4. FRAOTIOXS SNOWOBILE?—
A fractious horse sometimes causes
excitement but nothing of a thrill
to that of a real rearing snow car.
Our town’s best and only snowmo
bile seems sort of “fed up.” Of
course we are net sure whether it is
just play or a temper. ’A number
of our boys who had the fleet little
scooter out one evening last week
feel that the thing is vicious.
When about four miles from home
it went up in the air throwing the
boys away into a snow bank. Exam
ination found it still kicking with its
.hind feet but it refused to go home
until persuaded by a team of horses.

Travel with me back over the years
and ask yourself what is agriculture
and how it .came to be.
It is beyond ancient history of the
world, We must go back to Bibli
cal (history. We must study creation
from its beginning and say God
created, He made the land, He made
every living thing and He made man
after his own image, burdened with
intelligence to manage that which
He himself hath. made. Have we
properly .owned and controlled that
great gift, that was created for us,
or have we 'been slackers and let it
get beyond our control.
Agriculture—the greatest industry
the greatest industry of the universe
and bhe universe is totally depen

we should be proud to protect.‘ *When agriculture was first in its
early beginning, was it without a
struggle? We answer no.

were an axe and spade, he planted

year three other men joined him
and in another twenty years the
people had several thousand acres,
amounting to thousands, under cul

farming as we have it today known
as Canadian agriculture.
Ten years after Confederation
there was a production of about 50
million bushels of wheat and of
