than it was then. Education A Neoeedty

Education. too. the Minister said. is something which the modern farmer must have if he ls to suc- ceed in what is fast becoming one of the most complex businesses in the world. The fact that. the young farmers of the Province have tak- en the trouble to organise theu

‘awn Federation in order that they

may create opportunities in thc

rural districts for a fuller life is a

most healthy sign. All the facili- ties of his Department, the Minis-

ter said, was at their disposal and he would be glad to do anything

.. for them that was within his

" power.

Among the junior farmers who dressed the meeting were Ralph

.. 'yner. Mount Herbert; William

' Cairns, Freetown; Donald Ander- . son, St. Peter's; Lloyd Martin. Cherry Valley; Wallace Harrison. Milton; and Margaret Murphy. Augustine Cove.

.....Al1 were agreed that, if the young farmers were to stay on the land. social and cultural opportu- nities must be more abimd-antly

,_lilrnlshed- They were of the opin- ion that the primary objective ofl each junior farmers’ group should

r be the securing of a community hall in which the office of the local junior group should be lo- cated. The securing also by each local group of an acre or more of land for the conducting of ath- letic games would be another aim. They were emphatic, too, in their desires to have as many young women as possible join the local groups.

Mr. W. R- Shaw, Deputy-Minis- ter of Agriculture, told the young

v people he was proud’ to be associ- ated with sunh a movement. The

fact that this Province was the

first in the Marititnes to form such an association shows that its young people are as progressive in

oi the country.

Mr. Shaw said ile thought the organizing of local groups with a. minimum membership of l2 was praiseworthy since those groups would serve as a nucleus through which, in the course oi a short time, the Federation -would. be able to count its membership by the hundred. l-le suggested they consider the idea of holding a. giant field day and picnic next

‘bummer, possibly on the grounds of, the Dominion Experimental

' Farm. and that they have as their minimum objective for that day an attendance of a thousand young farmers. both men and women.

Mr. B. 0- Wright. provincial live stock fleldman, said he approved the formation of such an organiz-

.stion by the young farmers. with such a large membership as they would be sure to possess. there would be a better opportunityior the selection of young men to participate in the competitions held by the boys’ and girls’ calf clubs and similar‘ organizations. Wstuterdayks. meeting had repre- sentatives present from Mount. Herbert. Bedeque. East Royalty.
