Ftzf 22% T A Word to Farmers Agricultural produce of Canada, while, measuring less than two years ago, is worth more in money than in any previous season in the history of the country. Britain, France and Italy are in great need of your supplies. Now you must remember that Can- ada has always been’ an exporter of these goods, but owing to submarine menace at present, the high- cost and scarcity of shipping facilities, which affects the transfer of gold as well, how could you sell your produce in foreign markets if the government, through the banks, did not supply the money to pay you. Farmers are in- terested as much and a great deal more than anyone in the community Ary the success of the Viétory- Loan. It is through the subscription to this loan that you get your money tor your surplus products. Every farmer in this country is interested in the domes- tic loans tioated in Canada. Then, surely, it is up to them to invest all their surplus funds in this loan. Youth Should Subscribe If it‘had not been for War loans, do you think you could have obtained situations in factories working on munitions and many other things at better pay than had ever been known in Canada? The aswer is No. Most of the boys and girls of 15 years and over should be able to buy a bond of tGO-and over. Five dollars starts you and in five months you would have a $50 -dirtiticate of the Dominion of Canada, the safest investment in the world. The Safety of the Loan According to the latest statement of the government, October lst, the net debt of Canada was $908,000,000. It looks large, but it is not as great as many people imagine after three years of war. Why, these figures are $100,- 000,000 less than the value of the pro- ducts of the farm alone in Canada for this one year. Grain, hay, dairy pro- ducts, etc., are valued this year at Fl,- 000,000,000 (one billion). In 1915 the value of our manufactured products amounted to $1,650,000,000 (one bil- lion six hundred and fifty million). This year, owing to increased muni- tions, will make the total of manu- factures much over $2,000,000,000. The total products this year will be $3,000,000,000. But we are not count- ing the products of the mines, the fisheries, or the timber, which will be close to $100,000,000. We will make the fair allowance of 75 per cent. pt our products for home consumption, clothing, sustenance, housing, etc., of our people. That means products to the value of $2,250,000,000 out of $3,- ()00,0()0,000, our total value of pro- "ducts,” excluding the mines, timber, fisheries, etc. There remains a, sur- plus then of $750,000,000 for Canada tor, one year only, and the Dominion has less than 58,000,000 people. The national wealth of this small nation is between' thirty and forty billions of dollars, Bonds in denominations of $1,000 and multiples of that figure had been . the custom. These Certificates had been sold chiefly in London. They were not available except to the few. The late Conservative Government, under the financial management ot Sir Thomas White, decided to issue bonds as low as $100,~and now down to $50, which are within the reach of the people. They can be bought and paid for even by our boys and girls who are working, as the money can be paid in instalments over a per- iod of five months. Why They Should Be Bought . "We have been educated to give of our substance to the Patriotic and Red Cross funds. We know how es- sential and worthy of patronage these objects are. But while you have given your money so freely to/such causes, you are now asked to make an invest- ment in the Victory Loan of Canada. You give away nothing, but at the end of six months you receive 2% per cent, on the amount of your sub- seriptior1, and in the following six months you get 2% per cent. more,‘ or 5% per cent. tor the year. You still have your certificate from the Dominion of Canada for the amount you subscribe. If the war, say, was over in a year, this certificate would be worth more than its face value. In any case, if your bond matures in five, ten or twenty years. there is but little doubt that you will get a higher price. tor your bond than you have paid.' There is no charity in these war loans. They are investments which, benefit you financially, help your country, and give the people empioy- merit, The money is borrowed at home and interest is payable at home. I An Open Letter The education in connection with the fourth Canadian Loan-or Vic- tory Loan-will be of the greatest benefit to our people. Before, two years ago, orin the summer of 1915, our people had never been taught or even approached as to the advantages of raising money in Canada for any government or big undertaking affect- ing the community at large. Yet we must acknowledge that owing to the rapid development of the resources of our country, Its financial status has been such that large loans from our own people could have been obtained within the past decade or two. The necessities for capital caused by the War have induced an entire change in Canadian finances, which, owing to its advantages is ot incalculable benefit to us during the war, and will be of in- estimable value to the country after the war.

Ella, 416 Main St. N., “Heston. 1t One has considerable food for re- flection when looking into the con- dition of society in the present age. There was a. time years ago when a woman who became the mother of a large family was looked up to with respect. If any bad luck befell the head of the household, the wage earner, every one of the members of the community took it on himself to see that the children wanted for ttoth- ing and they were properly raised. But times have changed; the mother of a large family is in the main look- ed down on instead of up to. There is but one way for a working man to protect his family in the true sense and'that is by insurance on his life. Neglect to make this provision is, in my opinion, criminal, as it makes al- most a beggar of his wife. If she is tied down with a large tamily"it is an utter impossibility tor her to get out and earn the living. It then tol- lows naturally that she must appeal to the public for assistance. We have an instance in our midst. The father died in the hospital ten months ago. leaving a wife and seven children. He had taken out a small life policy about three months previous to his death. At the time of his death the benefit of the policy was $93.00 ant it took it to bury him. This left the widow destitute. The eldest daughter was 14 years of age. She went to work on munitions, but being still of tender age she could hardly work an amine week. The _mother tyen made [ application for aid. The response was not scary/hearty. On one occasion she was given the munificent sum of $8 to support her for a month, at the rate ot $2.00 per Weelc It the render knows anythingat all about present day , alues, you’ll know what a happy out look she had. So wita all the trouble incident to the raising of al family it is beyond our ken as to how she has made ends meet by quite a bit. Oneof the little lads has had concussion of the brain from a fall. Another has had seven stitches put in his back, where he cut it toy falling on' a piece of glass. There is a hard, winter ahead and charity begins at home. The woman has tour boarders now who are paying her $6 per week, but with butter at 520 per lb. and other provisions in proportion, it is in- deed an ailing' man who cannot con- sume $6 worth of [provisions in a week -- A philanthropic society of Toronto is going to stage a benefit performance at Kodak Hall December 7 for the family. If any of our read- ers would feel like lending a helping hand td this woman, they can receive further particulars from this office or G. S. Hodgson, 1050 Weston fld.
