for a confident father
Ontario farmers have had a
fairly substantial experience al-
ready with contract farming, to
judge from reports from Farm
Forums across the province, on
the second Forum broadcast of
the series on vertical integration
in the farming industry. While
approximately half of the groups
reporting had had no direct ex-
perience, they still had knowledge
of the results and •effect of the
system as experienced' by friends
and neighbours. The other half of
the Forums reported experience
on contract farming, chiefly with
broilers, canning crops, hogs and
some grains.
When answering the. question
"How has it affected you?", there
was no hesitation on the part of
nearly all the groups in reporting
the effect to be definitely detri-
mental. Only a handful of groups
reported no effect.
All others had plenty of reas-
ons why they thought the system
was detrimental, most of which
could be summarized in the, state-
ment that contract farming had
caused over-production, causing
prices to drop, hogs and poultry
being specifically mentioned in a
substantial number of cases.
"Spoiled the market for us",
said one Forum. "Destroyed the
poultry industry," said nearly a
dozen others, Some groups emph-
asized that the system had ser-
iously affected the economic posi-
tion of the small farmer.
A similar attitude of mind was
evident among groups when an,s;•
wering the third question, "How
has it affected the man under con-
tract?" There was some acknow-
ledgement of advantage for young
men starting in farming, and as
a means of providing some capital
or credit, but in the main the an-
swers to this question also were
quite derogatory.
Shilo Farm Forum in Lambton
County had this to say: "We feel
it is going to take our independ-
ence if we contract all farm pro-
ducts; in years to come maybe
also our land that our forefathers
carved out of the woods."

. The youngster with the broom is making a clean path for the
curling stone. Maybe he doesn't realize it yet, but his father
is guiding him through life on a path as direct and as smooth.
Life insurance is a way to /met the future and a way to save.
'By insuring his son now, this father is encouraging thrift,
building an attitude of mind.
Many people who plan their life insurance programme through
The Mutual Life of Canada, take out policies
at low cost on the lives of their children: policies the children
take over when they start earning. It's a good idea. Worth discussing
