important role to j play in agriculture la the years to come according to dr helen abell rural sociologist withi the canada department of agri- j culture dr abell was guest speaker at a banquet held by j the women committee of the j ontario federation of agricul ture at the 25th annual conven tion of the ofa in toronto and she outlined the role of farm women in the next 10 years of agriculture dr abel quoted research un dertaken by her department which showed that many farm women still do work on farms other than just housework she said that the research showed that farm women had to take part in many of the chores of the farm business in order to make ends meei many women were handling field work as well as farm bookkeeping and other management roles and perhaps unexpectedly a major- ity of the farm women today en joyed this type of assistance to their husbands undoubtedly many people living in the city were aware of the work done by farm women in the past but apparently the picture has not changed radically judging by the results of the research car ried on by dr abell she said that the future will likely see farm women assuming even more important roles than the past would indicate dr abell suggested that in order for farmers to expand their businesses more and more farm women will have to share the responsibility of manage ment they will need to take over some of the accounting du ties sharing management de cisions or even taking part time jobs to help bring in supple mentary income dr abell pre dicted that farm wives will have to obtain more knowledge of farm credit management ac counting and business tech niques so that they will be ale to make a useful contribution to the farm business also important in dr abells iewpoint was the necessity for farm women to continue being wives and mothers she felt that it was necessary for the preser vation of the farm family that farm women encourage and find means of enabling their child ren to obtain both formal and informal education which they will need to farm successfully she felt that women could do much to keep alive the attitudes and values which are important for happy farm family living lastly she predicted that farm women must learn to adapt quickly to changing farm con ditions midtown garage lour local bp dealer hilkman sales service general repairs 24hr towing 170w days evenings 170j
