The group hopes to make both rural and urban people more aware of their struggles and challenges since this dwindling minority of 4 percent is responsible for the country's entire food production. Entitled "The Farmer Takes a Wife", the book is the result of a study on farm women, recently undertaken by Concerned Farm Women. A 31 -page questionnaire was sent to 600 farm women in Bruce and Grey Counties, the data of which was prepared for computer analysis during the fall of 1982. In December, five farm women were hired to analyse and disseminate the survey findings and prepare a manuscript for a book. Although the research focused on one area of On- tario, author Gisele Ireland suspects the findings will strike a response in farm women across the country. The financial crisis, and the farm women's response to it, has exemplified the challenges facing farm women today and "The Farmer Takes a Wife" documents these struggles and challenges. Chapters 1 and 2, "Life on the Farm" and "Farm Operations", outline the ac- tivities of a typical day for the farm women, whether it be housework, child-rearing or working at her husband's side in the barn or on the fields. Chapter 3, "Finances", outlines with statistical charts, the difficult financial situation in which farm families find themselves, especially in the last few years when interest rates soared.
