well as the most com- plicated problem confronting the government- and to that problem as much ministerial attention in being directed as to all others combined the farm in all its diverse activi ties is the greatest factor in the pro duction of new wealth in canada and when the farmer is making headway when he is relatively nrosperoua his condition la quickly reflected in all other phases of national life if- he be prosperous it ts hot difficult to gear other industries to his stride but when the farmer 1s tmproverisned no amount of fcujmui ingenuity can make urban existence saosfactofx pallla- umlste but until the fuitdamebtal affineft is cured there is no real hops for us as a class he farmer today is not prosperous in nihy communities he is in distress and it la to determine the causes and to arrtvo at remedies which will be permanent that evey official energy to now being bent the causes ot distress are not so simple or superficial as many of our homemade economists suggest in communities where there were no crops there is distress and in others where crops were abundant there is distress because world production was mate than ihe reouliwnenti of cotp me ijev turners

robert welf minister or agriculture is agam in the west conferring with farm organi zations and with individuals who have made a success of farming in the face of great discouragement these con ferences will help him set the course of government activity already tm- portant reorgahixatiou steps have been instituted in his department with the idea of bringing it into more use ful contact with farm life there are phases other than pro duction and marketing which are also claiming attention financing is one of them mortgages are not a general ly satisfactory solution partlcuarly when short term credits are required ordinarily the banks exist for the latter purpose but things do not al ways work oiil that way a story came to ottawa this week of a saska tchewan farmer with 1 130 acres un der cultivation and all unmortgaged he was unable to get a loan from his bank if he was in that position what chance had the average rarmer none one trouble is that the banks send to the westydurjg men absolutely un acquainted with rarming conditions and unschooled in estimating charac ter the only thing to do is to put around them a set or unelastic regu lations they dare not depart from them and credits which should be given are not extended for head of- b hav uu knuwl uf tha oharac- ter of the individual and character is almost as fundamental as security in credit extension in one section of saskatchewan where there had not been a crop fail ure in the ten years between 1910 and 1929 and during which years wheat sold between 150 and 250 per bus hel the farmers were not able to weather the storm of a single year of poor prices the government has been compelled to go to their assist ance thrlfuessness of that character is something no government can cure perhaps the experience will teach the esson of laying by for the rainy day but it is problematical taken all together the fanning population and its welfare is the first concern of the government and there are hopes that permanent betterment as well as immediate relief will arise out of the policies now in process of formulation to achieve that end the hearty and genera coolperation of those it is desired

manner that he would use others to do to wards himself this onesided way of dealing with it and complaining that collections are bad when he himself is not active in making settlement lp his own
