Orr, Jimmy Orr, Fairfield Farm Forum The Fairfield Farm F o r u m met Monday night at the home of Gordon Wilson with 16 pre­ sent. A strong discussion on the best way to market farm pro­ ducts led to the conclusion that the open market was the best. The Co-operative and Wheat Hoards had done some* .good work but no system to market­ ing. Its success lay in the supply and demand of any product. In order to avoid surplus crop and low markets, it is advisable to keep farm crops as mixed as possible not jumping to big pro­ duction in any one product. Over / period of some years this system would be best. * A committee was appointed to canvas the community to get enough members to enter the Co-o p e r a t i v e Hospitalization plan for Huron -County.
