Dairy cattle day
program planned
"A 5 day week for the dairy
farmer!"
Wishful thinking, you say,
but why not. Dairy farmers
need time off to attend
meetings, for holidays or just to
get a fresh look at things the
same as anyone else, Trouble is
the cows need to be milked
seven days a week and nobody
milks the cows as well as the
owner himself. Who can afford
to take time off? But, can you
afford- not to?
With a little planning you
too can take a holiday. Your
first stop - the Western Ontario
Dairy Cattle Day at Strathroy
on Wednesday, July 10th. Visit
with two dairymen who have
found the answers to their
labour problems. Verne
Towers, R,R. 4, Glencoe and
Bycraft Brothers, R.R. 2, Ilder-
ton, will tell it like it is. Visit
one of these farms in the mor-
ning and the other after lunch.
Keynote speaker is, Dr. L.
Shapley, Farm Labour
Specialist of Michigan State.
University. He will discuss the
.amount of mechanization and
"hired labour' t ha t different,sizes
of dairy farms can afford'.
