Every Available Tillable Acre Must Contribute; Every Available Farmer and Farm Mand Must Assist Western Canada has an enormous acreage to be seeded, but man power is short, and an appeal to the United States allies is for more men for seed- ing operation. Canada’s Wheat Production Last Year was 226,000,000 Bushels; the Demand From Canada Alone for 1918 is 400,000,000 Bushels To secure this she must have assistance. She has the land but needs the men. The Government of the United States wants every man who can effectively help, to do farm work this year. It wants the land in the United States developed first of course; but it also wants to help Canada. When- ever we find a man we can spare to Canada’s fields after ours are supplied, we want to direct him there.
