Tao .Many Accidents on Farina`
The ..cold truth is that therrtlo of
!preventable accidents in agrtatiltufie
tie higher- than in any other inane
1141any hundreds of faam•elr;i,,anelpxbers
,c►f"'their"fmollies •aud.',wor3ieiii Alm
' f`arnjh are killed and *ally fit '1104 ds
injured ever year in 'Qanada as -.the:
result of accidents, most, of which
could have been prevented.
With, the tarp labor Shortage just
now so acute and when all out pro-
duotion of food 1.s so essential to .the
rwar• effort, the accident toll is par-
ticularly serious.
A survey has disclosed that ma-
chinery is the' chief source of farm•
work accidents that live stock runs
a: close second and that falls are -9n
third place. The wise farmer is he
who learning the cause of accidents
on his farm takes steps to eliminate
such causes and all possible, hazards.
For example, the fact that . 'loose
clothing causes .one-third of all farm
accidents involving' maehinery should
make anyone avoid that •particular
hazard like the plague.•
And- the ever-present threat of fire,
which annually destroys millions of
dollars worth of rural property, ought
'to be enough for a farmer to\ justify
devoting at least a part of one morn-
ing per month to looking round the
farm for' ,fire hazards, and accident
hazards, too:
Prevention of accidents means
avoiding making an acute farm labor
shortage more acute and also means
an even bigger contribution to food
production.

An ingiiry into farm housing .con-

figures, is .a, story of great human
need. For the first time, observes
Mr. Shefrin, in the tablfng in thee
House of. Commons, Ottawa,•, of the,•
final report of the Sub -committee on
Housing--and--Community Planning, Is
given report on. housing and com-
munity planning which does not deal
only with the shelter problem pf urb-
an dwellers, but makes specific re-
commendations, including,prop sale
for government assistance, designed
to raise substantially :the standard of
farm. housing. ' Government assist-
ance in the building of farm homes
may be a new concept in 'Canada,
but in the period .between the two
*ars, Britain, Belgium, France, Lat-
via, the Netherlands, Poland, Sweden,
Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia took
steps to improve the housing stand-
ard of their rural population; farm-
ers and farm laborers alike.
The Sub -committee has made speci-
fic recommendations,, - It stated that
at- least -125,000 new farm .buildings
were required -=of these, 100,000 for
replacement and 25,000 to provide
separate units for families forced to
double -up. This figure would have to
be revised if an increase in set-
tlement is contemplated. In addition
158,000 buildings are in need of ex-
ternal` repairs. This takes no ac-
count ofthe internal conditions and
facilities of farm homes.- It is recom,
mended that nearly 100;00.0 homes be
built in the first 10 years following
the peace -at the rate of 5,000 to 15,-
000 houses per year. Provisions are
to be Made for this building program
in a re -drafted National Housing. Act
which will include a special section
en farm housing which will recognize
the need for cottages for farin labor-

Post-war Problems Of Women con-
tains a section on the ;problems of
farm women, indicatingd; tl t,,, ni4er
present conditions • young women are

writes Frank Shefrin, Economics Di-
vision, Dominion Department of Agri-
culture, in the Economic Annalist,
Accordingly; the Sub -committee has
listed some special needs of the farm
women: It 'is recognized that 'the
woman on the farm. has special prob-
lems' due to the fact that she is a
homemaker engaged in productive
work. It was on this- basis that re-
commendations were made with re-
gard to the extension of electrifica-
tion of the farm home, farm housing,
provision for a plentiful supply of, run-
ning water, and provision' for farm
sanitation. The report urged the es-
, tablishment of adequate health ser-
vices in rural areas. •

Shield Horses from, isncephalarnyelitis
The time is now approp.ehing when
encephalomyelitis -they. sleeping sick
ness of horses -usually occurs: So
far, .scientists have not • found an
'effective drug remedy but experience
has shown that early vaccination
by #.--.qualified veterinarian is the
best 'preventive. The protection ' of
horses. ,.against ,biting insects is also
a great help, However, the Veterin-
ary Director General of Canada points
out, that, while it is not recommend-
ed that all horses should be vaccin-
ated, faFmers should be prepared to
act promptly if the disease makes its
appearance in their district or In any
neigh'boririg territory. - In districts
where the disease appeared last year,
the 'owhers of valuable pure-bred ani-
mals would be well advised to have
them vaccinated as. a precautionary
measure. 'Sleeping sickness in hors-
es may infect man with a similar type
of disease.

In Third Group
Saskatchewan provincial election
'results indicate that the real contest
in 'the next federal election will be
between the Liberals and the• C.C.F.
In the sense of popular and geogra-
phic representation, the Liberals re-
ntal/2 the ()illy national party with
members in Parliament - from every
province. The C.C.F. have no Com-
mons representation in feiir of 'the
nine provinces, Alberta, Nova Scotia,
P.E.I., and Quebec, and have only
one M.P. out of the 82 from Ontario.
There are no Progressive Conserva-
tive M.P.'s from Alberta, ,P.E,I., or
Quebec and only' dile each from ;Man-
itoba and Nova Scotia.The fact that
in the Saskatchewan voting the Pro-
gressive Conservatives • were unable
to elect a single member, despite Lib-
eral losses, is taken here. to," mean
the C.C.F. has. supplanted the Brack-
en group. as the second, party in the
Dominion.
Liberals Will Not Seek 'Coalition'
It has beconne known that the Lib-
erals do not intend ' to work toward
any coalition or joint government in
the federal field. They will rim a
completely' independent ' campaign,
seeking election 'on their war records
and their. social and economic legis-
lative program,, They will enter into
no 'bargains with other parties. The
'Progressive Conservatives, on :the
other hand, have shown distinct signs
of linking up with ' the nationalist
Duplessis group in Quebec,. the Un:'
ion Nationals. Since the speech of
C. P. McTague, new national party
chairman, at Guelph, it seems the
.Progressive Conservatives are going
to •try to capitalize en the pre-con-
scription
re-conscription "sentiments outside of. Que-
bec, 'and through Duplessis, on the
anti -conscription feeling in Quebec.
Liberals Retain Large Popular' Vote
Analysis of the Saskatchewan, vote
shows that only ahotit 3,000, more vot-
ed radical that in 1938.. But these
ballots went to -the C.C.F..'Instead of
tieing divided among different parties.
The Liberal party retains the sub-
stantial popular vote of more than
130,000, while the Progressive Con-
servative hit the new low of probab-
ly less than 5.0,000. The C.C.F. cap-
italized on every grievance which the
'depression before the war and prose-
aution• of the war, presented. ,C.C.F.
su'eaess in cities, towns and villages
is attributed to irritation of the •.-vot-
ers
voters at price, wage and selective ser-
vice controls. „Collection of necessar4
ily high income taxes at the source,
cutting' down wages , and salary
cheques, is also believd to account
in good measure for the urban protest
vote. The 'feature of the election'' is
that Progressive." Conservatives were
unable to win. back from the 'C.C.P,
and radical parties, the support
Which sung away from the Anderson
government in 1938. The Anderson
government was formed in 1929 with
a popular vote of only 131,000, as
against 165,000 for the Liberals, and
retained office only with the support
of the radical groups led, by present
head's of the C.C.F.
Family Allowances Start July,' 1945
' Details of the biggest social mea-
sure in Canada's history, family al-
lowances, . based on the number of
children under 16, have been present-
ed to Parliament. "Starting July 1,
1945, payment will be made in re-
spect, to 3,450,000 under 16 years of
age. The outlay will be about $20O,>
000,000 a year and every cent of this
will add to the .purchasing power of
low-income groups, enabling them to
buy goods' and produce made or pro-
duced' `in Canada, -
Cheques will. go to the parent who
supports the \ children. In the case
of men overseas the cheques will ge
to their wives 'at home. The scale is:
$5 a month for a child under 6'; $6
a month for a child between 6 and
10; $4 a..Month for a child between
10 and 13, and $S a month for a child
between 13 and', 16. -Where there is

FOR FINER TEXTURE... DELICIOUS FLAVOR
The best measure of tire vaiue
is still the maker's name!
• In the happy days when you bought tires
without .restriction,' you had one infallible
measure of true tire worth ... the maker's
name: • If you were like the . majority of
motorists, that name was Goodyear. ,
Today, a few unthinking folks say "Synthetic
rubber will make all tires the same." That is
far from the truth!: ' To believe it is to ignore
the fact that in prewar days, tires varied
greatly in quality ... yet all makers used the
same kind of rubber:
You'll understand why this happened when
you remember that TIRES ARE.NOT "MADE OF
RUBBER." There's rubber in them, of course,
but equally important in their construction are
• cotton, steel, carben black and a dozen or
more chemical compounds. Each one of these
"ingredients" must be of top quality, and
used in the right' proportions; fa produce a
tire of high performance. Rubber by itself
(either synthetic or natural) will not make a
satisfactory tire:
•
Prewar tires varied in quality, too, according
.to the amount of knowledge, skill and experi-
ence possessed by the maker: The advent of
synthetic rubber does not alter • that fact.
Actually; the successful use of synthetic
rubber demands the full; use' of ALL PREVIOUS
TIRE -BUILDING ABILITY ... AND MORE.
Therefore; when your turn conies'°to buy a
new tire; remember thatwhile rubber, to some
degree, may be "standardized," quality is not.
Now, as always, "More people ride on
Goodyear tires than on any other kind" --be-
cause motorists know that the best measure
of tire value ... is still the maker's name:
Goodyear's research "rn
natural and synthetic rub-
hers,- begun 17 years ag',
resulted in the first prac-
tical all -synthetic tire,
Today,. Goodyear's con-,
t; rsning research program
is c led on unceasingly
