seem determined to turn the urban dweller against the farmer un fortunately they do not see or they do not wish to see how im portant to the whole population is the legitimate farmer we are rightly concerned about the export of our depleting resources such as oil gas wood and water but when the farmer exports grain meat cheese fruit vegetables or other farm products he is enriching canada by the sale abroad of renewable resources renewable of course if we keep him in a position where he can combine his toil with the soil with some hope of a profit in good years and at least a break even in others the farmer is the only real producer of continuing wealth in canada a farmer must pay his taxes in bad years as well as good the imposition of unrealistic taxes on legitimate farms tends to drive him out of our area and though the land speculators and subdividers may look on this state of affairs with the glint of great profit in their eyes the rest of us suffer thereby the farmer not only enriches canada but his own area as well they are the section of people who per capita buy the most motor vehicles electricity electric motors machinery parts fencing gasoline insurance etc they

and it is to be hoped that in their appeal for urban votes the politicians municipal provincial or federal do not turn the town dweller against his greatest benefactor the legitimate farmer he must
