HENSALL COUPLE TO CONTINUE
TOUR IN BRITISH COLUMBIA
(This is the fifth in a series of
articles by Mr. and Mrs. E. A.
Noakes, Hensall, of places they
are visiting.)
March 15: This past week in
Santa Clara Valley has r been
cloudy and wet, much needed for
the orchards and farms in the
foothills, so I have been "hugging
the shoreline", so to speak. How-
ever, I have been taking jaunts
out around the orchards odd days.
I noticed that one man had been
irrigating to hasten the growth of
the cover crop. They grow a mix-
ture of mustard and broad beans,
and when it grows to about two
feet, they use a caterpillar trac-
tor and one-way disc to work it
into the soil. They also spray the
crops before blossom time.
The large flock of robins that I
saw awhile back have all gone
and the Bartlett pears are coming,
into bloom. I took another look
at the "flea market" and the "go-
kart" races, also had another day
at the Shopping Centre. Not a
bad way to spend a wet day. The
stores are packed full with Easter
goods. It gives a fellow an idea
what he might get the little women
for Christmas.
March 20: We had been hoping
to go to San Francisco, and yes-
terday being a sunny day we
took off. We went by way of the
foothills, as we wanted to see as
much of the country as we could.
Blyth Fair
Sponsors Dance
A successful dance was sponsor-
ed by Blyth Agricultural Society
last Friday evening. Garnet Far-
rier's orchestra supplied the mus-
ic.
Past President William Gow had
donated a registered heifer calf
from his accredited herd on which
tickets had been sold, and the
lucky ticket drawn at the dance
was held by Boyd Taylor, RR 3,
Walton. The ladies' committee had
donated an all -wool blanket. The
lucky ticket for the blanket was
held by Mrs. Leonard Archambault,
RR 1, Auburn.
At a meeting of the ladies' com-
mittee a sale of home-made bak-
ing was arranged for Saturday af-
ternoon, April X15, at 3 o'clock, in
Arnold Berthat's Shop. Donations
for the sale will be gratefully ac-
cepted.
Jr. Institute
And Farmers
Meet in SDHS
The April meeting of Seaforth
Junior Farmers was held on Tues-
day at the Seaforth District High
School. The meeting opened with
the roll call, answered by sixteen
members.
Jack Broadfoot, Bruce Papple
and Bob Fotheringham were nom-
inated to be in charge of the ev-
ents for field day for the Seaforth
club. Bob Fotheringham and Jack
Broadfoot and Jack Crozier were
on a panel to answer questions
other members asked about hand-
ling seed grain. The meeting dis-
cussed whether it would pay to
sow registered seed instead of
commercial seed.
Junior Institute Meeting
The Seaforth Junior Institute's
April tneeting was held at the
same time. The meeting was op-
ened by singing the Institute Ode,
followed by the Mary Stewart Col-
lect and Lord's Prayer. The roll
call was answered by how each
was April -fooled, with 15 members
present.
Linda Papple gave the motto,
entitled, "Members' Responsibili-
ties," and two poems were read
by Freda Hunt, The topic was
making Easter bonnets and a sing-
song was.,en,joyed.
.Joint Meeting
The joint meeting was conduct-
ed by Jack Crozier who- showed a
film telling about the Junior Farm-
er Camp where the delegates
learn how to be leaders in their
own club. .
Following the film, Ken Papple
gave the club paper. The Junior
Institute members modelled the
Easter hats they had made. Re-
creation was conducted by Mac
Stewart and Bill Strong.
Passing through Freemont, we
noticed the pear orchards in full
bloom and the apricot trees in
green leaf. We are heading along
the hills which are so green, and
through Palo Alto, then through
Los Altos (these must be Spanish
names). The scenery is just won-
derful and I might add this is the
older section of Northern Califor-
nia, Where the bulldozer has not
ruined its beauty. We. passed by
Stanford Veterans' Hospital, a
beautiful place, the grounds cov-
ering acres. Also the University
is close by; a large herd of Guern-
sey cows across the road. Next
we pass through Menlo, where
homes cost $60,000 or $75,000 -some
with bomb shelters that cost about
$3,500. Redwood City comes next;
a lot of people commute from
here to work near 'Frisco. Now we
go through Belmount Hills and on
to the Bay Shore Freeway. In the
distance can be seen the houses
built on the side of the hills.
Until now we have been. taking
our time, but now we are on an
eight -lane highway and a sign says
60 miles an hour, or else! '.I -sup-
pose it means, or else lose a fen-
der. We pdss Frisco airport and
the Hilton' Hotel, the Cow Palace
on our left, and the new Stadium
the Dodgers built. Now we are
approaching the factories and steel
mills, where they make parts for
most everything.
Into Frisco we go! This is an
old city with narrow streets, but
the highways in and out are all
overhead; some are three high.
Somehow we manage to get down
to Fisherman's Wharf -now to find
a parking place! Up a side street
someone is pulling away, and we
just make it to park when it starts
to rain. After lunch we walk on to
the wharf and through the novelty
shops. It is getting quite foggy, so
the boats are tied up in the bay.
Chinatown is next and it is rain-
ing harder than ever. We have to
be satisfied to see' it -through the
car windows. Bumper to bumper,
we go up hills, and down. When I
was here before I thought there
were only two ways to go -up or
down - but there are three: up,
down and one-way. I have never
seen such a place for one-way
streets, that all seem to go in
the same direction and end up in
Chinatown. Since we had come
down somehow, we get out of this
circle and go up some of these
streets that seem to be about 45
degrees. There is the cable car,
so we follow it and come to a bet-
ter part of town on Congress
Boulevard. Now to get out of
here! We drive around, shying
away from this one-way "stuff"
till we see a sign: "To Highway
101." I believe they can think of
more ways of losing a person in
this place than any place I know.
Well, we are on our way, so who
cares if we got lost. On to High-
way 101, up and over the city, six -
lane highway, one-way of course,
but we have three lanes to go in
and the air is getting better all
the time. After driving for 10
miles we come to the industrial
section, and the traffic is not too
heavy. We can take a little time
now to look around. There is quite
an assortment of plants - G.E.,
Philco, steeu pipes, etc,, body shops
and many others too numerous to
mention.
A little further on is Moffat Field
Airport, a very large place. Soon
we approach Lockheed Missile
plant, a sprawling. plant out in the
open. I just noticed it hasn't rain-
ed here, the pavement is quite dry.
We turn off here more or less into
the country, where the grass is
green and the air is pure. A few
dairy farms here and there, and
now we are in Sunnyvale market
gardens, where the soil is black -
cabbages about ready to use; late
strawberries in bloom, but there is
not too much of this. Houses are
in the making, getting closer; grad-
ers are cutting across here and
there -a -all the good land being gob-
bled up by real estate, Progress
they call it! To me it looks like
starvation for the generations to
come.
This is March 25 and our Visit in
California is fast coming to its
end. By the time this is in print,
we expect to be in British Colum-
bia. We have enjoyed our holiday
very much, thanks to our daugh-
ter, son-in-law and family, who
made it possible. California has a
nice mild climate -sunny and very
pretty, and everything must come
to an end. Like the robins, we
must be going. More later.
