We have seen a great many interesting: thine-s but the weather has been very bad, interfering with some of our travels. It seems doubtâ€" ”ul that the Workington plowing: match can be held on schedule, which will he a disappointment to all of us. Fuel is very scarce and in many places there has been no heat in our rooms. But we’ve had wonderful hospitality everywhere we’ve been and should not complain. After our stay in southern Eng- land we left London for York. Norâ€" mally it’s about a four hour ride by train but again the cold delayed us On arrival we went straight to the National Institute of Agricultural Engineering: at Askham Bryan, four or five miles froin York. This build- il‘f: W213 formerly an agricultural school and farm of 400 acres but was taken over for agricultural reâ€" marz-li in 1042. Here they test all kind..- of farm machinery and design many new types. We were all interested in their three-furrow. one-way plow. This plow has both right and left hand bottoms. When turning at. the bowl- land. the plowman simply trips a lever, the plow half rotates and he goes back the same furrow. This eliminates dead furrows iii a field where not necessary for drainage“ Harvester for Sugar Beets A sugar beet harvester is another implement of their own design. A large acreage of stYQ‘Etl' beets is grown iir England and this machine pulls. tops and elevates the beets into a cart or truck, thus saving a great deal of hard work. We returned to the Institute the next day. The ground was frozen too hard for outdoor demonstrations, so we were shown some interesting films on British plowing: That afternoon we looked around York, one of the oldest cities in Em:- laird. It still is surrounded by a heavy stone wall. “'0 visited Yorkâ€" miiister Cathedral and here again we saw some of the. finest architecture in the world. The Cathedral‘s stain- ed glass windows are said to be un- excelled anywhere. The Edinburgh train was hours late. due to the cold and we (lid not reach the Scottish capital until mid- night. We went to bed in the North British Railway hotel without sup- per. Next morning: we were met by T. B. Manson of the Department of Ag:- riculture for Scotland who showed us a part of the city and after lunch we attended the International Rue-try match between Scotland and Wales. They take their football seriously here for despite the cold weather and bad roads the attendance was 50,000. The rules are altogether different front Canadian rules but we found the game interesting. Scotland was defeated 22 to 8 but in spite of the defeat there was a big time in the old town that night for all the Welsh and most of the Scottish players were in our hotel. Next morning we attended service in St. Cuthbert’s church in Edin- burgh. Some of us had been anxious to go to St. Giles where the Rev. John Knox used to preach but it was closed for a while. In the afternoon we were taken for a drive through sorrre of the bet- ter farming- sections arid we had an excellent view of the Forth bridge, a wonderful piece "of engineering, in- tact in spite of the blitz, Later we went through Edinburgh Castle and saw the 1014-1018 Scottish War Mc- morial situated within its walls. On the Monday morning we mot- ored 60 miles to Perth where we watched the judging of the Aberdeen Angus at the annual show and sale. After lunch we visited the farm of Mr. Thomas Clark of Muirton where we saw some excellent Clydesdales. one beim: Muirton Monarch, Grand Champion Stallion and winner of the Cawdor Cup at. Glasgow in 10l5, the last time shown. Next we went to the dairy farm of the Lord l‘l‘ovmt of Perth, Urc Primrose. We were entertained at tea in the lovely home and Ill th: evening we were guests of the Pro- vost arid city magistrates at a civic dinner in the Station Hotel. Later we attended a “brains trust" in the city hall conducted by the young farrncrs‘ club in which our manager. George \Valdic. took part.. A Farm. in Fifcshirc Tuesday morning we drove up to Fifesliirc to see one of the larger farms in Scotland, that of Mr. Geo. Clark. Nether Pitlacliie. The farm contains about 1.000 acres, 600 be- ing sown in sprzng crop annually. Mr. Clark is not a dairy farmer but t'ocds about 300 to 5:00 steers yearly. These are purchased in Ireland at between 12 to 1:: cents per pound. He docs not consider there is very much profit in feeding cattle at pre- sent prich but. firids it necessary in order to utilize. the straw to make manure. Most of the cattle are fin- ished in the stable and marketed; the balance are put on grass. They would weigh from 13 to 15 cwt. each. This farm produces about 125 acres of potatoes each year as well as a lot of turnips and about ‘30 (arc.- of ;ii:291‘ beet: \rlu‘h fairnicl‘: in scurr- ;Sâ€":tlei:_ 11“;- tczrzi‘clled t The potatoes are said mostly llll.l.. i i ONTARIO x\x«Km.5u>x‘.r'offww'-§f\-\‘\:~(~\\v‘-¢<'\\'--~-,~--\y w.........v_......._.w... .., R fl. ‘ camoua‘““” assure "it/WU inniiiurtS RIMES issuunir for seed and are quite a profitable crop. avcrau'inu' as much as 12 tons per acre. We were surprised to find that most of the potatoes are picked by hand. thus requirincr a lot (if extra labor h for some reason they arc not satisfied with the potato diggers. Sixteen men are employed vcarly. with some casual labor dur- in}: the harvest months. It seemed evident that the labor situation is not as acute as it is in Canada. Perth Angus Sale After lrnch we returned to Perth and attended the sale of the Angus cattle. Between four and five hurrâ€" dred passed through the ring, aver- aging about one a minute. The Grand Champion Bull sold for 5.800 e‘uineas (321,476) for export to South America. The reserve outl was purâ€" chased by Mr. F. W. Hardier of the US. for 4.600 Q'uineas (310.412). With the exception of a few of the tops, prices were lower than we ex- pectcd. We drove from Perth to Glase‘ow this morning through heavy snow and over very slippery roads. At lunch we were the guests of the Scottish Coâ€"operative Wholesale AS- sociation. one of the largest coâ€"op~ eratives in the world. It was organ- ized about 100 years ago lry a few farmers. They handle or manufac- ture almost every commodity that’s on the market. In the past the com- pany was noted for its fine horses and while many have been replaced by trucks, they still have about 100 left. This afternoon we are to take the train for Car-lisle and then we're to go to \Vorkineton where the plow- ini: match is to be held weather perâ€" mittine‘. After that it will be over to Ireland for some new adventures. “Why are yqu trying." stupid ass.” “But why are you crying?" “Well, but what am I?" A Danish correspondent has intimâ€" ated that the United States may buy Greenland for $1 billion, but there is still time for any interested reader of this column to make a better offer.
