Haymakers Coming! From Cape Breton

Fifteen haymakers from Cape Rreion are due in Charlottetown on Tliursuiay night. Tiiis number will only partly fill the more than fifty orders for haymakers on file at the National Employ- utr-nt Office. and many farmers

will still face the problem of harvesting the crop without as- sistance.

For the past two weeks the

local Employment Office through its clearance system has been try- ing to secure farm help from the mainland.

in othec years lcmporary work- nrs were usually available tn (tape Brclton and Pictou County but. these sources have been tap- pl-d heavily by the demand for construction workers in Labrador. and for farm help in Ontario.

No men at all could be recruit- cd throumh the National Employ- mrrnt Offltr-e in New Glasgow, and the Sydney office at first re- ported a similar situation.

Later ysrsterday afternoon how- over, the .Sydney Employment Of- fice wired the information that fifteen man would leave for Char- lottetown on Thursday to arrive in this province the same night.

Their nvrlval coupled with the coming or? fifteen full time Ger- man farm workers. reported else- where in rtheae columns will be of definite HIxlISI.8I'IC!Z to Island airl- culture.

were treated to an impromptu con- cert iast night when two members of the Sydney Lilrls Pipe Band. guests at the home of Mr. and Mrs. B. Earle MacDonald, piped and danced for over an hour. The girls showed all the steps of the High- land Fling as well as giving dom- onstrattons of the several reels.

They took turns piping and dancing and spectators found dil- ficulty in deciding at which of them were better. They concluded their concert with Lorri Lovats Lament as they marched up and down the driveway or the Legisla- tive Member's home to a tremend- ous burst of applause irom the motorists who almost. blocked North River Road as they stopped to en- joy the proceedings.

The two girls were is-year-old Vivian Morrison, tltc champion Highland dancer of Cape Breton for the past folir ycam, and 16- yeav-old Vera MacDonald who can

it was interesting to note that in the band the girl pipers wear the Royal Stuart tartan while tho drummers wear that of the Mac- Leods.

Big Demancllior Beuy Pickers

One of' the busiest women in the Provinoe this past week has been Mrs. Emma. (Topsy! Bruce of the Women's Division of the National Employment Office, Charlotte- town. Btrawberry growers in I wide are around the City. with a bumper crop on their hands have swamped the local office with or- ders for pickers.

Within a few days Mrs. Bruce had placed upwards of a hundred women and older girls with grow- ers but the demand for help still rolled in. With no slackening of the demand she sent out a call for the tecn-tigers from eleven years and upwards. and the grow- ers faced with a crisis accepted the youngsters. Over the week-end and through Monday and yesterday the youngsters collected at the local office. and were picked up by trucks and cars and taken to their destlnatioiis. Most of them car- ried lunches. and were in picnic mood as they left the City.

Reports from the growers - who were doubtful of the usefulness of the younger girls at tile outset- are complimentary. Many of them are making upwards of four dol- lars a day. They are paid four cents a box-and they can eat all the strawberries they like; an inducement. not without its at- tractions.

By this week-end Mrs. Bruce tx- pects to have placed two hundred pickers all told. which she feels is her contribution to the relief of the farm-help shortage.

Potato Cull Pile Source Of Infection

"No late blight has been obsel'V- ed in the potato fields of Prince Edward island or Nova Scotia but- the. disease was found on the plants in a cull. pile on the ilth of July," states the Weekly Potato Bulletin. 'tlt is too bad to see it- so early when a little care with the cull piles would have elirriin- ated this source of infection. Farmers should make an immedi- ate check for forgotten ciiii piles and if any are found they should be thoroughly sprayed with 8 chemical top killer or wlthastrong solution of copper sulphate.
