HIGH CONSUMPTION AND DAIRY EXPORTS Aided by controls, the export market dominated the disposition of- cheese produced in Canada during the war, but that lead has now been lost and the domestic market has established its posi- tion as the leading consumer of ail dairy products produced in Canada. In 1937, Canada exported 89 million lb. of cheese. By 1942, the figure was up to 142 million lb. In 1947, if had dropped back to 56 million lb. Part of the an- swer f0 -this decline lies in do- mestîc consumption figures. In 1937, Canadians ate 40 million lb. o! eheese. In 1947, they used 67 million IL Coneenfrated milk products- evaporated, condensed, powdered milk-tell a similar story. Ex- ports jumped fromn 33 million lb. in 1937 to 103 million lb. in 1945, then feli baek to 81 million in 1947, but dornestie disappearance climbed sfeadily from 105 million in 1937 to 265 million lb. in 1947. The cause of these on-again off-again exporfs is the increased domestie consumption of fluid mi]k, butter and cheese. No in portant quantifies of fluid milk( butter are exporfed. Canadiai ate 351 million lb. o! butteri 1947, a sfraighf 100 million lb. ir crease over 1937. In 1937, the used 4,284 million IL of milk an Cream. By 1947, the total wasu to 5,760 million lb. But regardless o! the ultimat use to w'hich the dairy produc have been put, Canada's dair farmers have enjoyed a contint ing improvdfinent in the financii returns on their production. Toti values increased from $215,441 Cietizens View Interesting Hobby Show Friday and Saturday afternoon and evening hundreds from this district vîsîted the Lions Community Centre on Beech Avenue to ses the attractive. display of hobbies being undertaken by local enthusiasts and also to see the possibilities of enlarging the scope of activities here during the next season. The loom which is being demonstrated by Miss Malcolm of Toronto gave many people an idea of what they could do towards making their own clothes. Miss Malcolm was attired in a smart blue suit made of cloth she had made herself. Mrs. Leo Goulah, Miss M. O'Donoghue, Mrs. Mansell Stacey and Mr. and' Mrs. AI. Witherspoon appear quite interested ln the intriccqte operation. Prcducts of local hobby groups also attracted much attention. One of the most interesting was the lecther display by the Girl Guides of Bowmanville. Miss Beverly Frank is showing a beautiful handbag to Mr. Ernie Lunn while Mrs. Lun and Nancy and John look on. In the background several other spectators are inspecting the work assisted by Recreational Director Bart Smithson. Miss Catherine Dilling la the other Girl Guide ln the picture. The Community Council was responsible for the fine display, assisted by the Provincial Government's Department of Planning and Development. m-Real Wealth i Human Affairi "" Discussed by Rev. F.
