In this pro- vince the gamble wil! begin short- ly with farmers. risking their la-| bour. seed and fertilizer. in some cases to the extent of thousands of dollars against the prospect of being able to harvest a crop that will pay the expenses and ‘pro- vide a living as well for the farm family. - To make the game more in- teresting and certainly tougher there wil! be gangsters in the form of weeds. insects and fungi to ex- act their toll and there is a!wavs. the chance that the elements will fail to co-operate either with too Hittle rain or too much rain.

HUMANE SLAUGHTER : Citizens generally and live- ' stock farmers in particular have i an understandable interest in the - methods employed by abattoirs t in the staughtering of animals. Of : recem years considerable re- search has been done with-re- spect to development of painless methods of preparing anima!s for 2 ‘gaughter. Some of these are elec- trical. others use gases and a pis- tol with a captive bolt can be used

instead of a hammer

The matter was quite exhaustively gone into , and the stat appears to re- * present very uately the feel- ing of farm oun in this matter. / PRICE SUPPORTS The April issue of the CAC Bul- | . letin contains a statement on ag- ricviture price supports which makes the following statement, “So far as the consumer is con- cerned current agriculiural sup- . port means farm prices maintain- ed at artificially high or incen‘ive levels. thus increasing retail pri- ” There are other

that to many Canadians a cheap- er substitute is iis. An ~~
