told that the depletion and shortage

much had been brought to light that
had only been surmised. Herds Of live
stock were completely wiped out, fields
that had been prolific yielders Of grain,
roots and vegetables were terraced and
hummocked by bombs and shells,
many Of them still lying unexploded
and dangerous. Until this land can be
gone over and cleaned nothing in the
and even where that is done the work
Of leveling and getting under cultiva-
ton will take long time.
Much more devolves upon the farmer
on this side Of the Atlantic than was
at first supposed. Herds Of live stock
will have to be replenished, and this
will take years; the provisioning of
the farmers here will be asked to un-
dertake. Producing countries will be
taxed to their utmost to meet this de-
mand; all that can be provided will
be needed. This need will continue
for some time, and during this period
prices will be high. The opinion Of

direct attention to the fact that hun

In Western Canada are still unoccu-

its rich grasses are easily raised-and

set out are known. and certainly are
