"When the war started in 1864 there was enough money in the savings banks in Canada to show a credit, if equally divided, of $55 to each Canadian. Now, after three years of war, there is enough money in the Canadian savings banks to show a credit of $92.25 to each Canadian. Canada has only 5,000,000 population, and, notwithstanding the fact that 400,000 of her men are actually at war, the Canadian people have added $100,000,000 to their bank accounts in 1910, and over $500,000,000 more in 1916, besides subscribing over $200,000,000 to war loans, and extending credit to Great Britain to the extent of $100,000,000 more."

GREAT POSSIBILITIES OF THIS REPUBLIC
If this may be said of a country with only 5,000,000 souls, and at war, what are the possibilities of this republic with its enormous wealth and power and more than 100,000,000 people? Then, too, look at the now prosperous condition of the great working class of England as against its former unemployment, strikes and poverty. The call to arms here is not only being answered by the young man who shoulders his musket, but by the vast army composed of millions of farmers and farmers' children who will plant more intensively and extensively than American farmers ever planted before. Thousands of acres of farm land are now being planted in the United States.  and garden land that never felt the tickle of a plow or spade will be made to produce its quota of fresh food for the soldier boys and for the civilian population. "Production" is the great national motto now. More in America.
