writin 0to C. H. Sanders, agent for
this district 'says :—With the ap-
. pronch of Spring and the busy earson
ar the farms, I wish to draw your at-
tention to the fact that immigration
from the British Isles this Year wili
not likely amount to much, and ience,
farmers who have been accustomed to
securina immigrant help are now cone
fronte' with the necessity oi'Seeming
heil. from, some other source. There
are a large numbet of idle -nen in
Canada some or whom have had ex
perience as farm laborers and others
quite inexpetiencett This is the enly
source of supply for the present
year As farmers everywhere are
rnakiaw a, strong effort to increase
, production in view of war prices and
the desirability of Canada raising as,
mucb as possible to meet the teeds
of the Empire in this crisis I think
it likely that farm help will be carce
before long and therefore farmers
should take immediate advantage of;
the present situation to secure helm
before the rush begins and scarcirty of
labor is felt. If you are in need of
help leave your order with C. H
