Government. and 100 acres OF It can

Another vast area is that held by

proved farms are slightly higher In

lands may be had OF any Canadian
Government Agent.
The fact that Canada offers such q
splendid opportunity should be &C
cepted with widespread apprecia-
ton, and not met with attempts ON
the part of some to spread misleading
statements. The Dominion Govern
ment has not taken steps to deny
many Of the false statements circu-
lated by those who evidently are more
interested in injuring Canada than
benefiting those who would be bene-
fitted by taking up farms in Canada.
but in order to correct highly err
roneous impression that CONSUMPTION
Is carried on in Canada, that compul-
sorry military service Ia employed. and
that there Is restraint as to the move
ment of those not Canadians. the ne
cessity is felt Of giving as much pub
licity as possible to denial of these
statements.
An item to which special exception
Is taken is one which says:
They are sending them away az
rapidly az possible; but the young
men are not permitted to leave Cam
ada. All the citizens. and those who
have taken out homesteads are subject
to military duty"
In direct reputation of this, we beg
to quote from recent editorial In the
Rochester. N. Y. Herald:
There is no legal process by which
Great Britain can command q single
Canadian soldier to enter the field In
her aid or even in her most needful
defense. Great Britain cannot legally
take dollar of Canada's money for
this or any other war without Can
ada's consent All must be given vol
unfairly, II 1t be given at all. Yet
men and dollars are given to the limit
Of Canadas power to give. just as II
Great Britain had both physical and
legal power to exact them. Indeed,
1t is possible that they are giving
more freely in this way. for what q
man gives because he wants to give
is likely to be greater than what he
gives under force.
"All in all It is a noble picture Of
devotion to her motherland which
Canada offers to the gaze of her ad-
miring and envious neighbors."
Canada's invitation for immigration
extends to all who are willing to 60

ness done by many OF the manufac-
turing institutions Of the United
States. commercial enterprises have
been affected. business of many kinds
have been hampered. and a financial
stringency has been forced on almost
every community. It is not only be-
cause 1t has brought these things
about, and created lot of hardship.
but there Is the outstanding fact Of
the terrible loss Of life. the great de-
struction Of property, and the disrup-
ton OF everything near and dear to
those whose countries are involved in
the war that makes the whole affair
highly regrettable. The heart of the
entire world goes out In sympathy to
those within the area of the trouble
Arrangements have been made to re-
lieve the distress by money and other
means. But there is one great thing
wheat and hour-that the European
countries will need. The wheat-pro-
ducing countries are no longer pro-
ductng. and there is the gravest rea-
SON to fear that they will not be for
some years. In this case. 1t would be
fully as beneficial and charitable to
make provision to meet the loss Of
Europe's grain crop by encouraging
greatly increased growth on this con-
tinent.
The wheat-growing sections OF the
United STATES have about reached
their lime OF production. and this
source cannot be depended upon to
meet q great deal of the demand that
there will be for some years. The
only country that is In position to
