Sound's far-fetched? Not in this jet age. Actually, Victoria isn't any farther away from Eastern Ontario than, say, London is by car, Six hours from Montreal .in one of the big TCA DC -8 pure jets, rid- ing six miles high, and the Pacific is yours. Mrs. Morris and I had that experience, at the invitation of Trans -Canada .Air Lines, and in this and the next few stor- ies we are going to try and describe our experience, one which we know we will never forget. However, we will digress a bit from the jet flight so that we can tell of the versatility of TCA when an emergency is met, Fog — an offshoot from Hurricane Carla — was the enemy and the reason behind this episode. As we drove to Montreal, in the morning, we noted the fog coming in heavier from the St, �..,,......,........., _4444 _4,444 4444.. ,44444444..444444. 4444. 8..,_.444_ O .44..4.44-.....,,,.,;..,44.44, .444.0 , .44.4444444,44. _««-..,.._..44 414„4.,,,, 444.4„•,,,,44,... ..,,4.44444 44444444 44444. .04 .......•._»»44...4444 ;a:A sell THEN YOU ARE LIKELY TO BE Ambitious, wide awake.

By the time we reached Dorval we began to wonder about the take -off, The man behind the TOA counter told us, as we checked in with our baggage and tickets, that our jet had circled the field for an hour and then had turned about and gone back to Toronto! We would .be taking off on schedlule in a four -engine turbo -prop Viscount to connect with the jet flight in Toronto. Here an incident reminded us of the truth that ours is a shrinking world, Colonel and Mrs. Doug Powers spoke to us the 'last time we saw them was in Soest, Germany, at the Canadian Infantry Brigade Headquarters, where he was serving with our NATO force and we were doing a series of stories for weekly papers last summer. We spent an hour looking over this vast international air terminal taking pictures in bl- ack and white and colour and being photographed by TCA while we awaited the 2.30 flight. Miss Beverly Sylvestri, our stewardess, showed us a- bout the efficient looking Vis- count standing on the tarmac alongside its big brother, the Vanguard. Like their bigger brothers; the pure jets, the Viscount wastes no time in getting air- borne. Once clear of the run- way, unway, the pilot lifts ,the nose, and up you go to 15,000 feet! Miss Sylvestri welcomed us a- board, over the PA system, and told us we would be in Toronto in an hour and .a half —less time than it took us to drive to Montreal!

Huron County Federation of Agriculture directors reset last Tuesday, October 10 in the ag- riculture office board room, Cl- inton. President Warren Zur- brigg reported on a meeting with OKNX to plan the "Point of View" program for the com- ing Farm Forum season. The president, the two vice-presi- dents and the secretary were appointed to attend future pl- anning meetings. Voting delegates to the ,prov- incial annual were elected as follows: Warren Zurbrigg, Gor- don Greig, Elmer Ireland, lady delegate Mrs. Warren Zurbrigg; alternates, Alex McGregor, Alf Warner, Mrs. Alex McGregor. A delegate from the Junior Farmers and Junior Institute was left to them to elect. The county annual is set for November 29 at the Londes- boro Hall with the usual din- ner for township directors and the meeting following. This year the ladies of the Country Federation are setting up a meeting of their own after they have heard the guest speaker. It is hoped that there will be a good representation of the ladies out to take part. Warren Zurbrigg reported for the concentrated milk produc- ers stating that a petition re- questing a vote an a milk mar- keting plan is presently' being circulated. This has been al- most completed by the other dairy groups and the concen- trated folk hope to get theirs done by October 31. Bob McGregor reported on the Ontario Beef Producers Directors meeting in Toronto of October 10 stating that the chairman of the Farm Prod- ucts Marketing Board strongly recommended' that farmers sh- ould send a much larger num- ber of their cattle to the public stock yards at Toronto to make it more competitive in estab- lishing prices. However, Dr. Patterson of the Ontario De- partment of Agriculture, ec- onoinics branch reported that in a survey his department had conducted throughout the pro- vince and contacting 400 beef producers it was found that 70 percent: were opposed to the present auction method of sell- ing now being used at the To- ronto Stockyards,&•.. The question of bonding of community sales was discussed when it was learned that one of these had gone broke and was currently paying off at 62 cents on the dollar. There had .been some quest- ion on bonding of cattle buy- ers generally and it was sug- gested that they, too, should be required to obtain a license at a nominal fee which would also require bonding. Official grading of beef car- casses to the producer with Government weighing as 'well, was requested but so far has had no support from the De- partment of Agriculture. Several resolutions were ap- proved for presentation at the OFA annual and no doubt you will hear about these at that time. a BRUCEFiELD tMrs. H. F. Berry, Correspondent Mr. and Mrs. Fred Boyce re- turned Sunday from atwo week's trip to the Western provinces, visiting relatives at Brandon, Manitoba, and Excel, Alberta.

THS TELEGRAM DAILY PLUS WEEKEND Time To Clean Garden - Try New Varieties October, an important month in rthe garden, re -opens the pl- anting season. This is the time of year to planet bulbs -- tul- ips, crocuses, and daffodils, It is also the season to re- move plants from perennial borders. Peonies, for instanee, may safely be divided now, whereas if they are moved in the spring, they d'o not bloom that summer. Eliminate some fast-growing plants and try some new ones, suggests On- tario Department of Agricult- ure horticulturists. Evergreens like warm soil and October is a good month to move or plant them. There are different varieties of jun- iper, so find out how high they grow and how much they sp- read before planting them. The common cedar, given a little attention and clipping, makes a beautiful green hedge. Yews have the advantage of remaining green throughout the entire season. Then there are such • broad-leaved evergree is, as Mahonia and Euonynious. With trees, the fall of the leaf determines the planning time. There are many advant- ages in fall planting. It en- ables the gardener to check mistakes and plan what to or- der and plant for 1962. STOP ON A DIME? FIGURE THAT AGAIN If you are proud of your car, and keep it in top shape you may have the feeling that, ,in an emergency, you could stop on a dime. The truth is, says the Ontario Safety League, at 60 mph on good roads, a motor- ist can only stop at rthe end of a string of 5,856 dimes, st- retching the length of •a foot- ball field. When the pavement is wet he needs three-fourths again as many dimes to stip on. When the road is icy he must cover about 30,000 dimes extending 1830 feet before st- opping.
