Prairie expert LB Thomson argues mechanization will win both war and peace in agriculture. He notes labor and equipment shortages require adapted machinery, stresses soil moisture conservation, and urges careful selection of blades, cultivators, and disks to prevent erosion while boosting livestock and crop production for a 25 year horizon.
The article argues that beyond soil conservation farmers should hold Victory Bonds War Savings Certificates and liberty bonds to finance future mechanization. It stresses using government securities to maintain purchasing power and enable a stable, profitable, and permanent agriculture, signaling a cornerstone for Canada’s economy. Also notes article 3 moved to the extra sheet.
Last Friday March 9 a two storey brick residence owned by Mr W H Glover was destroyed by a blaze discovered around 10 15 am. Firemen volunteers and neighbors could not save the building though some first floor furniture was saved. The back furnace area is suspected as the fire origin. The Glover family lost much of their clothing and personal effects with insurance on the building only. The family now resides in Mrs W McElvery’s former home. Neighbors and local groups collected furniture bedding and essentials for the family and praised the community spirit.
Mr. W. H. Glover and family extend thanks to all who helped control the Friday fire, to neighbors and friends for thoughtful acts after the fire, and to the many who contributed cash.
