BELL, F.C.I.C., Director of Publicity The C.N.E. is the major show window for Ontario, for its farm products, crops, livestock, poult­ ry, fruits and other products. Each year the Ontario Agricul­ tural College sponsors a large display. The Hon. T. L. Kennedy, Min­ ister of Agriculture, reports that the 19 48 value of these products exceeds $1,032,000,000.00. If a string of dollar bills represent­ ing this amount were placed end to end it would go around the earth at the equator three and three-quarters times. “We are all in this together." “Let us keep an even bal­ ance,” says the central panel of the exhibit. Illustrations point to the fact that the 4,000,000 people of this province in the end depend for their occupation and sustenance upon the products of the soil. This year’s theme of inter­ dependence is particularly time­ ly. With the aid of excellent photography and demonstration equipment, the ideas are artisti­ cally and effectively set out. A great central balance shows on its left pan one essential, “Farm products of high quality effi­ ciently produced at reasonable prices". Against this is weighed on the other balance, the coun­ terpart, “Industrial products of high quality efficiently produced at reasonable prices”. Expanding the idea still fur­ ther it is pointed out that money spent on quality food is an in­ vestment in security while money spent on nourishing food is an investment in health. Not all people realize that the bread winners of the 14,000,000 people in Canada depend upon the prosperity of agriculture for their jobs. Good products, good markets for livestock and money crops at reasonable prices mean higher standards of living for us all, wider purchases of clothing, cars and commodities, more travel, more freight, more radios, etc. Our striking feature, depicted by, graphs, was the similar re­ lationship of farm income in­ crease to employment increases, and industrial income increases to employment increases for the years 1920-1933 and 1949. Many who have seen previous exhibits remark favorably on the color and design of the 1950 show. The milk and meat products, and the fruit and vegetable pro­ ducts, are most tasty and delic­ ious. Ontario farmers and gardeners have every reason to be proud of the products of their labors. Mr. and Mrs. Jack Paisley, Jeanette and David, and Mr. and Mrs. Elmore Dunn returned to Toronto Friday after spend­ ing their holidays with Mr. and Mrs. George Dunn. Mr. Thos.
