A resolution was passed asking that tha number of members in the local Legislative Assembly be reduc- ed to sixteen.

Cooperation among the farmers in support of the Marketing Board was emphasised u the greatest need in securing satisfactory prices.

m. Preaidentz-

In making report oi Central Par- mer’: Institute activities during 1933 we feel that our efforts have result- ed in an aggregate business of 8.91028 from sixteen inatltutas submitting an annual financial ra- port to the department. While this average of $560.00 per instituta shows that at least a few of our lo- cal institutes have taken the advan- tage of co-operatlon, I regret that the balance have not been so active. when prices for iarni products were h many o! us wen content to let the other fellow do our business, but when prices fall it il brought home to us the fact that we must look out for our interests and there is no better way that this’ can bs accomplished than by real co-opsr- ation plus quality.

At one time tha farmer prided himself on his independence, but to- dsy under conditions as we now have them. I feel that we should- give up this perhaps mistaken idoai of independence, or would it not ba ' better if we changed that word to inter-dependence, for are we not each and every one oi’ us, dependent on our neighbor, and what greater service can we render to our coun- try than to do that which will be of the greater benefit to tba largar "lumber, can we not than by a great-
