If you have more than $10 .
in U.S. cash you should
turn it in to your bank,
in exchange for Canadian
dollars, without delay. Ex
isting regulations make it
illegal for any Canadian
resident to retain in his
possession more than $10
in United States cash.
HERE’S THE REASON
's
Canada must have the
U.S. dollars spent here by
tourists in order to make
them available for the pay
ment of imported goods
and services needed to
keep production and em
ployment at a high level.

Hf you were a farmer it might seem that
way at first glance* But take another look!
Those fine crops, which mean so much
to Canada’s health and economy, often
depend upon chemical fertilizers.
Weed and pest destroyers, orchard sprays
too, are but a few of the services that
chemical research extends to agriculture.
Through good times and bad, the
chemical industry plows a straight
furrow, ever moving forward to create
better things for fanm industry and
home. Look to chemistry with confidence
for a finer future ... and to the G-I-L
oval symbol of an organization devoted
to serving Canadians through chemistry^
