Canadian Agricultural Implements Industry Faces Policy Threat

The 1911 census shows Canada has 77 implement factories with 9,500 workers and 5.55 million in salaries, spanning Ontario Quebec Winnipeg and more. Ontario alone houses 54 plants with $44 million capital, while 50,000 people rely on these works as a main regional backbone, many towns depend on the industry amid debates to abolish duties.

Hog Industry Profits From Edmonton Packing Plant

The Vermilion Standard cites Edmonton area figures showing a large hog packing operation slaughters two hogs every five minutes, totaling about 1,500 hogs weekly. It notes $6 per minute in farm earnings and potential $7 million yearly in hog supplies, arguing for the value of a mixed farm economy and strong home markets for regional prosperity.

Argentina’s farmer and the lack of local implement makers

The article argues that Argentine farmers pay high prices for farm binders because most implements are imported from the United States or Canada. It notes virtually no domestic manufacturers, a tax that funds national revenue but provides no protection for home products, and that urban Argentina is concentrated in Buenos Aires and Rosario.

German steel exports lead world in 1913 output

The Journal of Commerce of Montreal shows Germany topped iron and steel exports in 1913 with 6,497,000 metric tons, edging Britain at 6,050,919 gross tons while the United States shipped 2,760,183 gross tons. The shift may reflect Germany’s wartime shipbuilding and high protectionist policy versus Britain’s free trade. Argentina doubles wheat yield over a decade with modern farming, while France prepares for a major 20 mile front battle with millions expected on each side.
