THE OAKVILLE-TRAFALGAR JOURNAL Thursday, November 9, 1950 DISCUSS PROPOSALS FOR SHORTENING FARM HOURS Halton County Farm Radio Forum joined the C.BL. network of Radio Broadcasts and listened in on Monday, October to the discussion on the subjer H We Farm on Shorter Hour The first question "How could hours of labour be shortened on the farm with- out loss of income?" Having convenient ly equipped machinery and buildings arranged and kept in good repair and more efficient planning of work the answer given by Hornby, Limestone Boyne, Omegh and one of our Infant Forums, Legny, suggestend the illimina- tion of Daylight Saving Time, while Mt. Nemo humourously replied their solu- tion to this problem that the only way. a farmer could shorten his hours of labour was to lic in bed in the morning and let vour wife get up and work the first shift. Evidently the scarcity of Farm Labour necessitates the women being forced into Farm labour in order to shorten the hours of labour for the farmer' himsel The second question, "Should a Farmer Try to Shorten Hours of Labour on the Farm or Concentrate on Increasing In- come?" There scems to be quite a di- version of opinion on this question, Hornby Forum claims to be of the opin- ion that farmers should shorten their hours of labour and keep in line with other branches of society and therefore be able fo enjoy more recreation which would tend to give us a better state of mind and as a result maintain better health. Mt. Nemo and Omagh partially agreed except the latter felt a farmer should not concentrate on increasing his income because it would result in over production, while Kelso emphat said no, a farmer should not shorten his hours of labour until he had a s ly sure market with guaranteed and ade- quate prices for his products, but must increase his income as much as possible Boyne agreed with this also and added mers need all the income they can collect to pay for the high priced ma- s | chinery necessary to be an efficient farm- Killbride 0, | el S. 4 Esquesing felt the questi of shorter hours on concentration of in- come depended largely on the individuals own circumstances, his financial stand- ing, equipment to work with, and wle- ther he had his own help or hired help on a yearly wage. While Kellbride felt if all farmers shortened their work- ing hours, there would be less produce, therefore 4 natural increase in thé price of foods and in the farm income. Ligny suggests buying equipment on a co-oper- ative basis to reduce cost of production and thereby shorten hours of labour. Also they felt the efficient planning of ones daily work means a great saving in the hours of labour. Limestone however. claimed: the in- come tax is a detriment to working longer hours for a larger income and should suggest to strive for moderation in hours of work and more hours to make a living lead to a fuller and better life.
