This cendition he said, is due to the advance in prices of all ftarm mach‘nery and feed for livestock . He said the most prosperous year for Canadian farmers was 1913, as taxes and expenses were unusually low. "Since that time, however, the price of feed and other farm equipâ€" ment has risen by leaps and bsunds until the farmer now has to work hard for little pay," he stated. He criticized the tax the farmer is required to nay on gasoline and for the installation of Hydro. _ "The Canadian farmer in addition is faced w‘th stiff competition in the markâ€" ets of the world, for while farmers in Australia, New Zealand and the Argentine can turn their cattle out in the fields the year round, Canad‘â€" an farmers must provide expensive feed for their animals for four months of each year."
