waiter bayles and alan kllicott was reelected secre tary the topic discusssed was the press in all it- phases and the way it served and influenced the com munity it was generally agreed that local papers are better with out the interior stuffing known as ready print and could be made more atrtactiv with the space given instead to lively loca happenings the following state ment with regard to the dailies was en dorsed whereas the dally papers are widely read by farm people we believe that more discussion and publicity should be given to their problems arid doings and if space is not available it could be obtain- 1 ed by the elimination of the many columns of descriptions of mur ders sex crimes details of court proceedings and other vulgar material- farm papers proper were con sidered to be doing excellent work within their scope and their further study and support were recommended as in the papers our discussion wandered all over j the globe and even during refresh- i ments went on unabated owing to a counteratrraction monday the forum did not meet but on dec 13th those interested are invited to the home of andrew glen when the topic will be the movies the guide

increasing water shortage which is j being felt keenly by farmers loct s loses legal battle to get 8283 i foreign courts cannot sue in ontario until administration i papers are issued here throughout western ontario recent years in the early days of agriculture in ontario water famine was never experienced on the other hand it puzzled the farmers at times to rid their land of the surplus water that interfered with the cropping and cultivation of the soil but with the steady clearing of the land and the introduction of drainage on a large scale there were occasions at certain seasons of the year when the water supply was not as plentiful as it had been not so many years ago practically every farmer retained a wood lot that is he saved a few acres from the axe to maintain his fuel supply now in many instances even that- is gone on many of the farms where practically every acre is under cultivation the result has been that with no bushland to conserve the snow the snow melts rapidly in the spring and not gradually in a way that would do the utmost gootl and unless rainfall is plenteous there is soon a noticeable shortage of water in the wells in seasons when rainfall is below normal farmers in many districts are obliged to drive livestock several miles to water to assure a proper water supply it is claimed that ten per cent of the acreage of farm lands should be forest farmers in a number of counties where the water supply has failed realize that they made a mistake in entirely denuding their farms of swamp and bush lot and are reforesting the poorer sections of their holdings
