Farmers Have 'No Share in Increase Ontario farmers have not shared in the reported 18.19% increase in cash income of Canadian farmers for the first half of 19566. Cecil Belyea, Ont. Federation of Agriculture economist stated to day. "While latest Dominion Bureau of Statistics reports indicate that cash in- come of Canadian farmers has in- creased 13.19 in the first six months of 1956 compared with the same period last year, these same reports also show that Ontario farmers' cash income has dropped $9,600,000 or almost 8 per cent in the same period," Mr. Bel- yea said. "Moreover, cast farm in- come figures merely report the farm- ers income," the OFA economist added. "Such figures are not nearly as signi- ficant. as net farm income figures which reflect what the farmer has left Net farm income figures for Ontario, or for Canada, covering the first six months of 1966 are not yet available." Mr. Belyea said that considering this year's smaller supplies of western and castern feed grains and resulting high- er prices, plus increased costs of other commodities and services, the pros- pects for Ontario farmers in the next six months show no improvement over last year, or the year before.
