on wegnegday afternoon. Aufl- 18th, a large crowd od men. W0- mm and, children attended the Field Day on the farm of T. Al- bert I-Ilcken at Alliston, P. E. I. These Field Deva are soon-semi by the Division of Illustretiull Stations in order to show farm- ers the results of experiments and bring to them new and usedul knowledge of farm methods.

The women were not only much interested in the First Aid dem- onstration and talk on "Water Safety Measures" bv Mrs. Harry W. Cudimore of Oharlottetowmbut also in the talks on "Chicicerv Management" given by Mir. S. C. Scranton, Dominion Poultry Field- misn and on "Care of Milk Mid Cream" by Mr. H. J. MacDonald, dairy superintendent.

In spite of showery weather, all availed themselves of the oppor- tunlty of touring the fields and of viewing the well-tended rows of horticultural crops. Great interest was shown in the plots devoted to the growing of turnips. beets, cab- bage an beans for seed. Mr. Hicken hed a half acre of the “Chicago Pickling" cucumbers which showed excellent growth and he intends to market the crop at Matthew-Wells Company, Ltd. Charlottetown.

The orchard was of great inter- est to many as much of the light sandy. gravelly soils to be found in this area. are well suited to the production of fruit. The orchard was begun in 1941 and now consists of approximately 90 trees. Mr. Malcolm Reeves oi South/port we: celled upon by m.- W. N. Black, Supervisor of Illust- ration Stations, to explain the principle of grafting and frame working. Mr. Reeves stated that some trees lack winter hardiness or have other faults such as weak crutches. The Antonovka is usually planted because of its winter hardiness or the Hibernal because ofits strong frame. When a tree has become firmly established iiil small twigs and unwanted limbs are out away leaving a bare frame.

A sister ship, the Arras, plied the route inside Halifax Harbor behind the Arleux's protective gate as a water vessel. Both ships were named after famed Belgium bat- tles ln the first world war.

Fishing Experiences

Thanks to Col. held, His Excell- ency said, he had been afforded the use of a jeep and had toured the Province pretty well from one end to the other. It was true. he had had little luck with his trout flailing. but after all, most. of the pleasure in fishing lay in the anticipation and in the uncertainty of the sport. 1f one were to hook a trout every time one cast, the Dleesure would soon become mflmlonfllld. His Excellency said. He had had better luck with his mackerel fishing. however, and he and Lleut-Governor Bernard had caught some "nice mackerel. At the same time, His Excellency pointed out. an amateur could not beat a professional at such s pastime end the two Blscquiere men who had conducted him and the Lieut- Governor to the fishing grounds from imrth Rustico, caught more mackerel than the rest of the party combined.

But he had not spent s great deal of time fishing, w; Exam. filmy said. He had done some oil painting and hadmade a. sketch of the sand dunes neeir Dalvey which he would complete at his studio in Ottawa. He had also done some of the pastoral scenery in other sections of the Province.
