s
charge of the distribution
•
o1 seed grain and relief in
Western Canada throughout the past
year, and the taking of security'
therefor, has had underconsideration
the question of collections to be made
this fall.
. The advances commenced early
last winter, and were made neeessary
by the extreme .misfortune which
Western Canada suffered from the
drought in 1914. It was hoped at,
the,
time that the amount required would
not be undulylarge,"as the outbreak
pf war was making extraordinary de-
mands upon the financial resources of
the Dominion. The amount has, how-
ever, reached very large limits. These
has been advanced up to July 31 for
seed grain $8,534,018.37, and for
other goods by way of relief and fod-
der for animals $4,075,420.89, mak-
ing a total of $12,609,439;21. As-
sistance was given, of course, by rea-
son of a temporary misfortune, and

for other, relief (in eases where both
relief and seed grain and fodder have
been provided) these will not be In-
sisted on this year. Where, however,
no seed grain or fodder has been pro-
vided, but relief only, one half of the
amount advanced for relief will be
expected to be returned.
It must be 'remembered that this
seed grain, fodder, ai3d relief distri-
bution has been a most extensive and
far spread undertaking,. A definite
and consistent system of collection
must be adopted. It is not an easy
matter to work out such a system
without entailing too great expense
of organization. Consequently, the
purchasers of grain have been asked
to co-operate in the matter of collec-
tions. In this way the organization
at their disposal is used and the ne-
cessity for heavy expenditure on the
part of the Government avoided..
The Minister confidently hopes that
all who have received assistance and
the people of the West generally,
will accept the policy of the reduced
amount to be collected this year as
fair and equitable, and that all will
co-operate and lend their assistance
to work out successfully.
Financing Crop.
Aside from the question of ocean
tonnage and exchange there should
be no difficulty in moving the Cana-
dian crop, although. it may take
longer than usual. Certainly there
should be no difficulty in financing
the movement. The banks are more
liquid than they have been for years
In addition they have as a reserve
their emergency circulation and the
facilities afforded under
the Finance
Act of 1914 by which they can ob-
tain advances in Dominion _ notes
against grain bills and other securi-
ties.
eeurities. So far as concerns credits to
farmers, two recent amendments to
the Bank Act introduced by Aon. W.
T. White, are important. Under one
a bank may take security upon grain
remaining in the farmers' possession,
and under the other the bank may
take security upon a crop for seed
grain advances. The financial legis-
lation of the Dominion seems to have
provided all possible facilities for the
financingcrop of the movement.
HON. Die, ROOHE,
Minister of Interior.
Sketch by McConnell,
was, of course, of a temporary nature.
Fortunately the Government was not
called upon to lend its aid except in
the Provinces of Alberta and Saskat-
chewan. These are the Provinces
that suffered most.
It has been a matter for congratul-
ation that the policy adopted has
been justified not only by the neces-
sities of the time, but by subsequent
events. This year's crop, particularly
in the drought -stricken district, is
the best in the history of Western
Canada.
The bulk of the seed grain was
purchased by the Government at a
comparatively moderate price, and
the farmers got it at the price the
Government paid for it Plus expense
of handling. A great many demands
came in very late, and as these were
found on investigation to be tot the
most part deserving, some grain had
to be bought at the advanced price
that prevailed in the spring. But in
the main the Government was fortun-
ate in making its purchases early.
Per many mouths it looked as if
an excellent price was to await the
marketing of the 1915 crop. This,
however, does not now seem so prob-
able. The large acreage in other
countries, and particularly the excep-
tionally good crop prospects in the
United States, with the depressed
condition of exchange• and shortage
of ocean tonnage have had the effect
of greatly reducing the quotations for
wheat, barley, and oats: The Minister
of the Interior has had this consider-
ation under review, and it has also
been impressed upon him that this
year the Western farmers have a
great many of last year's obligations
still to take care of—last year's in-
terest on mortgages, and in many
cases indebtedness to local merch-
ants. As a consequence even with
the present excellent crop conditions
it will not be in every ease an 'easy
matter to finance unusual obligations
this year. Having regard to and hav-
ing fully considered all the circum-
stances now prevailing, the Minister
has decided to ask for payment this
year of one-half only of the seed
grain and fodder advances together
with interest. ` As for the advances

PREMIER BORDEN BRINGS
MESSAGE FROM SOLDIERS
At the great welcome accorded Sir
c
Robert Borden in Montreal on his
return from England, he gave to the
people of Canada a message from our
gallant soldiers at 1 be front.
"Even greater than this' said the
Premier, "was my privilege of-visit-
ing
fvisit-
ing the convalescent hospitals. There
I met our gallant men who had come
back from the very valley of the
shadow of death. They had gone
through as trying ordeals as have
ever been recorded in the history of
the world, but I' found them all
cheerful, and all inspired with the
same courageous determination as
those others still at the front. It was
an inspiration to me, and I telt, when
I addressed a thousand convalescent
Canadians that it was the noblest
audience I had over faced. Altogether
I visited 41 hospitals where Cana-
dians were, and at these I met men
from all parts of the Empire who had
fought in France, Belgium, and the
Dardanelles—the men who won tame
at Ypres, Festurbert, and Givenchy.
They were from many lands; but they
were all comrades, who had fought
and would fight again for the same
cause. It was a spectacle- that gave
to me a truer sense of the unity of
our Empire than. I had ever had be
fore, and I come back to you no
with a clear message of Empire fro
them.
"I bring from the front this mea
sage from our soldiers: that the
have done their duty in the past, are
prepared to do it in the future, and
that no conclusion of the war will be
satisfactory unless it brings to the
Empire, for all the sacrifices they
have made, the satisfaction of attain-
ing the object fought for. Any
nation that undertakes to establish
the doctrines of spoliation shall go
down beneath the might and con-
i tempt of the world,"
MANY CONVALESCENT
HOMES ARE OFFERED
The following private homes, ou'
di the large number which have bee
offered, have been accepted as mill
Lary convalescent homes, and are in
operation or will be in a few days:
The home of airs. J. K. L. Ross, Syd
ney, N.S.; the home of Mrs. R. B.
Dobell, Quebec; the Khaki League
Home, Montreal; a home furnished
by the Imperial Order of Daughters
of the Empire, Winnipeg; the home
of Mrs. .1, F. Ross, Toronto; the
home of Mr. Hugh Macpherson,
Kingston, and a home lent by Mrs.
Parks at St, John, N.B. The com-
mission anticipates receiving consid
erable assistance in the operation of
the convalescent homes from those
who are anxious to sender some ser
vice at this juncture. Voluntary aid
committees have been established in
the divisional area and military dis
tricts, and will organize crops of Incal
