Although the focus of the evening will be on farmiu, the general public is invited to attend and ask the candidates questions on any topic. "Agriculture is an important part of the local economy", said presi- dent Steve Thompson. "We want to make sure that the voters of the riding have a chance to hear what the candidates have to say on local farming issues." "The Huron Federation has de- cided to take an active interest in this campaign to bring out local agricultural issues," said Thomp- son. By publicizing where the candi- dates stand on agriculture, the vot- ers of the riding should be more in- formed on election day. Thompson pointed out that "We don't plan to endorse or attack any of the candidates. We are non- partisan; it's up to the voters to de- cide for whom to cast their bal- lots.' r Brussels Livestock Division of Gamble & Rogers Ltd.
