S2 BOARD OF AGRICULTURE. [Sept., 



ganization for war, in a democracy not prepared, has given 

 remarkable results so far. We have every reason for con- 

 fidence in the forces that now represent us in government. 

 Already we have taken action which we should scarcely have 

 considered two or three years ago. I expect that the farm- 

 ing people .will be sympathetic with these movements and 

 with their necessities, and that they will co-operate to the 

 full in the great task before us.
