The Rural Voice, 2000-11, Page 5Cover
Octagonal barns, like this one at the Farm
Museum, are rare indeed but even the once -
common bank barn is becoming scarcer by the
year. Those barns, and the way they were
constructed, tell
much about the
history of
agriculture in
Ontario.
Freelancer Larry
Drew, who took
our cover photo,
looks at the
stories these old
barns have to tell
and how they
changed from
place to place.

The
LRA VOICE
Frustration is growing at the lack of response from
government leaders to the plight of Ontario farmers caught
between poor prices and poor crops. Some old-time farm
leaders think it's time to stop being polite and take a harder
line to get action from the politicians.
