LETTERS TO THE EDITOR cor NCIS SHOULD ARRANGE TO , HANDLE POORUFFS. Send Out People to ath the Prd dnce--~The War News dn the West. ~--What a Correspondent Has to Say. Toronto, Sept. 18.--(Té& the Edi- ior) :----It [is being publicly stated that apples, pears, plums, potatoes; and other fruits and vegetdbles are an abundant crop in Ontario, and that, owing to depression of the markets and the impossibility of shipping abroad there will be thous- ands of tons of valuable supplies left on the trees and in. the 'fields to rot. why should this be so? There are likely to be thousands in 'want very soon, money has been collected 'to meet the emergency of the needy. Why cannot the city fathers and those In charge of char- ity and emergency funds arrange with the farmers and produce grow- ers to take ev ing in the way of food stuffs so that there- will de abundant stores of supplies in eve ory town dnd city to serve all the needy with fruit and vegetables free or at a nominal price, I do not be- lieve In avoidable charity? Far bet- ter to spend the money now in hand to be collected in gathering or pur- chasing cheap food supplies. Why not send the people now out of work to the country to pick fruit and help the growers take 'care of everything edible? Better far to do 80 now than later on to supply mo- ney and foodstuffs as a charity. There are but few people who are out of work now that would not be glad to get a chance to go to the country and help gather supplies for themselves and others if given the opportunity. Who will help? In this Jand of planty why should there be want. and starvation, when by a little foresight and planning and in- vestment of funds in hand the hun- gry can be fed and much waste pre- vented. I know from personal observation and Investigation that it is quite .irue that the growers of fruit and vagetables every year let thousands of tons of fairly good supplies go utterly to waste and this year there is promise of greater wastage than This 4 whould not be, let us and take care of every- ng will be needed. -- N, 80 Home- wood Avenue, Toronto.
