PICTURESQUE COUNTRY Recent early wintr.'- experiences in (irey <' nmty are n'tractin:r the at- tention of editor-! of Toronto papers. This fmr.i -c of our own boys in the] Star: "An Osprcy farmer set out for Dun- dalk in his motor car the other day, but encountered deep snow and had to leave his car and borrow n horse and cutter. Afte- going two miles' he had to leave the cutler and borrow u buggy to reach Uundalk. On his \v-ay home he had to use buggy, cut- ter and car. It must make a horse' laugh whin P. has to turn in like hat to help a motar'ist get to town." And this from the Clobe man: ' "The wild and picturesque roads ini <;icnelg Township, drey County, have been made impassable by snow, and the municipal election has been post- poned. Hut the pcoplo of this Bcot tish settlement a'-e all philosophers, and an election a week or so hence will be considered just as satisfactory as one held on the official date.

G PEAT BRITAIN wants more Canadian foodstuffs. -f The plain fact is that the increase in trade in some of our food exports to th3 old country is not keeping pace with the growth of demand. Britain's markets are wide open to Canada. Because of the exhibitions of Canadian products, the activity of our Trade Commissioners, and the effects of our advertising, the British consumer is more familiar with these products than ever before, and consequently more inclined to buy. Good will in Great Britain towards Canadian products never has been at a higher point than now. All thc facilities of transportation for all classes of products from Canada to Great Britain have been provided. Shall we Canadians overlook or neglect the oppor- Not yet is there among our producers an adequate realization of the opportunities for increased production which present conditions in the British markets afford. If you arc a producer or dealer in foodstuffs, you can assist to your own profit in gaining a larger share of this market. Almost every community in this country stands to benefit. The result can be attained by: 1. Producing more of the kind of products the British consumer wants. 2. Keeping up a constant supply. 3. Maintaining quality standards. Through its Commercial Intelligence Service, this tunvties^for increased export trade which are thus !aid D^^ ^ [^ va^We as^a^e to a^y e^r^! Our Trade Commissioners' Offices in Britain are especially well-equipped and strategically placed to handle any export problem on behalf of Canadian exporters. Enquiries re- garding British Trade receive prompt attention. Write to the Commercial Intelligence Service, Ottawa. before us? Just because domestic markets are good, shall we as producers be so short sighted as to fail to satisfy so large a market which is more favourably inclined towards our pro- ducts than ever before?
