Ilupressed With Courtesy of
Americans to Canadians
"The United States is closer to
Canada now than perhaps at any time
in the history of the continent," stat-
er Gorden McGavin of Walton who has
just returned from a 8,500 -mile trip
throughout Western Canada, British
Columbia and the middle -western
States of the United States.
"Americans feel that they are link-
ed quite closely to the Canadians, and
you often hear Canada referred to as
their sister -nation," declared Mr. Me -
Gavin, "You can't help but be im-
pressed by the courtesy -which they
show at all times to Canadians. Traf-
fic policemen tip their hats and wave
you through traffic, Stop and en-
quire at a service station or from a
policeman about directions and they
Will do everything possible to help
you: In face of this courtesy, you
can only hope that like courtesy is
given to the American people in Can-
ada."
Gordon McGavin, who is vice-presi-
dent of the Ontario Plowmen's As-
sociation, conducted a tour for John
B. Lister, gold medal winner, at last
year's International Plowing Match,
and Harold Pickett, the silver medal
winner. The tour started from Strat-
ford and took the trio through Lans
lug, Mich., over to Chicago and then
up into Manitoba, Saskachewan, Alb-
erta and British Columbia. From
there they went down in to riVasliing-
ton state, Idaho, Montana, Nebraska,
Iowa, Illinois, Indiana and from there
to Michigan and back to Ontario.
When they were in North Dakota
they ran into real evidence of Ger-
man propaganda designed to hurt
Canada's tourist trade. At Fargo
they met a group of people of Ger-
man origin. They were quite friend-
ly, and began asking questions about
the price of gasoline. It developed
that they had been led to believe that
gasoline was selling in Ce nada at OOc
a gallon,

tional value to the nen. they visited

the most part and 'learned a great
deal about new methods. They came
away with a new and very healthy
respect for the progress being made
by American agriculturalists. They
were pleased also with the way in
which these men received them. They
were encouraged to ask questions, and
and the American farmers and agri-
culturalists in turn asked questions
about Canada and the Canadian way
of farming.
There are a great many miscon-
ceptions prevailing in the United
States about Canadian farms and
farming. Some farmers in Wiscon-
sin could hardly believe that Ontario
had a fruit -growing belt. Other farm-
ers were inclined to believe that Ont-
ario was a flat province, resembling
the Prairies.
It would be an impossiblity to list
the many important items which they
saw and took' notes of ,for future
use. One of the plowmen, for in
stance, is a market gardener and he
learned at one college in the United
States that if buds of tomato plants
are covered at a certain stagein their
development the tomatoes will be per -
feebly smooth when they mature. The
frost action on the buds causes then
to be rough and this in turn affects
the fruit, Gordon himself saw an in-
teresting experiment in irrigation
which he is quite certain can be work-
ed to advantage on his own farm.
When you consider that one cow is
grazed on three acres of land here
and three cows are grazed on one
acre there, and the land is no better,
it makes you think,
In the opinion of Gordon McGat•vin
the sheepherders were the most un-
friendly lot he encountered. They
seemed to love their own company,
and would barely answer questions.
The cowboys on the other hand were
the most friendly and they would
stop work any time to roll a cigarette
and have a chat.
They met many people in their tra-
vels who were former residents of
Ontario. At Vancouver, Fred Mc-
Murray, the movie actor, was dining
in the same room with thein, From
a scenic standpoint they were greatly
impressed by Yellowstone National
Park, Figuring up the cost of gas
and oil they travelled , over 8,500
miles for a bare $122. This, they be-
lieve, is a record, and they did not
have any motor trouble on the road
at all.
Summing up his impressions of the
trip, Gordon McGavin said: "I could-
n't help but think that it would be
a grand education to have farmers
from Quebec visit Ontario and have
this sante interchange take place
across the Dominion. You form an
impression of another province that
experience teaches you entirely' wrong,
You begin to see the problems of
other farmers, and you Ieaen how
they overcome some of theirs, In the
same way, when this war is over it
would be an excellent thing to
have interchange of Canadian and
American farmers, It would improve
international relations and at the
same time improve farming in gener-
al in the, two countries."

station were taken to hospital as the
result of an accident sustained on the
road when their vehicle was turned
completely over after they had run
into one of the many heaps of gravel.
Indeed it is miraculous that there
have not been eveiz more serious aed-
dents on the highway.
Not only is the road dangerous, so
far as its surface la concerned—the
rolling gravel makes accurate steer-
ing an impossibility — but the dust
created by passing traffic is an even
greater menace, for there are times
when driving is a completey blindfold
affair so thick is the dust. It must
also be a great source of annoyance
to the farmers in the district, for all
day long great clouds of dust are
swirling over their. crops.
We have heard many times that
the highway was going to be paved
Sugar Makes The Mare Go
The good old days of the yesteryear
when people had time to think of
things other than how to get rich
quick were recalled on Monday night
when a goodly crowd gathered on the
Square to witness a unique display of
horse-manship,
It all started from a friendly argu-
ment over a high-spirited, balky horse
owned by "Whim" McManus, who bet
"Whiff" Graham five dollars that he,
Graham, could not ride the mare
once around the Square and out to the
McManus farm in Colborne township.
The money was put up: pronto, the
horse produced and the exhibition
commenced. With Graham on her.
back, without a saddle, the horse
started to waltz in circles, going ev-
ery way but the right one. Unused
to automobiles and crowds of people,
it required much patting, petting and
coaxing to get her on the Square at
South street. It took ten minutes to
make the first two hundred feet to
King street, Graham using every-
thing in his vocabulary the meanwhile.
Suddenly a spectator thought of a
chocolate bar and handed one to
Graham, who from his seat astride
the steed fed his, mount Bits of sweet
chocolate. It walked wonders. There
were very few breaks until the Salt -
ford bridge was reached and an S.O.S.
went up for another chocolate bar.
The fest of the journey to the barn
was plain sailing.
McManus maintained the horse was
a "spoiled child" and couldn't be con-
quered, but Graham was out to prove
otherwise and collected his five-spot.
Fred Ifoapkins, life -time horseman
from Iiolmesville, was referee.—God-
