Speaking with one of the commits
sioners appointed to make survey Of
the food situation in the battle-torn
countries of Europe the writer was
told that the depletion and shortage
of food was far greater than anybody.
had expected. With the investigation,
which at that time had merely started,
much had been brought to light that
had only been surmised. Herds of live
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
way of cultivation can be carried on,
and even where that is done the work
of leveling and getting under cultiva-
tiOn will take a 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 people in the meantime is the task
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
those who have given the question
most careful thought and study is that
food scarcity will be greater than ever
before. The Allies will have to feed
Germany, Austria, Turkey and Russia
and this in addition to the require
ments Of European neutrals for in
creased supplies now that there is no
submarine menace.
To the Canadian and American farm
er this means demand for his grain
fully as great as at any time in the
past. Wheat will be needed, meat will
be required. The slogan "don't stop
saving food" is as necessary today as
ever. The purpose of this article is to
direct attention to the fact that hum
dreds of thousands of acres of land
in Western Canada are still unoccu-
pied, and this land is capable of pro-
ducing enough to supply all needs. On
its rich grasses are easily raised-and
cheaply too-the cattle that will be
sought; in it's soil lies the nutriment
that makes easy the production of the
grain that will be needed, and in both
the farmer will be assured of a good
profit on his investment. The land can
be purchased at low prices, on easy
terms, and with the abundance Of re-
turns that it will give, it does not mean
a matter Of speculation. The facts as
set out are known, and certainly are
guaranteed.
These facts, the low cost of the land,
and its great productivity, combined
with, the admirable marketing and
transport facilities at the disposal Of
the farmer make farming in Western
Canada an attractive proposition.-Ad-

troops have entered Kiev, Russia.

Archangel, Jan. 28-The Bolshe
Wiki are now on the offensive with
infantry or artillery, or both, against
four of the seven thin columns of the
allies and Russians, which have pen
etrated southwark through the froz-
en- forest swamps of the province OF
Archangel. The enemy entered Shen7
kursk while the third column of
Americans, Russians and British,
which had evacuated Shenkursk,
marched in detour over the deep
snow, evading a force of several hum
dred of the enemy, who waited on
the main road to trap the column in
it's retreat. Ia good spirit, despite
long marches in the cold and ten
days of hard fighting the Americans
and other troops on the allied force
were at Shegovari, approximately
thirty miles north-of Shenkursk, on
the Vago river, yesterday. The en-
emy apparently sent patrols to fol-
low the retreating troops, but no new
attacks have been made on this sec
tor.
The Bolsheviki attacked the allied
positions at Taresevo, village about
forty miles east of Shenkursk, in the
sector between the Vaga river and
the Vologda railroad. They were re-
pulsed with heavy losses, the Ameri-
can, British and Russian troops fight
ing with such valor that the enemy
column, which attacked on the left
of Taresevo along the Kotchmas
road, retired in considerable disor-
der, leaving twenty men dead in the
snow, cut down by the allied machine

an enemy column was spotted by the
American artillery and retreated un-
der a rain of shells.
