DOMINION'S EFFORT

Welded together by the slogan pa

vertisements designed to urge farmers of
the Dominion to Guido themselves this
year is appea ring in practically every
Canadian farm paper and countryside
weekly.
These advertisements are being pub
lished under the direction of the Cana
dian Department of Agriculture and
state in unmistakable terms that the
British empire will need food more this
year than it has in recent times
The farmers are asked to attend the
agricultural conferences which are being
held throughout the country to aid them
to meet tn" unusual demand for food
by greatly increased crpps Experts
on the various phases Of farming have
been scheduled to speak at these confer
ences.
Approximately twenty million men
have been modified in Europe. \ large
proportion of these have been with
drawn from the countries at war Even
in neutral countries a large number OF
food producers have been called from
the land to be ready for emergencies
1t is difficult for us to realize what will
be the effect on food production through
the withdrawal of several million mon
from all the great agricultural cuuntIir,
of Europe. These millions cease to be
producers, they have become consum-
ers-worse STILL they have become de-
stroyers of food" This is one of the
Leading para graphs Of one of the adver-
tsements.
Some of the advertisements are con
centrated on separate phases of the food
problem. Fertilization and thorough
cultivation are discussed in one in
stance.
Germany. France. Belgium, Holland
and Denmark have increased their food
production enormously during the last 2
years through cultivation. fertilization
