Speaking with one Of the commits
sioners appointed to make a 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
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
way Of cultivation can be carried on,
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

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 bevprovided 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

To the Canadian and American farm
er this means demand for his grain
fully as great as ut 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 hun
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 fich grasses are easily raised-and
cheaply too-the cattle that will be
sought; In Its soil lies the nutriment
that makes easy the production Of the
grain that will be needed. and In both

be Purchased at low prices, on easy
terms, and with the abundance of re-
turns that II will give, IL does not mean
q 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 q the admirable marketing and |
