It is more : TRAN » and nne-third hillions Cur debts have greatly in- creased -- our revenues must alse go up. The farmer has to bear his share of the increased burden. Tha it means he must increase his revenue. Complaint has been heard that farmers under present onditions in Canada cannot rly farming pay. And yet many thousands of Canadian farmers do make it pay. How Is It Done? Patient and industrious "carry on" will do wonders, but some- thing more is needed. Too often "patient industry" is coupled with "dull persistance" in poorly thought out methods. Farmers today more than ever, must plan ahead, as well as "plug along"; indeed they have noc opr tion, if they wish to succeed. Co-ordination of head and hand will mean real success. Farming in Canada has paid and pays now on many farms. It can be made to pay on almost every farm. Cana- dian agriculture has passed through low profit-making eras success- fully in the past and can dc so again. Crop Returns Should be Increased On the Central Experimental Farm at Ottawa some crop costs and crop profits in 1922 as contrasted with all-Ontario average crop costs and crop profits are given below. The all-Ontario figures are in brackets: Cost per acre 4 ha tu Profit per acre Hay $21.13 ($13.50) $11.21 ($5.09) Corn for Forage $47. 50 (333. 75) $10.38 ($2.86) Qats = $26.47 ($19.32) $ 7.33 ( .04) Similar Sesait can be shown from the Dominion Experimental Farms in every province. Experimental Farm crops are sometimes claimed to be produced at too great cost. experiments, however, show that a increased cropping costs wisely Les applied up' to a reasonable point always increase crop profits. Thig is true on the Experimental Farm =--and on any and every farm. a 7Y IN GOOD FARMING s Get to Work ane Thousands of °* With the increased cost of pro= duction, the higher standards of living now prevailing cannot be maintained by poor farm manage ment, "boarder" wiitery, scrub profitin@er quality hogs or non- [E.G That even under present condi= tio ns profits hi be made is testi= any skilful, observant and ring farmers, who believe the policy of "slow but nd "pay as you go" rather speed, with excessive bor- i: and the often consequent disaster. The results on our Experimental «Farms also bear testimony to the value of thorough, skilful work. The Farmer Must Manufacture But crops alone are not enough. The farmer must change his crops into less bulky and more highe priced products--milk, pork, beef, mutton, poultry, etc. With fair yielding cows dairying shows good profits in Canada. The average cow has increased her yield 25% in the last ten years. She can Spite readily go up an- other 25% and more, and there's where the profit lies. Better feed- ing, better selection and better breeding will do the job--feed, weed, breed. To do better feeding 'means better pastures and more generous supplies of palatable roughage. Short rotations including clover and ensilage crops (corn, sunflower, pea and oat, etc.) will provide feed in abundance for both summer and winter. The experinients and in- vestigations which the Dominion Department of Agriculture have carried on prove that farming scientifically and systematically undertaken will pay profits. The records and particulars of such work in every province are avail- able to the Canadian farmer. Are you growing grain, or producing seed or interested in fruit?
