Department of Agriculture "V '- '- 5'-W"-I 1 p is one A Distinguished Visitor The visit of Lord Lovat, Chief of the Clan Fraser, who attends inday'a Scottish Gathering at Montague. is of particular interest to our farm people. Lord Lovut is the owner of upwards of 100,- 500 acres of land in Scotland, and of the world's foremost breeders of Sharthprn cattle. An- imals from Lord Lovat's estate -lave been shipped to all points avhere high merit and quality is recognized. Shorthorn breeders of Prince Edward Island, as well as iur farmers generally. will no ioubt be on hand at the Scottish Gathering to give this outstanding scottish farmer a royal and en- .huslastlc welcome. And The Raina Came The rains, which arrived during he past few days. have been of nestlmsbie value to field crops. it is a lazing how quickly our Prince" E ward Island soils become mrd after rain. As a matter of ilct as the hot weather approaches we could stand a shower of rain rvery other day. The roccnt sliow- r-rs have made a marvellous im- provement in the appearance of the crops and the strawberry growers, particularly, will beivery thankful as it extends the season on this delicious fruit and ex- pands its production. A good dcal of hay was saved before the last showers, but in any event the cleansing effect on the hay crop will improve its liuallty for saving. incidentally there are some parts of the Prov- ince, cast and west. in which the hay crop is not particularly prom- ising, and no doubt in these areas the additional moisture will be M.-clved with gratification. In the rcntral part of the Province the hay is very heavy. Some of the new meadows have gone down iuldiy, and it will require careful saving practises in order to con- serve the fullest food value in the roughage. Potato crops are gen- .-rally promising. and many pro- ducers are already using the early planted tubers. The season generally for garden truck and flowers is earlier than usual and delicious new venet- ables. pens, beets. etc., are now appearing on domestic tables.

Junior Cluba Junior Club work began on Prince Edward Island in 1922 with the formation of the Pioneer Ayr- shire l3oys' Breeding Club. This Club was organized through the efforts of the Ayrshire Breeders. Department of Agriculture and with the assistance of the banks who gave credit to the boys for the buying of heifers. By 1926 five I-lelfcr Clubs had been organized and during lhati year six Swine Clubs were organ- ized with a membership of almost 200. Two boys from the Pownal Swine Club competed in the Na- tional Competition at the Royal Winter Fair. During the next few years Heif- er Clubs were being replaced ny Calf Clubs and from 1931 Calf Clubs only were organized. In 1935 there were twenty-five Calf Clubs and four Poultry Clubs in operation in the Province and in that year girls' Club work was also started when fourteen Clubs were organized. In file period from 1935 to 1946, there was a steady decrease in the number of Junior Clubs in operation. The decrease in the latter part of this period is due to the Second World War. but from that time until the present Junior Club work has shown a marked increase. In 1951 we had a total of 120 Club: in operation in this Prov- ince. These Clubs comprised a total of 1595 bays and girls be- tween the ages of 10 and 21 years. Club News A tour made by lhrre Garden Clubs from Soutiiport, Alexandra. and Mt. Mellick, and Alexandra Calf Club was held Monday, July 7. A visit was made to the George Johnson's Market Garden, North River Road, the Experimental Sta- tion Science Lab., Arthur Vcssryls. Lewis Bros. York. and Guy Rodd's. Brockley. The Club members and leaders learned many useful and interest- ing things and appreciated lhc kindness and hospitality shown them. The tour ended up at Bracklcy Beach with swimming and sports. A contest .was held during their visit at the Experimental Station. in which members were asked to identify various trees and flowers. The group led by Donnie Smith. Pownai, won the contest making 65 points. i Poultry Club News On Thursday evening the Marsh Poultry Club held a judging class Neighbours Y Rulramah Boheinfeld Frank TEACHER SIIORTAGE AND GOOD HUSBANDS One lovely summer's day re- cently, I was lucky enough to come upon a rural school trustee in full flight on the subject of the tea- cher-shortoge. And his speech was as flevourful as our own Island strawberryi He certainly was tak- ing the mental health way-talk- lng out his frustration and exas- peration at the entire situation and facing reality squarely! What called forth his most pungent to was that he had let. an adjoining dis- trict take away a promising tea- cher from under his very nose. But she was a neighbor's daugh- ter; the school was a hard one, and he had hesitated to coax her for fear that she wouldn't like the job. He is a man after my own heart. and if he reads this column, he will know that he is its inspiration. For I yearned to help him in his quest for a teacher, and I thought deeply and discovered an aspect of the matter, that may bring young teachers flocking into the rural schools! It had often struck me as I traveled through the country-side and became acquainted with men and women on farms, in stores. lunchrooms. gas stations. and tourist resorts, how many of these men and women were working to- gcther as equal partners, and how many of the wives were cx-school teachers. Ill spite of their double Jobs they seemed contented and relaxed and even found time. in most cases, to take an active part in community affairs. What; was the secret? I asked myself. And now, I know. These fine and ell- crgetic women have good husa hands! And they found them via the rural school! For whatever the story is in town, this seems true in the coun- try - a school teacher in a rural district has first choice when it comes to husbands. Watch the young men at the dances! The word. "school-marm" certainly doesn't seem to frighten them off. Teacher has more partners than she can dance with and assured- ly will have more than one pro- posal. If then, my friend the school trustee, and all other trustees, in- stead of worrying about better teaching conditions. extra supple- ments and improved housing facilities, let it be known that their schools were short cuts to a. good marriage. would there be any trouble getting teachers? Because, after all, what do young women want most. in 1952 just. as in 952? You all guessed right. the first timel With few exceptions women want a kind and steady husband to help them bring up their children and a good compan- ion to stand by them in sickness and old age. If occasionally seems otherwise, is it not perhaps because the women have been dis- appointed in the basic needs men- tioned? How does rural school teaching help a girl not only to get a bus- band. but a kind steady one? Who else as well a teacher in a rural community can learn to know each young man, his character, his prospects. his family? If she does not choose wisely, she simply doesn't want to. And as we have seen, she generally wants to. . . . We noted before the large num- bore of former teachers who live rural communities. There is fur- ther evidence of more than over- age good-relationship between them and their husbands in the considerable,percentage that re- turn to teaching after marriage. Out of a list of 208 women teach- it happy and useful lives in their at five cents a word. llrlctly pey- abla in advance. nnmj JIMMYS TAXI - Phone 525. HOWARD MaeINNIl FOOT- WEAR at 175 Queen street.

For the first time in a century wedding bells rang out at a remote church in Dover, England. Built in 1852, the church had never before been the scene of a wedding. 'l'he vicar celebrated the event by presenting the bride with a Bible. At one time pepper was prized above all other species and be- came the most important article of trade between India and Eur- ope. For beauty and fragrance few trees can equal the clove when its rose-pink buds burst into full blossom. An amazing characteristic of the Nutmeg tree is that two spices are found in one fruit, for, with- in the orange-colored husk, the red fingers of the Mace clasp the glossy brown shell of the Nut- meg.
