reports by lo cal farm operatois they hail a panel discussion in which we are privileg ed to participate personally we like to listen to the short snappy reports from practical farmers however it is perhaps a matter of opinion barberry and buckthorn campaign the highlight of the morning ses sion in our opinion was the brief illustiated repotl bj the york county agne itep moff cockburn on their

farmers are enthusiastic about the new vane ties darry and rodney these two vanetics withstood the rust ravages while other varieties like larain bea ver and ajax were almost a total loss in those areas several york county farmers stated it is either garry or rodney for me this year so if hal- ton county farmers want to try out cither of these varieties this year they had better move fast

for many worthwhile purpont adding to progress efidenc and the comfort of fata us legion notes by leg clark this week being the second week in the new year we think that the entire branch ecmfd do just a little thinking about the past year and also what is to come in the future but fust we think that there should be a little plain talk and possibly a little soul seaiehing first befoie we forget such an extremely important matter the new years paity held a yeai ago was also one where admission was paid and it furtherjiad been brought up on the flooi oi a meeting and discussed thor oughlj before a decision was made this we know for fact because at the time we occupied the presidents chair and brought it up to help de fray what was becoming a very un reasonably heavy expenditure for the branch and we still maintain that at any affair where only part of your membership is present that there should be at least a token charge to help defray the expenses of the even ing after all common sense should tell us that the entire bunch should not have to be assessed completely for an affair where possibly only 30 per cent of the members and friends attend we do not think for one moment that the people who raised the fuss ahout it were too serious after all there was hardly that much money involved to bother any one however we do think the whole thing left an extremely bad taste m the mouths of v pei tint of the members who see med quite happy about the whole af fair and while were on the subject let s right now say that some of the silliest most nonsensical complaints about the general operation of the bianch have been advanced in the last few weeks a new member brought it to our attention and we explained what most old members know that it is merely a severe case of what is or could he termed january itis or pre elcctionilis this is a rare and dread malady that is contracted each j ear by a number just before the election strangely enough it is quite possible to have this disease more than once in faet we know of people who have been getting it every year for ten years that we can look back upon it is a strange disease as it is more painful to those who come in contact with the sufferer than to himself because no matter what the listeners opinions are he is subjec ted to a constant string of complaints about the actions of the executive their manj obvious and grave short coming and their obvious inability to handle the job for instance the oth cr night we heard from one source the airconditioning was too expensive he knew where it could be done for a thud of the mone the back room should neer have been chang td and i utainly there was no rued to paint the plact we might pom out tho the disease has almost spent itsi if for another ar and w hilt it

to elect the person of their choice the way to get elected is to have the most votes so it necessarik follows that in the vast majority of cases the people who don t get elected are those who just do not receive a big enough vote simple isn t it senously we hope that onci again this year each member will take his duties seriously and be present that sunday lo vote for the person of his choice ythat is democracy at its best and we hope that every mcribr will spare the necessary time to come out and ensuie the branch of a reall big well contested election it onlj lakes a couple of hours mil
