Our census returns arc obtained at great cost. They are in- tended to convey useful information on which intelligent, national develop' ment policies can be built It is high time we studied them. It is shown, for instance, that our native-born population contribute* sev«n per cent of "farm owners and operators." The British bom immigrant 6.8 per cent., and the foreign bom population 16.2 per cent. Out of 1.065,454 immi- grants from British countries 34.70 were rural residents and 65.30 urban. Of the 890,282 foreign immigrants 54.22 were rural residents and 45.68 per cent, urban. It behooves Canada jealously to pre- serve her eonnd, tree British institu- tions and to strain every nerve to foster a strong British sentiment, . which apparently can best be done by encouraging a large influx of peopk from the United Kingdom and Ireland. As, however, we cannot, and should not, move agricultural people from there in volume, we must strive to open the way for urban Britishers^ bj promoting in Canada a strong agij. cultural development, and also assidu- ously foster the work and scope of the admirable agn"icultural training schools in Great Britain for overseas settlers. But if we want agricultural settlers, anxious to create permanent, rural homes and with a genuine love for the soil, while we can try our luck in Northern Europe, we must neces- sarily place our main dependence I upon the east and central European Not many people realize that Can- ' P^^sant.

As a matter of fact nearly 28,000 acres are under cultivation for this product in Eastern Canada, with an annual production of upwards of 30 million pounds valued at seven million dollars. Of this acreage over 18,000 acres are in the southern peninsula of Ontario and nearly 10,000 acres in Quebec, largely the Montcal'^ district. A Bmali ex- perimental acreage is also reported from British Columbia. According' to a statement by the Dept. of the Interior at Ottawa over be moved through a policy of state- aided colonization. These are tha bald facts of the case. The indications are that the indis< criminate, happy-go-lucky immigra- tion efforts of the past will not ans- wer the purpose of the future. Tha situation clearly demands comprehen- sive policies and intelligent adminis- tration on the part of Canada's immi- gration Services. The present arbi- trary, bureaucratic machine must ba completely overhauled and defective^ parts replaced.
