WANT 1,750,000 MORE PRODUCED THIS YEAR to wfn a fhiejl dwMon hi anv of trie many t*ip*tri of .n<f to mroTt w*ie* the rumorrrmftv Of all meat animals the largest in- "<*ase in production for 1943 is hoped for in hogs. The national objective was set at the Dominion-Provincial Conference held in Ottawa, Dec. 7 to 9. at 8 millions, an increase of one and three-quarter millions, or 28 per cent over 1942. This large number of hogs is made necessary by the request of the British Ministry of Food for increasing supplies of bacon and pork products and the rapidly increasing demands of civilian and military needs in Canada. As far as feed is concerned the objective is well within the range of Canadian supply. The limit to in- creased production will lie to some extent in the supply of labor and material for pens a nd shelter. Hogs represent one of the best methods of marketing the record grain crop of 1942. Estimates by the Provincial repre- sentatives at the Conference as to the objectives of each province were all greater than those of 1942, except New Brunswick, which was unchang- ed. I n Saskatchewan th increase vas expwtad b* 1T per ent of the 1942 production, the grwatoat estimated increase of any of th* pro- vinces. Other provtae** varied from Increase* of 10 to SS per cent.
