CURRIE'S Furniture s Store,ssss`Wingham MMMf1��W1 �1NUlf"VliliM TIM NEED OF PRODUCTION It meet be plain to the »lost obtuse and unreasoning mind that twenty four and twenty-five million of men uanuot be withdrawn even from the ewar»ting population of Europe with out effecting a huge reduction in the produce of labour and of the soil, Women may in a =Retire supply the places of men, but it must be remem. bared that women have always their sphere in the economics of life. There. fore in taking them to the land they are being taken, in the main, from other employment, Consequently, if for every man who goes to fight there was a woman to take hie place in agri- culture or other industry there would still be a deficiency not only in labour hilt in production. At the present tine 400,000 women are being called for to take the place of 250,000 British soldiers recruited from farm work. Hence it is clear that no matter what steps may be taken, either dine ing the war or after the war, there must be an enormous shortage of the requirements across the Atlantic for many yeare to come. And that abort. 'age for a period subsequent to the declaration of peace will be as keenly ns at any time during the gigantic struggle. With the normal scramble for existence resumed there will be less immediate government control— in other words there will bo less eye- tematie regulation of supplies, To meet the huge demands that must succeed extra consumption, tremen- dously less production and immensely greater wastage, there will be abun- dant use, not for one year's bountiful crops, but for similar blessings during a score of successive years. Where and how can this assured demand be met? There is but one answer to the deal question, by the undevaetated countries and by redoubled efforts at production in those countries, That Canada is not the only country that has had its resources in large part exhausted or destroyed, is true; but there is plenty of reason to believe that the nations of T+aurope sot engage ed; hence when the time comes all eyes will be turned from east to west forsucdour. Canada, being the near• est to the 'great centre of demand, will, of necessity, apart from senti- mental reasons, be the first looked to and will have the greatest opportunity, The' bogey of released Russian har- vests has been en parade since the• war commenced, but Russia with twelve or fifteen million men called to arms, largely of the peasant class, has suffered and -is suffering, like the rest. She, too, will need reorganizing;"' re juyenating and regenerating. Bence, while for a few months after outbreak of hostilities, there may have been something to be expected from the re- lease of stores of wheat and other, grain from Odessa and other Black Sea ports, there is nothing available' how and there maybe a little in the next decade. Hence, Canada's role is plain; to go on producing, to go on garnering and storing, if necessary, in the sure and certain hope of hili= mate profit and prosperity. There never was a time, and probably never will be another time, when we were more urgently called to produce, in increased quantities, not alone all articles of food, but every article that enters into the industrial life of peoples. -- The aGREA.TEST Wiles ever, produced in_Canada SERIES..,, 1' 'CARS; 1 Foto Cylinder Modell, Touring Car, 7 -passenger $t225 1, Roadster, 3 -passenger . 1200 ' Laiidau+Roadster,. 3 -pass. 1500' Six Cylinder Mode&+ Touring Car, 7-passenger1450 Roadster, 3 -passenger ,'t 142d Landau -Roadster • . ;4 ,1700; F. 0.
