Attend- ance far exceeded the hopes of your board of directors, and since there were no expenses allowed by the Ontario organ- ization, it was indicative of the genuine serious concern that livestock producers have in the marketing of their product. This is really a battle be- tween the power of people and money, and dollars are very obedient to their master. That the situation is serious was brought to use forcefully by the guest speaker, Oron Lee Staley, President of the Nation- al Farmers Organization of the United States. He told us of conditions in his country, and we can compare his statements to our situation. 1 will try to quote. Agricultural investment re- presents 13 per cent of all in- dustrial investment and the re- turns to agriculture is 4 per cent of industrial income. In recent years the farmers' share of the consumers' dollar has dropped from 58 per cent to 39 per cent, and is still drop- ping. Farmers in the United States are told what great strides they have made in efficiency, yet no other industry considers itself efficient unless it can show a. satisfactory increase in income. On this basis, agriculture can not be considered efficient. Unless we, as farmers, do a better job in this respect than we have done in the past, the fate of the family farm is seal- ed. The source of power for farmers is the fact that he has control of the food supply, yet: But this is fast slipping away from him: Mx. Staley gave an example of one 3,200 -acre farm owned by a company. Two of the shareholders are well known --Jack Benny and Mar- ilyn Munroe. The production is contracted to neighboring pro- cessors. The business in the ad- joining town dropped by 85 per cent (end of quotation). That this trend is taking place in Canada is quite evident in the broiler industry, and 1 was told just this week that one firm is contracting for eggs on the basis of 4 cents per dozen. The corporation supplies the layers and feed; the farmer, the building, water, lights, equip- ment and, I suppose, the litter. Remember this is a starting contract. If it proves attrac- tive I can easily visualize a neighbor offering to contract for 3%c, 3c or 21/2c to the very least possible. As you no doubt have noticed in the press, canning compan- ies are obtaining control of source of supply by renting the land for their crops. I was told that one large processor is buy- ing feeders and putting them out to feed on contract. The same is being done in 'Quebec with hogs. Soon there will be no market for farm -produced TOMATOES BETTER RIPENED QUICKLY Contrary to today's accepted practice, it pays to ripen toma- toes quickly after harvest and to hold them at a temperature of about 40 degrees F. until used. Method commonly used is to harvest tomatoes in the green or semiripe stage and to allow them to ripen in the course of marketing. This procedure failed to stand up in tests carried out at the federal experimental farm at Morden, Manitoba, this year. Researchers there concluded that the advantages of handling tomatoes in the firm green, or semi -ripe condition, were out- weighed by the improved quad• ity of re - r pened tomatoes marketed with at least some refrigeration.

The only defence for the farmer is the marketing of his product, in processed form, direct to the consumer.

Fertilizer has the power of drawing mois- ture say Ontario Department of Agriculture engineers, a n d this means that rust will form on many of the castings.
