Monday night at the home of Mr.,
and Mrs. Howard Wilkinson with
an attendance of 82. After listen-
ing to the broadcast, the groups
discussed the topic, "The Farmer
and the Government",
In answer to the question of how
11w group thought farmers may be-
come more efficient in solving
their agricultural problems, it was
felt that farmers should work to-
gether and take notice of what is
being dope in other places, Tt, was
agreed that runners should take a
more active part in farm organiza-
tions and fully understand their
purpose.
The second Item to be discussed
was whether the Forum felt that
the ,pressure group technique to-
wards the government. in dealing
with agrioultural problems is as ef-
fective as a planned approach to
local ,members of parliament. It
was felt that the approach through
the varioths .farm organizations was
the better method.
At the close of Lhe discussion
period euchre was played with the
high score going' to Alba Yelli and
