A large pro- portion of these have been withdrawn from the farms of the countries at war. Even in neutral countries large numbers of food producers have been called from the land to be ready for emergencies. It is difficult for us to realize what will be the effect on food pro- duction through the withdrawal of several million men from all the great agriculture' countries of Europe. These millions cease to be producers, they Have become consumers, —worse still, they have become destroyers of food." HON. MARTIN BURRELL, Minister of Agriculture. Britain roust have food—food this year, and food next year. Britain is looking to Canada to supply most of that food. We are sending our surplus now, but we must prepare for a larger surplus this year and next year. Patriotism and Production must go hand in hand. Because of this need of the Empire for more food, and the call to Canada in that need, the Canadian Depart- ment. , of Agriculture has arranged for a series of Conferences throughout the Dominion with the object of giving suggestions as to the best ways of increasing production of the particular products needed at this time. At these con- ferences agricultural specialists, who have studied agricultural conditions and produc- tion throughout the world, and the best means of increasing agricul- tural production in Canada, will give valuable information and suggestions to the farm- ers, live -stock men, dairymen, poultrymen, vegetable growers, and other producers of this country. The Canad- ian Department of Agriculture urges you to attend as many of these Con- ferences as possible, also to watch for other information on the subject that will be given in other announcements in this newspaper. ATT YO CONFE END UR RENCE Put Energy into Production of Staple Foods The Government does not ask farmers to work harder, so much as it urges them to make their work more productive, and to produce those staple foods that the Empire most needs and that can be most easily stored and transported. Europe, and', particularly- Britain, articularlyBritain, will need the following staple foods from Canada more than ever before: Wheat, eats, corn, beans, peas. Beef, mutton, bacon and ham. Cheese and butter. Canadian Department of Agriculture, Ottawa, Ca 111 Poultry and eggs. Vegetables, such as potatoes, onions, and turnips. The larger the yield of these staple food products, the greater the service to the Empire. Germany in the last ten years has doubled the.ia'ierage yield of the majoritl of her'field crops largely ttrough better' seed, thorough cultivation and use of fertilizer. And while the Empire's armies are busy putting down Gerrnan Militar- fsm, let us at home appropriate the best of Germany's agricul- tural methods for the Empire's advantage. The Government urges farmers, stockmen, dairymen and other producers to make a wider use of the Free. Bulletins issued by the Canadian Depart- ment of Agriculture.
