IDEAS FROM THE
FAIRS CONVENTION
The Following Letter Was Written
by H. L. Sherbondy, Sec’y. of Turn
berry Agricultural Society.’
It will be apparent to many of you
who have been associated with agri
culture and agricultural societies, dur
ing the past, that the present is a
’ very critical time both for agriculture
and rural organizations. We have
been going through a period of tre-
‘ mendous social and economic disturb
ances, not only or particularly in Can
ada, but throughout the world. As a
result, our farm programme is being
forced to change very rapidly and ex
tensively to meet new conditions, and
new problems, so jf our rural organ
izations are not to fail, they too will
have to revise their programmes to
conform with the present conditions.
Of all the rural organizations, none

arc passing through as.critical a Stage
as the Agricultural Society, It is a
most critical time for it because nev
er in the past, -has any organization
had such a golden opportunity to
make agricultural history, and never
in the present century, at least, has
agriculture been in such great need
of leadership as the Agricultural ‘So
ciety is so well placed and so well/
equipped to give. And, is there any
other society in the Dominion, to
day, that is better able to stimulate
cordial relations between country and
town, between agriculturists and ur
ban dwellers? Is there any society
that is to a greater, extent stimulating
the farmer by healthy competition to
do better than has been his best? No.
So, if the Agricultural Society can
^quickly and efficiently adagt its pro
gramme tq the. needs of the day -for
agriculture, for the farmer, and for
the community, the society will be a
serviceable organization worthy of its
name, and a 'worthwhile future.
On the other hand, if the ’Society
feels that it can roll along on a pro
gramme that has been little changed
i. during the past, it is due to pass out
i.of thq picture within a short time.
I Wc should recognize the good work
that has been done, and'is being done
by'the society in spite; of many handi
caps, and adverse conditions. These
have been overcome by men who have
given their time and best thought to
promote the interests, of the society
and the community without remuner
ation, and sometimes, without full
hearted thanks. r i
In fairness to these men, it must be
admitted that we of today, do not fill
anything like as important a place or
offer the same valuable type of lead
ership as was done by them, in. try
ing out new varieties of field, garden
and orchard crops; in assisting in se
curing improyed strains of stock, and
in many other ways giving most
timely leadership. No doubt the need
for many of their activities no longer
exist, but though, the problem chang
es from year to year, the opportunity
for a wide-awake Society always re
mains, and a survey of current Agri
cultural Society Programmes brings
forth the following for general ob
servation.
1. The Agricultural Society at
present represents but a small per
centage of the rural population and
meet comparatively few of .our rural
problems in an .effective .manner.
2. The programme of the Society
has been chiefly limited to the hold
ing’ of a Fair once a year.
3. The membership and influence
of the Society is, in the main, limit
ed to the Board of Directors and a
comparatively small number of ex
hibitor-members. Few npn-exhibitor
members belong to the Society.
4. The programme and prize list
should center activities on major pro
ducts and major problems, and be re
vised periodically.
5. The educational possibilities

with respect- to a Junior programme
should be one of our major projects.
6. A- membership composed of at
least 75% of the farmers'of the area
covered.
7. A lofig-term programme based
on ‘a thorough study of the type of
agriculture of the district and aimed
definitely at. solving rural economic
problems.
8. A balanced yearly programme]'
providing for some worthwhile activ
ity being conducted by the Society,
and in which the Fairs is only a part
and not necessarily the most import
ant part of the year’s-.activities.
9. The setting up of a strong Jun
ior Department in the Society.
10. Restoration, to some extent at
least, of the idea of the Fair as a
place of sale. In this respect, market
.classes such as beef cattle, market
Jambs and bacon hogs might be
stressed more to interest the average
farmer, and in the breed classes, much
more emphasis could be placed on
those classes for which there is the
most demand.
12. The setting up within the Soc
iety of strong and active Committees
each dealing with some important
phase of agricult-ure or rural develop
ment such as:
a—Field Crop Committee
b—Swine
c—Sheep
d—Cattle
e—Farm
Buildings Committee.
At first this programme of the Ag
ricultural Society of the future may
seem too big, too elaborate to adopt.
Actually, if worked out step by step,
keeping in mind the major* objectives,
broadening the programme as oppor-
tnuities arise, setting up the special
committees as local interest and lead
ership grows to meet the occasion,
the programme as outlined is quite
within the reach of the society in the
course of a few years.
By way both of acknowledgement
and as proof of the soundness of the
suggestions put forward, it is well to
state that many of the ideas herein
contained are being used in societies
here and there throughout the prov
ince with marked success.
The fact that this is a time of soc
ial and economic upheaval; that nev
er before in the history of the Agri
cultural Society has opportunity been
offered to fill so great a place or
meet so great a need; and that never
before has there been so great a pro
mise of encouragement and co-oper
ation on all sides as is now being ex
tended to the agricultural societies.
Now is the time for inspired leader- ;
ship and the question is “Will our
society accept the challenge?”

needs them. Shun coughers and

them, and then take the precautions
that arc necessary in dealing with
