Certainly the Allen site, as it is known, is a good site forthe type of institution planned. It is big, comparajtively level and would present no building problems. But there are hun­dreds of equally good, or even better sites all over the pro­vince. The thing is, is the Allen site the best one, from all prac­tical aspects, for a collegiate to serve Ingersoll and the sur­rounding district. We don’t think so. We think it will be a big mistake if itgoes through. Take, for.example, the matter of accessability. If thecollegiate goes on the Allen site, which has been approved by the board of education, it will mean thaCevery student in Ing­ersoll, (and Ingersoll students form the majority), will have to walk anywhere from a block to two miles to school. Ruralstudents, however, are driven anyway, so an extra severalblocks one way or another means nothing. Sure, you say, what’s two miles—I used to walk five miles-and thought nothing of it. Okay. But why make that added hardship when there is no necessity?Then there is the matter of services—fire, sewer, water, police, etc. If the school goes on the Allen site, it will be a mat­ter for North Oxford. Water won’t be serious, nor perhaps police, but for sewage a septic field will have to be built This,it has been estimated, might cost $33,000 or more. And amplefire protection would be a serious problem. But say Alien-site enthusiasts, all these problems vanishif the town of Ingersoll takes the school site into the town proper. Water is close, sewers are not far away, and fire andpolice protection will be assured. We doubt the town would even consider taking more areaunto itself, and extending its services further. There would be plenty of howls from townfolk still clamoring for waterand sewage, and unable to get them. And why should thetown take over the land? It simply means extra financial headaches, and burden, with nothing in return.There is little doubt the town would assume the above loads if the Allen site were the only site suitable. But it isn’tThe Mason site on Kihg Street East has already been approved on two occasions by the department of education, at Queen’sPark. Dr. E. G. Pleva, University of Western Ontario’s famed planning expert, looked over all proposed sites, and reportedthat in his opinion, taking all in all, the Mason site was the most suitable for the $750,000 projectIf that site were selected, then the town would be bound to service it at perhaps less cost than to service the piece pres­ently outside the town’s limits. No, the Allen site, to us, just doesn’t add up. When thecollegiate board voted on the site recently, the townships and township sympathizers lined up one on one side, and the townthe other. There was one more township enthusiast than town, arid the Allen site became the board's recommendation.It is almost certain Queen’s Park will accept the board’s recommendation. Local conditions or influences bearing op arecommendation are not considered by them; they simply assume the board has considered all factors and made a sin­cere recommendation, and then give the government’s official blessing.Only one thing can possibly change the situation, and thatis if the town declines to service the Allen site, since it is out­ side the limits. In which case, the matter might have to go backto the collegiate board for reconsideration. The main thing, of course, is the school. It is desperatelyneeded, and we would not want to see a squabble over the site put a monkey wrench into the works. Nor, however would wewant to see petty vanities or jealousies blind our representa­tives to seeing and acting for what they sincerely believe is in the best interests of all. No, if the Allen site were the only reasonable site avail­ able, we’d say go ahead, by all means; the long walk and pro­vision of services are simply burdens and drawbacks we will have to assume. But the Allen site isn’t; there is another avail­able considered by experts just as good, and providing fewer hardships and problems all around. The new collegiateis to serve both the community and the country for generations to come; its site must be wisely chosen. Ingersoll Cubs On 3-Day Camp Cubmaster Henry J. Judd and Don Bucknell, assistant, took some 25cubs to Red Star camp site recently for the boys* annual three-day camp.It was Mr. Judd's 22nd camp trek. And instead of riding in state, theboys hiked the seven miles to camp.They started out from Trinity United church and marched in fullkit to the police station, where they were inspected by Constable BudBrowne. The boys gave Bud the Grand Howl and Bud gave one ladthe works for having the wrong pants on. , The police escorted the ladsthrough town, and taking turns, the boys carried their flag flying thewhole seven miles. They stopped for lunch and rest four times, and oneach occasion they were treated to ice cream by Sam Wadsworth orchocolate bars by Bill Forman. Arriving at camp, they found thetents already up, ReV. J. M. Ward and some kind persons having gone up the night previously. During the week-end the boys swam, hiked and passed tests, had a wonderful*turkey dinner served by Mrs. Wadsworth, Mrs. Clifford Beynon and Mrs. J. R.Barnett. Mr. Judd conducted a specialchurch service at the camp site, Mr. and Mrs. Beynon leading the singing,and Mrs. Jack Douglas soloing. Num­ erous Kiwanians attended the ser­vice, and Krwanian Albert Kennedy, of North American Cyanamid had a truck bring the boys’ stuff home, and Kiwanians Jim McArthur, Elmer Chisholm, Kennedy and John Ward brought the lads home., Goes To Picnic With $50 Cash Ud Fit To Kill If you see a wee lad runningaround town knocking his headagainst a wall, don’t worry about it—he’s okay. Rut he’s angry.This is what happened. This little lad was one of the mul­titude who attended the Steelworkers' pienfc at Port Stanley Saturday. Asan extra treat, his mother gave himher wallet, with a few pennies to spend down at the beach.After the lad headed picnic-ward, however, mother realized that tuckedaway in a secret flap was $50—the family’s pay. Then the panic be­gan.Members raced to the train, only to find it gone. Mother stewed aboutall day, seeing her wee lad leading s life of gay abandon, with millionsof popsickles, chocatete bars, hot dogsand pop—and the $50 dissipated.Finally, our boy returned home,tired, full, sunburned and happy.And well.Mother reached for the wallet— peeked into the secret flap, and thereit was—the $50. Our boy hadn’t even known it was there.He does now. CURDS and WHEY MAIL THIS IN Citizens, how do you feel about the proposed col­ legiate site? What is your choice? I am in favor of (show by an X) 1.

Plan Pool Parents’ Night To Watch The Kids Perform There has been a marked increase iin attendance at the Maude Wilson Memorial Swimming Pool this sum- imer compared with teat yean With i nearly G00 youngsters enrol led,daily average attendance for the ifirst two weeks of July was 274 children for instruction in the morn­ings. This compares with an aver­age of 191 test year, and represents an increase of 43 per cent.The afternoon and evening paid swimming show* a great in-crease. Last year there were 3278 for the first two weeks of July,compared with 4683 this year—a gain of 30 per cent.The beginners are doing well and there will be R real harvest of newswimmers in Ingersoll thus year Parents are urged to encourage thechildren to attend regularly. Sonic youngsters make progress easily, but it is difficult for the child whoshows up for several jnornings to duck, plash and struj^le with noapparent progress. Such a child, and that covers well over half of the beginners, need encouragementand the faith that all that is needed is regular attendance to get on topof the water -with the rest of Uic swimmers. Parents should realize what a wonderful opportunity their children have to learn to swim, to keep their heads above the waterlinewhich often is also the lifeline. One of the most effective ways to encourage children is to respond totheir cry of ‘Watch Me". One of the things parents like to do is to watqh their children take their first Expect Ingersoll Telephone Rates To Go Up Again To meet increased operating------ and higher taxes, The Bell TelephoneCompany of Canada will apply to the Board of Transport Commissionersfor authority to increase rates for telephone services, Frederick John­son, president, states m a message toshareholders. The message says higher ratesauthorized last year were based on the cost level existing in 1949. Sincethen, operating costs have moved up­ ward at an accelerating pace.“The combined effect of the two major factors—increased wage costsand higher taxes—would alone make it imperative that we again requestauthority to increase the price of ourservices,’’ the message says.

I sure took a lot of kiddingfrom the fellows when they read it and of course I showed it to them allin my section, but I didn’t mind.Well Tommie, right now we’requite static. . On x>ur front there’slittle or no activity, of course whenwe go into action as a CommonwealthDivision it probably will be a differ­ent story. Since I wrote home lastour work shop has moved and we’re so darn far from the front now wecan’t even hear the artillery any more. Some of the young fellows inthe outfit are getting restless so far back, but it suits me O.K. I don’t careif I see any more Chinks or Gooks(any kind of Korean) or hear anymore battle. We get the occasional air raidalert, mostly at around 3 a.m.. The first couple everyone copped himselfa fox hole, but now it’s just one of those things and no one bothers. Theyare directing their odd raid on rail heads and railway bridges.Almost everyone in the company has been lucky in scrounging a buck-;shee folding cot and sleeping bag from the Yank Marines in Pusanwho were going home on rotation.Together with a mosquito netting which covers the bed, it makes forgood sleeping. The flies and mosqui­ tos are peskier and more determinedthan any I've ever encountered be­ fore. We’re still on American rations and they are really good. We’ve hadchicken and turkey several times and we get plenty of fresh fruit and can­ned fruit cocktail etc. and every other day we have a free issue of twopacks of American cigarettes, fouror five chocoato bars, gum, matchesand every so often razor blades, toothpaste and shave cream and last butnot least we can buy two quarts of Jap beer every day, very reasonablypriced at 20 cents a quart. We're paid in American script(souvenir enclosed) but there’s so darn few things to purchase herethat, by the time we leave here, we should have a fair-sized chunk of thernoola in the old pay book. Well T. R. my sister Maggie saidyou wanted me to write, so I hopewhat little I have said in these few lines in the old shirt-tail Englishstyle will do. , Well Tommie here’s wishing thebest of luck to you and your paper.

Fields Flattened By Violent Storm The country creeks aroundThamesford and district were over­ flowing their banks and the- fieldsstanding in water, and many fields of wheat oats and corn were flatten­ed after Monday’s storm. Trees were blown down in many places; theroad was strewn with fallen bran­ches. telephones were out of order and part of the village was withouthydro for five hours.

There is a well-known farmer inthe Salford area who is suffering, more or less silently, the remarks offamily and friends about teddersand the people who climb them. It seems that the man, about to dosome painting around the second storey of his home, insisted that bewas not the kind of man who needed assistance with such a job. He hoist­ed the ladder, and painted away un­ til he came to a spot that could betterbe reached by standing on a roof edge. As he stepped off the tedder,the wind caught it--and there be was. Well, he called—and he called—and then he called some more; but his wife, her offer of help refused,had retired to her kitchen at the far side of the house and heard nothing.Something over an hour later, be succeeded in reaching a window,kicking in a screen and finally reach­ ing good solid floor. He even man­aged to sneak downstairs - -and if that tedder hadn't fallen on some cfhis wife’s prize flowers, he might never have needed to confess the whole embarrassing affair. inhe GOOD COMPANIONSHELD WIENER ROAST The Good Companions closed theseason with a weiner roast at Ev.Ranger’s home. The husbands wereguests for the evening. Records anddancing provided the entertainment Allie Eckhardt also entertained withhumorous stories and songs. Meet­ ings will be resumed in the fall. Phones Go Dead, Lamps Flash As Bolts Hit Everywhere Some 800 telephones in the dist-1 rict were knocked out of commis-lsion when the storm hit Monday, j At one time, 98 lines were out—[ I some as a result of water in thecables, some as a result of light-j ning.Lightning seemed to be striking; all over the place. It ran in the;wires at Bradys Woodworking es-1 tsblishment, starting a brief blazethat brought Dick Ellis and his boys in. It blasted one of the PUC’s $130 meters at the ColeFurniture plant, and closed the plant for the rest of the day. Itblew a transformer fuse near the Baptist church and left the hospital without power for an hour.Another bolt blew a transformer fuse at Ann and Wonham, spread­ing pieces for many feet. Mrs. Rus­ sell Street and her nine-months oldbaby were in the dining room, when lightning struck a tri-light in the living room, creating a big flashand plenty of smoke. The light was damaged but no one was hurt.Down at New Idea, the heavy downppur—after several similar I downpours during the past few I weeks—caused the undermining ofI the foundation of the front of the' main office, and some beautiful gardens slid gently into the base- jment, leaving a yawning chasm.I Water flooded the basement of ; Macintosh’s, Clark’s Paints, —Ji Beemer’s, and the PUG and Dick ! Ellis helped pump them out. In addition to flattening graincrops the hail also wreaked havoc on local gardens. Lome Moon re­ported every one of his tomatoes bashed to the ground, and AlbertFuller said all ripe raspberries were stripped, and leaf vegetables likecabbage, cauliflower and lettuce, and cucumbers and com were rid­ dled by the icy pellets. He felt thatmarket gardeners probably took quite a beating. My, how grand it is to have some­one saying something nice about oor town, instead of rapping it for thisor that. Ernie Houghton, a well- known former resident, was visitingin town, the George Masons, among other people, and he pulled up to aparking meter, to find he had no small change. Anybody change fivepennies for a nickel, he asked a couple of teds nearby. No, theycouldn't, but the one forked out two pennies. Ana he wouldn’t acceptErnie’s preferred five-cent piece. It shows a great deal for the town, saidErnie, when someone will give a per­ fect stranger the wherewithal topark, and eliminate the chance of him getting a ticket. Ah, me ... it seems our fnendsthe skunks are in the news again. A Canterbury St resident had one as ■star boarder, using the cellar. This didn't particularly appeal to the resi­dent as he was getting no rent, so, armed with a baseball bat, he sail fedinto the cellar, accompanied by a neighbour with a hoe. Our residentclipped the skunk with his bat, stun­ ning him, but not to the extent thathe couldn't get his artillery into ac­ tion. Our friend retired in disorder(he's still in retirement), and the neighbour daring all, moved in withthe hoe to deliver the coup de grace. He did. And he only smells a littlebit...

Maybe stationing, s dummy police cruiser at the foot of the hill isn’t such a dumb idea after all. Well, you say, after it has been standing there for a while the drivers will realize that it’s just a dummy, and thumb their noses at it as they go sailing by. Ah ha, but here’s the trick—just as the boys seem to be becoming a trifle over-confi­ dent, whisk the dummy away, and put a real live cruiser, complete with polieo-there.

To that the bear The frequency with which those violent short­ lived storms have been hitting this area made us begin to wonder whether someone was mad at us or something. But the Met man at Toronto save oh no, there’s nothing personal about it at all; it’s strictly a matter of weather. In the summer it’s warmer and snore moist. As you know, hot air rises, and it takes the moisture with it, and we get clouds. Higher we go, the hot air cools, and pretty soon air is rising and falling at a great clip. So are the drops of moisture. Pretty soon the sky is full of clouds, and when they, and the currents, and the min drops and everything else start bumping against each other, then all h - - - breaks loose. That roughly, is why those little baby twisters. Nothing personal, you see. The more and more we drive on the King’s Highways, the less and less we like it. But stricter licensing of both drivers and ve­ hicles could make it a little more pleasant than the nerve-wrecking experience it generally is. There are hundreds of drivers on the road to­ day who would not be, were there strict physical and ability tests, cars, too. No one wants to deprive anyone of his democratic rights, but no driver should be allowed on the road if he is going to be a menace to himself and others. There seems to be a shocking ignorance of the rules of the road. The other day, for example, the driver ahead stuck his left hand straight out to the left, and moved to the centre of the road. Ah, a left-hand turn, we said, and moved to the right accordingly. But then our driver turned sharply to the right, and our language suited the occas­ ion. There could have been a fatal accident And that sort of thing is happening hundreds of times every day. Cars are not novelties any more, just for joy- riidng; they’re serious business. And the pace is getting faster everyday. To our mind, if a vehicle is not mechanically fit and able to maintain the pace, it should not ibe allowed on the road. If an aircraft cannot meet rigid conditions, it cannot be flown. So it should be with automobiles, for the protection of both the driver, and everyone else on the highway. A way to cutting down our dreadful highway toll would be rigid tests for both driver and car, NOW! Senseless Destruction It’s the habit, and always has been, of the older generation to complain about the behaviour of the young people. Too often they are all lumped together as unruly hooligans, which is very unfair to the vast majority of young citizens. High spirits and unlimited energy are theirs by right, but the outlets they seek for the same often con­ flict with the rights of others and with we have come to think of as decently controlled behaviour. A case in point in our town is the thoughtless and ruthless vandalism that has made the flagstaff in the Memorial Park useless on more than one occasion. The cenotaph there was erected by the Lady Dufferin Chapter of the Imperial Order Daughters of the Empire after the First World War, so that on days of rejoicing or memoriam it might proudly bear our flag. Originally a senior Scout was the flag’s caretaker and he undertook to see that it was flown on these days. But often it was found that the ropes had been interfered with and thrown off the pulley, making it imposs­ ible to hoist the flag. It’s a difficult matter to remedy, for the staff is both high and slender; a dangerous job for anyone to tackle. No one cares to take the risk involved, although someone always has, tharfks to their courage and patriotism. Later a member of the Legion volunteered to take over the custody of our emblem, and until recently the ropes were left alone. Now it’s the same story over again. The cenotaph’s there, so are the staff and ropes and pulley. The custodian is still willing, but he is helpless because of some­ one’s silly action. Surely the most uninhrbi^ and mischievous youth might be expected to show some consider­ ation for a structure that was erected to display his country’s flag, and to commemorate the brav­ ery of other young Canadians who gave up their liberty and their lives that we might retain ours. Vandalism is always to be regretted and con­ demned. To destroy for destruction’s sake is the mark of the beast; a form of insanity too much in evidence in these so-called enlightened days. It should be severely punished. —EVELINE A. LONG Notes On The Editor's Pad George Lockhart and Cec Smith are back from their.annual trip to Temagatni, and naturally we expected our annual fish story. Well, said Cec, they were sorry, but they didn’t have one this time, though they almost did . . . George was trol­ ling, with about 300 feet of Monel metal line out, when something that felt like a four-pounder struck. George started playing with it, 'but there was a little bend in the line, and at that point, it broke. But our fishermen were’nt deterred. Back they went for another line, and began circ­ ling, and trolling the same area as where the trout, carrying 300 feet of line, was hooked. Fin­ ally George hit something, and he began to reel it in slowly. Up to the top of the water it came, and there, resting on George’s hook, was the other line. Gingerly he reeled in, only to have the line slip gently back into the depths. Once again they tried, and once again they hooked the line, only to have it slip off. Again they tried, but to no avail ... So, reports Cec. there is no fish story this year, but if anyone catches a four-pound lake trout with a 300-foot trailing aerial, he’ll know who got it first.

I can foresee great difficulties aheadof our Town Council should they be asked to provide sewer extensions andwater mains outside of the Corporatelimits, particularly as adequate facili­ ties have already been built at greatcost within the Town, and more parti­ cularly as, from recent press notices,ratepayers are begging for a few hun­ dred feet of water mains on VictoriaSt. west and on King St. east to supplynew homes being built in these areas. I also believe that if our sewerage sys­tem is to be extended, that extension should take in existing areas withinthe Town’s boundaries which have been by-passed for lack of funds butwhose property holders are already helping to pay for the system, to theextent of seven mills on the tex rate, without receiving any of its advan­tages. We who do not have sewers will insist that future additions to thesystem must be made within the Cor­ poration. Finally can we not ask the Board toreconsider its decision and in this in­ stance build the school where it will bethe greatest advantage to the greatest number of people, for in the final an­alysis buses will bring the pupils from the rural and other areas to a school either inside or outside of Ing­ ersoll, while the students who live inIngersoll, and who form the big ma­ jority, must of necessity walk.In conclusion, Mr. Editor, may I thank you for presenting these "viewsthrough the medium of your valuable paper and may we hope that those Inauthority will consider carefully their MOUNT ELGIN By Mia* Bertha Gilbert The Misses Louise and Marie Flem­ing are holidaying at Dexter.Miss Nancy Jolliffe spent the past week with her cousin, Miss Lor­raine Flanders, Dereham Centre.Lois and Ross Jolliffe are holi­daying at Woodam.Mr. Thomas Ritchie of Montreal, is visiting his son, Elmer Ritchie a nd family.Miss Joyce Smith has returnedfrom a visit with Mr. <and Mrs. M.

First may I draw to your attentionthe fact that for 50 years Ingersoll has maintained a population in excess of5000 people in an area large enough to more than adequately accommodatetwice that number. The writer can well remember when, as a member ofthe Town Council, we maintained 68 miles of streets within the confines ofthe Town. Several new streets have been added in the Kensington Parkarea and we can assume that we now have, at least, 70 miles. These 70 milesprovide living space for much less than 100 persons per mile which is agreat deal less than average for urban areas. Our forefathers envisioned anIngersoll much larger than it is todayand the Corporate limits were extendedprior to 1905 to allow for its expan­sion. We have not measured up totheir expectations and have todaylarge pieces of open space within theTown limits. These open spaces con­sist of 17 farms varying in average from market garden size five to 15acres, and dairy farm size from 17 to 115 acres, as well as large tracts ofvacant and idle land between Thames St. and Wonham in the southwest scc-‘ion, large open spaces to the east of the business section in the King andHarris St. area; likewise large acre­ ages in the Oxford Avenue area to thewest of Thames St. North and farm­ land adjacent to the Kensington Parksub-division. I would like to include Victoria Park which of late yearsseems to be neither ornamental or use­ ful other than for one day’s racing ora two day Fair. All or any of these locations would I am sure make an ex­cellent school site, with sufficient acreage to meet departmental de­mands. From this long preamble may I makemy point by suggesting that surely with all the space available by pur­chase or arbitration it should still bepossible to erect the Area CollegiateInstitute within the confines of the A tasty dish prepared with ease, 1$ one that starsCanadian cheese.

Barker Yes, folks, it’s plain to see whymy slogan is ‘iPlant a tree today.” because very few of us esaped thedamage done by the very high winds of the last tiwo weeks. If your tree was not blown down then your fav­orite plant was likely blown over and now that the -Regal lily is at its bestthere are a few that should be staked up. I think just now most gardens are aglow with climbing roses andwe are being well rewarded for the little trouble they give us. What is more beautiful just now that some tall delphinium and regallillies, surely two wonderful flowers to have in any garden. If you will kindly give me a callI will gladly advise you as to .where to get some Regal bulbs this fall,no garden should be without them. Vegetables are in full swing nowand keep planting for a continuoussupply. I have some new Day lillies thatare quite nice and I believe they are coming to the front very fast. Iris can be planted now. Get a nice variety, you will never be sorry.Dahlias want well watering now and lota of fertilizer at this time of theyear.

RANGE on this Beautiful this last word in cooking BUT We stiU have pre-tax price of You see about three kinds of traf­fic along the old sUge-coach trail through Woodstock these salubrioussummer days, says a story in The Winnipeg Free Press Weekly PrairieFarmer.There are the hurry-up-to-nowhere tourists, of course, swooshing on to Detroit or Toronto or other mad met- ,ropolis to run up an overdraft in ; parking charges. 1 They scoot east or west withscarcely a thought for this famed county that has produced AimeeSemple Macpherson, the Lorrimer , brothers, moat of the Sutherlands,,the Zorra tug-of-war team, the i Birchall’s hanging and some of the > world’s finest Holsteins.More significant are the almost un­ceasing echelons of farm trucks, , piled as high as the C.N. bridge with (sacks of rich feed, tons and thou- , sands of tons for Oxford’s tidy dairy ^Pouring into Woodstock, Ingersoll and other shipping points all morn- ing are jeeps, vans and stake trucks,loaded to the limit with milk and cream from one of Canada’s finestmilk producing regions. Dundas street, at such times, canbe as choked with traffic as the roadto Falaise during the Battle of Nor­ mandy.Oxford right now has 800, yes 800, pure-bred Holstein herds* It’s thetraditional Oxford cow with a magni­ ficent record of achievementSome Guernseys are coming in now but Dr. G. N. Bell, the agriculturalrepresentative here, suggests this doesn’t represent a changeover. Hol­steins have been getting preUy ex­pensive and some grade cow ownerslooking for improvement, have gone out and bought Guernseys.Right east of town is a monumentto Snow Compass, a producer that brought a world championship toCanada and listing fame to T. R- Dent.Among well-known Oxford pro­ ducers who’ve done well in the bigshows are G. R. Hoke, Curries; Doug­ las H. Hart, R.R. 6, Woodstock;Bert Thornton and Son, Thamesford; Charles Downing, Beachville andalso Harold Pearce and James Jack-son and Son, both of Springford, south on the edge of the tobaccobelt There are many other herds­ men with fine records who arc not normally exhibitors.This Guelph grey loam soil normal­ly enjoys ample moisture and thous­ ands of miles of farm tile provide ad-quate drainage. Mr. Bell says it's marvellous pasture and fanners havebeen keen to improve it. Drainage is so important two Dellers plantsare busy turning out tiles at Browns­ ville and Norwich.Pasture fertilizer is maintained too with such support for products fromplants at Ingersoll (Stone’s) and Norwich (Witt’s).Oxford had the first grass field day in Canada five years ago andlast year they had the first grass si­ lage day. Now everyone in Ontariowho feeds stock is talking grass si­lage. There are plenty of old, round, up­right concrete silos around Wood- stock but seme other districts are be­ginning trench silos. A silo 45 feet high and 12 feet wide will hold 100tons of silage, which is probably av­ erage. A silo 14 feet across willhandle 140 tons of grass and ma­ terially extend the pasture season.Most Oxford farmers have bank barns but some producers have re­modelled interiors. There are now some big pen barns in which cowshave freedom of the place. There's deep straw litter and usually earth floors. With this type of barn there’s amilking parlour. Cows are moved in four at ■ time, and fed as they're ma­chine milked. Milk goes direct frommachines through pipes to cooling rooms.Alfalfa and ladino clover with or­ chard grass and other grasses aremost common pastures. Blue grass comes of its own accord. In the hayfield alfalfa and red clover are seeded with some brome and timothy.Oxford has healthy marketing or­ ganizations. The Oxford FarmersCo-operative Produce Co. is a $3,000- 006 business. There are 14 growerassociations. Strongest of these is thd OxfordFruit Co-op which has 165 apple growers as members. They havegrading, storage and selling facilities at Burgeasville and Woodstock hadthe first rental lockers in Canada. . This is old apple country, withMacintosh, Spies, Greenings and Bal­dwins predominating. Much of themarketing success is accredited toGeorge Laird, who managed the co­op for nearly 20 years. He retiredtwo years back and Hector Aitchesonis now manager.I met a gentleman named Ed Suth­ erland in the London Free Pressbranch office and asked him about Reginald Birchall’s demise. Thatoccasion (1890) had considerable so­ cial significance and f<w years after­wards old timers would -exhibit a yard or two of hemp which they saidwas used at the party. It must have taken miles of rope to hang the aris-tucratic rascal who had done in a number of young Englishmen whowanted to farm in Canada.Mr. Sutherland says you don’t hear so much about the hangingthese <|gys. I walked by the market square and there was what appeared1 to be a grim gallows there, with a marked mentioning an historical ex­hibit ' 1 Closer examination revealed" that: this was not a noose at all, but rather a well-preserved neckyoke such aspioneers used for their oxen. It may be well that Birchall andhis deeds are almost forgotten and when people think of Oxford they seeit more as a land of milk and money with a Holstein for its monument.J. A. M. Cook.
