farming And W. I. Are Important To England

The following interesting arti- cle was written by Mrs. David Mitchell the former Eleanor Mary Duffy. Mrs. Mitchell and her husband Flight Lieutenant Mit- chel-l are at present living in Loversal, Yorkshire, England, where Flight Lieutenant Mitchell is posted.

Mrs. Mitchell will be remem-

bered by many readers in Char- lottetown during the time she was in charge of the Women’s Page. Mrs. Mitchell's account of English country life will be of great interest to this agricultural province of Prince Edward Is- land. _High standards of farming in the old land and in the new land are similar. The Women’s Insti- tute, of course. always has great reader interest. especially at pre- sent as the convention will be held July 3rd and 4th in the Prince of Wales auditorium. The following is Mrs. Mitchell’s story: It has been repeated and re- written that England’s history can be traced by its buildings, and certainly, the United Kingdom has a carefully preserved and well- beloved architectural heritage that is proving a living and best- selling textbook. Many of these, ﬁnch as Woburn Aibby, or Blen- heim, glamour names in tourist guide books, tend to overshadow the lesser known Halls and Man- ms of the smaller estates. - Not open to the public, these {states still manage comfortably in their first and natural occup- ation, farming. This pattern of England of Hall. Church and Community still continues as it has for centuries, forming the liasic strength of the country’s character. Such a one is ramb- ling Loversal Hall. York-shire home of Captain and Mrs. C.-G.Y. Skipwith.

Four miles from Doncaster, a noisy, rather smokey, industrial Northern town. a busy new high- way passes the village by, but the old road slips back into time, passing the doors of grey stone cottages, skirting the tiny church

tucked away behind farm build- ings, and the Hall screened by an Avenue of stately trees. The tower, of this church dedicated to St. Katherine, is thought to be 12 or 13th century, perhaps ear- lier. Sheep graze in a green play- ing field -beside it and in spring a winding river of daffodils leads to the Georgian facade of the Hall.

The origins of the Skipw-ith family in England begin with the Norman, Robert de Estouteville, Baron of C’ottingha.m, in th e time of the Conqueror. His el-d- est son married the daughter of a great Saxon Thane, and, among other lands had the lordship of Schypwyc, or Sikipiwiiic. The line, taking the Saxon name. has con- tinued unbroken, and today the 12th Bart is Sir Patrick Alexan- der D’Estouteville Skipwith who succeeded his grandfather in 1950.

The family, important in York- sliire’s military and judicial his- tory, is a large one and the Skip- withs of Loversal are a branch of the 8th baronet, Sir Grey Skipwith. With the passing of the 8th baronet, the family, now the Prestwould Skipwiths, gave up the family seat, the historic and beautiful, New-bold Revel, in War- wickshire.

The changing economic trend in agricultural life in Egnland, plus of course the war and tax- es, have all diminished the lar- ger mansions with echoing halls and thousands of acres and park- land. But a healthy outlook still exists for the estate owner who takes a modern pattern of farm planning. This new viewpoint has been a challenge with Captain and Mrs. Skipwith.

Modern thinking, fortiﬁed by improvements in farming effic- iency, and a “do it yourself”, technique, has carried the future of this pleasant hamlet. Hall, an-d tiny chapel-like church. into a new era in British rural life.

The squire, a kindly and astute man, knows a thing or IJWO about mechanized farming. And the

The artist abstracts from the world of reality around him all that he needs of it to intensify his emotional reaction. He takes half an object here, part of a curved outline there and puts them together in no sem- blance of reality as we know it. “A child could do it” says the uninitiiated onllooker, with no un- derstanding, no sensivity. W ell no child in our experience has done it, so far. Try it for your-

Owner of a fine herd of Brit- ish Fresians, Captain Skipwith was a member of the efficient Milk Marketing Board of Great Britain, which has brought so many study groups to England from Countries specializing in dairy products. Used as a model internationally, the Marketing Board, is considered one of the most orderly and wisely organiz- ed of its kind. Captain Sikipvwith is also an active member of the Farmers’ union, (British partner with the Canadian Federation of Agriculture), a member of the Yorkshire Farmers Bacon Fac- tory Management’, and a former member o-f the Yorkshire Coun- ty Agricultural Committee.

Asked if he regared silage as a practical method of winter feed- ing, Captain Skipiwith smiled and explained his own ingenious me- thod using the hardy frost resis- tent kale. “I j-ust plan my crop rotation to keep the kiale fields nearer home now and let the cat- tle feed themselves, guided by electric fences.”. . . . .“But” he added, “I wouldn't recommend it for a Canadian winter.” ,

During the war Mrs. Skipwith, a member of the Women’s Volun- tary Services, was local organizer of Voluntary Services in the area and the Hall became a working depot for dozens of women. Then the 40 roomed house was filled with Red Cross library contribu- tions, blitz clothing, bedding, and at one time four thousand pair of woolen socks!

In 1919 Cap- tain Skip'with’s mother, Mrs. Grey Townsend Skipiwith, was quick to recognize the worthiness of the Institute movement which had started in Canada, and introduc- ed the idea into her own village.
