I hope you are all well. It's a poor country, always raining. It's no use putting any more in for it would only be consored any- way, So long Ted. From Pte. E.

Dear Father;—It is nearly three weeks now since I've got a letter from Canada. I am beginning to wonder if youNiaave all quit writing. We are leaving for France any hour now. We have all the new Webb equip- ment and we got served out with 120 rounds of ammunition each today so the time must be pretty short. Wo were reviewed by the king last Thurs- day, the 4th. He looks pretty worried looking. . The king asked our Colonel where we came from and all about us. The king congratulated him on the men he is commanding. Our Battalion is the beat in the field. I suppose you have read in the Toronto paper that the Queen's Own are the best and the only ones under •canvas. It's a lie all through. We are under canvas besides the other two battalions, four Batts. to a Brigade. We trimmed them at shooting, trench digging, marching and practically everything. I feel none the worse for the winter under canvas, Well, I hope this letter will find you all in the best of health and lots of work. So long Ted U. S. Wheat Crop. There has been some discussion as to whether or not United States prohibit the export of wheat. The statistics are interesting— "The 1914 wheat crop of the United States was estimated to be 891,000,000 bushels. The estimated surplus carried over from the 1913 crop was about 70,000,000 bushels. There was, there- fore, a total available supply of 907,- 000,000 bushels. The normal annual per capita consumption of wheat in the United States is about 5,3 bushels Five hundred and twenty million bushels should meet our normal do- mestic requirements for food, In ad. dition 90,000,000 bushels are required annually for seeding. Six hundred and ten million bushels, therefore, should supply the .normal domestic demand. Thie would leave a surplus of 357,000,000 bushels, Of this surplus about 210,000.000 bushels were export- ed by January 30. This left 147,000,- 000 bushels, or 40,000,000 bushels more than our average annual export for 'the past five yeare, for export between February 1 and the appearance of the new crop, or for carrying over into the next crop year. This amount is sufficient to permit the export of nearly 1,000,000 bushels a day until July 1, before which time the new crops will begin to be available. This is about the average recent exporta- tion." Turnberry Report for S,S No. 11, Turnberry and Morris.

Naturally --if we sold that way—our prices would have to he 25% to 50% higher than at present, Or the QUALITY of our Fence would have to be lowered.
