No longer can anyone sit back calmly with the knowledge
that Canada is a great storehouse of food -that our fighting
forces and we at home are sure of ample food supplies. The
beef shortage and the rationing of foods are evidence that
supplies are growing scarce.

shortages. First, our nation is exporting more food than ever
before in her history. Second, our.fariners are short-handed,

late harvesting in September. There are two very difficult
peaks to get over with haying and harvesting in the Summer
