Exiaert tractor plowmen from ,major agricultural areas across Canada will compete in Ontario early - newt - month- - for -Canada's most coveted plowing trophy, the Bssoy Silver Plow, emblematic of the tractor plowing chamlrionehip of Canada.

Competition in this class will be the high point of :the 41st annual International Plowing Match, to be held --for four days beginning October 12 at Breslau, near Kitchener. This year's match is expected to attract even • more plowmen than the 700 who com- peted in various events last year, and arrangements are underway to accommodate more than 150,000, spectators. The Ontario Plowmen's Associ- ation, sponsors of the match, have already received entries from British Columbia and Manitoba; and they expect competition for the silver plow, which is provided by Imperial Oil Ltd., to come also from teams' representing Ontario, Nova Scotia, Prance Edward Island and Quebec.

Cultivat- ed land with a good stubble mulch may be more difficult to prepare for seeding but the advantages justify the extra work that may be necessary. ' In the spring of the year the soils , may be 'granular from the action of winter frost so that even low velocity winds can easily cause erosion on bare land. Research indicates that it is not possible to change the structure of a soil to any great extent by means of sail' conditioners or ineorperatiOn of organic matter.The incorper - tion of large arhounts of straw into a soil in tests carried over a period of ten years, says Frederick Bisai, Soil Research Laboratory, Swift Current, Sask., did not indicate lower erossibility by wind than the soil on adjacent plots to which no straw had n. added. 'Likewise, synthetic sod conditioners' do not haive the desired effect of creating a Jumpy surface but cause a de- gree of granulation inducive to higher infiltration . of water but more susceptibility to the forces pf 'the wind, S•imula ed rainfall results,, indi- cated that loam and clay soils without south cb r ha + a oSt equal bight runoff after' 'less than three -q Carters of an inch , of in- tense mtense rainfall.

"I just want to express my appreciation," he stated. He pointed out his relatives once lived in Huron County' and were Pennsylvania Dutch, or, as he said, rimps-more--Correctly; Germane l --- "My grandfather always talked to the Lord in his own language, for years after English was gen• erally spoken in Huron •County. I don't think these people, as a whole, have proven to be very bad citizens." - Continuing, he wrote: "The part I was most concerned about was the exception of some residents to the Dutch people having - a church of their own. I need not mention any names, but would you not think they would be glad they (the Dutch) even wanted to go to ,Church. Most likely most of them would get about one word in ten, of an English service. If the' "young folk bad to wait until they knew enough Engllsh to be worth while going to church,' they would likely have found interests else- where that were not so good, and lose ,their desire for church inter. ests. "1 know what it is to be a `foreigner' in a foreign land. I spent several years in China. We were called `foreign devils' there. In a'city where there were several missions, we had one ser- vic a week at one of the missions, in English and exclusively for English speaking foreigners. It ways' not that we did not under- stand the Chine 'service and every word that was spoken,. but as ,foreigners we needed that little bit of fellowship and relaxation. 159 • Nobody loved China and its people o more than we did, and I can safely say, still do." - QUICK CANADIAN QUIZ 1.
