Public Address by

Representative of Watch Tower Society
DAY, DEC. 16th
The cairn was located near the
scene, of today's plowing, and -in-
cidentally this land is owned and
operated by one of the oldest col-
leges in OXford. Thirteen flagpoles,
each bearing the flag of a compet-
ing country, formed a square in'
front of the cairn.
Before the arrival Of the royal
party the thirteen plowing' teams
took up positions in front of the
poles. A guard of 'honer in full
dress uniform Was 'drawn up and
there were also royal trumpeters
in their colorful trappings, an of-
ficial in robes of office who acted
as master, of ceremonies, and an
archbishop accompanied by his
chaplain, Standing by the corners
of the eairn were girls in period
eostumes of the British. Isles.
Into the square drove the Duke
and Duchess of Gloucester, ac-
coMpanied by a party including J.
J3, Thomas of Toronto, president
of 'the World Plowing Match. Af-
ter alighting from. the car; Mr,
Thomas presented the members• of
the teams to their• Royal Highness-
es. Following the presentation the
Duke proceeded to a dies where
he delivered a, short addreas, At

wood day was grassland plowing,
As far as the weather was con-
cerned, it was much like the prey:

of the red rocket that would open
the contest, The plots were, all is
a row and numbered from one ,to
25, Mickey Dernntao had milliner
16 and Bob Timbers bad number
25 and had WI-Veit his owri cast-
off,
This was tWR-Year sod of ley,4as
they call it here, but it was in
better condition for plowing thao
the stubble land, The top• growth
was fairly. heavy. Bob' had drawn
a good plot and his opening furrow
was excellent, Mickey also had a
wonclarful start and was showing
great shill until he ran into trouble
at the finish with the last furrow
and sole furrow, On 'the other
hand Bob carried his , good start
right through to an excellent fin-
ish. But I must confess here I be-
came quite worried and feared that
he wouldn't have enough- time to
finish. I spoke• to the stewards
asking if time could be allowed
for the, extra strike and they 'de-
cided to give him an additional
ten minutes, I didn't tell Bob and
as it happened he didn't need the
extra time, He bad turned" 'in the-
last furrow as the rocket signal-
ling the close of the match soared
above the field. I heaved a sigh of
relief,
At that point I felt confident we
had a winner in Bob. Judging
from the reinal'ks one heard on'
all sides that confidence was wide-
ly shared, But it would be an hour
or more before we' knew the re-
Suits, or at least until after the
ceremony of the unveiling of the
"peace cairn" by the Duke of
Gloucester.
The peace cairns, as I mention-
ed in my, first letter, arc made of
stones arranged in a semi-pyramtd.
Their purpost. is to mark the sites
of world plowing matches:One was
erected 'at Cobourg to commernor-
ate the first world match in 1953
when plowmen from eleven coun-
tries were guests in Canada of Im-
perial Oil. Another was unveiled
last year at Upsala, 'Sweden. The
name "peace cairn" 'is . derived
from the theme of these matches,
"Peace through the Plow".
Around the top portion of the
cairn is a band, or surround, of
native stones bearing the' 'Alamos
of the competing, countries and-
contributed by them. Surmounting
all is a three-foot replica of an
18th century Norfolk plow 'in the
Kensington Museum, It is regarded
as the ancestor of the modern
plow. in use in plank parts of. the
western world. It was also the
model for 'the Esso •Golden Plow
trophy, Symbol of world plowing
supremacy, which is awarded to
the winner of the world match.
The unveiling ceremony was a
memorable event, It created quite
a bit of exciternentfts people here
seem to, love pageantry and, they
definitely respect royalty. I'll do
my, best to describe what took
place but I feel I won't do justice
to this great event
Friends •
AUBURN—A ',meeting attended
by many district farmers was held
recently at Carlowl when Sam'
Bowman, Fanner editor et
Elora" addressed the gathering.
Poring his address the al:maker
stressed the fact that if farmers
want an 'agricultural policy Which •
answers to today's''problems, they
themselves must accept the tOpon-
sibility of formulating it, •
Canadian farmers have. not bene.
fited by the general economical
boon, Mr, Bowman said, because
they have not adjusted themselves
to, modern business methods, They
have been very successful in ad-
ii,pting themselves to We maehine
age. The transition period from
the horse and buggy to tite:tractor'
and all power machinery which
goes with it, was n, comparatively
shOrt one, Farmers have. spent so
Much time improving their hus-
bandry and acquiring machines 'to
replace hired help and, their own'
children who have. left the farm,
he continued, that the business end
of farming has been neglected; and
the result has been that he has not.
received a fair share for his labor.'
In Other industries the orgalii•
national advertising and' sales de,
partments receive a Prominent
place while the farmer still places
more emphasis on a bard day's,'
work, 'Farmers , comprise 19%. of
the population of Canada, while
they receive only 5% of the na-
tional income.
Depenctent on •Agriculture
There are those who say that
the country is progressing so ra-
pidly that an agricultural depres-
sion makes' little difference. He
went on, to point out' that the far-
mer is far more important to our
economy than some, of" these fig-
ures would indicate, For instance,
'ized this fact and support farm
organizations.
Fanners in Canada have $1,200,-
000,000 more invested than all
other industries combined and the
upkeep 'of these industries is tre-
mendous. Mr. Bowman stated that
no industry can stay in nosiness
indefinitely unless it 'can show -a
profit, and this is a basic economic
problem that farmers arc begin-
ning to face.
He, said that already -there are'
encouraging results form the ef-
forts of the Union. When it start-
ed to organize and advocated par-
ity price program, no bne listened.
Last winter, in the, House of Com:
moos, the ConserVatives introduc-
ed such a bill with CCF and Social
Credit. backing it while the Gov,
ernment opposed it. Since that
time there haS been a marked dif-
ference in GoVernment attitude, as
Mr. lVfcCabbio, agricultural assis-
tant. to Hen, '7, Gardiner told the
Ontario Farmers' Union conven-
tion that he Would support it. Mr.
Bowman said that there 'were other
things as'Well that were an indica-
tion to him that there was nothing
wrong with agriculture that could
not, be corrected if farmers would
build themselves a strong ordeal-
zation through' which they could,
formulate and implement policy.
MILK--50c A QuAes
If the nutrients in milk were to
be purchased at the current rates

almost 50 cents. Here's how it
