to be bad ---so bad that , it begins, to
seem we'll have to return to Canada
without taking .part ,ill any plowing
matches ,over here. It's a great dis-
appointment to all of us, but the con-
ditions have been extreme and the
matches are postponed.
In my last letter we were in Glasgow.;.
just about to leave Scotland. We took
an afternoon train for Carlisle, -where
we stoped overnight at the Crown
and Mitre Hotel. Next morning We
were driven ,,the thirty -live :miles to
Workington_

Cumberland and it vas' there thuit we

The afternoon had been set aside for
_piowing_:practice in preparation for the
match next da but ow in _ o 1 e
,snow and cold af'd •their effect on the
ground tine match was postponed for
two weeks. This was a disappointment
in rhe town, too, because the people
.seemed very interested'in us and had
Made many careful_ arrangements. As
an example, the "education officer had
planned to bring 600 schoolboys to see
us compete. .The 'champion plowman
of Devon, who has wen. forty-three
cups., had intended to enter the matches.
• Trips in Cumberland
However, the postponement gave us
a little break and most of our boys
took the chance to catch up on their
sleep before a Rotary•dinner that night:
Next morning we were taken for a
beautifuldrive through the Canrber-
,land mountains: Our first stop was at
the vers fine farm home of Mr. Joseph
Musgrave at Tarnbank. After viewing
his herd of Holsteins and other stock
we, were received in his home" by his
wife and family -another example of
the British hospitality we have received
everywhere.
We had lunch at Keswick, - a very
popular resort in the summer, and then
we drove a few miles farther to a
sheep farnt in the hills: Here the
owner, a •Mr. Relph, gave us a demon-
stration of sheep dogs at work that
was -Amply amazing. .The three dogs
were directed by their master's whistlet
each by a note of its own, and rounded
up the sheep with. remarkable intel-
ligence and•skill. This vets one of the
most enjoyable trips of our entire tour
,so far.
In the estening we were the guests of
the Workington and District Agrieul-
tural Society at their annual dinner.
This was to have been -the plowmen's
banquet -at which prizes would • have
been presented if the match had not
been postponed. Proposing a toast;. J.
Lancaster, the chairman said:
"There never was a time when agri-
culture was quite so necessary in Eng-
land. Th'is", is an, industry that has
been' neglected in the past: NOw, if. we
are to survive,- we must get back to
the land."
Mr. Lancaster also declared that
plowing matches between one Dorniii•
ion and another are an activity that
will help to bring the countries of the
Empire closer together.
"Canada .came in with us rights at
the beginning of two World Wars," he
said, "We .have stood side by side to
fight •a military enemy. Now we are
preptired to continue side by side to
fight what is an even greater enemy,
the world food shortage,"
Next ---morning. , we—visited—another-

That night we took the boat for
