Areas of cash crops have been in great difficulty so that many nave given up, cost of production so often more than returns. A rural life committee has been formed in the London conference conference with a leader who has experienced much stress and is able and willing to help others. The churcn is becoming much involved and is planning training for ministers for rural charges, so they may help with the many difficulties of coping with farming today, including including loss of wetlands, and of the improper use of pesticides. pesticides. There seems no cure for all those ills other than each individual's approach to the use of land, water, and air which have been given given to us for the good of all, not for selfish gain. Lloyd suggested the careful reading reading of first Kings, chapter 21 to find a reason for much of our distress.
