Speaking of changes on the farm scene he pointed out that there are 1,800 fewer farmers in Huron county than when he arrived in the county in 1951.

He predicted that many of these will automatically cease to function. Mr. Montgomery indicated he hopes that much of the ability of the farmer of the future will come from such training as 411 Club programs and activities. He suggested there will be dras- tic changes in programming and training in such things as linear application of feed stuff analysis and more refined soil analysis for the farm would commence, at least on an elementary scale. Mr. Montgomery described farming in the future as a chall- enging occupation which will re- quire all the education students Gan avail themselves of. He sug- gested at least four years of high school with an agricultural sci- ence option and if at all possible, a two year course in Agriculture at one of the Agricultural schools. At the same time students should avail themselves of all the help and training they can get through 4H and Junior Farmers pro- grams. For those who do not choose farming or "agribusiness" as an occupation, Mr, Montgom y suggested these people living in the suburbs will find themselves acting as public relations offic- ers, attempting to fill in for the public relations job that is being done by Agriculture to woo our homemaker - consumers with sound information.
