Eastern and western 4 -Hers exchange visits
Fifteen members of Huron
County 4-11 clubs hosted
visiting Saskatchewan 4 -Hers
recently. They were returning
the hospitality they had just
received on an exchange visit
to the western province.
While the Ontario teenagers
were in Saskatchewan for a
week, they were taken to
points of interest by their host
families, and got together as
a group at a dance where they
were each presented with a

grab-bag of goodies donated
by townspeople and local
businesses. Each received a
white plate depicting Saskat-
chewan's emblem the prairie
lily in bright orange, a
souvenir spoon, a paper knife,
pens, matchbooks and other
mementos.
The 30 4-11ers all flew back
to Ontario together. During
the second part of the ex-
change the 30 had a tour of
different farming operations
in Huron County and a visit to
the Bruce nuclear plant, a trip
to Canada's Wonderland, an
afternoon picnic and games
at Benmiller, and a judging
demonstration and farewell
get-together at Clinton before
the visitors took off for home
on Tuesday.
After visiting the village of
Medstead, Saskatchewan,
(population 250) 16 -year-old
Sharon Thiel returned to her
family's dairy farm north of
Zurich accompanied by her
recent hostess, 15 -year-old
Wanda Jesse. Sharon had
toured a grain elevator and a
Hutterite colony, where she
had been very impressed with
the amount of large, modern
farm equipment owned by the
commune. She visited a dairy
farm and watched 115 cows
being milked in a milking
parlour. (Her father milks 40,
and not in a parlour.)
Wanda, a member of a
homecraft club in Medstead,
was amazed at the size of
Lake Huron. She noted the
bigger Ontario barns, with
boards going vertically in-
stead of horizontally like the
ones in the west, our hotter
climate, and the close prox-
imity of one town and another
in Ontar
Ontarian io. Janet Hoggarth,
16, and her new friend Janice
Sim, 15. voiced their impres-
sions of Frenchman's Butte
and RR 2 Kippen while
Janet's older brother 'Greg
and guest Les Hanson, 15,
also compared notes.
Janice's father raises An-
jou cattle, and Les lives on an
800 -acre mixed farm at St.
Walburg, Saskatchewan.
All agreed there is a big dif-
ference between western and
eastern roads. Those in the
west are narrower, gravelled,
and have deep ditches on each
side. Janet commented on the
number of trucks on the
rougher Saskatchewan roads,
far outnumbering the cars,
and Greg was impressed with
the many trees lining the
roadways.
The easterners saw their
first gopher, and much more
wildlife than here, as nor-
thern Saskatchewan still has
a great deal of rough pasture,
wooded areas, and sloughs
(mud holes surrounded by
trees and brush).
Remarking on the amount
of tile drainage he had seen in
Huron, Le» said 200 acres of
bush remain on his family's
800 -acre farm. "And you guys
pick pebbles that we would ig-
nore " he added.
Janice pointed out that no
corn, beans or targe
quantities of cucumbers are
grown in her home province,
and she has finally seen a real
maple leaf on something
other than Canada's flag. She
also detected a more nasal.ac-
cent in Ontario, citing the pro-
nunciation of her own name.
and the word "land" as two
examples.
Janet believes there is a
better relationship within
families in the west; they are
drawn more closely together
because of the geographical
distance between neighbours
in rural Saskatchewan.

Paradise Hill, stayed with
17 -year-old Al Benning on the
Tom Triebner farm west of
Exeter. He couldn't believe
his eves as he watched 80
bushels wheat per acre being
taken off a neighbouring
farm. That is double the
average western yield of 40
bushels where he lives. He
said Ontario farm operations
are ahead of those in the west,
where the hay harvest is on-
ly beginning now.
Other eye-openers for the
young westerners were
plastic milk bags, the number
of males wearing earrings
here, and the size of Malton
airport. In his opinion
Canada's Wonderland is just
as good as California's
Disneyland.
On his trip west, Al had
been impressed with the huge
combines he had seen on a
Hutterite colony, and the two
swathers and baler for the big
round bales on the Kuypers
farm. He noted the difference
in the price of land in the two
provinces; in Saskatchewan
bush sells for $200 an acre and
broken land for $600. Those
figures would have to be at
least tripled for Ontario.
Al had attended the Lloyd-
minster fair, "much like Ex-
eter's", with the addition of
farm machinery displays and
chuck wagon races.
The Ontario 4 -Hers com-
mented on the number and
size of western mosquitos. "I
think they raise them" Al
said dryly. The westerners
found the heat wave in Huron
comparably unpleasant.
However, for both easterners
and westerners, their stay in
another province was an en-
;cyable and educational
experience.
The exchange was spon-
sored by Open House,
Canada; through the Ottawa
4-H council, which paid all air
fares. In Huron County, in-
dividuals and businesses
which comprise Friends of
4-11 funded the Huron -Bruce
tour, and paid most of the
costs of the visitors' day at
Canada's Wonderland.
Keith and Phyllis Tyndall
were chaperones for the dura-
tion of the exchange, and
hosted the farewell party on
their RR1 Clinton farm.

4-H EXCHANGE - Janice Sim, Saskatchewan, (left) Janet Hoggarth, Kippen, Les
Hanson, Saskatchewan and Greg Hoggarth gather round the Hoggarth's table to

west. Les won the big stuffed dog for Janice at Canada's Wonderland.

If you missed this column
last week. it is because most
of us need a change of pace
and scenery, if not a holiday,
at some time during the year.
The July birthday party
was sponsored by the ladies of
Carmel Presbyterian Church,
Hensall. Residents having
birthdays during the month of
July were Mr. Noah Jantzi,
Mrs. Alice Webb and Mrs.
Oriole Westlake. The pro-
gram and refreshments serv-
ed by the ladies of the church
were very much enjoyed.
Gifts were presented to
residents having birthdays.

We regret that Mrs. Agnes
Sillery is presently in a Lon-
don Hospital. We wish her a
speedy recovery. We are hap-
py to have Mrs. Mary Spacek
back from St. Joseph's
hospital, London.
Would all members of the
Blue Water Rest Home Aux-
iliary please note that there
will be a business meeting at
8:00 p.m. at the Home on
Tuesday evening, August 2.
This will be concerning ar-
rangements for the Bean
Festival activities.
We hope all our visitors will
notice the beautiful quilt on
display. Tickets are available
here or from any member of
the auxiliary and the draw
will be made at the Zurich
Bean festival. Proceeds will
be for resident comforts. The
latest addition to the Home,
courtesy of the Ladies Aux-
iliary, is the hairdryer
replacement for the beauty
shop. I am sure residents will
find this one much more com-
fortable than the old one.
