Louis Hebert, Canada's first practi- cal farmer, was a member oi that little colony at Port Royal (Annapolis Royal) who, in 1605, firs‘! attempted to cultivate Canadian soil. Later, in 1616, he settled in Quebec, made a clearing on the heights oi Cape Diamond, cultivated it with his own hands, acquired a flei and became, except for Chem,‘ ‘n, the leading

citizen of Quebec. Above is depic- ted a monument tohis msmcrywhich today stands in the City oi Quebec.
