Canada was not built up by pes- simists, nor will Canada continue to develop if. her' people allow them- selves to become croakers and grouchers. Canada is fundamentally an agricultural country. We have a soil and climate which can grow the world's finest. agricultural pro- ducts. Canadian farm- ers..who have earned the capital invested in their farms out of profits 3n. farming are. numbered in thou-. sands. These suc- cessful farmers have paid off their mortgages, stocked their barns and stables, bought their machinery, made a good living and brought up their fami- lies. It meant' hard work, .but today they are independent. Money in Mixed Farming In recent years, at different points on the prairies, oats fed to steers have brought from 70c to $1.07 as against the Fort William price of 42cper bushel, while barley used for the sante purpose has brought as high as 99c as against the Fort William price of 57c per bushel, Partners marketing their coarse graihs in this way lower marketiing cost, have a sure market and mule money on their grain, while at the same time they market their roughage, otherwise often wasted. The cattle embargo is now off. Steers are worth' more motley and certain to make good money fors the Canadian farmer from now ore Money i22 Pigs The Dominion Experimental Farms have proved by actual test that there is a profit in feeding pigs. Last year at the Central Farm, Ottawa, after paying noted for courage,, optimism for feed, labor, interest and depreciation, the net profit ,per pig was still $4.63. Profits from Sheep As money-makers, sheep are hard to beat. In every Province from Prince Edward Island to British Columbia are found many flocks returning generous profits to their owners, We Must Cut Production Costs Canada is meeting with the keenest competition in the mark- eting of her products.. To hold her own and regain her place on. the world's market, she must re- duce cost of production. The only way to do this is to increase production per acre, per cow or per other unit. But improved quality, also, is. essential' : to meet market de - mends. • The quantity and the quality of the products and the cost of production in competitive coun- tries is beyond our control. Prices of agricultural products are regulated by world supply and demand. Hence, decreasing production will not kelp the Canadian farrier. Nth it. Mai Poultry hcys Poultry makes money for those who adoptmodern meth- ods, whether East or West. Little Prince Edward Island mark- ets co-operatively in carlots, shipping an- nually upwards of one million dozen eggs. The British Columbia Co-operative Poultry Men's Exchange markets in the sane way, thus saving ruinous glut in their local market. There is a market for good Canadian horses, whether light or draught. Grow Seed Canada's Northern grown seed possesses extra vitality. There tims. „ w.. ..,..::. is a large market for it to the south: Can- ada exports seed potatoes, but imports other seeds. She has the opportunity to grow seeds for herself and for export: The Future ' Ten years from now the pessimists of today will have been forgotten. Britain has removed the embargo .against our cattle. She wants our beef and bacon, our cheese, butter, eggs and apples, our wheat and flour. As the population of the United States increases, she will compete less and less against us on the British market. ,Eventually, she will herself be animporter of many other food stuffs besides wheat from this country. Canada has the men, the. climate, the land, the stock and the potential mark- ets necessary ;for agricultural success. Let us farm with all the industry and seience we Can muster. Let's get to work and pay our debts. Canada is nioviiig forward with confidence in its future.. Let tis keep going ahead. u Authorized foe publication by the Dominion »e arttnetlt of Agriotilture n Wteae Miriistorr •br, S.18.

' Mrs. Garbutt's daughter describes' her Mother's symptoms and the re-, markable effect Dreco has had on thein in the following statement: "Mother has suffered severely from rheumatism for quite some time, causing terrible pains in .her joints.' Her stomach too ;vas in very poor condition. Her food soured, result- ing . in gas and finally she lost her appetite and could eat hardly any- thing without Buffering afterwards, "She always had a. pain across her kidneys and at times could hardly bend over. Her system became very weak and run-down. "We tried everything possible, but our praise is all for Dreco, as it has done her more good in just a short time than anything else` we have ever tried. The pains in her'' back and joints are almost gone. Her appetite is now good, she is much stronger and looks better in every way, She thinks there is nothing like Dreco and we are all so glad to notice the change. Dreco has proved its worth to us and we highly recommend it" Dreco will always prove Helpful in; such cases if given .a fair trial, It corrects digestive ailments and builds up the system generally by the na- tural action of its herb, root, bark and leaf juices.
