BELFAST --- (Delaywh -- Now
we're in Ireland and the weather
continues to be bad—so bed that it
begins to seem we'll have to return
to Canada without taking part in
any blowing matches over hers. It's
a great disappointment to all of uv
but the conditions have been ex-
treme and the matches are Poet -
potted.
In my last letter we were in
Glasgow, just about to leave Scot-
land. We took an afternoon train
for Carlisle, where we stopper]
overnight at the Crown end Mitve
Hotel. Next morning We were
driven the 35 miles to Workington.
Workington is a mining town in
f inmhertand and it was there that
we were to have competed in our
first plowing match, We were se.
ceived by Mayor R. Townsley and
WM.(' his guests at a civic. Inneheon.
The afternoon had been act aside
for plowing practice in preparation
for the match next day, but due to
the heavy snow and cold and their
effect on the ground, the match
wee postpone for two weeks. This
was n disappointment 1n the town,
too, because the people seemed
very interested in ns and had made
many careful arrangements. As an
example, the Education officer had
planned to bring 600 schoolboys to
see us comtpete. The eh:ampion plow.
man of Devon, who has won 49
caps, had intended to enter the
matches,
Trips In Cumberland
However, the postponement gave
us a little break and most of nut
boys Monk the chance to eatteh up
on their sleep bofore,. n. Rotary
(linnet. that night.
Next morning we were toren for
a beauttftnl drive through the
Otonherlrand mountains, Har first
sltop wa,s at the very fine farm
home of Mr. Joseph Musgrave at
Tarnhn.nk, After viewing his herd
nt Holstein's and other etork we
were received in his home by his
Wife and family—another example
of the British hospitality We have
received everywhere,
We had lunch at Keswick, a. very
popular resort in the summer, and
tluen we drove a few nil's farther
to a sheep retell in the hills. Here
the owner, a Mr. Ralph, gave ns a
demonstration ot sheep dogs at
Work that was simply amazing. The
three dogs were directed by their
master's whistle, melt by a. note of
its con, ited rounded up the sheep
with remarknbie intelligence and
shill, This was one of the most
enjoyable trips of our mitre tour
so far.
It the evening we were the guests
of the Workington and District
agricultural Society at their annual
dinner. This was to have been the
plowmen's banquet at which prizes
would have been presented if the
match had not been postponed. Pro-
posing a toast, J. Lancaster. the -
chairman said;
"There never was a time when
agriculture was quite so necessary
in itnglanl. This is an industry that
has been neglected in the past,
Now. If we are to survive, we tinct
get back to the land." -
.Mt'. Lancaster also declared that
plowing matches between one Do.
111111,1011 and another are an activity
that will help to bring the countries
of the Empire closer together.
"Cntnade tame in with us right
at the beginning of two World
Wars,' 'he said, "We have stood
side by side to fight a military
enemy. Now we are prepared In
continue %lee by side to lirrht whet
is an even greater enemy, the world
rood ONtortage."
Newt morning we visited another
farm near Workington where we
saws n large herd of grade milking
Shorthorns, They had nearly 304
head, young and old. with over 100
milking. The farm home and other
buildings were built of stone and
the house end barn were attached,
but the arrangements struck ns as
inconvenient. 'and making a. lot of
extra wont.
That night we toolc the boat for
Ireland where we arrived next
morning, after a smooth censsing
of the Irish Channel. We were met
at the wlherf by James Ruddock
secretary treasurer of the North
Tnelan,d Plowmen's Association and
a. number of dire -dare.
Bad Weather In Ireland
Ireland] is sharing 111ngtand's bad
weather and .conditions 11.15 very
usldso'orable for glowing. Because
of tilt fuel shortage there is no
heat in our hotel rooms and we
aren't very comfortable. But the
leek of heat is being made up in
kind hospitality for nowhere in our
toric have we received a warmer
welcome from the people.
On aur first day in Belfast we
were shown through the buildings
and park of the Agricultural
Association: These groimes were
used as a military camp during the
war and now require some extensive
repairs, Tbis is the headquarters
for livestock sales in Northern
Troland, like tate Perth Sales we
saw In Scotland. They have a very
fine building which Is used for
hockey in the winter with an ice
surface of 220 feet by 180 feet.
By Monday morning it was quite
evident that the plowing match
which had been set for the. following
Wednesday could not take place
because of the frost and snow and
it was postponed to the end of the
week.
We were taken to Belfast City
Hall where we were presented to
the Lord Mayor, Mr. Neill. After
touring the building with its beauti-
ful stairway of Italian marble, we
returned to oar hotel where we were
guests of the Hon. Mr. Moore,
Minister of Agriculture of Northern
Ireland, at luncheon. After a few
stint cpm:ekes, each member of the
party was presented with a shil-
lelagh stick as a souvenir of Treland.
fn the evening we were guests
of the Irarmere' Thelon of Saint
Field at their annual social. The
Farmers' Tinton of Great Britain
is 0,111111er to the Federation of
Agriculture in ramie. T]3rlt 001.111.•
try and each county be. its own
organization like our provincial enti
county organizations et borne. It
is quite evident they are dohtg good
work, -as the farmers in Britain are
receiving nnm'b better prices for
their produce than we are in
Ontario,
Young Farmers Entertain
The 'Young Farmers' Union is
very active. Under the direction of
Mr. Kirkpatrick, who is chief or-
ganizer for Northern Trela.nl, over
90 groups have been formed. We
have been invited to he the guests
of the Young harmers' at meetings
Inc the next few evenings. A finer
bunch of young people would be
]card to find in any country,
'iihe postpontnsnt of the match
here will moan that our itinerary
must be t'earramged. We will put
the time to good use because there
is s greet deal to see, but we are
not very hopeful that the poet•
paned matches will be held, It hoe
been our luck to visit Britain during
the worst winter they have had in
many years„ ,anti we may have 1,0
leave for Canadla without ever
tmrning a sod do the Old `Land.
