This Sima particu- larly theuse potential prairies-- are strategetically placed to sup- ply the needs of Europe, where the want is the plainest and all imporrtant, and that is: Food for unproducing, hungry millions. Production has always been the master-key to material progress, but that fact has never been so widely known as in these days. Shall we apply ourselves to the world's need at this time? On the manner of our answer depend the future influence of this broad land amongst the nations. The Soldier Settlement Board ol Canada is only a two-year-old to-day, and the future of this war- child is bright with the promise of expansion. these prairie lands, we are build- ing the base of our people far- spread into the soil. In that lies the hope of the world itself. The most fertile seedbed of the thing we have come to know as "bolshe- vism" is-that spot, whenever or vherever it may be found, where -hick masses of the people congre- gate, owning nothing much be- yond their clothes and their work- In the Canadian West 'we have the high privilege of ex- tending the miracle of citizenship {and ownership throughout all the people. And so, with our wealth ing out over these wide prairies, nay we not go into the future} safely, and even radiantly--as our boys went forward in glorious days we know of--a spearhead of Health and Wealth Tag the nations ! The Soldier Settlement Dour backed by its staff of returned men, will endeavour to do its part. HOLSTEIN CALF PRIZE Won by this district.
