SPECIAL ISSUE 



Urging the utilization of the Power of the Primary- 

 Producer to help to Win the War by supplying the 

 staple foodstuffs called for by the Leaders of the 

 Empire. 



The appeal to farmers and land-holders, which runs 

 through the whole of the articles, comes from England— 

 our England ; it comes from the hearts of the millions 

 who are making the supreme sacrifice ; it is made 

 articulate by the clarion voice of the British Prime 

 Minister, the Right Hon. Lloyd George, and re-echoed 

 in this outpost of Empire by our own Prime Minister's 

 stirring words, with which we are privileged to open 

 this issue.
