And complaints being loud and numerous that farming in Canada was not as proâ€" fitable as it should be, we have tried to ‘convert an unattractive situation into an attractive one by lowering the tariff on manufactured goods, in the hope of thereby lowering farm production costs, and so increasing the farmer‘s net. Has that plan gotten us anywhere ? In 1924, despite tariff reductions made «ostensibly to benefit agriculture, there were actually fewer farm immigrants than in 1923 ! And when, against the total immiâ€" gration for 1923 and 1924, we offset the total emigration from our towns and cities, we find that the country has suffered a net loss ! So, obviously there is something wrongâ€" somewhereâ€"in the plan we have been following,â€"either in the assumption that it is farmers we most want, or in our method of attracting them. â€" Perhaps it‘s a combinâ€" ation of the two. Fineâ€"let us do so! But to be sure we‘re on the straight and sure road to our goal, let us begin by doing some clear thinkingâ€"some hard thinkingâ€"on these twoimportant questions : Valuable Lessons to be Learned from Past Failures. s Heretofore we have always taken it for grantedâ€"without much careful thought, perhapsâ€"that it was farmer imimmigrants we most wanted, â€"people who would settle on our vacant land in the West, and produce more from the soil. Population Increases Should be Properly Balanced. In shaping our policy as above, we have certainly overlooked one very important point. Farmers as a rule don‘t sell to farmers, but to town and city folk. So when we try to increase farm population by methods that operate to decrease town and city population, we are actually making things worse for the very people we are trying to benefit. We are curtailing a domestic market that our farmers can control, and we are increasing their deâ€" pendence upon an export market over which they have no control! An Alternative Plan that Promises Better Success. Let us now go back to the beginning again, and start from the alternative assumption that it‘s primarily town and city population we want to attract. â€" "Start a great big immigration moverment into Canada, of people not only willing to â€"work but for wâ€"om profitable work can be found, and all the pressing probleims that now beset our country s f will be well on the way to solutioi.. <Whaut Sare. 1.

Obviously the way to attract that class is by switching from a policy of lower duties to one of higher duties. The one thing above all others that the immigrant wants is the assurance of a steady job at good wages. Give him that, and he will come in his thousands,â€"yes, in his tens of thousands! And in a policy of higher tariffis he will have his guarantee thar steady work at good wages will be awaitâ€" ing him. ‘"Yes," you say, "but what about our farm population? We want it to increase too!" â€" Of course we do! _ But with town and city population increasing, can farm population do other than increase in proâ€" portion? With more customers for farm produce, and with ‘a higher purchasing power per customer due to higher wages, isn‘t it inevitable that a domestic supply will be forthcoming to meet a domestic demand, particularly if we protect farm products in the same way that we propose to protect manufactured products? We have tried the plan of lower tarifis, as a means of attracting farmer immigraâ€" tion, and we see that it has signally failed, and we know the reasons why it has failed. Why not now try the alternative plan of higher tariffs, as a means of attracting urban immigration, when it seems perâ€" fectly clear that it must bring farmer immigration in its train? Even if the latter were mere theory, that would be no valid reason for rejecting it in favor of arpolicy we have tried, and found to be barren of results. But we know that it is far beyond the theory stage. The United States offers a practical demonstration of its success! By the plan of higher tariffs, to benefit all classes of population, the United States has managed to attract the biggest and longest sustained immigration movement the world has ever known! ‘~What better example does Canada want ?

In fact the present indiâ€" cations are that the growth,«dtiring the coming year, may reach $10,000, 000, thereby making the greatest upâ€" ward stride, so far in the history of production of gold from the Poreuâ€" pine Camp.
