Antique tractor days in
Milton this weekend
The Ontario Agricultural Museum
is celebrating the tenth anniversary
of its Great Canadian Antique Trac-
tor Field Days on July 16 and 17
with a line up of activities not be
missed. The only show of its kind,
this event is devoted to Canadian -
made farm machinery and serves as
a fun -filled lesson on Ontario his-
tory.
Returning, this year is the Farm
Toy Sale and Show, with more than
55 tables of unique farm toys for
purchase and display.
The real life inspiration for these
toys will be on display as visitors
explore one of the largest and rarest
collections of operating steam en-
gines and tractors in the province,
including Ontario's oldest tractor --
a 1911 single -cylinder Fairbanks -
Morse.
Members of The Canadian
Wheelmen will be displaying a
variety of antique bicycles, a new
feature at this year's event. "Co-
mbining a traditional Tractor Show
with attractions of the Museum
leads to an event everybody will
enjoy," Peter Ledwith, Curator of
Collections for the Museum, says.
Family members will get a farm -
style workout by competing in
games and contests including bag -
tying, log -sawing and nail -driving.
Tractor drivers will be tested
through a series of competitions, a
great attraction for spectators.
The Ontario Agricultural Museum
offers a first-hand glimpse into
Ontario's rural and agricultural
history with more than 30 buildings,
exhibits, and displays. Costumed
interpreters, farming projects,
animals and tractor -drawn wagon
rides bring the scenic site to life.
The Museum is located 5 km
west of Milton. Take Highway 401
to Milton and exit at Guelph Line
or Highway 25 north and follow the
signs. The Museum is open daily,
10 a.m. to 5 p.m. through Sept. 25.

celebrating July 16"
Fergus is the
place to be
FERGUS - For the past 49 years,
the banks and braes of Fergus have
resounded to the skirl of the pipes
and the throbbing •of the drums as
anyone with the remotest hint of
"The Scottish" in their veins come
together to celebrate their heritage.
The 1994 Fergus Scottish Festival
is set for Aug. 12, 13 and 14 and
will include Tattoo '94, a traditional
Highland Games, the Scottish Con-
cert, a Kirkin' 0' the Tartan, rugby
tournament, a non -competition day,
a tartan golf tournament and
Strupach.
Grimm plays
until July 23
BLYTH - GRIMM, an
imaginative, energetic play for the
whole family plays at the Blyth
Festival Garage until July 23.
In the land of "Ever" where fairy
tales are born, a catastrophe has
occurred that threatens all who live
there. If the error is not corrected
there will be an imbalance in the
fabric of all dimensions and the
universe will collapse. "Ever's"
only hope lies in Marie. She comes
from "reality" and journeys through
"Ever" to find the staff of Grimm.
Along the way, she meets . all her
favorite fairy tale characters (with a
twist).
The one-hour performances give
people lots of time to catch the
show that is playing at the Festival.
Two matinees are scheduled for
July 16 and 23. For more infor-
mation call the box office at 523-
9300.
