In shaping our policy as above, we have certainly overlooked one very important point. Farmers as a rule don’t sell to farmers, but to town and city folk. So when we try to increase farm population by methods that Operate to decrease town and city pOpulation, we are actually making things worse for the very people we are trying to benefit. We are curtailing a domestic market that our farmers can control, and we are increasing their de- pendence upon an export market over which they have no control! An Alternative Plan that Promises Better Success. Let us now go back to the beginning again, and start from the alternative assumption that it’s primarily town and city pOpulation we want to attract. So, obviously there is something wrongâ€" somewhereLâ€"in the plan we have been following,â€"either in the assumption that it is farmers we most want, or in our method of attracting them. Perhaps it’s a combin- ation of the two. And complaints being loud and numerous that farming in Canada was not as pro- fitable as it should be, we have tried to convert an unattractive situation into an attractive one by lowering the tariff on manufactured goods, in the hope of thereby lowering farm production costs, and so increasing the farmer’s net. Has that plan gotten us anywhere ? In 1924, despite tariff reductions made ostensibly to benefit agriculture, there were actually fewer farm immigrants than in 1923 ! And when, against the total immi- gration for 1923 and 1924, we offset the total emigration from our towns and cities. we find that the country has suffered a net loss ! Valuable Lessons to be Learned from Past Failures. Heretofore we have always taken it for grantedâ€"without much careful thought, perhapsâ€"that it was farmer imr'nigrants we most wanted,â€"people who would settle on our vacant land in the West, and produce more from the soil.

Even if the latter were mere theory, that would be no valid reason for rejecting it in favor of a policy we have tried, and found to be barren of results. But we know that it is far beyond the theory stage. The United States ofiers a practical demonstration of its success! By the plan of higher tarifls, to benefit all classes of pOpulation, the United States has managed to attract the biggest and longest sustained immigration movement the world has ever known! Why not now try the alternative plan of higher tarifls, as a means of attracting urban immigration, when it seems per- fectly clear that it must bring farmer immigration in its train? We have tried the plan of lower tariffs, as a means of attracting farmer immigra- tion, and we see that it has signally failed, and we know the reasons why it has failed. too!” Of course we do! But with town and city population increasing, can farm population do other than increase in pro- portion? With more customers for farm produce, _.nd with a higher purchasing power per customer due to higher wages, isn ’t it inevitable that a domestic supply will be forthcoming to meet a domestic demand, particularly if we protect farm products in the same way that we propose to protect manufactured products? is by switching from a policy of lower duties to one of higher duties. The one thing above all others that the immigrant wants is the assurance of a steady job at good wages. Give him that, and he will thousands! And in a policy of higher tarifis he will have his guarantee that “ch,” you say, “but what about our farm papulation? We want it to increase A Precedent That Show: What Can Be Done!
