Referring to the London Farni Con ference when the Minister of Agric- ulture addressed a large gathering of angry farmers, a number oi bonuses broke out like a rash after the far- mers demanled parity prices. "I often read that farmers are as pataiotic ,as ,any other group,'? she continue, "that is an understate- inent,,the:farmers are more patriotic,. betause in the face of the Moat.diffia cult circumstances they made super- human efforts to produce ;for Brit,. ain.ls*, needs.", i*iss Maephail also eoundel, a.n,ote. of warning, after the war, farmers must discipline themselves to produce to meet the demands and no more, and also. further the education of Agriculture so that some day they can conduct a research on industrial uses of farm products, which will and can take care of surpluses.
