From Vancouver we followed the Long- heed Highway through the rapid- ly growing municipality of- Burn- aby. Huge stumps in a few places are all that remain of the giant trees that once covered this area. There are stands of younger trees. and most of the homes are sur- rounded by trees. flowering shrubs and lawns. Yellow broom. brought many years ago from Scotland. is used extensively with other flow- ering shrubs for decoration. Across Burnaby and beyond it has taken possession of many waste areas and filled them with its glorious colour. Its growth was much more vigorous and taller than that of its near relative. the gorse. that we have seen on the moors of Scotland. As we neared Malllardvllle we passed the great Fraser Mills. with their booms of Immense logs. along the shore of the Fraser. The Lougheed Highway turned north through Essondale. the large men- tal hospllal farm. famous for its prize winning and high record llolsieln cattle and outstanding Clydesdale horses. Our attention was drawn to a remarkable stone wall across the front of this hos- pital property. This had 'heen built many years ago. without mortar. by an old master mason. a patient who died before it was completed. His part stands as ly nations There is always the threat of over-production, he says. Viewed as a whole though. he thinks the mink ranching picture looks good That. mink account for nual volume of furs at retail. In the United States ranchers who know how to produce fine quality mink are making money Being good businessmen and perhaps for- occasionally ask themselves this question Can mink continue to be the number one fur of American women? How long will it be until some other fur takes the lead? As all fur farmers know there have been cycles when first one fur then another ride larlty.. - NEWSY NOTES - By J. A. Clerk.

O O A There was good farm land around Port Coqultlam and along the 'Arterial Lougheed Highway which follows the north shore of the Fraser River to Agassiz. ex- cept for a short detour. through- out the length of Nlcomen Island. between Dewdney. and Deroche. There are many bridge: on this great highway: the one across the Pitt River was so long that we thought we were crossing the Fraser. however. after we had driven through Pitt Meadows and came to Haney we saw that the Fraser River was still south of us. It was at I-Ianey on Sunday, June 21st that the Maple Ridge Senior-Junior High School. valued at S500,000.00 was burned. This was a 24-room school with 1200 pupils. Nine hundred of these had written their end-of-the-term examinations which were burned. Word has since been given out that. the teachers had taken rio- isils of the exams home so that they will not have to be rewrit- ten. 0 o 0 From 1-laney the highvvay fol- lows along close to the Fraser through Albion, Whomock to Rus- kin at the west end of another long bridge across the Stave Riv- er.

A short distance from the Slave bridge we came to Silverdzile. a fruit and vegetable centre. with many prosperous homes along the way to Mission City. On a site overlooking this town there are mer foxmen, however. they must now two mission schools. one for Indian boys and one for Indian girls; these stand on the original site of the former Indian Mls-j slon. that gave its name to the town. This was about midway to Hope or half way up the Lower Fraser Valley. We turned to the the Mission Bridge to Matsqul. I Iiuy out of the windrow last. the power ialce-elf.

The farm we visited there had several clear mountain streams following swiftly over stones and boulders. It was diffi- cult to believe that salmon every year pass that way to their spawning pools, but the soothing pleasant sound of rushing water could be heard both without and within the white farm cottage.

They live in snotheg white cottage up , the side of a bill that slopes to the west. There were excellent crops on the level meadows and a silo had been filled with all- alfa. The hillside pasture was well watered and there was an abund- ant growth of white clover and pasture grasses.
