CO-OPERATIVE FARMING IN MAN POWEIt NECESSAItY
TO WIN THE BATTLE FOll LIBERTY
The Food Controllers of the United States and Canada are asking for
greater food production. Scarcely 100,000,000 bushels of wheat arc avail
able to be sent to the allies overseas before the crop harvest. Upon the
etTorts of the United States and Canada rests the burden of supply.
Every Avallablo Tillable Acre Must Contribute; Every Available
Farmer and Farm Hand 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.
Apply to our Employment Service, and we will tell you where you can
beit serve the combined interests.
Western Canada's help will be required not later than April 5th. Wage
to competent help, 50.00 a month and up, board and lodging.
Those who respond to this appeal will eet a warm welcome, good wages,
pood board and find comfortable homes. They will get a rate of one cent
a mile from Canadian boundary points to destination and return.

With the' coming of spring, when

1 BIG WORK
III IDE WAR
The War Lord Salutes the Field
Marshall.
Such Is tho striking tltlo to n well-
timed enrtoon In nn agricultural pa
per, showing tho War Lord In snluto
to tho farmer. Tho meaning of It Is
that without the nsslstnnco thnt tho
farmer renders In tho matter of pro
viding food for tho army tho fighting
ability of thnt body would bo propor
tionally decreased, Whllo tho army
Is fighting, tho farmer Is busy. The
promptness with which ho sprang
Into the breach was a patriotism equal
to that of tho man who enlisted nnu
tho farmer's record In this particular
was worthy of tho high record that
has becomo Ills. All over tho United
States tho appeal Is being met by more
production. Fields nro enlarged, Inten
sive ngrlculturo has taken tho place
of slipshod methods, moro cnttlo nro
being fattened, moro hogs grown, veal
nnd lamb have becomo senrco com
modities. This is all In keeping with
tho food-controller's demands, and
with tho hcnrtlness that 1b now preva
lent, It would seem as If the require
ments of tho boys nt tho front and tho
allies In Europo would bo fully met.
Not only nro tho tilled acres of tho
JJnltcd States being brought Into
requisition, but tho wild rusturo lauds
ro doing tribute with their cattle and
sheep. Working In conjunction with
tho United States, Western Canada Is
nlso doing Its share nnd n pretty large
snaro It Is, too. By an arrangement
with the United Stntes Government It
will now bo posslblo through its env
ployment burenu to secure for tho
Western Canndn fields such help as
can bo spared. It Is thought In this
way Canada will havo Us help to seed
Its millions of ncres of wheat land
fairly well met. Tho largo number
of young men of tho farms who havo
cnllsjcd nnd gone to tho front has left
many of tho Western Canada rarms
weak In tho matter of man power,
This menns that Canada can tako nil
thnt tho United Stntes can spare. Tho
wages will bo good and tho housing
comfortnble.
In addition to this tho free home
stead lands of Western Canada offer
tho greatest Inducement to tho mnn
with limited menns who Is willing to
undergo some of tho hardships natu
rally accompanying this enterprise,
Thcro Is nlso tho lnrgo area of uncul
tivated lands thnt nro waiting tho
mnn with sufficient means to purchnso
and equip. And this Is not expen
slve. Tho lands aro cheap 'and the
terms very reasonable. Equipped with
tractor or horso power tho cultivation
cost Is slight when tho return Is con
sldercd. Yields of wheat varying from
20 to 40 bushels per ncro may bo ro
lled upou, and with n set price of over
$2.00 per bushel, It Is nn easy matter
to arrlvo at the cost, rroductlon, In
cluding Interest on land, has been esti
mated at figures not exceeding ten
dollnrs anncre. With a twenty bushel
yield, at n two dollar price forty dol
lars. Ten from forty nnd you have
tho profits many formers made In
Western Canada tho past year.
Tho Dominion nnd Provincial Gov
ernments aro working conjointly In nn

Among the Important steps that huve
been taken to bring thts nbout 13 the
recent order by which It Is mndo pos
elble to tako Into Cnnnda tractors that
cost fourteen hundred dollars and less
In tho country of production. This
will glvo those residing in the United
Stntes, owning lands In Canndn, the
opportunity to place them under cul
tlvatlon nt much less cost thnn In tho
past. Another Inducement Is the prlvl
lego of taking sheep and cnttlo In
free of duty. Automobiles form a
necessary part of the outfit of a good
many farmers thnt would llko to move
to Cannda. Theso are now accorded
free duty. Provision Is nlso mndo that

There is no foundation for the alleged
violations of law attributed to our Com
pany by agents of the Federal Trade
Commission and I want to say emphatic
ally that Swift & Company is not a party to
any conspiracy to defraud the Govern
ment. Nor has Swift & Company been
guilty of improperly storing foods or of
making false entries or reports.
Conferences of packers, where prices
have been discussed, have been held at
the urgent request and in the presence
of representatives of either the Food
Administration or the Council of National
Defense. And yet the packers have been
accused of committing a felony by acting
in collusion on Government bids I
We have done our best, with other
packers, large and small, to comply with
the directions of the United States Food
Administration in all particulars, including
the furnishing of food supplies for the U. S.
Army and Navy and the Allies, now be
ing handled through the Food Adminis
tration. We will continue to do our utmost.un-
der Government direction, to increase our
production and assist the Food Adminis
tration. We consider that the opportunity
to co-operate whole-heartedly and to our
fullest powers with this branch of the
Government is our plain and most press
ing duty.
The Trade Commission Attorney has,
by false inference and misplaced empha
sis, given to disconnected portions of the
correspondence taken from our private
files and read into the Record, a false and
sinister meaning with the plain purpose
of creating antagonistic public opinion.
The services of the packers of the
United States are most urgently needed,
and I regret exceedingly that we should at
this time have to spend our efforts in
defending ourselves against unfounded,
unproved, and unfair assertions such as
are being daily made public.
