Among our returned soldiers there are thousands of practical farmers; Still- otherithousands are studying farming- under C'anada’s supervision, by hiring out‘»to-farmers, and by taking _courses in agricultural colleges. These 'men wanf__ -to'f“go'__. on .the land,”-' but they have no capital. So, through the medium of the Soldiers’ Land Settlement Act, Canada says to them “ If you are fully qualified to farm, I will lend; you money to purchase land, stock and imple- ments. You- may pay it back within a stated time, and for the loan of _ it, I will charge you onlyainoderate rate of-interest.” ’ - V
Canada makes this offer, not only because men who have fought deserve well of their country, but because it 'is of prime importance that_rnore land should
' ‘be cultivated. ' - ,_ . . _
The love .of -outdoor life and the 'resourcefulness of our soldier citizens are just the qualities to make them successful farmers, and upholders ofthe best Canadian tradition. l ~ V ~
As _evidence of the value of the Land Settlement Act, the following figures were available on August 1-5:-- ' ` -

more than-6,000 other farms are now being worked, many of which would have been lessfproductive--if returned soldiers' had _not taken them over. _ _
It is jusi,§as‘»true to-day as it was before the war that big crops favorably marketed
mean prosperity for Canada-r _
The and farm products Canada grows and sells, the. more money will be spread through all classes of the community. ' Not only the farmer but the merchant, the manufacturer, the industrial wage earner and the professional man will`§lS.`e“n`efit. ' ` - ‘ ' - ' .»
