'levelop these as they have not yet been developed

Through all the past years we have been dissipating to our energies in coniiection with these two callings.- va In the great majority of cases we have been spreading th ourselves over farms that are far beyond our ability in to cover properly, and as a result the majority of our th iarins are poor, unprofitable, wasteful. In other cases' Ge we have divided our energies between farming and ha lishing and have made a failure 'of both. Agriculture to

and fishing are separate and distinct callings and sel-

dom, if ever, succeed when prosecuted together. Co’

Farming is our one great calling and must be con- 0 ducted on business principles, as any industrial or. a

comniercial undertaking must be conducted if it is T going to succeed. Our fishing opportunities are also ex

great and, with one or two exceptions, undeveloped. U All these resources must now be exploited and 3

developed to their full. The time for haphazard m farming has gone by. The comparatively few who eq have made it a matter of. business have succeeded, ey

the others are barely making a living. A gentleman $ who until a few years ago had spread himself over q a two hundred acre farm and \vho saw the iinwisdom 3

“PATRIDTIC X685 SCHEME”

The Grain Growers’ Association of Saskatchewan s adopted a novel patriotic movement which is ttracting attention not only in Canada but also in

the biggest things ever carried through by the

The idea originated with a director of the Associa- n, who submittd it to the Executive and later to the nnual convention at Regina in February 1915 and s adopted with the greatest enthusiasm. Each farmer was invited to contribute the proeceds‘ one or more acres to the patriotic fund. Each nner was left free.t'o make any contribution yhc. sired and as a consequence the amounts promised aried from as low as fifty cents'in_ cash to the product f ten acres of wheat. One contributor gave 400 ushels of wheat, the product of ten acres. Another

gest cash contributions were $154 and $135. Up the first of the present iriontli the actual contri- tions received, as distinct from promises. amounted 56,000 bushels of grain and $r5,ooo in cash. All wheat contributed is ‘being handled by the rious elevators free of charge, while the milling elf e flour has beenundertaken by the largest mills the province at actual cost. -The co-operation of e Dominion Government has been *secured and Sir orge E. Foster, Minister of Tradé and Commerce,` s guaranteed free transportation acro_ss the Atlantic Great Britain. ._ I The move is a splendid one pnd the magnificent ntribution already made, togethpr with the promise f much more coming, is a cre‘d.it to the patriotism nd the genefosity of' the Saskatchewan; farmers. he product of on acre of a large farm is not an travagant gift to such a cause, but multiplied by ie number of willing farmers in fthe province it has lready reachqtl the handsonre fcontifbutioii above entioned. A similar scheme could be worked with ual success in any one of the other provinces. For ample, in _our own province we raised last year 11,130,090 worth of produce ‘on our million and. a
