Learners debate rural living Fairfield Rural Learners met at the home of Mr, and Mrs. George Hepburn Monday night with 17 members present. The radio broadcast presented an interesting debate on the ad- vantages and disadvantages of urban and rural living, The sub- ject for discussion in the local meeting was "divided agricul- ture' The questions asked were: Is it possible to speak of allotted agriculture in Canada and would a united agriculture be desirable? Consensus was that small and large farmers haven't the same needs; Eastern farmers have dif- ferent needs to those of the west; specialized and general producers make approach to farm issues in a different way; some farmers want militant action to solve their income problems and Others believe in quiet negotia- tion so although farmers have much in common it seems dif- ficult to act in unison; Canada is so large, the climate and agri- cultural conditions so varied. The members agreed United Agricul- ture is something in the far dis- tant future at least. The next meeting will be at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Powe. George Campbell of Seaforth; John Semple of Bayfield, Mr. Ire- land, Warren Z ur brig gef Clife ford, Simon liallaban of Bel- grave and Frank Hill of RR I Varna, The 16 township directors were re-elected with one exception. Lionel Wilder replaces Ross Love as Hay Township director, Howard fluctworth of Forest, vice-president of the Ontar io Hog Producers' Association, was guest speaker. He said the Ont- ario hog producers must admit that the present price they are receiving for their produce is high, He added it is not the re- sult of controlled pork produc- tion, but of a decrease in the number of producers. He felt the farmers in On- tario are ready for planned pro- duction to meet the growing de- mand. In 1965 there were 165,000 fewer pigs produced in Ontario than in in 1964, but there was a $14,000,000 increase in returns, he said, "While our prices are high now, I'm inclined to be a bit of a worry - wart. I know there will be trouble ahead unless we make some arrangements." He said that, had a price rise to 32e a pound been implemented a year or so ago as suggested by the Ontario Farmers' Union, more farmers would have con- tinued producing pork. Canadian production dropped 2.8 per cent this year and the price has risen to 44e a pound. "Thirty-two cents a pound is a price the producers should be receiving on a continuous basis, and it Is a price the consumer can afford to pay," he said. The meeting passed a resol- ution to hold a barrow show in this area in 1966, INTEREST RATES — 7V2-73/4% PAYMENT PLANS — UP TO 20 YEARS AMQUNT — UP TO 2/3 OF VALUE Country correspondent Winner of Ontario Hydro's award to the Champion Weekly Newspaper Country Correspondent is Mrs. Percy MacMullen, of the Stirling News-Argus.

The Liquid Applicator that was imported from Michigan was on display in the Hall and created great interest among growers. The Highlight of the Meeting was the Panel Discussion on Liquid Fertilizer made up of four prominent Michigan farmers who are using Liquid Fertilizer 100% and applying it with the same type of applicator that Cann's Mill have imported. They sup- plied movies to show the use of these versatile machines at work on their own farms -- broad- casting, planting, side-dressing and weed-spraying. Each used in the neighbourhood of about 150 tons of Liquid Fertilizer per year and all agreed they would never go back to dry fert- ilizer if Liquid was available. Cann's Mill believe this ap- plicator is the answer to farmers in this area wanting to use Liq- uid Fertilizer. how for the first time, farmers owning Dry Fert- ilizer Planters can plant Liquid Fertilizer in the one operation.

The request will be forwarded together with an official brief passed unanimously by Huron County Council protesting the suspension of six-day service between Stratford and Goderich which was announced last year. The municipalities propose to boycott CNR freight in the area unless the plans for ending the service are rejected. The re- solution will be sent to area Chamber of Commerce and busi- nessmens' association which will pass the boycott ultimatum on to the Board of Transport Com- missioners. The municipalities are re- questing a daily early morning train allowing passengers to ar- rive and return from Toronto the same day. The CNR contends the passenger service in the area has been a money-losing pro- position and there has been a decreasing population with no promise of growth.
