To The Citizens of the West Riding of 

 Lambton — 



Ladies and Gentlemen: — We take this opportunity of pres- 

 enting you with the official programme of the West Lambton Far- 

 mers' aind W*mens' Institutes. We expect that every ratepayer in 

 the riding will receive a copy which we hope you will read care- 

 fully. In former years we believe there were many of you who re- 

 ceived no notice of our meetings as it is difficult to get handbill! 

 properly circulated. Therefore the meetings of the Institute were 

 not so well attended as they should have been. But we request 

 that you keep the date of your nearest meeting open, so that you 

 may be able to attend the series of meetings for 1912 advertised In 

 this program. Im' the past this district has been supplied by the 

 Department of Agriculture with delegations that have given splen- 

 did satisfaction, and we believe that the present series of meetings 

 will be no exception to the rule. We hope that all will take advantage 

 of meeting together to discuss the many important questions that af- 

 fect the farmer. Subscriptions bo the following agricultiiral papers 

 will be taken at the rates as given below. Farmers' Advocate $1.25. 

 Farm & Dairy 85c. Canadian Farm 75c. Weekly Sun 75c. These prices 

 are good to members of the Farmers' Institute only. The secretary 

 gets a straight salary, and every cent of the commissioin will be cre- 

 dited to the institute. To intending purchasers we would refer you to 

 the columms of this booklet, believing as we do that the gentlemen 

 who have assisted in getting up this is official programme are men of 

 sterling character and business ability who will be pleased to save 

 you money when dealing^ with them in their respective lines. Please 

 ask for their prices before purchasing elsewhere. 



In anticipation of your assistance and co-operation in our com- 

 ing series of meetings we hope for splendid results. Wishing you all a 

 prosperous New Year. We Remain, Ever truly, 



Your Obedient Servant, 



THE EXECUTIVE.
