It was also incumbent upon us to search for further potential contribuâ€" tory sources of supply in connection with the raw material, and, simultanâ€" eously, to foster the possible yield from British possessions associated with this industry. in this latter direction much has been done. 1 The sugar supplied to the Army is white granulated, and despito the (m-; ficulties of the problem there has | never been the slightest dificulty in ‘ satisfying the War Office requireâ€"‘ ments.

It is possible to bring home more _ vividly the military require ments in this connection when one reâ€" calls that, according to the statement made in the House of Commons by the Prime Minister or December 14, Great Britain has 5,000,000 men under arms.

"Well, my friend," I said, "I will not be pesâ€" simistic, but I am going to tell the truth." Canada, as I have stated, is not a country of a great variety of: natural resources. She has just four,! namely, agriculture, lumber, mining., and fishing; and a fifth might be addâ€"| ~ ally made that Canada is a country " abounding in a variety of natural reâ€" ‘| sources which are of enormous value ‘/ and inexhaustible. In my opinion this : |attitude has been more or less mis-i , leading and hurtful to Canada, giving ‘ {her people an exaggerated idea as to |her possibilities. Not only has c-m-] _ ada the disabilities due to her cliâ€"/ matic condition and her geographical | conformation, but she is not a country possessed of numerous natural reâ€" | sources.
