Canada’s Progress

When the war was on and this coun:
try was putting forth every effort, at

cause, a great spirit of confidence and
faith, of willingness to work, economize
rand sacrifice, filed every class of ‘the
community from the highest to the
lowest.

As a result, Canada’s honourable war
record has set her high among the
nations, with a place at the Imperial
Council table and a voice in interna-
tidnal affairs, ,

Canada must and will come, with
equal honour, through the troublous
times of ‘post-war adjustment. The
only question is, will all of us help—
or some of us hinder, by pessimism,
apathy, or class jealousy?

To the Canadian farmer this question
comes with a peculiar force. Agricul-
ture must be the economic balance

We may call attention to the adver-
tisement placed in this issue hy “the
is more than an advertisement, it is a
call to united and cheerful effort, a
summons to the Canadian spirit of the
“will to -win"™ which has burned so
brightly throughout Canada’s history—
a spirit which is so well shown in a
message received in Ottawa only a few
days ago from one of the foremost
farmers of the Province of Alberta, He
says: “It started to rain the last part
of the’week, and this coming after the
recent heavy rains has put the soil in
a condition that it has not been in at
this time of the. year since 1916; the
farmers are consequently very jubilant
and if the optimism could pay debts
the farmers of Sonthern Alberta could
by next fall cancel our National Debt.”

| eters to the Editor

Sir.—I notice that my name has
been printed below a circular
concerning Mr. Frank. I signed
this circular because [ had no:
complaint to make with regard to
Mr. Frank’s work on the Kalum
road. I did not, however, anti-
cipate that this cirenlar would be
used to cover an attack on the
G.W.V.A. Ido not agree with
Mr. Frank’s statement regarding
the Terrace G. W. V. A:, which

mands energy, courage, economy, and
efficiency. ‘T'hese sturdy qualitiés radi-
ate from our farms to industries in
other walks of life, where so many
leaders were country born and bred.
The farm home and farm life as the
source of what has been and is the
strongest and truest in our national
character is interwoven with the his-
tory of Canada from its infancy. The
settlers on the shores of New Bruns-
wick and Nova Scotia, toiling to clear
a patch of forest and sowing their
grain among the stumps; Hebert and
the pioneers af New France, fighting
the Indians, enduring privations, wrest-
ing merely a rude living from their
small clearings, but full of faith in
the future, if not for them, then for
generations yet to come: the men who
rescued Upper Canada from the wilder-
ness; the Red River colonists, who,
after iwo years of complete destruc-
tion of their crops, sent a party to the
Mississippi for seed) grain for the next
year and won! These men made pos-
sible the Canada of today.

The farmers of Canada, then, haye
a rich history and a noble tradition to
live up to. Upon them Canada’s pro-
gress has always, in the main, depend. ,
ed; upon them it will always, in the
main depend,
What, then, is necessary fer the
farmers of today? ‘Simply the applica-
tion of those qualities we have referred
to—enerfy, courage, economy and effic-
lency, and under present-day conditions
the return is sure and speedy. A yaty
high percentage of farms owned by
farmers in this country have heen, ac-

own lifstime, For the present and
future generations there is exactly the
same opportunity. True, with each
generation, and perhaps oftener, we
may have to change our type of eraps
but surely that is a trifling task com-
pared with that of those who had to
to meet changing market requirements,
establish themselves in a new country,
create their darm, their community,
their markets, and their civilization...
- During the war years, the farmer,
like most others, became unreasonably
optimistic. As in other industries, he
over-capitalized, tied up too ‘much
money in extravagant buildings and
expensive machinery, bought tractors
to get the. crops in more quickly and
easily, without considering whether the
actnal earning power. of these war-
ranted the’ investment, With the de-
pression which has ‘followed, this over-
expansion has been a seriovs..burden
and has shaken the faith of some in
ultimate success, oe

We must get back the indomitable
courage and untiring effort of Canada’s
early days.* The farmer must remem-
ber that in the last. analysis he is in-
finitely better off than ‘the /Wage-earner
of the city. True, his éash. ineome
may: sometimes be small, but he cnn, at
the very worst, gain his living from the
soil, while in, the city the larger wage
‘soon melts away in paying for things
which*on the farm -involvés no cash
outlay. The farm. ‘products ‘aye’ neces-
sities of life and must always command
a market. “The products of, city indus-
tries ‘must ‘often create their’ market
