Tebbutt) The 'Fireside Farm Fortin held the first meeting for February at the home of Mr. and Mrs: Bert lioggart, with Mrs. J. R. Tebbutt as hostess. There were 21. mem- bers present. The topic "Barriersof Trade". made for a very lively discussion, and :instead of .the usual half :hour spent in discussing the "whys and, wherefors , more than an hour was taken up in the talking over of this subject. In the opinion of some members of this forum, free trade with the USA would be of great, benefit to the farmers, as we would get more for' our beef, late apples, turnips, etc. Also; we would be able to. purchase such things as machinery, electrical appliances, cotton, tires, radios, autos, etc., cheaper in Can- ada. On the other hand it might be harmful to our dairy industry as the USA may ship in edible oils. and margarine, as well as using Canada for a "dumping place"- for other undesirable products, as they can produce more cheaply than Canadian farmers.
