TWO Curling Championship played last week at the Mon- tague Curling Club. The cham-

culture, Ottawa, told the confer- ence:

“If our population growth con- tinues at the recent rate, we will need to increase our food output to feed the equivalent of a new city of between 300,000 and 400,- 000 every year.”

“We have 2,000,000,000 acres of land. We farm only 174,000,000 -acres of it. Alt best, not more than 50,000,000 acres could be added, and even some of our present farm land is marginal and grad- ually being withdrawn from crop- ping.

“Farming is changing from a way of life to a business, with large specialty operations taking over the dominant position.”

However, farming still is larg- ely a farm- family enteruprise, Mr. Barry said 80 per cent of Canadian farms are fully-owned ‘by the operators and 72 per cent carry no mortgage debt.

The conference, which the fed- eration will hold in partnership with the retail section of the Hall- fax Board of Trade, will have on its agenda such topics as promo- tion of products of the Atlantic area; sales training ‘on a commu- -nity basis} financing of small I; u s i n e s s; personnel relations sales taxes; and transportation problems.
