Excerpt from The Trader and Canadian Jeweller, 1890, Vol. 11 Every jeweler who has been connected with the business for over twenty years knows that the same watch that in 1869 cost the farmer 50 bushels of wheat, can now be bought by him for 35 bushels, and the clock that he then had to give 10 bushels of wheat for, he can now, low as he thinks the price is, purchase with the proceeds of eight or nine bushels.

Excerpt from The Trader and Canadian Jeweler, Vol. 21: A Journal Devoted to the Interests of the Jewelry and Kindred Trades; January, 1900 Canadians have a vital interest in the conflict, for over a thousand of our bravest sons are fighting side.by side with the best blood of Great Britain and the other colonies in the defence of the flag in far off South Africa. Our hearts and our prayers are with our boys in this campaign, and while it IS almost too much to expect that they will all escape unscathed, we ask for them either a safe return or glorious death with their face to the foe. God bless our brave soldier boys, and if it be His will bring them all safely back to their loved ones and friends. We are glad to hear such good accounts of trade from all parts of the country. Money has been more plentiful than for some years back, and the general report is a large increase in trade over last year, good and all as that was. We trust that all our readers will have been able to enjoy their Christmas turkey on account of the knowledge that their balance sheet will. Make a more than usually good showing.

We often picture life on the Canadian home front as a time of austerity, as a time when women went to work and men went to war. Graham Broad explodes this myth of home front sacrifice by bringing to light the contradictions of consumer society in wartime. Governments pressured Depression-weary citizens to save for the sake of the nation, but Canadians had money in their pockets, and advertisers tempted them with fresh groceries, glamorous movies, and new cars and appliances. Broad reveals that our "greatest generation" was not impervious to temptation but rather embarked on one of the biggest spending booms in our nation's history.
