An interest ing discussion was held on tlie question of farm labour. Seme wondered where first class farm help could be ob tained. The government was blamed for boosting labour wages of past years so high that farm ers could not compete and the high wages for other labour en ticed all good labour from the farm. But if, and when, first class’ labour could be obtained, it was agreed that good wages, good machinery and efficient management, modern homes on the farm and a good community were all essential to helpers content and A signed contract employer and employ thought needful. Then the Forum wondered what hundred-acre farm could provide all this, and that per haps it would be better to settle down without help to accomplish what was possible and. let the rest go. But would this be bene ficial to the agricultural indust ry dr to the country as a whole? As to farm labour unions it was suggested a union of farm ers plus labourers be organized and farm prices boosted one-third to meet the necessary expense. Games were played and lunch served. Next meeting will be held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Wellington Haist and will takes the form of a Christmas social, with the-recreation com mittee in charge.
