Since 1935, your Liberal Government has kept farming at the top of its list for action. Look at the panel (left). Although 23% fewer men have been available for farm work, production has increased more than 40% â€" a splendid record of achievement for victory! Even btjore the war, by securing foreign mar- kets, taking off surpluses and stimulating home consumption, your Liberal Goveriunent assisted in raising total farm income by 49 %. During the war, the farmer for the first time was put in the sound position of knowing exactly how he stood inancially. He was protected against increases in his costs of production and guaranteed a market at fixed prices for a specified volume of produce. In 1939 farm income was $772,- 000,000; in 1 944 it was $1,817,- 000,000, an increase of over a billion I AJter the war, your Liberal Government has arranged to keep farm incomes up by floor prices on farm and fish prod- ucts, and by foreign trade . . . to improve farm living condi- tions by Family Allowances, National Housing Plan. Farm Improvement Loans Act, and other social measures . . . and to secure agriculture's future by conservation of soil and other natural resources together with farsighted projects for irriga- tion, road and other improve- ments as sooo as manpower •nd materials are available.
