In Ontario the difficulty is not to find suitable farms or to find young men who wish to farm, but to find the necessary capital or backing. In Eastern Ontario in 1953 the average capital investment per farmer was 420,560. Young men • may be fortunate enough to secure some financial help, or backing from their fathers and if living' close by may save greatly by using much of the same ma- chinery. War Veterans may se- cure help from the Veterans Land Act which has a financial interest in one out of 13 farms in Canada, and frequently se- cure very valuable advice from them, Canadian Farm Loan Board provides long term credit. The Farm Improvement Loan Act operates in the field of shorter credit. The junior farmer loan establishment of Ontario will loan a maximum of $6000 to an experienced young roan. Young farmers and their wives should not try to start with too much, but should learn to do without unnecessary things for a few years, and use less expen- sive equipment, cars, etc. Ex- change help with their neighbors Christmas Concert In Walton Hall MON., DEC. 20 at 3.30 p.in.

SLEIGHS TOBOGGANS TRIKES Ell rJ Ir, PLUMBING HARDWARE QUALITY HEATING- '"SERVICE • e .1-i [ e -A` . ltea\�.r� discussion was held led by John Solden with 25 members present. 1(1) To what sources do young farmers in your area look for credit when' they estab- lish their own farms. The young farmers in this area turn to the various loan Corporations, such as V.L.A., Junior Farmer Estab- lishment Loan Corp., but in the majority of cases, mortgages are obtained from private sources. Banks finance the purchases of farm implements etc. (2) How can a young farmer avoid un- duly heavy investments in land, livestock and equipment when getting started? We think that with the present prices of farm products, coupled with the tre- mendous cost of buying and equiping a farm of his own, very often equals the cost of the farin. A young farmer would- have to revert to the horse and buggy methods of his fore- fathers. This forum suggest that young farmers should rent land adja- cent to his father's farm. After this discussion progres- sive euchre was held. Prize win- ners: Ladies, Mrs. John Solden; Gents, Howard Adkins. Next meeting will be held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Glen Weido.
