eddy this was the experience of many
farmers during 1915, but n instance
may be quoted. A settler who came
to Canada from the United States
some years ago decided to add to his,
holdings by buying an adjoining quar-
ter section neal his home at Warner,
at $4,000 an acre, with terms spread
over a period Of years. He got the
land into a good state of cultivation
and last spring put the whole quarter
section in wheat. When the crop was
threshed he found that it only took
half the wheat on the farm to pay the
whole purchase price Of it; in short
a single years crop paid the cost OF
the land, paid all the expenses Of OPP
Grafton and left L..m a handsome sur
plus as profit. This settler had ome
adjoining land, and his whole wheat
crop for the season amounted to
over $4,000 bushels. He is now plan

trade into new channels. One Of the
most extraordinary changes is In CON-
MERGE with the United States. A
couple of years ago Canada imported
from the United States two or three
hundred million dollars worth OF
goods more thar she exported. Tho
balance OF trade was all with the
United States. The balance is rapid
~ disappearing, and the present out
look is that by the end OF this year
Canada will have exported to the
United States more than she has i'm
ported.
The figures for the paet, four years
are illuminating, They are as fol-
lows:
Exports. Imports.

Four years ago, in 1912, the balance
Of trade in favor OF the United
States was no less than two hundred
and sixty-seven millions. and this
wear, the balance is reduced to only
thirty-two millions. The figures are
extraordinary and reflect the changed
and new conditions in Canada. II.
