" of the History Department desperately needs to locate people who went on. a harvest excursion from the Huron County area during the 1920s. Each fall during the 1920s an'average of 15,000 Ontarions went West to help bring in the Prairie wheat crop and many came from the Huron County area. ' However; little is known about this important part of Canadian history. "Because of the lack of written records," said' Hak, "the only way to recoverthis part of our history is by talking to the people who actually went west on the excursions.. Hak hopes to chat with at least 50former'ex- cursionists from thi's area during the summer. If you went on a harvest excursion in the 1920s and are willing to share your knowledge please write to Gordon, Hak, Department of History, University of Guelph, or phone (519) 824-4120, extension 3887.
