117/// keep tin 1 Australian Industries yoiny, to the. Uni nation of our own, when. Mowy in raplin'it for lldr Loans, Shrinkiny lieeenue awl Employment f WE think tho time Ims arrived to resuscitate Dominion wheat growing, ero it is too late, by putting our protective duties on a parity with tho Australian ones, which have made Australia one of the granaries of the world at reasonable prices, as under normal conditions it has always had a surplus. Under normal conditions, grain contributes about three-fifths of the Canterbury railway revenue, without mentioning its numerous adjuncts. If grain growing is killed, what would make good the railway and labour deficicnoes, as on (the raw material there are always two labour handlings, but not so on the imported manufactured articles ? Just imagine North and South Canterbury and North Otago huge sheep runs, and wotdd not this serious 'and short-sighted innovation affect land values and all kinds of labour, augmented with the shipping ports Lyttelton, Timaru and Oamain in a state of collapse ? Without bran and sharps, how would our bacon, dairy, poultry, and carrying industries exist in the event of an Australian drought ? Is it business-like to send our money to Australia for our food supply when it is subject to droughts, and for what we can grow in abundanco in the Dominion ? —as about half tho value in all instances is labour and railages, and with our lads returning employment must be found for them, otherwise they will go elsowhero, and we will becomo obsolete though in our infancy.
