province arid we were feeling pretty good about the representation our own district There wo sat listening to Mr story of rehabilitation of worn out washed away lands slowly the picture of a new agriculture unfolded to us In this case it didnt mutter that some of this story was in credible and some of it was exaggeration and some again just an out and out fishing story You know the of a fishing It is not a fib or a lie or misrepre sentation It just story where everything thats ami good is always bigger ami better It was a picture painted in vivid colors and it had mean ing and it hope in it This lecture coming on top of ono of dark weeks of farming had a special meaning for us Many people there lost a lot of money that week and most of it they wilt never recover There were undoubtedly beef farmers there who may have lost as us 5D per head on cat He in their barn that week and hog producers who if tUeyv had market weight pigs to take dollars less several months ago Mr
