village on september 12 there will be two questions are you in favour of dining licences liquor with meals are you in favour of lounge licences liquor without meals a recount in richmond hill gave a majority for both licences the same two ques tions were recently turned down in woodbridgc what is in store for canadian farm homemakers in the years ahead will life be leisurely and restful not a chance say the experts in spite of laborsav ing devices but they add it can be interesting and challeng ing as a matter of fact if the farm homemaker is not right in there pitching the farm couple is not apt to be in the farming business long at least not suc cessfully what do rural sociolo gists have to say about this dr helen c abell head of the ru ral sociology unit economics division of the canada depart ment of agriculture and a for mer stouffville resident ven tures to prophesy thus in order to maintain or to expand the size of farm busi ness on many family farms more farm women will help their husbands and families by either sharing more and more in the farm work and keeping of business records or by taking paid employment dr abell isnt just guessing three years ago she organized a survey in which she asked 352 ontario farm homemakers do you do more or less work ar ound the farm than when you first became a farmers wife the women dr abell queried ranged in age from 21 to 81 years average 44 they had been farmers wives for about 16 years about half of these women told her they do less work now than when they first became farmers wives it is significant that several in this group said they did less work on the farm because they had taken on paid jobs elsewhere to help out with the family income a quarter of them said they do just as much now as formerly and almost as many said they now do even more farm work a survey of a group of farm women in new brunswick show ed that 71 per cent of them did some work on the farm in addi tion to housekeeping duties in prince edward island 80 per cent of the group surveyed help ed their husbands with chores in the ontario group it was 98 percent what farm work do these on tario women do out of every 100 89 do gardening 61 either clean milkers or pails or help with the milking or feeding of cattle 53 help with the poultry feeding hens cleaning eggs 42 keep farm accounts 26 do some field work and 13 do some other type of farm work for example driving a tractor or other ma chine or marketing produce western helpmates and on the grain farm of the prairies the women help with the gardening they keep farm accounts and many work in the fields when the children have reached school age many a far mer and his wife decide that if mother can help with the field work it will not be necessary to hire a man good farm help is scarce and a farmer hates to trust his shiny and expensive tractors to careless or incompe tent help mother may be inex perienced but she is vitally in terested in the farm operation of course it may be necssary to change the grain auger for a lighter type more easily moved or to get an electric stove for the farm kitchen but the farm couple often decide this is pref erable to paying housing and feeding farm help on the larger grainproducing unit women tend to do less work in the fields but the wife of the owner of one such farm when asked how she spent her time- said on the road she took meals to men working in fields at a distance dashed to town for repairs picked up che micals to treat seed spray weeds or kill grasshoppers took grain samples to the elevator for moisture tests and so on to quote our sociologist again tt is common experience to hear a farm woman say modest ly that she really doesnt do any farm work yet in a single day and in addition to her normal household duties she may have weeded a garden washed and sterilized milking equipment fed and watered a flock of fowl ga thered and cleaned several dozen eggs and made a trip to town in the family truck to obtain a needed part for a farm ma chine farm women have always helped in rush periods the pio neer woman often stooked her long skirts and heavy stockings protecting her legs from the sharp stubble her modern coun terpart clad in jeans drives the grain truck or takes the baler round the field is the farm wife important to the farm business dr abell conducted another study in two mixed farming areas of central alberta in 1952 of some 200 farm businesses studied the ma jority of operators were married men a few employed house keepers and on a few farms there was neither housekeeper nor farm wife a low level of la bor efficiency was found on al most half the farms where there was no farm wife and on less than onethird of the farms where there was a farm wife dr abells second prediction began thus farm women will increasingly realize the extent to which they and their husbands are jointly involved in decision making concerning both the home and the farm and particu larly the plan of farm finance with this realization they will seek knowledge and understand ing of such matters as the prin ciples of farm management the keeping of business records the use of farm credit nowadays farmers talk to their wives before making a largo machine purchase asserts one implement dealer the farm wife is apt to be realistic and not as influenced by the thought of owning a shiny new combine and asks can the old one be repaired well enough to last this fall perhaps it would pay to repair it rather than pay inter est on a loan for a new one she knows all too well that the price of what the farmer sells seldom goes up while the price of what he buys seldom stops going up the trend is to fewer farms of a larger size increased produc tion is necessary to bring in the income generally desned and needed by farm families the farmer and his wife must decide if the farm business can be ex panded if it can survive without expanding and how to cut costs if the farm is small they may decide that one of them must take a fulltime or part- time job off the farm either to improve the standard of living or to build up a bit of capital so the farm wife may get a parttime job in a cannery or in the tobacco fields she may go back to teaching or nursing and in order to manage it she must streamline her housekeeping or it may be that the wife will keep the farm going while her husband finds offthefarm em ployment if they decide to build up the farm and the wife is going to be a full partner in the enter prise she will have to be keen about keeping up with new de velopments in the farm field listening to the radio and check ing farm magazines for new methods new grains and the anyone who oivns anything should make a will you neednt be wealthy to warrant a will in fact the less you have to leave your loved ones the more important it is to conserve it and make the moat of it pe as executors of many estates know the pitfalls the endless difficulties and bitter disappointments that

agricultural research workers and calling her hus bands attention to them when classes and discussion groups on farm management are held she will be there dr abell also suggests that she must attempt to understand the broader aspects of farming as part of the national economy there is one more logical step says this sociologist this will be the active participation of farm women working right be side their husbands in formu lating and carrying out policies and programs of concern to themselves and all farmers through farm organizations the challenge for those who wish to remain as farmers wives is to help their husbands survive as successful farmers this requires constant and in creasing knowledge and applica tion of agricultural technology and of business methods it re quires a recognition of the vital need for farmers to cooperate and not compete with one an other in mavketing their prod uce it requires an awareness of the reed for farmers in all parts of canada to recognize their common interests and to present their point of view clearly and constantly to the 83 percent of the population who depend on farmers to produce the food they eat as mother and
