mrs iloy ellcnton halton form radio forums joined the cbc network monday october 30th tn listen to the discussion on can i farm shorter hours tile first question was how can hours of labour be shortened on the farm without loss of money having conveniently equipped machinery and buildings arranged and kept in good repair plus more efficient planning of work was the answer given by kilbride hornby limestone ss 4 esquesing boyne and omagh one of the newer for ums ligny suggested the elimina tion of daylight saving time mt ncmo humorously replied that a farmers solution to the problem for a farmer to lie in bed in the morning arid let his wife work- the first shift there was a diversity of opinion on whether a farmer should try to shorten his hours of labour or con centrate on increasing income hornby believes fanners should fall in line with other branches of soc iety shorten hours and enjoy more recreation mt nemo and omagh partially agreed the latter being against increasing income too much because it would mean overproduc tion kelso was in opposition say ing hours of labour should not be shortened until farmers have a steady sure market with guaran teed and adequate prices boyne agreed with this saying farmers need all the income they- can get to pay tor high priced machinery which is necessary to be a success ful farmer ss 4 esquesing felt the problem an individual one depending on the individuals own circumstances finances and equipment kilbride believes that if all farmers shorten their working hours there will be less produce hence a natural in- crcascin prices and in farm in come ligny sugegsted buying equipment on a cooperative basis to reduce cost of production which in turn could shorten work hours lime stone claimed that income tax is a deterrent to working longer hours for s larger income and suggested moderation in work hours there are now 26 forums in hal ton county with ligny and ss 9 trafalgar the newest ones to join the group j
