     Just to wait for tho Budget and I

     one explanation, I think three 
     
     years ago, from the hon. member 
     
     for Red Deer (Mr. Clark). After 
     
     an amendment to the Budget had 
     
     been moved, he came forward in a 
     
     drslmatic manner into Parliament 
     
     and moved something pretty close 
     
     to the Farmers’ plaform. But he 
     
     found. of course, that there could 
     
     be only one amendlmcnt to the 
     
     Budget. and so in tear-s he had to 
     
     withdraw his rmction, lamenting 
     
     the fact that. the rules oi the 
     
     House forbade him to move e 
     
     second amendment. But what 
     
     about all the years since? Why 
     
     did he not at least once get up 
     
     and move his amendment ibefore 
     
     some one else intervened? Surely 
     
     his colleagues directly opposite are 
     
     not so dlscourteous to him-so dis- 
     
     courteous that they insist on being

     Success comes, in any business, 
     
     only to those who have a high 
     
     ideal and keep advancing. On the 
     
     other hand failure waits for the 
     
     man who is content to allow his 
     
     business to magnate. Breeders" 
     
     of livestock are facing problems 
     
     today that require expert business 
     
     like handling. The high cost of 
     
     feed, labor and heavy overhead ex 
     
     penses are matters for average 
     
     farmers and which they find cou- 
     
     frcntlng them every dsy. 
     
     Successful farmers have already 
     
     realized the value of good breed- 
     
     ing ln livestock. Testimonies 
     
     from these men are easily obtained 
     
     and should convince the most sire 
     
     ptical that the only way to Ibeai! 
     
     the lafoor problem, cost of feed etc 
     
     is to keep only those animals that 
     
     are bred to produce either milk or 
     
     beef. 
     
     The surveys conducted by Prof. 
     
     Leitcll in the different counties all 
     
     go to prove that where farmers are 
     
     using pure bred sires in either bee.‘ 
     
     or dairy herds, they are making 
     
     greater incomes with practically 
     
     the same quantity of feed.

     Budget, our trade taken in total 
     
     has actually advanced over the 
     
     total of the year before; that our 
     
     figures represent an annual trade 
     
     of $125,000,000 odd more than they 
     
     represented in the year that ended 
     
     on March 31. I020. Our imports 
     
     have gone up by some $175,000,000 
     
     and our exports have gone 
     
     down by some $50,000,000. 
     
     Our imports indeed ere reis- 
     
     tively too high. The figures as to 
     
     the diminution of exports are rela- 
     
     tively small considering the period 
     
     we have passed through and tbs 
     
     totals are gratifying to every man 
     
    
   
   
    
       
     
    
   
   
    
     diture: and, no doubt, in a very 
     
     great degree due to tha is the 
     
     favourable financial statement 
     
     which that country is able to pre- 
     
     sentt now. In qpr country, as 
     
     everyone knows, we did not pro- 
     
     vide war supplies on the same 
     
     system as they did. ‘Our soldiers 
     
     were supplied on the per capita 
     
     basis, supplies being furnished by 
     
     Great. Britain overseas. we paying 
     
     so much per day. Consequently, 
     
     we ended the war with much less 
     
     in the way of supplies than they 
     
     did; in fact, our supplies were sl- 
     
     most negligible as compared with 
     
    
   
   
    
     gulsrly opposite, the Farmers’ 
     
     party, as to why they had not 
     
     moved their platform all these 
     
     years in amendment to the Budget 
     
     ‘or in amendment to the motion to 
     
     go into Supply. After struggling 
     
     hard to get a reason I succeeded 
     
     in getting a promise from the hon. 
     
     member for Victoria and-Carleton 
     
     (Mr. Caldwell), who told me that 
     
     they would move their platform 
     
     all right, and asked me just to 
     
     wait and be patient. Well, -l have 
     
     nearly at the end of another ses- 
     
     walted another year. We are 
     
     nearly at‘ the end of another ses- 
     
    
   
   
    
     the amendment in such shape that 
     
     they could all get in on the vote. 
     
    

    
     I went through Western Canada 
     
     last fall. On many platforms l 
     
     informed the people there of the 
     
     game the Fanmer leaders-all in- 
     
     corrlgi-hie party mcn-‘were play- 
     
     ing. The great number of the 
     
     audiences were farmers, a great 
     
     many of them were followers of 
     
     my hon. friend the member for 
     
     Marquette (Mr. Crsrar). no doubt 
     
     in the world about that: they know 
     
     what they want out there, they 
     
     know they wan-‘t precisely what l 
     
     said they wanted in the city oi

     tionship of his prosperity or, re- 
     
     verse on ‘their own business and 
     
     the business of the whole commun- 
     
     ity of the whole country. 
     
    

    
     Now as to some of the results of 
     
     the above attitude namely h-indr- 
     
     ance to the development of the 
     
     country as a whole, and now that 
     
     conditions are unfavorable, hard 
     
     times, and the danger of even har- 
     
     der times to come. ' 
     
     Up to the present the farmer 
     
     hlls had hard work to procure the 
     
     necessary money to make the pro- 
     
    
   
   
    
     ple to leave the farm and go to the 
     
     oity will not be eliminated to any 
     
     great extent until they are fitted 
     
     iby their education to occupy a1: 
     
     least as good a position, anal 
     
     to command as high n salary in 
     
    
   
   
    
     they can get in the city. And ti’! - 
     
     mil they see agriculture taking i1. 
     
     proper place as the most impel’-
