Why keep the A ustralio.n Industries yoiny, to the Ruination of our own, when Money is required for l!«r Loans, Shrink/'ny Revenue and Employment ? WE think the timo has arrived to resuscitate Dominion wheat growing, ere it is too late, by putting our protective duties on a parity with the Australian ones, which have made Australia ono of the granaries of the world at reasonable prices, as under normal conditions it has always had a surplus. Under nouunl 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 tiro 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 would not this serious and short-sighted innovation affect land values and all kinds of labour, augmented with the shipping ports Lyttelton, Timaru and Oarnatu in a stato 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 abundance in the Dominion ? —as about half the valuo in all instances is labour and railages, and with our lads returning employment must be found for them, otherwise they will go elsewhere, and we will become obsoloto though in our infancy.
