Labour From Farm
Says Fairfield Forum
Fairfield .Farm Forum met
Monday night at the home
Mr. and Mrs, Elmer Wilson with
21 members present. 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.
