WESTFIELD "Co-Operation't Topic At Westfield Forum The members of the Westfield Farm Forum met on Monday evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Marvin Mc- Dowell. After listening to the radio broadcasts on farm wives as working partners, the group went into a dis- cussion on What should Co-operation between a framer and his wife in-, elude. Should it include planning the farm business, the farm expenditures, helping with the outside work, legal partnership on the farm? The groups agreed that a farmer and his wife should eo-operate on all Items mentioned. When they marry they enter into a type of mutual part- nership and we don't think it necess- ary to have any legal documents other than a will. A farm wife should if re- quired be able to help seine outside, providing she is able to reserve plenty of time to prepare nutritious and ap- petizing meals and care for her home and family. A farmer's wife should have some access to the family in- come, either by joint account or separ- ate bank account as she prefers. They agreed that definitely the farmer's wife should be acquainted with modern farming techniques, how else can she intelligently discuss farm business and planning of farm expen- ditures, etc. A farmer's wife will certainly be Interested in marketing problems, as the amount received governs expendi- tures and therefore spells success or failure for the farmer and his wife.
