VANDELEUR (Intended for Last Week) The Farm Forum met Monday, Feb. 3rd. at the home of Will Ratcliffe and discussed the question "What Miakes Price's?" The Foriun was opposed to the old idea of allowing prices find their own level through the free- working of suipply and demand, nor did it favor trying to secure ag much as consumers could pay- The mem- bers felt that the fanner should have co'st of production, plus a profit, but felt that this was hard to determine without accurate bookkeeping or sta- tistics, etc. They were in favor of adequate floor prices for agricultural products, and felt that by co-oper- ative selling of fami products, and co-operative buying of supplies and equipment, farmers and their oi-gan- izations could have a great influence on prices- After the recreation per- iod, funch was served.

Since New Zealand can produce butter much cheaper than the producer in Canada, it appears to us that the producer would be well advised to step up production to a greater extent, in order that importaiton of butter would be unnecessary â€" as this is liable to distort our price structure.
