HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Exeter Times-Advocate, 1953-08-06, Page 7Huron County Crop Report By H. R. BAKER Harvesting is in full swing throughout the county and wea­ ther conditions have been ideal for the harvest. Reports for yields have been very favorable and on the average the fall wheat crop is very good. Some farmers report, however, that the wheat sample is smallei’ than anticipat­ ed and lacking somewhat in uni­ formity. Oats and barley are now being cut very rapidly through­ out the county and it is expected that next week threshing will be the order of the day. Almost everyone has finished haying and an unusual supply of hay has been harvested. After­ math is coming on very rapidly and although some pastures are drying up pasture supply is very good for this time of year. Corn is showing excellent growth the past week as well as soybeans and other cash crops. 1 Vote As You Like . . . But Vote Page 7 LONDON, ONT.

Christmas In July "Christmas in July” was cele­ brated by the children of the Exeter playgrounds on Friday afternoon. During the week, Christmas tree decorations were made in arts and crafts classes and four evergreen trees at Community Park were decorated. First prize for decorations went to the 9-11 age group and second prize to the boys and girls from Queen and Victoria Park playgrounds. Stunts were played to start off the afternoon program. As the boys and. girls drew slips of paper from a box, they acted out whatever was mentioned, such as rocking a baby to sleep, pro­ posing to another member of the group (ably acted by Elmer Ince and Jim Russell) and debating on why men are superior to women which brought about con­ siderable heckling by the girls. Each child had brought a wrapped Christmas • gift. They were .passed around a circle to music, as the boys and girls sat on the grass. When the music stopped, the gift held at that moment was the one that was kept. A few faces registered dis­ appointment when the parcels were opened especially Ricky Boyle’s for his gift was a pair of pretty pink plastic bows to wear in his hair. One little girl received marbleg and another a cap bomb, so bargaining and ex­ changing left everyone happy. The children then lined up for a treat of soft drinks donated by Ross Tuckey. So ended Christmas on a warm afternoon in July. Very HENSALL Identical Accidents Occur Two accidents which practically carbon copies of other, occurred over the week­ end.
