A Feature for Every Friday

Among The Farmers Federation Of Agriculture liows

The Melancholy Days

we heard someone remark that ..,h,g he liked about the-spring us that it came at s. time of the war when it was badly needed. we might say that the fall is a mm; which we do not need at all and which is merely a stepping stone to something worse.

However, fall we must have, and compared with the sort of treat- merit in other parts of the coun- m-. we have so far no cause for gcmpliilhi-.

Federation Activities

The Joint meeting 'of the direct- ors of the three county and pro- vincial boards dealt with a num- ber of important problems.and as should be in a democ tic organi- zation. decided that the members vere the ones to make the final decision.

The suggestion has been ad- vanced that the Federation would function more effectively and de- velop greater interest if from ten in nitcen school districts were or- :r.nmzcd in a group with a logical "centre and a secretary who could be active in various types of rural activity.

This plan if put into effect could mean the elimination of the county organization and also of thc secretary and chairmen in the school district who might be re- plarrd by a committee to form a bnnlrl for the larger unil-

Thls is the question which, the st-hnnl district meetings and the annual meetings to follow. will be asked to consider and decide upon.

Electors; Reform

our rural people have a keen and healthy interest in politics. an uttcrcsti which the Federation, ulllie non-political itself, is de- MTIVIIS of fostering and developing. 1-'n: this reason the directors feel instilled in requesting the Legis- lature of the Province to review the Election Act and where neces- sh y make changes designed to have the Act deal with conditions ill the light of modern changes and developments.

If any changes are to be made. we feel the Legislature would be desirous of expressing the wishes and opinion of the electors. Tlicrefore, at the coming meetings the Federation members and in- lcrcsted farmers will be asked to discuss and record their opinion on the following points:

1. Property voting. 1 . Voting at 18 years of .age. 5 . One member to a smaller dis-

trict.

Compulsory voting.

Effective control of bribery.

Representation based on both

population and area involved.

These points will probaljy pro- rillce some lively discussion and v.i'.l certainly develop some inter- est in our democratic, processes.

Dabs For Meetings

school district Federation meet- ings are set for the night of Fri- day. November 23rd. Secretaries vill be supplied with information, and members are urged to encour- age a full attendance of all voters in the district. officers should D6 appointed and the secretary and chairman will be voting delegates to the annual meeting.

At the annual meetings every vcter present will be afforded the privilege of discussing and voting on electoral reform.

The annual c.unty meetings are set for the following dates and places-meetings both afternoon

We look forward to a l a interesting program is being pre- pared.

Info Go To The Pig Barn!

The interest shown by our Royll visitors in the livestock at the Ex- rlerlmentai Perm was a gracious compliment to our most important industry. English aristocracy has always been an aristocracy of the l0lI and this is probably the reason that it still exists while in many other lands. it has passed into history.

The breeding and development

of fine livestock is a worthy out- let for the ability of our ableet people. Island swine by their achievement at the Royal Winter Fair have certainly demonstrated the worthiness of the interest dis- played in them by Royalty.

The reception accorded the Roy- al vlsitors in this Province was neither too demonstrative nor too restrained and indicated the in- herent good sense and good breed- ing of our people. '

We Win At The Royal

Last year's judging of wine at the Royal was a. first prize con- tradiction. Just why hogs that were so close to perfection when slaughtered were worthy of so lit- tle attention when alive has never been explained. -

This year there seitms to have been a. change of heart and our Island breeders, by their winningn in the live classes, have brought honor to themselves. to the prov- nice. and certainly to the hogs.

A win at the Royal is an out- standing achievement and our hogs and dressed poultry have certain- ly demonstrated their superiority. The results obtained with hogs in this province are a striking dem- onstration of what can be accom- plished when skilled progressive breeders co-operate with compet- ent officials who understand breed- ing and who have the ability "to direct a breeding program on a provincial basis.

Farm Forum

Floyd Griesbach, national secre- tory of Farm Forum is presently in the province and will be contact- ing groups and individuals from North Cape to East Point with a view to acqualnting more people with what is recognized as the out- standing rural study group set-up in existence anywhere.

The decision of UNESCO to con- duct an intensive survey on Na- tional Farm Forum set-up and achievements with a view to mak- ing use of the information in Eur- ope and Asia indicates that we may not fully appreciate the sig- nificance of what is being done here, '

The pattern of rural social life has been gradually but surely changing from the days when we had in the province. debating so- cietles. singing schools. temper- ance lodgcs. and rural people vis- ited in their neighbor's home.

Farm Forum can accomplish much by the development of bet.- ler fraternal feelings and the in- itiation of group study and com- munity action.

The Silver Lining

Farmers have the reputation of being unduly pessimistl but on manykpoints this fall. things look pretty good. We have produced more butter than in any previous year: our grain crop is probably the largest ever; there is an abun- dance of all livestock feed; pota- toes were never higher in price at this time of the year; pulnwood and lumber is bringing in substan- tial revenue; eggs are profitable and income from our cattle has never been at a higher level.

High production costs. excessive freight charges and scarcity of labor do tend to dim the rosy pic- ture io some extent. .

Believe it or not, but poet By- ron penned the following fine tri- bute to a Newfoundland dog and then had it inscribed on the ani- mal's monument.

"When some proud son of man returns to earth, '

Unknown to glory. but upheld by birth.

And storied urns record who rests 'below.

When all is done, upon the tomb is seen,

Not what he was. but what he should have been.

Whose honest heart is still his master's own,

Who labors, fights, lives. breathes, for him alone,
