Challenge Canadian Food Producer The Not yet is there among our producers an adequate realization of the opportunities for increased production which present conditions in the British markets afford. If you are a producer or dealer in foods' uds, you can assist your own profit in gaining a 1 arger share of this market.

Almost every community in this country stands to benefit. The result can be attained by: 1. Producing more of the kind of products the British consumer wants. 2. Keeping up a constant supply.

3. Maintaining quality standards. Through its Commercial Intelligence Service, this Department will render valuable assistance to any exporter. Our Trade Commissioners Offices in Britain are especially well-equipped and strategically placed to handle any export problem on behalf of Canadian exporters. Enquiries regarding British Trade receive prompt attention.

Write to the Commercial Intelligence Service, Ottawa. GREAT BRITAIN wants more Canadian foodstuffs. The plain fact is that the increase in trade in some of our food exports to the old country is no tecping pace with the growth of demand. Britains markets are wide open to Canada. Because of the exhibitions of Canadian products, the activity of our Trade Commissioners, and the effects of our advertising, the British consumer is more familiar with these products than ever before, and consequently more inclined to buy.

Good will in Great Britain towards Canadian products never has been at a higher point than now. All the facilities of transportation for all classes of products from Canada to Great Britain have been provided. Shall we Canadians overlook or neglect the opportunities for increased export trade which are thus laid before us? Just because domestic markets are good, shall we as producers be so short sighted as to fail to satisfy so large a market which is more favourably inclined towards our products than ever before?
