McKILLOP Farm Forum— The Farm Radio Forums scheduled for Monday night at Mac Scott's, was postponed because of the stormy weather, until Tuesday, when a good crowd was in attendance. John Kerr was convener for the meeting and presented a well prepared paper on "Whither Agriculture," the subject for the discussion. This topic was discussed at length by the members present. It was felt that production could he increased somewhat in the community during 1942 if weather conditions were favorable and suffic- ient labor 'was made available. Grain crops, poultry precincts and milk were thought to he the products where some expansion could be made. The suggestion that a local committee be fmed to look . into matters of pro- dm uction was not looked upon as a. necessity at the present time. Fur- ther guidance from government agen- cies would be welcome in regard to plans, fon' production In each com- munity. Variety test plots for field crops would be of great help in mak- ing a choice 66 varieties suitable for the area. A discussion on possibie long terns changes in the community continued at length but no very defin- ite conclusions were arrived at, It was agreed that agriculture is Cer- tainly changing and would continue to change, but just what change would take place was a little difficult to forecast. I4oWever it was conceded that more machinery would be used, farms would be attrger, and that the average ao"eage of farm operations was becoming higher, due to the rash of young people to the armed sere• ices a,nd to War industries. The noun- tolpat doctor' system • was ° again dis- cussed briefly.
