
of wheat to Italy that they would
strike if their demands were not
met, The official thought their de-
mands were justified and asked the
proper official in Ronne to sec that
the inequities were corrected, What
happened isn't recorded, but as
there were 110 complaints of the
stopping of the wheat shipments
it is our guess that the demands of
the shipmasters were stet.
There are several reports of
strikes by the menders of temple
utensils in Jerusalem,,, As there
were few slaves in Palestine it was
not possible to sleet the strike
threat in the usual way and skilled
labor had to he imported from
Alexandria, Egypt.
* * *
There is a record of another
strike, or threatened strike, at Per-
galnon, Asia Minor, in the Fifth
Century. A builder's crew had talc -
en a job at too lose a price, or else
the men had been offered more on
another job — it isn't clear which
— and so threatened to quit work
until lite matter was adjusted.
Finally there was a sitdown strike
in the Roman Mint in the latter
part of the 'Third Century, The
Emperor Aurelian had found evid-
ence of graft in the issuing of sub-
standard coins and had closed the
mint, The IVOrkinen then fortified
themselves in the building.
Troops were sent to get them out
and several thousand men were
killed ill the fighting.
* * *
We don't know of any particular
lessons to be derived from these
bits of ancient history, Perhaps
they might be taken as confirmato-
ry evidence that 1111111011 nature
doesn't change much through the
centuries, '.[cn always have been
anxious to improve their condition,
and collective bargaining has been
one of the obvious methods. Iuci-
dentally, we find that in England
strikes were illegal until 182.1, and
in France until 1864.

Canada's Biggest
Transport Plane
History was made in Canadian
civil aviation last week when Can-
ada's newest and biggest four -en -
gilled, 4(1 -passenger transport plane
which reportedly will fly faster at
high altitudes than any other plane
in the world was christened "North
Star" at Montreal,
The plane will be able to fly 3,500
miles without stopping and as high
as 28,(100 feet. \laxinttlul cruising
speed is 325 utiles per hour, but it
usually 1611 be operated at speeds
between 210 and 300 miles an hour,
depending on the length of the
flight,
It will be used in trans-.\tlantic,
international and transcontinental
services.
In had weather the "North Star"
can be guided right down the run-
way by radio.
The "North Stars" engines have
a take off power of 7,000 horse
power.
The comfortable interior of the
air liner incorporates the Itlalll
cabin, a galley, a cabin attendants'
station and magazine racks. Dress-
ing rooms, lavatory compartments
and resting places for the crew are
adjacent to the main cabin,
Just No Ships
For Passengers
Canada - Bound
A British 'Transport Ministry an-
nouncement that only 20 per cent
of the transatlantic passenger ac-
colunuuodation available in August
and September will be reserved for
government-sponsored persons is
expected to have little effect on the
thousands waiting in Britain for a
berth to Canada.
'1'ltet•e just aren't any ships,
Shipping officials see small like-
lihood of :anything like normal traf-
fic being resumed between the
United I\itigdonl and North Am-
erica until next March or April.
Some will be lucky enough to
get crossings on the Queen Eliza-
beth after her initial run in Octo-
ber. Others may be accommodated
on the Canadian Pacific Steam-
ships' new Empress of Canada —
the former Duchess of Richmond—
which may slake two trips before
the year -cud. '1'hc rest will have to
wait until other liners become
available next spring,
Company , officials said they
know of no ships which will be re-
leased in the immediate future from
the movement of troops and depen-
dents. '\'his traffic to Canada is
expected to be pretty well com-
pleted in November.
Trip To Britain
For Champion
Tractor Plowmen
The President of the Ontario
l'lownu'n's Association, \ir. Gor-
don Mc( ia1'in, of Scaforth, an-
nounces that free trips to Britain
for champion tractor plowmen will
be an outstanding feature of the
international Plowing Match to be
held at Port Albert .lirport, near
Goderich, Ontario, on October 15,
16, 17 and 18. Elimination contests
in preparation for this great event
will be held at some seventy branch
plowing matches conducted annu-
ally throughout the Province.
The grand prizes will be trips to
Great Britain for First and Second
prize winners, accompanied by a
coach -manager. To be known as
the "Esso Open Tractor Class".

SPOTS OF SPORTS
By FRANK MANN HARRIS
+- ("A Six Bit Critic") ....
As a not -too -serious student of
the spurt of baseball it has long
scented to us, as it has to many
others, that there should be an
entirely different system for rat-
ing the efforts of the pitchers. lit
batting, or in fielding, a player is
pretty much on his ow'n; and it is
just about as easy—or hard—for a
man to Itit .350 or field .01911 on a
front -running leant as it is 011 a
tail ender. But a pitcher's success,
or lack of it, depends so much on
his team-mates that to rate a
heaver who pitches 18 winning
gauges for, say, The Toronto Maple
Leafs as less efficient than one who
hurls 20 winners for, say, The
11[ont'cal Royals, just doesn't seem
to add up to common sense. Yet
that's the way it works out.
* * *
An illustration of the point we
are trying to make—and whoever
it was hollered 'six to five lie don't
make it' is out of order—is the
case of Phil Marchildon, an On-
tario lad condemned to do his
pitching on behalf of the Philadel-
phia .\thlctics. At the present time
of writing 101r, \lar hildon had just
turned in his ,eleventh victory for
the .\'s, and he will finish up the
500(4011 with a mark of, possibly,
fourteen or fifteen wins.
* * *
Which will put Ilius fairly far
down in the pitchers' standings,
and make hint appear decidedly un-
spectacular as compared with hot-
shots such as 1301) Feller, Ila(
Ne\wltouser, Dave Ferris and sev-
eral others, But while we're not
going away out on a limb and
claiming that Mr. Marchildon is in
a class with the three mentioned,
still, if you'll figure out what he
has accomplished in the light of
what he has had to \vork with, we
drink you'll agree he rates a whole
lot higher than the cold statistics
will tend to show,
* * *
For \[archildon's eleventh vic-
tory brought the Athletics' total
of wins for the season up to a cool
forty—sante being a' mere forty-
seven fewer than the league -lead-
ing Boston Red Sox had on the
credit side of the ledger at that
point. And it wouldn't take a very
(lefty knowledge of higher mathe-
matics to argue that if Phil had
been getting the saute sort of sup-
port, offensively and defensively,
as the I3ostou heavers arc favored
with, his twins might very well have
run close to the two -dozen mark,
\\'bleb would put hint right up
among the picture -cards,
* * *
Batt according to the hallowedlaws of baseball, Marchildon is the
property of the Athletics— which
means the property of Cornelius
\lacGillicuddy, a gentleman with-
in reaching distance of his first
century, who remembers when eggs
were a dime a dozen and butter
three pounds for a quarter and
who, from the way it is rumored
he rewards his hired help, thinks
that those arc still the current
prices for such groceries Mr
\lac(iillicudd' owns the Athletics—
has managed them since the year
1901—and has all the money he
ewer expects to need. His team
has been down around the cellar
so long that it Inas become like
- home to hit; and, like many clderll
people, he hates to move.
• * *
, So he's guile 0011te11t t0 sit right
where he is, throwing out annual
promises that he's building for the
future and, in all probability,
quietly chuckling to himself over
the suckers who come ottt to watch
his teams in such paying numbers,
All of which may be very much
O.K.' for 101r. 1acGillicuddy, but
mighty hard — in our opinion al
least — on players who are getting
no younger fast, and who can SCI
no possible chance of properly ex-
hibiting the talents they possess,
• * *
For if ,Marchildon — to get back
to him again — were to just plain
refuse to play ball for the Athletics
any longer, those sante sacred laws
of baseball would offer him just
about two options. IIe could volun-
tarily retire, to sit and fish till all
the sap had departed from his
pitching arm; or Mr. I\facGilii-
cuddy, in the greatness of his heart,
might trade hint to some outfit like
the St. Louis Browns or Washing-
ton Senators, where he would find
conditions — and opportunities --
much the same or even more so.
And yet some folks claim that ball-
players are a trifle screwey when
they talk of having a Union that
really operates.
1 * *
Yet it may be — for all we know
to the contrary — that Marchildon
is quite satisfied with the spot that
he's in, and that we are getting
ourself all hot and bothered to no
good purpose whatever. For in
sport, as in a lot of other things,
a great deal depends on your point
of view. As for instance that of a
youthful friend of ours who, this
past summer: I11s bolt spcnc rig
11111011 of his 1'atation-time Searetts
iug for lost balls on a nearby golf
course and — quite incidentally—
re-selling (hent to golfers in search
of a bargain.
Not so long ago a fraily import-
ant tournament was held on this
course, and we asked our young
friend just how—front his sideline
view-point—all those top-notchers
looked as they passed him in re-
view"0h, those guys are no good
— they (keep their shots too
straight," he replied, "What I like
to watch is a golfer like Mr. Jones
—he hooks two or three out of
bounds every time he tees off, and
1 only wish there were a whole lot
more like hint."
* * *
So there now, I1onourable Dubs,
take heart! Worry no longer over
those slices, those hooks, those
foozled long approach shots! For
you, too, have your ardent admir-
ers—even if tltey don't appear un-
til you have passed out of sight,

TREASURE
OF THE SEA
By George E. 'A'alsk
SYNOPSIS
('illi"1'1:It 11: Circumstances
force Dick and Pettigrew to get
Into different lifeboats, The boats
Mike to separate in the storm. .\
wave upsets and sinks the boat in
which Dick Is tiding. De saves
himself by clinging to a few boards
torn from the boat. Everyone else
drowns. Atter three tortured days,
he fishes in a mass of seaweed and
eats the shrimps he finds. These re-
store his will to live Ile dimly
males out what seems to be a sail
In tho distance. The sail vessel ap-
proaches and Dick sees that It Is a
two -masted lugger, probably a
fishing boat. The crew pull Dick
aboard, They are all black men of
the mlcod Indian and Negro stork
called Carib. The evil -looking cap-
tain, Tucu, Is part white.
CHAPTER 111
Dick concluded that he would
be a hard customer to deal with,
and it would be much better to
court his friendship than to pro-
voke his enmity.
Black Burley, the Mate, was
nearly as tall and powerful as the
skipper, but his black shiny face
and swarthy limbs proclaimed the
pure Carib Negro.
While he was eating and drink-
ing, Captain Tucu grunted and
broke the silence.
"Where'd y'drift from?" he ask-
ed gruffly, his tvords singularly
free from the taint of his black
ancestor's dialect.

wrecked four day's ago," Dick re-
plied, wiping his mouth. "Struck
something in the storm, reef or n -
other ship, and went down in half
an hour. Four hundred people
'aboard—men, tvouten and little
children. I was in the last boat
that left her, and we capsized—
Glory! It vas awful!"
* * *
Ile closed his eyes an instant as
if to shut out the memory of it.
When he opened them again, Cap•
tain 'i'ucu was asking eagerly:
".\nythin' left? Lots o' wreck-
age from a steamer floats."
"Nothing but the small boats,"
replied Dick, "and they were filled
with people."
The half-breed nodded hir head
and unuttered something to his
mate in a dialect that Dick could
not translate.
"Where was this steamer?" de-
manded 'Tucu, turning suddenly
to Dick. "What latitude?"
Dick Jordan shook his head. "1
don't know. I'm not a sailor."
The skipper's face clouded with
disappointment, and an ugly scar
across his left cheek showed red,
mottled with white. Dick did not
like the looks of it.
"Carib renegades," he reasoned
to himself, "Sea scavengers—half
fishermen, half pirates They'd kill
me without batting an eyelash if
it suited their purpose."
IIe glanced past the semi -circle
of black faces and he saw the
wide, heaving, limitless sea The
shock of being adrift upon it for
another period awakened his mind
from its dull lethargy. lie had to
stay aboard the lugger until they
reached shore or met another ship.
He smiled craftily, and spoke
slowly.
"Wait a minute, captain! Conic
to think of it, I'm wrong. I heard
the wireless operator calling for
help and giving the steamer's posi-
tion. I'm something of a wireless
expert thyself. It was—it was—"
He hesitated and cocked his
head sideways in the attitude of
one recalling something that clud•
ed his memory. "I got it", he ad-
ded a moment later. "It was
North latitude 13—and 80 or 81
--yes, that must have been the
longitude -80 or 81."
To Dick's surprise, Captain Tu -
cu broke in abruptly:
"The Roncador Bank!"
Black Burley nodded his }head,
and rumbled: "We can make it
in five hours."
Roncador Bank was a mystery
to Dick. They seemed to know
where that was, Perhaps, after
all, that was the explanation of
the queer accident. The City of
Bahia had struck the reef in the
night of the storm and foundered
as a result of it.
"1f 1 can make myself of service
to them, they will keep ate,"
Dick nursed to hiutself, "There-
fore, 1 must make myself in(lis-
pensable. But how:"
"If 1 sail with then), I'll know
too much—find out things they'll
want to keep secret. 'Therefore
I'll be no better off in the end than
now. They'll never put me
ashore. On some dark night, I'll
disappear, unless—"
His mind stopped abruptly. Ile
was jolted out of Itis reverie by
the shadow of the skipper in front
of hint. When he looked up, how-
ever, he was smiling in spite of
the shock,
"You rescued Inc in the nick of
time, captain," Ile said pleasantly.
"Another hour in the water, and
I'd been done for. I'm mighty
grateful."
Captain Tucu nodded, but made
no comment. Dick felt that his
fate was hanging by a slender
thread. The indecision on the oth-
er's face was menacing; but the
smile never faded from Dick's
lips. IIe continued easily:
"When we get to the spot where
the steamer went down, I may
help you find sonlethi.tg of value"
The captain's face grew sud-
denly and eager. "What's that?"
he demanded, stepping nearer,
"Smuggling, you know," Dick
went on, feeling his way careful-
ly, "isn't a lost art. It's still prac-
ticed."
* * *
He winked and grinned, with
the intent of simulating special
knowledge. Tucu stepped closer
and scowled, but behind the scowl
was an eager expectancy.
"I"was stnugglin'?" he deman-
ded, thrusing his face close to
Dick's,
"That isn't a fair question, is it,
captain?" laughed Jordan. "If I
confessed to it you could—could—
oh, yell," he added, slugging his
shouhters. "I guess you tvouldn't
arrest rue—not if we divided the
stuff!' 1,c winked again, anxious
"at heart but on the surface smil-
ing and complacent. Would the
Wan fall for the bait?
The skipper was eyeing him,
half in doubt, half in eager ex-
pectancy. All the avarice of his
nature was in his eyes. But he
was slow and craft'—not child-
like as his half Carib brothers.
"What is it?' he grumbled,
checking his impatience.
"\Vhy specify?" retorted Dick,
half rising. "It's enough that it's
valuable—a rich haul."
A gleans of anger shot from
the other's eyes. To pacify hint,
Dick added:
"I picked them up in South Am-
erica at a big bargain. If 1 get
them in the United States, they'll
be worth—worth—well, I can't get
theta through. The City of Ba-
hia's gone to the bottom. So, of
course, the jewels were lost, too".
* * *
Captain 'Tucu interrupted with
an oath. "Y'lcft 'cat aboard l"
he growled. "Y' didn't have sense
enough to save 'cn1?"
"I -cold on, captain! If you're
going to cuss me for a fool, ['Il
shut up, and you'll never get a
sight of the jewels. I said they'd
gone down with the steamer.
Wouldn't that be the natural con-
clusion of their owners when they
heard of the foundering of the City
of Bahia? For all I know every
mother's son aboard, ezcept mc,
was lost. You couldn't expect the
to save smuggled goods under
such circumstances, could you?
That lets me out as an agent for
—for—"
He smiled craftily, watching the
expression of the Half-breed's face
and eyes. Ile was following him
—nibbling at the bait, Dick drew
an unconscious sigh of relief,
The skipper was eyeing him,
half in doubt, half in eager expec-
tancy.
"They didn't go down then?"
snapped Tucu, "Ye—ye—got
'cm?"
Dick chuckled at Itis eagerness.

CHRONICLES
of GINGER FARM
Last Friday I think we all felt
like saying-13ring out the band,
run up the flag—we are through
with the harvest."
Yes, '"all is safely gathered in"
but not without incident. There
were just about six or seven more
loads to get in when, in thawing
up the first bundle on 'Thursday
morning, the solid oak bent to
which the track is attached, splin-
tered and broke, crashing right into
the stow over the swing beans. Of
course, a huge bundle of sheaves
%vent with it. Partner was halfway
ttp the ladder on his way (0 the
ltlow' when it happened. 1Iad he
been in the ntow dear knows what
would have been the result. As it
was no one was hurt but it meant
a lot of extra work -- pitching
sheaves straight from the wagon
into the stow. Of course the track
can be fixed but, like so many other
repair jobs, the question is —
"when?"
On Friday We celebrated the end
of harvest by taking in a Show—
a very appropriate show and com-
ing at an opportune lime—"State
Fair". It is a long time since we
enjoyed a movie like we did that
one. 1t didn't seen) like a movie—

"If I had theta;' he said easily,

He pointed to the collection of
the things from his pockets he
had spread out in the sun to dry,
The skipper scowled in perplex-
ity. His face assumed crafty sus-
picion, as he turned upon Dick
with an ugly leer,
"If y'know where they are," tic
said slowly, "ye'd keep a whole
skin by tcllin' me, I ain't wastin'
time talkin'. Y'know where they
are?"
"Sure, captain — or pretty near

tached to 'em—and a float to the
end. Reckon I could pick up that
float,"

which, after all, Is what a good
show should be — although many
are far front it. Or are they? I
suppose what I really mean is that
"State Fair" is life as we like to
visualize it, whereas "Lost \Vicek-
IEnd" ntay be just as true an inter-
pretation of life but hardly the kind
to give one any satisfaction or up-
lift.
As I sat down to write this col-
umn 1 was just thinking of all the
things that can happen in one
week—not just on this farm but
all through this or any community.
'fake this district for Instance:
from one farm a frail little woman
was taken to hospital; a shower
was given for a returned man and
his English bride; a young mother
was operated on for appendicitis;
a little boy was badly bitten by a
dog; a well -driller moved in and
began drilling for water on a farm
where it was urgently needed. All
that within the space of a mile—
to say nothing of the things that
happened that I know nothing
about. And yet some folk think
nothing ever happens in the coun-
try. Actually a whole story could
he woven around each of those in-
cidents — a story that would be
chock full of human interest.
But back to Ginger Farm. It is
nearly a month since Daughter was
home. And the reason? — car
trouble. 1 was talking to Daughter
yesterday and of course I suggested
train or bus service as an alterna-
tive, "Olt mother," was the answer,
"don't suggest it. Only an emerg-
ency will make me travel by traits
or bus again for a while. It is
really awful."
Theo I remembered the reason.
Last time and friend Bert carate by
bus, Bob took them down to the
Queen Elizabeth on a bank holiday
night to catch the return bus from
there. They stood waiting for over
an hour while bus after bus, jam-
med to the doors, went whizzing
by. Finally they stood on the high-
way where a passing motorist took
pity on them and gave th•ctn a lift
to Toronto. So that's how they got
back that time. Niece Joy does a
little better coating up from IIantil-
ton although yesterday she had to
stand tnist of the way.
It looks as if the next few weeks
around here will be like a game of
"Washington Poat". Thursday
means exit for Betty. Saturday Joy
finishes her hospital field work in
Hamilton and will be here for an
indefinite holiday and after that
McGill for her. Sometime in Sep-
tember We exp(.ct another ucice,
and after that family comings and
goings are problematical. Coote to
think of it there seems to have
been a redundancy of females this
summer, doesn't there?
I have been telling Joy that while
she is here I think I will leave the
fancily to her tender mercies and
take a couple of days off myself,
'l'11at is one idea for a holiday but
yesterday 1 hit on another. 1 told
theca if they would all go away and
leave Inc at home alone it would
be just as goods The only hitch
to that plait is the fact there would
be still cows to milk and chickens
to feed. Conte to think of it I don't
really want to run away from work
—I only want less of what 1 don't
want to leo and more time for what
I want to do—if you know what I
team.

The Perils of Covetousness
Exodus 20:17; Proverbs 11:23, 24;
Luke 12:13-21,
Golden Text, — I f e that trustclh
in his riches shall fall: but the
righteous shall flourish as a branch.
— Proverbs 11:28.
The Tenth Commandment
The 'Tenth Commandment is the
most inward of all the command-
ments because it forbids not an ex-
ternal act, but a hidden mental
slate, which is the root of nearly
every sin against a neighbor. Covet-
ousness is the unlawful desire for
something which is another's,
The righteous man lives to give
all possible good to others but the
wicked man will receive the just re-
ward of evil, the displeasure of Al-
mighty God.
Generosity, whether in thought,
word or deed, brings peace and joy
in this life. But the niggardly', those
who wi(ltl101(1 \stat is due to others,
will suffer Toss.
Folly of Covetousness
The parable of covetousness pic-
tures the man who was concerned
solely with his own affairs. His
, rapidly increasing wealth brought
him anxiety and care. He was per-
plexed to know where to put his
fruits.
Having built his barns and be-
stowed Itis good tiled!' he would
take his ease. The rich elan neither
addressed God nor his fellow ratan,
only his selfish self, "my soul", He
told his soul that he had "much
goods laid up for many years." But
Itis soul had nothing laid up, only
his body, and that not for many
years, but for a few short hours.
The place to lay up goods for many
years is not new Karns, but heaven.
They are laid up there by giving
them away.
A Fool in God's Sight
God cut short his selfish pro-
jects, Itis foolish dream, by calling
Itin1 from time into eternity. 1)cath
makes the richest man a pauper in
a moment, The question Christ
asks, then "whose shall these things
be"? brings home to us (he uncer-
tainty of riches. They are ours only
while we live, How necessary it is
Give Baby Air
If you would save hint from
malty coughs and colds and pos-
sibility of other ailments, get baby
out into the fresh air as often as
possible. Officers of the Child and
Maternal Hygiene division of the
Department of National Health
and Welfare at Ottawa, warn mo-
thers against leaving little ones in
hot, stuffy kitchens, or in rooms
where they are several adults. Con-
finements of infants, they say,
make then) pale and irritable, and
upset their feeding, They need as
much air as the doctor thinks good
for them.

CANADA PACKERS LIMI'TED
REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS
The nineteenth year of Canada Packers Limited closed March
28111, 1946. The following is a comparison of operations with
those of the preceding year:—
s'car Ended Year Ended

Per Ib. of Product sold—approx. 1/8c per lb. 1/7c per lb. 16,0%
(During each of the war years, — as explained in preceding
Annual Reports—a portion of the profit was set aside as Wartime
Inventory Reserve, In year ended March, 1945, the amount set
aside for this purpose was $581,000. 1n total the sums so set
aside amount to $4,000,000. It is hoped this total will prove
sufficient. Accordingly, in the year under review, no reserve
has been set aside for this purpose.)
TL..t share structure of the Company is: -
400,000 'A' Shares
which carry a cumulative preferential
dividend of $ 1.50 per Share.
800,000 '13' Shares
non -cumulative,
present dividend 50c per Share.
Net profit (}1,816,781) therefore is equivalent to:—
Qn 'A'lares $4.54 per Share.
On ail Shares $1,51 per Share.
The table below sets forth the record of the year's operations in
terms of Sales.
Out of each Dollar of Sales there was paid:—

The operations of the Packing Industry are of importance to
all groups of the community.
Inasmuch as -meat is an essential food, the welfare of all citizens
is involved, — as consumers. Their interest requires that the
meats should be processed in the most palatable manner, and
that all nutritional elements should be safeguarded.
(in respect of nutrilion, exigencies of the war period have lel
to important advances. Food elements of high value are no
being saved for human consumption, which formerly tverc a c.i
chiefly in feeds for live stock. Most of these are at present Prins"
shipped to Europe in the form of canned meats, and are being;
distributed through the LI N R RA organization.)
Besides its interest as consumer, one group is specially 111 ere -ted
on the economic side, — viz., the producers of live stock.
In the year under review, out of each sales dollar,
producers receive,( 81,3 3 Coils
This is less Than the return of the preceding year,
which was 82.35 ants
'F11e lower return to the producer'was due to an
increase in the cost el materials and wages:—
I.;ill year 16.21) cents
This year 17.11 cents
The suns available for Shareholders is also reduced:—
Last year 1.05 cents
This year .;. i cents
V -E Day was May 8th, 1045.
V -,l Day was August 151h, 1945.
So that, at the close of the Company's fiscal year (March 28111,
1916), the war in Europe had been over 101/2 months; that in
the Pacific 71/2 nlonlhs. Nevertheless, conditions within the
Food Industry were still being determined by factors deriving
Irons war, more completely than in any war year proper.
The end of the war found world reserves of food at the lowest
level of modern times. Cn the other hand, it threw upon the
Allies the duty of feeding the populace of enemy as we:1 as of
allied countries.
The food so urgently needed had to conte from the surplus -
producing countries. Of these, Canada is one of the chief.
No one would claim that Canada has done all possible to cope
with this food crisis. In a world in which hundreds of millions
are undernourished, and in which scores of millions are living
on the verge of starvation, consumption of food in Canada is al
a higher level than ever before.
This is not due to indifference.
In a country where food is abundant, it is easy to forget that,
*Footnote
Although elle Producer received a less percentage of the Packer's Sales
Dollar, nevertheless the actual prices paid for live stock were higher; as
appears front the following table:

thousands of miles away, food is scarce. Besides, Canada Is her-
self feeling the pinch of scarcity in certain foods, especially
edible fats and sugar. 'f his fact tends to obscure her overall
abundance.
Canada's contribution has been substantial. She has curtailed
(by rationing) her consumption of certain foods — especially
meats and butter. And in total very large quantities of foods
have been shipped to Great Britain and Europe.
For the year 1945, these shipments included:—
Bacon - - - 447,000,000 bs.
Other Pork products 10,000,000 hs,
Beef • - - - - 184,000,000 hs.
Cheese - - - 133,000,000 hs.
Canned Meats - - 95,000,000 hs.
Mutton and Lamb - 7,000,000 hs.
Evaporated Milk, Milk

ed Milk - - - • 25,000,000 lbs.
Shell Eggs - - 60,000,000 lbs.

Canned Fish - • 57,000,000 lbs.
1,042,000,000 lbs. — 321,000 tons
The above is the list of 'protective' foods.
Canada's major contribution in 1945, how-
ever, was in the form of cereals. Shipments
of these were:—
Wheat 181,300,000 bushels
Oats 13,400,000 bushels
Barley 4,000,000 bushels
Flour 9,900,000 barrels

in no previous year had the enormous potentialities of Canadian
Agriculture been so fully demonstrated.
Live Stock Marketings
Compared to the previous year, Cattle slaughterings during
1945 were heavy, while Hog slaughterings were light,

January
s:.lanuary to July, inclusive, 19.15 - 3,625,000 Hogs
January to July, inclusive, 1946 - 2,001,000 flogs
Decrease 1045 to 1010 - - - 1,024,000 Ilogs-28%
Decrease 1014 to 10-16 - - - 3,040,000 Bogs -54
Cattle marketings, on the other hand, in the early war years
increased slowly.
I3v 1014 the increase (as compared to 1930) was - - 55`:c
ho•vever, in 1045 insi'ected slaughterings of Cattle
reached an all-time high, viz. 1,820,000 head
This was an increase over 1944 of 31',:',
and an increase over 1930 of 109',
In retrospect, this variation in trend (as between (;aloe and
Hog production) is easy to understand.
In the early war .\ ears, the pressure in respect of live stock
production was to increase Hog numbers. When Britain's sup-
plies of bacon from Europe were cut off (in June, 1940), Can-
ada hec ante the sole external source of supply for Wiltshire
Sides.
Canadian Farmers were urged to produce every flog possible.
A further factor counted heavily. ()n Canadian farms, and in
Canadian elevators, was stored a vast quantity of grain, —
wheat, oats, h;u•Iey, — for which 110 cash market existed. The
only way in which this grain could he converted to cash, was
through the medium of Eye stock.
Moreover, in those years, Hogs brought back to the Farmer a
higher return for the gain fed than did other forms of live stock.
This combination of factors culminated in the phenomenal flog
nu'rketings of 1041.
However, by the middle of 19.14, the reserves of grain had hien
much reduced. 'There was not enough feed in the country, to
continue 1-Iog production'en the scale of that year. Moreover, a111
eager demand had sprung up in United States (alt high prices)
for every bushel of feed ,grain which Canada was wiling to
let go.
13y this time, the swing towards Cattle production had already
set in. For Cattle could be produced (relatively) w'itlh little
grain. They could he fattened on the grass in Sumner and car-
ried over the Winter on 'roughage', — hay, straw, and corn
stalks. Moreover, by 1944, Cattle prices had caught up v. ith
Hog prices. Cattle were bringing back to the Farmer a return
equal to or better than that for Hogs.
And the final and decisive factor was that the labour involved in
raising Cattle was much less than that required for Hogs. Hogs
had to be fed twice daily -365 days of the year. On the other
hand, Cattle could be turned on to the pastures in Sumner, and
roughed in Winter.
By 1944 the Farmer was feeling the strain of the war effort.
In response to constant appeals, he had enormously increased
production, in spite of the fact that farm manpower had been
reduced more than 20 per cent. And he naturally swung to the
less laborious form of live stock production.
I Ile result has been that, at the present time, Cattle marketings
are at an all -lime high, whereas flog marketings for the first
seven months of 1946, while still 4r,`' above those of 1030,
are 51'; helot' the peak of 1944.
This rever,a1 in trend, as between Cattle and Hog production,
was natural, But it carries a hazard to the long-term interest of
Caadian Agriculture \which the Farmer should have very much
in mind. For Ho,,s and not Cattle are the keystone of Canada's
Live Stock Industry. This statement is based upon fundamental
economic factors.
Cstnada can produce flogs in competition with the world. A1,d
she cannot so produce Cattle.
Canada is a country of vast agricultural area, and relatively
sparse population. She produces, and must continue to produce,
a great agricultural surplus.
More than upon any other factor, her economic welfare depends
upon the prosperity of her Agriculture.
And, the prosperity of her Agriculture depends upon marketing
the 'surplus' through the medium of those products
(a) for which an adequate world market exists;
(h) for which the world price will return a profit to the Can-
adian producer.
Those products are determined by Canada's soil, climate and
geography. In the main, they are Wheat and Bacon.
In the past (particularly in the 1920's) Canada has at times
sought to market her surplus almost entirely in the farm of
Wheat.
This policy brought disaster, because the world market could
not absorb all of her Wheat. And, though for the moment the
demand is unlimited, it would eventually bring disaster again.
But world markets WILL absorb Canada's total agricultural sur-
plus if presented chiefly in the form of Wheat plus Bacon.
For Bacon, the open market of the world is Great Britain.
For sixty years Canada has had a place in the British 13acon Mar-
ket, but never better than second place,—and often worse
The circumstances of the war have placed her at the moment
in undisputed first position. And the maintenance of that posi-
tion should he the plain objective of Canadian agricultural
policy.
Is this objective attainable?
The answer is:— Yes, but not without a careful and intelligent
long -terns plan.'Such a plan must inciude:-
1. Constant improvement of the quality of Canadian Hogs.
Much has been accomplished, but much remains to he
done.
2. Improvement of methods of husbandry; — to produce
Hogs at the lowest possible cost. In this the chief tactor is
the feeding of a balanced ration.
3. To increase production to a level —
(a) which can be maintained year by year;
(h) which will permit exports to Britain in quantities suf-
ficient to maintain Canada as her chief source of sup -
4. To send the I3acon forward in even week -to -week ship-
ments. The Canadian Meat Board has already proved
• that this can he done, a fact never before demonstrate.i.
Of this programme the first and fundamental step is to reverse
the trend of the last two years, and restore Hog production to
an adequate level. That level should be such as to supply Can-
adian requirements of Pork products and, in addition, provide
shipments to Great 13ritain of 400/500 million pounds yearly.
Prospect for Cattle Prices
Cattle marketings are now at an all-time high.
Does it follow, (from the argument of the preceding section),
that in respect of Cattle production Canada is now in an unsafe
position?
Not, at any rate, for three years. The Minister of Agriculture
has indicated in Parliament (March 26th, 1946) that the United
Kingdom will require all the Beef which Canada can spare in
1946 and 1917 ttnd probably in 1918, and that discussions were
continuing for the extension of the current contract to the end
of 1947.
However, Canadian I3eef can not Hold a permanent place in the
British market. For Canada can not produce Cattle in coptpeti-
lion with South America and Australasia. Al some date, it seems
likely that the pre-war situation will he restored, when two out-
lets only will he available for Canadian Cattle—
!. The domestic. I3eef market.
2. An nutlet for a limited number of Cattle in United States.
The domestic market will be a much broader one than in the
pre-war period. In the last three years consumption of Beef in
Canada has averaged 0.11,42 lbs, per capita per annum. The cor-
responding figure for the three pre-war years was 55 lbs. This
increase in domestic consumption amounts to 112,000,000 ills.
yearly, equivalent to approximately 240,000 Cattle,
And a still further expansion of the domestic market is possible,
through a programme of co-operation between Producers and
Packers.
The outlet in United Males is restricted hut most valuable. And
if is hoped that when the time arrives to renew the (nowt' sus-
pended) trade agreement, an increase in this movement may be
arranged.
On Ilse whole, the near-term outlook for Cattle prices in Can-
ada is more promising than in any preceding 'peace' period.
For the long future, however, the hig fact is that Hogs and not
Cattle are the livesto-'k nled;um through which Canada's surplus
must he cleared.
Since the close of the war, efficiency of plant operations has
steadily improved. This has been due chiefly to the return to
employment of experienced workmen following release from
the Armed Forces. An important additional factor has been 1he
attitude of co-operation which has replaced the somewhat dis-
turbed atmosphere of the war period.
For this, the officers of the Company wish to express their
thanks and appreciate n to employees of all ranks.
As in previous years, an important share of the profits was dis-
tributed to employees in the form of Bonus.
The suns distributed at the year-end \vas - • - - $1,200,000
That this was a substantial distribution is evident from
comparison with the following figures:—
Net Profit was - - - 81,816,181
Dividends to Shareholders were - - - 51,000,000
Since the policy of Bonus distribution was begun (11 years
ago), total distribution has been - - - 87,368,000
