No. 2, McKillop .Farm Forum met at bhe home of Mr. and Mrs.' Sam McClure to ,dis- cuss the first of the series on farm marketing. None of us were very willing to accept much in this way of restriction. Prices of farm produots are so low and profit so small it is on- ly by ,quantity production that we can keep our heads above water at all. Lower overhead and lower service charges' by urban business seems to be our only hope. We think any pro- duction restriction should be on the large operators who are well enough off 'to be alble to coast for a while, The small man needs all, he can get to be able Ito keep oing. There is a lot of talk of squeezing the smaller man off bile farm (but will he not he 'a bigger charge on the community in town drawing un- employment insurance than .he. is -now on the farm, and it has yet to be proved that the small family farm with its cheap la- bor is less efficient than the larger outfit.
