Bob is now secre- tary to the CFA. and will no doubt bring an interesting message on the national farm program. Full particulars will be sent out through the Federation Survey shortly before the annual meeting, The directors were asked for a report on the voluntary member- ship canvass that is being carried on by the poultry director in each township but information seemed to be lacking. One township re- ported that to date they had 50 members. It seemed apparent in many of the townships that the family flock had disappeared to a large extent. This seems unfort- unate as in years past a flock of a couple of hundred hens provid- edy ready money to purchase a fair portion of the groceries, I wonder if this is the reason that so many farm women are taking For the FINEST BUILDING SUPPLIES at a FAIR PRICE look for this sign of quality WA Dealers in your towns J.

Farm forum programing over CKNK came up for discussion and we were reminded that this will begin Wednesday, November 4, at 1.0.30 p.m. Since the hour is late forum members are urged to lis- ten to the radio forum Monday at the usual time and then meet Wednesday at 8,30 and have the discussion before the TV broad- cast. Then over a cup of coffee they could revise their reports if the TV made it necessary, This is your program. Don't miss it, I was told by our Co-op Insur- ance adjuster that in the past week he has been called out four times to accidents where cattle had been struck by cars, "Why don't farmers keep their cattle off the roads?" was his question, For a quick answer it seems to me that farmers have been forced to extend their production to the lim- it in order to make a living and by so doing they have found that they can look after the work but they cannot keep up repairs. In too many eases farmers have been forced to live on their deprecia- tion. That is, they started off with fences, buildings and madh- inery in good condition. Income over the past few years has pro- vided a living but now fences need fixing, buildings need repairs, and machinery is wearing out. Money is not available for these things, so we have too many cattle get- ting out. A number of years ago the far- mer was fully responsible for any damage to cars or people if his cattle caused an accident. As I understand the law at present the farmer is not liable for damages unless he is proven negligent. But neither is ,the car driver liable for the damage to your cattle unless you prove the driver negligent. Remedy: Fix your fences and just to be safe get some Farm Liabili- ty Insurance.
