For Kathleen and Erlin
Whitmore 200 acres at RR 1,
Seaforth is all they want to
cope with right now.
On their mixed farm
operation they grow their own
crops, produce their own grain
and raise their own livestock,
Holstein cows are crossed to get
their beef cattle, and they
average between 50 and 60
head. They buy weaned pigs
and feed finish them and
market about 150 a year.
Kathleen's views on farming
were mixed. "In this part of
the country there are quite a
few farms in cash crops, and
some get them and some
don't," she said. "We always
figured if we had a little bit of a
few things we had a better
chance to survive."
"There's a great deal of hard
work in farming for the amount
of return, and yet it's a wonder-
ful way of life."
"I feel that today you have to
have a lot of courage to start
out to farm, and you certainly
have to have equipment which
is very expensive, With the un-
certainty of success in
specialized farming, or with a
failure in cash crops, there's
such a terrific setback."
• "Too, you either have to have
a lot of land of your own, or
'eetee2dol custom ,tart,,
• • farming today you have to .have
0:A417.44d US amou nt
and stamina."
Married for 30 years, she
came to the farm as a bride and
shared the house with her
husband's parents. After her
mother-in-law's death her
father-in-law continued to live
with them as long as he was
able.
She still continues to do
some chores and most of the
book work, and says that like
the majority of farm women
everywhere she helps where she
can. "I'm what you might call
the 'chore boy' around here,"
she added. "I also, with my
daughter's help, look after the
flower and vegetable garden,
keep the grass cut during the
summer, and do quite a bit of
my own home decorating."

Area women featured in W.O. Farmer
the years. For several years she
has been the 4-H co-ordinator
for the Seaforth district.
Explaining her work as co-
ordinator Kathleen said that at
the present time they have 12
clubs in the Seaforth district
and her job was to see that
these clubs had leaders.
"Basically OMAF is back of
this arrangement. They have
the training school and
achievement days and I, as co-
ordinator, work through
OMAF, and generally the In-
stitutes and leaders. It's a sort
of a triangle."
"We are quite delighted with
the fact that within the last
three years the number of 4-H
clubs went from six to 12, and
it's going to continue to grow."
"A lot of the leaders are
parents of girls who are active
in 4-H. I have a leader who
has led 25 clubs, and and she
says she has never yet come
back from a training course
that she hasn't learned
something, We do have a good
group in the Seaforth area, and
there's always a lot of interest.
Which, of course, makes my
work that much more
pleasant."
"When we had a rural
church up the line I taught
Sunday School there, but when
it closed I stopped teaching, I
wouldn't presume to try to
teach today; the whole concept
of religion has changed, and
children's outlooks and values
are very different now."
Past president of the
Seaforth W.I., she feels the In-
stitutes need to draw in the
younger people to survive, Also
a life member of the IJ.C.W.,
she is not active in it at the
present time.
• Their 17 year old son Ralpfi
was killed in a car crash last ,
March, and this has left a big
gap in their lives. Sixteen year-
old Karen, their only child
now, is going to school.
Kathleen felt that at the
moment she didn't have or
want too many outside in-
terests. "My daughter's in-
terests are really mine at the
present time. We sew together,
shop and bake together. I also
do a little knitting, crocheting
and needlepoint."
"My whole interest,
basically, is people. And I hope
a little later on to be able to
devote my time to them, I was
thinking in terms of perhaps
visiting nursing homes, or
working with the Children's
Aid or some similar
organization where they need
help with people."

The secret? A Sterling Trusts Regis-
tered Retirement Savings Plan.The Govern-
ment of Canada wants you to live well
when you retire. So they allow you to deduct
contributions to our Retirement Savings Plans
from your taxable income. We pay you
compound interest on the plan, and they
don't tax that, either.
So if you contribute steadily, you can
accumulate a nice little fortune. For example,
let's say you're married with two children,
you earn $15,000 per year, and you can
contribute $1,000 per year.
Your plan will be worth well over
$100,000 in 35 years. (Based on current
income tax rates and an interest rate of
61/2 % compounded). You can contribute
more—as much as $4,000 a year or 20%
of your salary, whichever is less—or you can
contribute less, In fact, you can start a Ster-
ling Trusts Retirement Savings plan for as
little as $100. And a Sterling Trusts Plan
can often be coupled with an existing com-
pany pension plan.
You' re eligible to save1972 tax money
until March 1st,1973. Any contribution you
make to a Sterling Trusts Registered Retire-
ment Savings Plan by March 1st is deduct-
ible from your taxable income for 1972. That
could put you in line for a good sized rebate
in the Spring.
Don't let this opportunity slip by.
