Lot 7. was. rec- r-ntly, the scene of n. happy gath- ering when four generations of the family of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Ern- est McGregor gathered to celebrate with them. their fiftieth wedding anniversary. A special feature of the evening was the presentation of a. sum of money, nocompanied by an address. to the bride and Irocxn of years. Although completely taken by surprise, the couple. .ln n few wcll chosen words. expressed thqlr thanks. A three tier wedding cake topped by a miniature bride and groom centred the dining mom table and was cut tn the traditional manner. A buffet luncheon was served by tho hostess assisted by Mrs. James lteilly and Mrs. Melvin Reilly.

Young pigs. can also bo fed on pasture of rape and Fnll rye.

Mr. RC Parent. Experimental Farm Superintendent, spoke brief- ly. and lnvlted his hearers to visit thc Fnrm, and see potato experi- ments conducted there. He advised rotntlon of crops ‘and barnyard manure for good potatoes.

Mr. Black lntroducted Mr. Isaac Tuplln as a graduate of '1Yuro Ag- ricultural College and going on to MacDonald this Fall to complete his mnstcr‘: degree. Mr. Tuplln gave n summary of the expert. ments on pasture plots on the Johnstone farm.
