It is estimated that agriculture contributes approximately twenty- four per cent of the total Canadian railway freight tonnage. According - to G. E. McIntosh, the officer in charge of transportation in the - Fruit Branch of the Department of. 'Aguicutture of Canada, Canadian railways will this year have handled possibly 15,000 car loads of apples. In his article, which appears in The Agricultural Gazette for December, Mr. McIntosh points out that the country is today more interested in safe and rapid transportation than in cheap transportation. - Growers and shippers, he states, in many producing sectihns of Canada are still. marketing under adverse transporta- tion conditions. Where the situa- tion is such the Frait Commissioner is Prepared to afford the assistance of his branch in an effort to strength- en the weak points. Mr. McIntosh concludes his article with the follow- ing: "There is this to bear in mind, that proportionately to population, Canada is even better equipped in railway mileage than our neighbors to, the soiath, who ave ,five times better equipped, than .the Europeen countries, This being the gate, ag- rieulture in all its 'branches and the railways of . Canada are inter: dependent." A SHEET OF WHITE PAPER I -look at yeti, liiiic ,white sheet of paper, And -wonder the . source :of your coming to Sight!
