The country itself was entirely immune from the devastation of war and we have not suffered anything like the privations of European countries. We have a magnificent country with unlimited natural re- sources in field, forest, mine and fisheries. There are approximately 270,000,000 acres of arable lands in the three Western Provinces, of which only 32,000,000 acres, or 12%, are under cultivation at the present time. We must do more than produce wheat and agricultural products. We should develop into a great manufacturing country and if we have not already attained that status, there is greaf promise of it. prev     next
