+�uaii`ties, has been developed by R.
C. Harvey, an Alberta sheep raiser.

cause the purchaser desired the fin-

that could be secured.

some of them. •-
Quack remedies and academic
theories beset her path on every
side. Some suggest that our debt
worries can best be eased by go-
ing further into debt. Others
preach blue ruin, decry their own
country and indulge in mis-
chievous propaganda generally,
while still others look for a new
social order or some miraculous
sign to indicate a better coming
day -ell this in apparent forget-
fulness of the fact that just as
there was no royal road to win
the watt, there is now no royal
road to pay for it or regain our
former buoyancy, vigor and
confidence.
Sonne are leaving Canada hop-
. ing to escape taxation, only to,
find there is no escape anywhere.
In seeking for easy remedies too
many of us overlook the fact
that etc greatest remedy is hon-
est, hard work faithfully and
intelligently performed, accom-
panied bye old-fashioned thrift.
it 'iidces time, it takes patience,
it takes grit. But every Canadian
knows in his heart that Canada
is cowing through all right.
Our Experience Proves It
Look back over the path Canada
has trod. The French Colonists,
cut off from civilization by 3,000
a
miles of sea, faced
continent -
a w•i,U4erness-without the aid of
even a blazed trail. They had
to fight savages, frosts, scurvy,
loneliness and starvation.
The United Empire Loyalists
subdued an unbroken forest in
one generation, growing their
first wheat amid the stumps and
snags of the new clearing.
The Selkirk settlers orae to
Manitoba when the prairie was a
buffalo pasture, and -grew wheat
where none had grown before
and where those who knew the
country best at that time said
wheat would never grow. To-
day the Canadian prairies grow
the finest wheat in the world.
In proportion to population Canada
stands to -day among the wealthiest
nations in the world, with average
savings on deposit per family of
$800. Canada's foreign trade per head
of ' population stands amongst the
highest of the commercial nations,
being. $192 per capita in 1922-23, as
compared with $135 in 1913-14, the
"peak" year before the war.
New Opportunities for
Canada
In Canada, although prices in the
world markets fell below war level,
our farmers reaped last autumn the
largest grain crop in Canadian his-
tory, and Canada became the world's
largest exporter of wheat, thus in
large measure making up for lower
prices.
Last year, Great Britain, after an
agitation extending over thirty years,
removed the embargo on Canadian
cattle, and a profitable and practically
unlimited trade is opening up For
Canadian stockers and feeders.
"The 20th Century belongs to
Canada" -if Canadians xeep faith.
The next article will suggest prac-
tical opportunities for profit making
on our Canadian farms.
