Zurich Herald, 1945-12-27, Page 3SOME DAY SHE'LL TALK ABOUT THIS VISIT Queen Elizabeth showed keen interest in • ae brand-new Briton during her visit to the Danbury Park War Emergency hospital at Chelmsford, London. The mother, Mrs, Mary French, was, impressed by the royal visit, but not so was young Caroline, the new baby. CHB of GI GE F By Gwendoline P. Clarke As I write it is the week before -Christmas - and what weather! The wind is so cold it seems utterly im- possible to keep the house warns - for the first time since we had the furnace installed, That is because the wind is in the southwest and .a11 our storm windows are on the north and north-west of the house. But at any rate it isn't storming so we have much to be thankful for, especially with coal in the cellar and a recently cut woodpile in the yard. I wish I could be. sure that everyone else was equally fortunate. I feel the cold so much myself that it just retakes inc wonder how people can suffer lack of heat, clothes, food and bedding and still survive. . * * =h Well, T Have just turned on the radio and judging from the storm news from Buffalo we, by compar- ison, certainly have little to com- plain about on this side of the -bor- der - at least, not at present. And then, as if to convey the impression that Old Masi` Winter -is not always in a .harsh mood I saw front the kitchen -window, the most glorious sunrise I have seen in weeks - flame tipped purple clouds against a back- ground of the palest green. A typ- ical Turneresque sky - except that Turner's pictures are mostly of sun- sets, are they not? When I said something to son Bob about the beautiful sunrise he told me I should have seen the moon! He said that when he went to the barn it was like walking out on to a great beam -of light. So now I suppose I should get up to see the moon - and I thought I was doing pretty well a- bout the sun. Excuse me a minute...I think it is light enough now for the hens to feed - so I had better go and feed 'em. * * * Br -r -r ... It's good to be back in- the warm again! I wish I were as anxious to get down to business first thing in the morning as our busy biddies. Barely light enough for thein to see and yet they are up and doing and had laid exactly one dozen eggs just to start the day right I suppose. Itt fact one of them couldn't wait for the dawn so she dropped her egg in the night. And now, having listened to Geo- ffrey Ford pinch-hitting for Jim Hunter, it is time to gel breakfast pfor Partner. You see we have breakfast in relays here. Bab is gen- erally up and out to the barn before Partner gets up. That way we can be sure of Partner getting a little extra rest, But then Bob is natur- ally through first - hence the two breakfasts. Partner, like nearly all men, is just about as stubborn as he can b(•. I want hien to sell some of his cows and he insists on keeping then. Oh yes, he does say this one and that will be shipped out "when they are dry", but I'm beginning to think he means "dry" after the next time they have conte in fresh, I "threat- ened" this ntoruhig to go down and .help with the milking later on if he still kept so many snitch cows. "Well", said Partner, "if it ever be- comes necessary to help with the milking that will he the time to call the truck in and ship thein all out!" You see, Partner has the idea that milking is no job for a woman - • Which will strike many farm people as a queer notion. * * * Taking it. all .in all this Milk bus - Ness is quite a job. I often think that when a farmer starts shipping milk it's like it roan taking to drink. The more its has the more he wants. A farmer who separates his milk and sells the cream does 't worry particularly when his mi 1: supply falls off. He has his pigs and his poultry to utilise the skim milk and, generally speaking, he has something coaling in most of the time from his by-products. Btit a farmer selling milk .. , well, he pro- bably starts by shipping two cans. Then ntaybe•he has half a can over and lie thinks if only he had a little more milk he could ship three cans. So he scouts around and buys an- other cows. By now he has reached the early stages of milk -drunken- ness. Later he imbibes still further. He thinks if twelve cows bring in so-and-so "he might as well get a milking machine and mills twenty- fotlr. That is just fine for an up and coming young dairy farmer - that is the way it should be. But there are too many older men also trying the same stunt - overtaxing their strength for the sake of selling milk and still more milk, and more than likely the women, who, in all pro- bability have reached the age when they should be taking things easy, must still go to the barn to help milk the• cows that keep the milk cheques rolling in. But maybe I had better quit be- fore I say too much.
