Abstract: 
(A) Of Spirits and Dragons, John VanDyk, 24 pages, $1.00.
VanDyk sketches the history of the western world to offer the reader a coherent portrayal of how capitalism and socialism have risen to be our political choices. Contending that these have grown to become monstrous dragons he pleads for a third option.

(B) The Farmer and a Third Option, James Visser, 30 pages, $1.00.
Contending that Canadian economic policy is forcing farmers into a survival of the fittest straight-jacket, the author pleads for a diversified culture and an agriculture policy which is free from domination of economic expansion in other sectors, and which does not cater to a consumer society.

(C) The Limited of Ownership, Peter J. Boodt, 10 pages, 75 cents.
Boodt leads the reader to an introspective examination of our personal attitudes toward our possessions. He also encourages changes in public policy for the management of resources.

(D) Submission to Federal Government of Canada in reaction to Bill C42, the proposal Competition Act, Christian Farmer's Federation of Western Canada, 14 pages, 10 cents.
This brief criticizes the philosophy behind the Competition Act, which is that efficiency and competition ensure the integrity of the market place.

(E) Submission by the Christian Farmers Federation of Western Canada to the Provincial Government of Alberta on the issue of Land Use, 16 pages, 10 cents.
This brief deals with some of the fundamental issues underlying the land use problem. The translation of economic growth into industrialization is cited as one of the chief causes of the land use problem.
