canadians spoke both french and english 77354s6 spoke english only and 213174g spoke french only discouraged by gardiners plans i see that at last jimmy gard iners chickens and pigs have come home to roost and 1 hope they come in such numbers that they crowd him forever out of the department of agriculture once upon a time i used to raise hogs on a big scale in alberta once i had twenty brood sows now i havent got one pig and as long as jimmy is the dictator of our agri cultural policy i will raise no more there is something profoundly wrong with a country that will give one man the power of an absolute monarch over any and all phases of agriculture in a country as huge and with as varied an agriculture as this i do not know of a single instance where genuine farmers have had a word to say about the policies of the depart ment of agriculture for one to try to keep abreast of the jitterbug antics of these cabinet farmers is the most discouraging experi ence i know democracy is supposed to be needed by russia by germany and by japan i hope that when those countries have all they need there will still be a little democracy left over for canada thos cammack claremont wednesday thursday
