COUNTER CHECK BOOKS THE REVIEW, DURHAM Astudy showing the comparison between the cost of Governâ€" ment in Canada and the farm value of all field crops has been prepared by W. Sanford Evans and released for the National Committee on economy in public finance by the Canadian Chamber of Commerce. â€" The study, as ilâ€" lustrated by the chart, indicates that in 1913 the total sum expendâ€" ed by governments for ordinary purposes was equal to 50 per cent. of the farm value of all field crops in Canada. In 1931 Governâ€" ments expended a sum equal to 216 per cent. of the value of all field crops. Field Crops Gov.

The average value of all field ctops for the 5 years, 1927â€"1981, includâ€" ing three years of good prices, was $866,000,000, while the ordinâ€" ary expenditures of governments in 1931 were $920,000,000. 4 Whereas in 1913 a sum equal to oneâ€"half the value of the feld crops sufficed to meet ordinary government expenditures, a stage has now been reached where the average value of all field crops falls short by many millions of dollars of meeting the ordinary requirements of governments. $920,000,000 # LOCAL AND PERSOLAL & Apgen 220 200008 ues ons aus i# The Lynch Bros. have mflnhgd thei.\_' quality Mr Wm.
