A section of organized agrlculu ture in Western Canada has been quite vocal in advocating parity prices at one hundred per cent but has not pointed out what the; pitfalls in such a program may; be. Even with our increasing ur-1 ban population and with fewerl farmers it is still quite possible for agriculture to be poor in the midst of abundance.

HOG QUALITY

Generally there is more money for the farmer in selling a quality product and there is perhaps more to be made and lost on quality in hogs than any other farm product. Government Premiums are paid for quality and there is substan- tial differcncc in price per hun- dred for different grades. Fur- ther the desirable weighls for

For four nights during the month

of January Farm Forums discuss- eo the question of Parity for A- griculture. Stated in the simpliest way. parity, for agriculture means a fair deal for farmers. Usually the initial approach of obtaining this fair deal will be to suggest! that farmers should get higher prices for what they produce and that if normal markets do not do this then assistance in the form of price supports should be pro- vided. However. high prices and high price supports hold certain elements of danger in danger that many farmers would like to exper- ience).

We have mentioned this matter before not by way of criticism but as an example of a way some extra money can be made through which is pretty well in the control of the individual farmer.

The numbc of hugs which dres- sed over 170 pounds is surprising as there is very general feeling that a lighter hog is more apt to grade up and also make more efficient use of feed. Suggestions brought forward for changes in hog grades generally agreed that
