FARMERS' INCOME WAS HIGHER IN 1941 Farmers' cash income from th sale of farm products in 1941 waa 18.5 per cent greater than in 1940, and the highest for any year since 1929, states the latest issue of tre Current Review of Agricultural Con- ditions in Canada. Increased pro- duction and better prices for live stock and animal products have brought income from these courcea to the highest levels on record. Al- though the income from field crops was the highest for any year sine* 1929, with the exception of 1939, the wheat situation continues to depress farm income in the Prairie Provinc- es below the average level from 1926 to 1929.

WHERE ARE THE NEW CARBURETORS? For years there have been pi reports and rumors abou the devel- opment of new-type gasoline car- buretors, the use of which would grreetly reduce the average automo- bile's consumption of sraaotine.

As a conservation measure the government would welcome the introduction of any device that would reduce consumption and thus conserve supply, wfcile motoring pub- lic would welcome it with a warmth second only to the welcome tfcer would give right now for a device to indi-finrtely prolong the Hfe of their tires.
