confronting them but can adian farmers fully appreciate that in these turbulent times they must ex pect to suffer some disabilities mr gardiner snid problems such as lack of equip ment shortage of adequate farm labor and high wages will be difficult to solve mnny farmors are produc ing n grent dcnl more than they over produocd before and yet notwith standing the impacts of tho wnr tho individual effort on the pnrt of thous ands of farmers has demonstrated their determination to support tho natlonnl war offort in n very prac tical way referring to the authority given the wartime prices and trade board to dotormlnc tho maximum prices for certain farm products mr gardiner snid that in most cases the demand for food products especially tho ex port demand was so great as to as sure that prices will not fall much if at all below tho maximum for example in the cases of bacon and cheese reasonably atable prices have been or will bo- assured under largescale agreements with the

should there be an increase in their use a shortage might develop par ticularly in phosphoric acid and pot ash fertilizers tho use of chemicals for war re quirements has reduced tho produc tion of essential fort i lizor materials and as the wnr continues further re strictions are expected mr gardiner said prices for 3942 are expected to bo about five per cent higher than in 1941 duo to the increased cost of materials nnd labor pesticide supplies might also bo lower in 1942 and it may be neces sary as a result to zone in 1912 tho use of certain chemicals used irt post control according
