An important program in WGN Radio's comprehensive schedule of farm service is the WGN "Farm Pohcy Outlook " series. During recent weeks, WGN Farm Director, Norman Kraeft, has arranged for leaders of the American Farm Bureau, The National Grange and National Farmers Union to meet and discuss agriculture's problems — for the first time on any public forum. On the first programs in this vital series, William Kuhfuss, President of the Illinois Agricultural Association (Farm Bureau), Dorsey Kirk, Master of the Illinois State Grange, and Ralph Bradley, President of the Ilhnois Farmers Union, joined Mr. Kraeft in two half hour discussions which resulted in agreement on eight points in the field of farm policy. Subsequent programs featured the leaders of the Indiana and Michigan Farm Bureau, Grange and Farmers Union, who also reached similar agreements on pohcy. This is farm service with a meaning — another example of WGN Radio's continuing efforts to present the most constructive programs for the farmers of the great middlewest. Daily WON Farm programs include Milking Time, 5:30-6:00 A.M., Monday thru Friday; Country Fair, 12:10-1:00 P.M., Monday thru Saturday; Farm Market Reports, three times daily, Monday thru Friday.
