LIVESTOCK

Output of livestock in Canada during the past few months has ~,‘ been about 25 per cent greater than a year earlier and imports of lII1e8JI'. have increased, but a smaller supply of meat in the U. S. A. has resulted in a rapid ex-

‘ pansion of Canada’s export mar-

ket and a rise in the general lev- el of livestock and meat prices in M3 countries. Domestic disap- rpe ance of meat in Canada has barely kept pace with population increase and per capita c.onsu.mp- tion has. therefore, shown no change according to the Current Review of Agriculture conditions in Canada issued by the Econo- mics Division of the Department of Agriculture in Ottawa. CATTLE Although the size of the nation- ' al «herd has declined for the first time since 1950, there is still no convincing indication that a cy- clic downturn of beef cattle pro- duction has begun. The December 1 survey of livestock on -farms, by the Dominion Bureau of Sta- tistics shows that numbers of steers and yearling lieiferis are lower than a year ea.rlier but that numbers of beef cows have in- creased by two per cent and calf numbers are slightly higher. Much of this depletoin of steer and heifer numbers may be at- tributed to heavy exports to the United States last summer and

mand for feeder cattle.

The expansion of the beef breed- ing herd was limited to Ontario, Saskatchewan and Alberta. Mani- toba showed no change and all of the remaining provinces show- ed reductions of four to ten per cent. I

Marketin-gs of cattle continued heavy in January and February and, as in the last quarter of 1957, most of the increase over a year earlier was exported to the

United States. While receipts at stockyards nad packing plants av- eraged 47 thousand head per week during the first nine weeks of this year (up 20 per cent), inspected slaughter averaged only 36 thou-

PRICE RISE

The seasonal rise in cattle‘ pric- es, which began in early Novem- ber has been unusually pronoun- ced and good quality cattle com- ing_o£f Canadian feed-lots during January and February l1 a V e brought higher prices than have been realized in any winter since 1953. THhe main reason for this price buoyancy is the short sup- ply of beef in the United States brought on by (1) delayed move- ment of rfed cattle from feed-lots in the Corn Belt and (2) the longer term cyclic decline in beef pro- duction. .

Recent reports from the Unit- ed States indicate that prices in that country will weaken during the spring months as the bulk of fed cattle are marketed but that annual per caput beef supplies are l i k e 1 y , to continue light throughout the next three years

unless consumer demand suffers a major decline.

Prices of good steers averaged $21.50 to $22.50 per cwt. alive at Toronto during the week ending March 7, i.e. about $5500 above the seasonal low point at the be- ginning Ot‘ November. and $3.50 higher than a year earlier.

Almost 14 thousand slaughter cattle, (mainly from the West) and 54 thousand feeder cattle (al- most entirely from the We-st) were shipped to the United States dur- ing the first two months of this year compared with a tot-al of none during same period of 1957. However, there are signs -that this export surplusis growing small- er. In. January, prices of good slaughter steers at Chicago aver- aged $3.90 per hulndredweiglit higher than at Toronto and $4.70 higher than-at Winnipeg. By late February, these differentials had narrowed to $2.58 and $2.93 re-

spectively. Price differentials on

good feeder steers have shown a similar tred.‘ ' EXPORTS

Exports of ‘beef have also been well abov-e last year’s level. Over 11 million pounds of product were repor-ted during the first eight weeks of 1958 compared with less than two million during the cor- responding period of 1957. As a result there has been less beef available -for domestic consup- tion than a year earlier, prices have risen and domestic disap- pearance has fallen by roughly three per cent.

Wholesale prices of good steer

carcasses (450-700 lb.) w~hi'c.h have been slower to rise seasonally than the lower grades, averaged almost 40 cents per pound at T0- ronto in February, 5.1 cents per pound higher than in November and 11 per cent higher than in February 1957: Prices of good cow carcasses (500 to 700 lb.) aver- aged almost 32 cents per lb. at Toronto, 7.0 cents per pound high- er than in November a-nd 32 per cent higher than a year earlier. “SPRING IS HERE!” Spring is officially here and with it we are experiencing the usual signs —- warmer weather, muddy roads, new lambs and bare bran scaffolds. Farmers should be thinking of the great rush which accompanies the plan- ting season and 0'.’ ways to help speed up the job.

One thing that can be done now which may save valuable time later is to check your m-achinery over and see if there are any parts which need repairing or re- placing. Perhaps you remember from last season some lever. spring. or cog that was worn and can.-;ing trouble but which you ne- glectcd to repair then. Or at the end of last season before you put your machinery in storage you may have noted some loose nuts or worn parts and put off repair- inglhem. And how about the tires on the tractor, wagon, manure spreader or lime sower? If some of them have slow leaks in them it is a sand time now to repair

Poor baby chick management can result in stunted growth and unthrifty chicks. Avoid overcrow ing. Baby‘ chicks may be small when they arrive but in the first eight weeks their body weight is increased 25 times. Although it’s normal to expect 2 per cent mor- tality, losses can run up to 20 per cent with ov.ercrowding. Cannibal- ism can also develop.

For the first week the ideal temperature at the height of the chicks’ backs is 95 degrees F. After that bring the temperature down 5 degrees weekly. Watch chicks for over or under heating. When two cold they huddle under the hover chirping constantly. When too hot they spread out a far as possible. ‘

Feed baby chicks commerical chick started continuously. Don’t add eggs or skim milk as this may upset the nutritive balance of the ration. See that fresh, clean water and sufficient hoppers are avilable.

About an inch of litter is re- quired but until the‘chicks are us- ed to their feed’, litter should be protected. Young chicks some- times fill their crops with shav- ings‘and die of starvation as a result.? Instead of using a litter protection of newspapers which they may slip on, use burlap for two or three days. Do use little though as ‘it also acts as an in- sulation.

38 Defeated M. P.'s In

By DAVE McINTOSH Canadian Press Staff Writer I OTTAWA (CP) — Thirty-eight‘

former Members of Parliament beaten in Monday's general elec- tion qualify for a full $3,000 an- nual pension for life.

A former MP must have served in at least three Parliaments to receive the full $3,000 pension. The pension fund is built up by

with this amount being matched by the federal treasury.

The list of 38 comprises 26 Lib-, erals, five members of the CCF, six members of the Social Credit party, including leader Solon Low, and one independent, Dr. Raoul Poulin of Beuace. .

Full pensions also will be avail- able to several other long - time MP5 who retired before the elec1 tion. These include Rene Beau- doin, fonmer Speaker, Rev. Dan Mclvor, veteran Liberal from Fort William, and Victor Quelch, Social Cred-iter from Acadia.

Candidates beaten Monday who had qualified before the 1957 Par-

Ottawa Citizen (Ind. Lib.)—The government, unless it exercises ‘great restraint, will be able to ride roughshod ovbl‘ the Com- mons. It will be Interesting to see how much the Conservatives un- der Mr. Diefenbaker cherish those rights of Parliament about which they were so solicitious in their own bleak days of opposition. . . .‘

This defeat, in spite of its shock- ing dimensions, should do the Lib- erals no permanent damage . . . Mr. Pearson has nothing to apol- ogize for. -

Kelowna B.C. Courier (Ind.)—- The almost complete obliteration of the .CC'F and Social Credit parties in the West, the‘ only place they had found fertile soil, suggests that the Canadian voter has decided he has had enough of splinter parties, in federal pol- itics at least. _

Nanaimo Free Press (Ind.)—— The Conservative landslide vic- tory could well mean the end of -the CCF and Social Credit part- ies in federal and provincial fields of the future. The election of the Diefenbaker government could also mean the end of the splinter parties and the return of the two-party system in Canada. Mr. Pearson lost it (the elec- tion) on a program arranged in haste—a stop gap a-imed at ar- resting the Diefenbaker upsurge. It came too late to be of much help.

Calgary Albertan (Ind.) —- The next four years promise to be more difficult than the last four, in both domestic and interna- tional affairs . . . We have some doubt th at -the Conservative party has the capacity to‘ give Canada four years of good gov- ernment . . . One bad mistake and the Canadian voters would turn on them just as they did in 1935.

Vancouver, Province (Ind.)—- British Columbians . . . have seen the party which ‘is their provin- cial government o-bliterated fed- erally. Can they be blamed for wondering to what extent, and when, the r e p e r c u ssions will reach into their own legislature?

Victoria Colonist (Ind.) — The largest Parliamentary majority in the history of Canada . . . will call for restraint and statesman- ship now on the part ‘of the prime minister, the cabinet and all ranks of the party in the new Parliament. It is clear . . . that a substantial body of Canadians liked Prime Minister Diefenba'k- er’s program and the vision of Canada mature enough to make its own decisions and if need be its own mistakes. .

Calgary Herald (Ind.) —— Cana- dians stand in awe today before the spectacle of the greatest polit- ical upheaval in the nation’s his- tory . . . One thing stands out in blinding brilliance—John Diefen- baker stands today as the livi.ng symbol of Canada . . . (He) car- ries on his shoulders the greatest responsibility, ever vested in an individual Canadian . . . That he will cherish and discharge that responsibility with true greatness is the prayer of millions.

Lethbridge Herald (Ind.)—-The situation resulting from the 1957 election was unsatisfactory. But neither is it healthy to have the Commons so unevenly balanced as . . . now. The governing party must exercise great restraint . . .

lard of Souris River is the new man. Recently he.under went a period of training in New Bruns- wick, at the Central Artifical Co- operative Bull‘Battery and then with the Inseminator of the East- ern P Iri n c e County Artificial Breeding Club, Ken Walker at Summerside. . In order to receive service sim- ply phone Souris 100. The service of ten different breeds are avail- able daily. These breeds are: Holstein, Ayrshire, Jersey, Guern- sey, D u al Purpose Shorthorn, Beef Shorthorn, Hereford, Red Poll, Angus and Charlais.

Eclilorial Comments On Conservative Landslide

the opposition must make u.p in skill and energy what it lacks in numbers. Prime Minister Diefen- baker . . . given the “chance” he sought. . . . must use his strength wisely. . . .

Prince Albert I-Ierald (lnd.)—- Prince Albert (is) jubilant today Over the victory of Prime Min- ister John Diefenbaker’s Conserv- atlve party in Monday's election. And yet, there can be no doubt that the smashing victory, largely fashioned by the MP for this rid- ing, raises problems of tremend- ous magnitude. We pray he . . . may be guided with the widsom . . . the days ahead will demand.

Saskatoon Star - Phoenix (Ind. Lib)—-What accounts for this dra- matic surge of ‘support for the Progressive Conservative? Many factors, undoubtedly. For one thing, the dynamic personality of Prime Minister Diefenbaker . . . finally, in our opinion, the nation- wide contagious sentiment, “Let’s give the Conservatives a chance” and its corollary, “After all, the Liberals had 22 yea-rs of power.”

Medicine Hat News (Ind.)—'I‘he vote Monday was a tremendous testimony of faith in . . . John Diefenbaker, all but unanimously voiced. Liberal Leader Pearson must be still wondering what hit him (but) it is highly unlikely any other man could have done bet- ter . . . against the man of des- tiny. We are confident he (Pear- son) will fill the role of opposi- tion leader as well as‘ it could be f i 1 I e d under the circum- stances."

Winnipeg Tribune (Ind.) —- The Conservative landslide is a per- sonal triumph for Prime Minis- ter Diefenbaker, and it presents him with the greatest challenge of his life. With such a following in Parliament he must watch his every move to prove constantly that he can remain “a great dem- ocrat” in the face of such power. With the defeat of the leaders of CCF and Social Credit whose two groups may wit-her on the branch and eventually vanish from the political scene. .

Ottawa Journal (Ind. Con.)- For the third parties this, it would seem, is journey’s end; complete extinction for S o c i all Credit, a mortal blow for the CC-F. . . .the drama O-f the day, its real aspect of political revo- lution, was the result. in Quebec . . . .In the new parliament, he (Mr. Diefenbaker) will have an almost monolithic majority; a majority providing him with power and opportunity to work great things for Canada. But as well in that monolithic majority there lurk perils — the perils of forgetting its source, of at times ignoring its implications.‘

Quebec L’Evenment Journal (lnd)—T‘he Canadian electorate made a non - equivocal manifes- tation of its confidence in the Con- servative party. It is here and now evident that we will have in the next cabinet a represen- tation which will be more pro- portional to the importance cf our province . . . Thus ends a period in our political history. a period of political instability which cer- tainly was partly responsible for the economic recession which we have seen take disquieting pro- portions d-uring the winter.

Montreal Le Devoir (Ind — The Liberal era is over . . . the spectacular event of Monday’s vote is the votes of Quebec prov- ince. It had been said since June that Quebec held in its hands the fate of the Diefenbaker, govern- ment . . . This is false. Even without Quebec Mr. Diefenbaker could have governed for five years. . . For French-Canadians, we have no reason to believe this new government will be any worse than the preceding one. . .

Montreal Star (Ind.) — There has never been anything in the whole long history of Canadian elections like Monday’s results . . . Mr. Diefenbaker deserves every congratulation . (His first achievement) is that he an- nihilated the hold ihe Liberal party has had on the province of Quebec ever since 1887 . . . The second is that he has Won the four western provinces, long the stronghold of the maerick par- ties . . .

Montreal La Presse (Ind.) - The biggest surprise is without doubt the attitude of Quebec prov- ince. . That she should'elect (Tonservative members to 50 of her 75 seats despite a long :11- tachment to the Liberal party tradition is one of those things that could not have been foreseen on the eve of the election. . . In any case. Quebec has given the

consideration than she was ac- corded in the last cabinet.

Quebec Le Soleil (Ind — Mr. Diefenlbaiker can interpret Que- bec’s vote as proof of its confi- dence, but he must not forget it‘ is also a manner of strengthening the province’s claims in favor of a return of its taxation rights, claims which Quebec has battled for on the provincial scene for years . . . The fight for provin- cial autonomy now moves to a second level, its true level, and the people will ask more than

action. '

Quebec Chronicle - Telegraph (Ind-PC)_— Perhaps it is to be regretted} that the response . .- . was so ‘strong. One of the big complaints against former Lib- eral governments was that the large representation in Parlia- ment tended to make the opposi- tion of no effect. Where this sit- uation was bad at the time, it is extended numerically. Yet this is what the people of Canada wanted, and it places on Mr. Dief- enbaker and the the responsibility to prevent the abuses of big - majority govern- ments from returning to Parlia- ment.

Quebec L’Action Catholique ( Ind.) —— Quebec followed the g.tn- eral trend . . Except in the last .-days of the campaign Mr. Diefenbaker did no-t try to se:‘...:e the province . . . He made com- mitments only of a vague and general nature . . .Quebecers will remember nevertheless that Mr Diefenbaker has promised to re- spect the rights of the province as guaranteed by the constitu- tion and deélared himself in fa- vor of Canada's two cultures. .

acutely needed as now.

Toronto Telegram (Ind.) —— A massive majority brings with it new and greater responsibilities’ for_the Diefenbaker government . In the annals of politics, the Diefenbaker triumph exceeds anything in Canadian history, and isperhaps closer to the sweeping victory of Dwight D. Eisenhower in U.S. politics in his first elec- tion of 1950 than any recent dem- ocratic election.

Winnipeg Free Press (Ind.

Lib.) -— The pendulum has taken an u-.isually long time to swing

but it certainly has swung now with‘ a vengeance. The predomi- nant feeling was that the Conser- vatives, having been in the wil- derness -so long, now deserved a fair chance . . . Liberalism "n Canada has been stripped down to the point where the bone shows. Is there still, now that the rich attire and the fat of the days of power have gone, good hard bone?

Edmonton Journal Ind.) — It was a tremendous personal tri- umph for Mr. Diefenbaker . . . It is proper to say that millions of the Canadians who marked ballots for a Conservative candi- date knew little or nothing about the candidate; they were voting for Mr. Diefenbaker as the man they wanted to lead them at a time that is filled with both great dangers and great opportunities.

Vancouver Sun (Ind) -- It is a tremendous vote of confidence . Some difficult years are ahead and they will ‘be made more difficult in Parliament by the fact that an overwhelming majority. such as Mr. Diefen- baker possesses — such as the Liberals too often possessed in the past 22 years — is not I healthy thing. . . .

Victoria Times (Ind. - Lib): Apart from the olear expression of the general will the most irri- portant and most satisfactory re- sult of -the election is the end of the one-party system in Quebec a political division based on race is ended. The ghost of Louis Riel has finally been 1a.id.

Sydney Cape Breton Post (Ind) —Even the most rabid supporters of an apparently inspired national

leader could not have expected such an overwhelming mandate from the Canadian electora.te.,

Somewhere along the line John Diefenbaker . . . -caught fire and

led his panty to the most sweep-

ing victory in Canadian history. In the Maritimes . . . Mr. Dief- enzbaker made a real attempt to

bolster economic conditions in the quite obviously he in- spired the same confidence

support to the man they feel they can trust. The overwhelming sweep in favor of John Diefen- baker from one end of Canada to the other is explained just as simply as that.

Sherbrooke Record (lnd.): Mr. Diefenbaker is personally respon- sible for the success of the Con- servative party in the province of Quebec. The 50 seats which Gno-

servalive candidates have won in the province are an expression of the confidence which the people of Quebec have put in him. Que- ‘bec voted for Mr. Diefenlbaker without any previous promises or committments. The responsibility now rests with the prime min- ister to respond to this historic gesture.
