INTERNATT'OINAL oPLOWING
LATCH AT FE'RGUS
More than 109,001) Canadlian and
United States' agriculturists and
their families and friends 'are expect-
ed to visit the 2151fh annual 'Interna-
tional 'Plowing Match and Farm Ma-
chinery iDentons'tration to he held at
'Fergus, 'Ont., frons !Oct. dL to 115, it
was announced .by .1 A, Carroll, sec-
retary-nranager of the .Ontario dlow-
atien's Association, ,under whose aus-
pices the famous match is held each
year, following a ;meeting of the
committee in charge of arrangements
for the huge event.
It was also announced that, due to
tine tremendous enthusiasm of the lo-
cal :committee at 'Fergus, ,and 'because
of the steadily increasing interest ex-
hibited each year by plowmen -com-
petitors and spectators, the prize list
thi year will total nearly 55,000,
considerably in excess of previous
years' purses.
'Over 1600 competitors are expected
to enter the matches this year, it was
stated, and while a large proportion
of this total will :be from Western
Ontario, of which 'Fergus is practic-
ally the geographical centre, a great
number of contestants will be fa3'm-
ers from 'Eastern ;Ontario, who will
repay the 'visit their Western 'Ontario
'brothers made llast year when the
cotnpetition was held at Cornwall,
hear Ontario's eastern boundary.
Still another large contingent of
visitors is anticipated from the United
States, based on the many who cross-
ed the 'International Border last fall
to watch the performance of the mas-
ter plowmen on the plowing fields 'at.
Cornwall,
Of this group of visitors to the
matches, it is likely that Michigan,
Ohio, Pennsylvania, and 'New York
will send the largest representations
of entrants, accompanied by their
friends and families.
The location of this year's :inter-
national Plowing. Match, the commit-
tees int charge feel sure, is one'guar-
antee that it will he the best attended
and most successful in the long and
colorful history of the event, which
has no equal anywhere in the world.
Fergus is .located 'in Wellington coun-
ty, in the centre of a heavily populat-
ed area and :surrounded by some of
the ,finest- agricultural districts in
Western [Ontario .and, in fact, of the
'whole 'Province.
Pt is served by a network of paved
highways, radiating in every direction
which make ;Fergus easily accessible
and within a clay's motor trip of all
the many thousands who are expect-
ed to join in the motor cavalcade trek
to the matches.
The landlady observed one o'f her
younger boarders busily engaged in
cleaning his silver before eating, .and
inmtediately pounced upon him.
"In the 'first place," she said, "it is
•bad manners; and in the second:, it
soils the linen!"
,-\ titan entered a big store and
made his way to tate gardening de-
partment, "I want three lawn mow-
ers," he said.
The clerk stared at him, "Three,
sir?" he echoed, '"You must have a
very large estate."
"Nothing of the kind," said the
man, grimly. {Of have two neighbors!"
