The falling prices are a grave problem for farmers as the costs are down according ly. A drop of 8.2 per cent from 1951 was ■shown for 1952. It is expected that 1953 will show a further drop of 12 per cent from 1952. Twenty-ejght Fairfield Farih Forum members discussed this question on Monday night at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Reg. Hodg son. It was suggested that farm ers use less , commerical feeds and more of their own grains even thou g h the production would not be as great. If at all possible it is wise to keep out of debt incurred through loans, buying new machinery or for building. Purchasing co-op to serve as a retail store for farm supplies and other items is a good thing if co- tur- thls Down to Earth By D, I, HOOPER Figuring Backwards managed properly, Market operative to handle sale of nips would be beneficial in area.

At* the joint meeting followed, a report of the Farmers’ convention in Toronto was given by Mr. Baker. Skits and games, directed by Harry Hern, concluded the program. Knowing nothing about chic kens it is necessary for this col umn to visit with poultrymen throughout the district. With the “cost squeeze” this year more and 'more poultry raisers are going to be tempted to try and raise a few more extra birds than usual Our friend's advice to this is “figure backwards”. How many pullets do you want to put in the laying pens? What is the square feet of the pens? Divide this number by three if you keep Leghorns, four for heavy breeds. That result is.how many pullets you want, Sounds like wasting space? Re search and practical experimenta tion over the years has proven that poultrymen who give their birds square feet make twice as much money per hen as those who only allow less than 2% square feet. Now take a look at your brood- er house. How many square feet? Multi ply that by two. That gives the number of chicks you brood allowing half a square per chick. But don’t stop there. Have ....... got enough feeders to give every chick an inch of space at the chick feeders up to eight weeks, and two inches of space after eight weeks? Either floor space or feeder space may hold down the num ber of chicks you ought to start but that doesn’t mean you aren't going to have enough. The more room you give chicks the more you will out of the ones you start. So if you’re tempted to crowd the brooder house laying pens try figuring back wards. You may wind up order ing fewer chicks to raise a few 1 you can foot you your raise over- and z coming financ- which Junior This Week In Winchelsea By MRS. F. HORNE Personal Items Mrs. E.
