Parr Line ForEun.
It ,was agreed, by members of
Parr Line Forum, meeting at the
home of Mr, and Mrs, Charles
Robinson, that if farmers are to
have better relations with =bah
groups they should be well-in-
formed first of all; then a public
relations delegate should be sent
from every farm organization to
meet with various urban groups.
This is forum feels that there is.
a better understanding erstandin between
the farmer and his local village
or town due to the closer contact
between both groups but the same
was not bare e for the larger cities,
where much could be done to en-
lighten and improve misunder-
standing especially in relation to
the problems of the farmer.
There is excellent co-operation
on the part of the weekly press.
Farm forum reports, Federation
of Agriculture reports and ac-
tivities have been well covered
by the Local press. The local
radio station has shared in pub,
licity and service for many farm
organizations, much pf which Is
given free.
The township of Hay collects
two-fifths of a mill for Federa-
tion purposes. Members oS Parr
Line forum think it should be
raised at least another one-fifth
