The consumer can well afford it. The
percentage of the consumer's income that is
going for food has drepped from 25 percent
10 or 12 years ago to 20 percent or less at
present, Somehow exact figures are hard to
come by.
The farmers die as they are told and
blame the big bad unions for all this
increased spread in price of food and it is
partly true.
However, I have challenged a great many
people to show me where wages increased by
Union effort have reduced corporation
profits. So far I've had no takers,
It seems strange that the party that gets
most of it's campaign financial support from
the trade union membership was the only
party that promised to set up a Wage and
Price Review Board to investigate the
justification of wage and price increases.
If someone comes along and steals one of
my cattle, I expect the government police
force to locate the thief and protect my
interests.
Wouldn't it be logical for the government
to have a "police force" to protect me from
those who "steal" the profit on my cattle?
Currently, the dressed price for pork to
the farmer is about 26 cents, yet just last
week a chain grocery sale bill arrived at our
house offering a bargain on sides of pork at
43 cents - cut and wrap yourself. Seventeen
cents for dressing and handling!
Do farmers not want a fair deal?
Apparently they prefer a government that
hands out grants that force over production.
BY cARt.. HEMINGWAY
Well folks, we've bad an election and
after several million of our tax dollars have
been spent, all we got out of it was more of
the same,
I can't say that I'm much seirprised at the
results. In this part of Ontario, tradition
seems to be the basis of voting for the vast
majority of the electors, Much as I dislike
saying it, I can't help feeling that farmers
vote by tradition, heredity, or habit, more
than any other group,
Let's look at what has happened during
the past 2$ years of Conservative rule in
Ontario.
In 1944 the farmer received 58 cents of
the consumer's food dollar, while
distributors and processors received 42
cents.
In 1964 (sorry, but that was the latest
statistic I was able to get from the Ontario
Department of Agriculture and Food) the
position was reversed, Farmers received 42
cents and the handlers 58 cents. Seems to
me it wouldn't be so bad down on the farm
if we could shift back to 1944 percentages.
I won't burden you with a lot of figures,
so will only mention one product that
happened to come to my attention recently.
Within the last three months, a large box of
shredded wheat has increased in price by
two cents, which would probably mean
about $2.00 per year for the average family.
Not much is it? An increase of one cent per
box would give the farmer $2.40 per bushel
for Ontario wheat. Quite an improvement!
