Mr, Murray expressed his pl- easure in finding such friendly patrons in Bayfield', He stated that he had clone more business than he expected on this first day.

It was operated by the Stirling Bank in part of John Tippets store (now Brissons) from Varna. The late William Beatty, Varna was manager and the late Robert Bailey, Bayfield, was clerk under him in Varna. About 1910-11 Dr. N. W. Wood's rebuilt the old Rout- ledge store front (as it is to- day in the M. Toms building) and leased it to the Stirling Bank. Here there was large of- fice space and sleeping quarters for the staff. A full time service was commenced with Robert Bailey as manager. The Stirling Bank was ab- sorbed' by the Standard' and it in •turn was taken over by the Commerce. Subsequent managers' recal- led by citizens were Dan Shear- er, B. Magee, Gordon Gillies, Earl Johns and A. Sehier, In a shrinking economy this br- anch, which had also operated at Varna, was closed in 1,933. Now the economy is expand- ing again, and' with the signs pointing to better days, Bay- fielders hope to come into 'their own again. (Mrs. I.. Merrill) Farm Forum of SS• 4 node- rich Township met Monday night at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Lobb, with 11 mem- bers present, The topic, a very vital one to the farmers, was "Ontario Milk Marketing at' he Crossroads", First question: Is an over-all milk marketing plan required? A unanimous answer--.yes, Second question; If your an- swer is yes, how would you deal with the quota problem? We would want a uniform price for a uniform product. We want to know how to regulate the number of processor's trucks on any one road; how to keep separated the different grades of milk picked up on any one route; how to distribute the surplus over the quota required by any individual processor; how to handle or store the sur- plus butter or cheese, etc„ pro- duced at peak periods, Third question: What would you propose as a solution to the surplus situation? The marketing board must be st- rong enough to handle, store, sell, bargain or dispose of sur- plus products, where and when and if any surplus can be ob- tained, to refund same to 'pro- ducers at year's end—in same manner as the Bean Board is managed. This is a very important topic to many farmers. The topic for next week continues on the subject of milk marketing, and this Forum would be pleased to hear the views and also ques- tions from any outsiders who are interested in this subject. Anyone interested is invited to- the meeting next Monday night, 8.30 p.m. at the home of Mr. and Mrs. William Lobb. There was a short recreation period and lunch was enjoyed by all present, SS 4 Community Club Has Regular Meeting (Mrs. I.
