Why, we couldn't buy enough food S to keep our families healthy under inflation. For wages and salaries never catch up to prices when they start to soar! How would we like to pay $1.10 a ir,IF dozen for eggs? You say it can't happen? Don't forget it's already happened right here in this Domin- ion, during the last war. And it will happen again ... unless we're on our toes to keep the cost of living down. Every Canadian must face this challenge! It's our responsibility. But be of good heart. Living costs' have risen LESS in Canada than °fly, anywhere else. Canada leads the world in the fight against inflation. HERE'S HOW IT'S DONE— In 1941, Canada determined to control the cost of living. Price ceilings were established on wages, rentals and commodities; subsidies were paid on essential foods; goods in short supply were rationed ... so that everyone could get their fair share at a price they could afford to pay! But control of prices is a two-way responsibility. It needs your support ro if it is to continue working effectively. So make this Pledge Today ! PROMISE to give my support to keeping the cost of living down. I will buy only what 1 need -1 will observe the ceil- ing whether buying or selling goods or services. I'll pay off old debts, save for the future, invest in Victory Bonds and War Savings Certificates—and will support taxes which help lower the cost of living. 0 Poi 1 �4 ' Published by THE BREWING INDUSTRY (ONTARIO) to reveal the' dangers which inflation can mean to all the -people of Canada..

The Packing Plants of Ontario, which process and ship your livestock for export, ARE SERIOUSLY SHORT OF MEN. Every available Farmer of Ontario is urged to offer his services for employment in one of the Packing Plants in this province as soon as the essential work of the farm is completed. OVER 1,000 men are required to start in the month of September alone. Good hourly wageswill be paid. Transportation to the plant will be provided. Assistance will be given in arranging board and room. With full staffs, the Packing Plants of Canada have ample capacity to handle even the tremendously increased numbers of cattle, sheep and swine, which Canadian farmers have ready for market this year. When operating to capacity the Packing Plants can keep the market cleared and livestock can be slaughtered, processed and shipped at its most profitable time, when it is at its market peak. Thus, losses which occur when animals are held beyond the peak —through additional feeding costs, through falling away from peak condition and through the danger to price structures when supply threatens to exceed demand — are avoided. Last year several hundred Ontario farmers volunteered for work in the plants in processing their own products and protecting their own interests. Production for export this year has increased by 40%. Available manpower has shrunk by 28%. The Ontario Farm Service Force, in conjunction with Employment and Selective Service has undertaken the task of raising sufficient help from Ontario Farmers to keep Packing Plants operating to capacity this year. This department of the Ontario government's Department of Agriculture feels that this extension of its service is as vitally important to the interests of the farmers of this prov- ince as anything it has yet undertaken. The need of meat as a primary essential food to our Allied Armies, to the people of Great Britain and to the starving millions in countries being liberated by our victorious armies, is the basic consideration. In addition, efficient operation in the processing and marketing of livestock is necessary in protecting the greatest export market ever Opened to Canadian farmers. Your services are needed from now until spring. If you cannot devote that full period of time, a month or more will be of great assistance. OFFER YOUR SERVICES AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. R you cenaot go to work at once, call or write, stating that you will come, and at what date you will be available. Remember you will be serving your own best interests as well as playing a vital patriotic part in serving.., your country.. • for full information or offering your services, apply in person, phone or write to your nearest office of EMPLOYMENT AND SELECTIVE SERVICE or write to THE ONTARIO FARM SERVICE FORCE PARLIAMENT BUILDINGS, TORONTO Published under Authority of WP -450 DOMiNION•PROVINCIAL COMMITTEE ON 'FARM LABOUR -- AGRICULTURE — LABOUR EDUCATION
