The topic "Can We Farm Co­ operatively'?” gave a very in­ teresting discussion. We, as a group favour private enterprise, however small, to farming co­ operatively. Co-operatives, if in­ dulged in, in too many instances and on too large a scale kill a man’s initiative. We feel that the only thing that may be used co-operatively in our community is a sugar beet harvester, a for­ age harvester or a corn picker. Next week the meeting will be held at the home of Mr. aiid Mrs. Wellington Haist. We .would be very .pleased to see everyone present. R, 3, Clinton; B. 0. Straughan, R.R, 4, Goderich. Soybeans — H.
