Basically people are what The Rural Voice is all about, for instance, some of the news stories in this issue: Murray Gaunt wins federation award, new Grey county federation executive elected, farm groups present briefs to N.D.P. Task Force. We want to offer you another facet of agriculture - the people behind the news. In this issue we have people involved in apple production, people committed to agricultural issues like affordable credit for farmers, people like Dr. Ernest Sanford, a Huron Park vet and his contribution to the study of swine diseases. The Rural Voice benefits from the participation of professional people contributing to the magazine. This month, veterinarian Ben Miltenburg gives some practical advice on calf scours and a partner in the Owen Sound office of Ward Mallette tells how to find a good accountant. Rounded out with local writers and columnists with agricultural backgrounds, the circle of people involvement widens. The next step includes you. Letters to the editor are appreciated; don't forget to use the free classified section for personal items or the free listing for upcoming events.
