finest farm land to be found anywhere however we are not really a rural county any more as a matter of fact probably only 12 to 15o of our population are engaged in farming much the same as the national average figure mind you this hasbeen a fairly rapid change as thousands of newcomers came into our area each season largely into new subdivisions farmer or not the new bill introduced into the house of commons just recently by the minister of agriculture the hon alvin hamilton is bound to affect you directly or indir ctly every canad an taxpayer is involved in the problems of the farmer through subsi dies and of course the purchase of basic food needs this new bill is probably the most basic measure your government has considered to assist m controlling the farm surplus problem low farm incomes n many areas and the necessary rehabil tat on and retraining of those who wish lb leave the land basically this measure is con cerned with taking out of farm production b voluntary means those areas which ma be clas sed as marginal and which n most cases are merely adding to farm surplus problems wi thout producing an economic return to the farmer there are a number of such areas in canada sometimes in large sec ttons occasional as individual farms what brings about thm pro blem well in some case- it is management laek of know edge lack of training lack of the abiht through
