Good Stuff, Pete! Some time ago,

Peter Kaiser, baritone soloist. At
the Kiwanis Music Festival and
walked off with top honours. Well,
last week he appeared on the radia
programme, "Stars of. Tomorrow"

think he did a grand job and know
that, if you heard hiin, you enjoyed
him.
Who's On Second? While the
bouquets are being tossed around,
we can mention Neil MacCarl of
Whitby who is doing a bi gjob of

CHRONICLES OF GINGER FARM
By iwvendoline P. Clarke
•
Something seems to tell me that
this is summer! At any rate it is
the time of heat and buying, sudden
storms and summer visitors—but not
necessarily related—and times when
everything seems to hapen at once.
Saturday fur instance: The mar
were working like fury trying to
clear a big field of hay beforethreat-
ening storms could stop them or the
close of the day bring a normal end
to field and barn activities. Andbe-
tween them they did it. Partner
took over the chores while the boys
stayed out in the field. One load they
brought in just about had me quak-
ing. 1 was ,Sure the wagon would
never go into the barn or that John
would be decapitated in the process,
The load swayed crazily on the
rough ground anti as it approached
the barn 1 stood watching. John
crouched lower and lower, tate horses
Jugged their way into the barn, the
beam over the doorway caught the
top of the load until it pushed a few
forkfuls of hay back and back and
finally over the end of the rack. Ex-
cept for that the load did go into the
barn. 1-Taviret reassured myself on
that 'point 1 moved "the Greening"
out of the sun into the garage. May-
be my mind was on the load, or
maybe it was the heat, anyway when

that's something for Bob to deal
with -and will he be mad!" After
supper 1 told him the worst—and he
wasn't mad at all. In fact Inc took the
opportunity to do a little experiment-
ing. Instead of towing the car or
getting a store battery, he jacked one
wheel lip and then turned the wheel

Then came Sunday._Both the boys
expected -to be away most of the day
and as Partner and I were not look-
ing for any visitors we intended to
make the most of a quiet day and
rest up a bit. Incidentally there ,
wasn't too much to eat in the house
because in humid weather 1 try to.

to a minimum rather than have them
s,loil. Of course you have guessed
what happened! Yes, we had visitors
all right—visitors from a distance-7-

Bus don't think they starved. On a
farm there is always something one
can rustle up a meal with in a hurry,
but until one has thought it out one,
does have a few had moments! And.
believe me, short rations 11MM/it/1-
St:Hiding, we Were pleased to see our
visitors.

Then came Monday: Carpenters
were here first thing in the morning
to repair the hayfork track. Partner
left the boys to help with the job
while he went out to mow. While all
the men were thus occupied a truck
3 came along to pick up a veal calf we
wanted to have butchered for the
locker; then along came another
trudt for two veal calves that were
going to market and of course each
time 1 had to hunt a man to handle
the calves. Sometime during the
morning John came to the house.
Looking for bolts in a box at the
barn he had disturbed a bee's nest.
13y the look of John's arum one bee had
shown active resentment, the others
were buzzing around angrily just
near the driveway in the barn where
the horses take their load. As every-
one knows bees and horses is a barn
don't make good companions. 1 fixed
up Johnny and then, after 1 had
given the bees time to quieten down
a bit, I fixed them too. Thank
heaven for DDT—it can sure save
j a lot of work and misery on a job
like that.
