riculture Board Room, with 45
present.
With the president, Mrs. C.
Sturdy, presiding and Mrs. E.
Radford at the piano, the meet-

Stewart Collect" and the Lord's
Prayer.
The minutes were road and ap-

Adams. The treasury/:°s monthly
statement was given by Mrs. F.
Hanley.
Several thanked their Sunshine
Sisters far remembrances.
The roll eall was answered by
"An outstanding tree in my
memory."
Mrs. Charles Elliott gave an
interesting address on "Agrieul-
tirre in Canada's Economy," stat-
ing that agriculture is our most
important single industry. The
man on the farm is the force
that welds land and equipment
into a producing unit, Just as
agriculture is at the base of all
other prosperity, so agriculture
depends upon all other industry
for its state of well being.
The development of labor-sav-
ing machinery has been a big
feature of Canadian agriculture.
The transformation in Canada's
agriculture by 'these successive
changes from hand power to
horse power and then to machine
power, goes far beyond mere
labor saving, Efficient use of
machinery is of the greatest im-
portance in keeping dawn costs
and thereby increasing profit.
However it is approached,
farm work is hard work, The
farmer owes it to himself to make
it as easy and as efficient as
possible. Science is et hand too,
to help .the farmer. One of the
best acids to management is a set
of good records.
One's standard of living can be

problem then is to reach Si. The
