It le hoped the boiler ill be operating by the end 02 o week, On November 5th the Fireside farm forupt met at the home of Mr. and Mrs. George Carter to discuss the subject Vertical In tegration. Twelve adults were present. We thought some of the information was confusing and contradictory. Many of the state meats they made regarding ver- tical integration were not fore- casts of what we Wright expect but were facts true to many farms at the present. We believe that farms under the manage- ment of the farmer and his fam- ily become larger and more ef- ficient. The owner is more vitally interested than hired employees, The lack of funds is tate chief cause of farmers agreeing to ver- tical integration. There is no world surplus of foods. Popula- tions are increasing and so many are constantly hungry, Inn our neighbourhood turnips are the chief crop grown under Contract. Supply and demand still set the price of most products.
