The Fireside Farm Forum met this week -at the home of 'Mrs. Robert Jamieson, Hullett, with 32 adults present. The topic under dis- cussion was: U.S. Dairy Sales Slumping, Must Canada Follow the Trend? The members believed the trend would be harmful if farmers did not have a market for their dairy pro- duce. Forced to sell Iivestock, they would then have a harmful surplus of grain. Urban communities would suffer, it was noted, with milk sup- plies decreasing and the dairy farmers' money would be missed in purchasing consumer products. Co-operation with the dairy far- mer -if the dairy substitutes chal- lenge is to be met -by buying milk, butter and cheese, is necessary, it was pointed out. The Forum agreed that the law keeping margarine in its natural color should still be en- forced. Edible oils, the. Forum held, imported to this country, should be taxed in order to raise the price of the substitutes. This would also result in a rise in the price of soyabeans, the Forum con- tended. rl, i�rl,,.6f :; rn, �'J., ,.a-�, �h'•.,,i ..
