thursday october 10th ims the acton free pres chronicles ot ginger farm wimlin fftihr t rw am rvm y owkndounst r uayfa thara ha bean an october as warm as this on before but x certainly dont remember it la tart it isnt warm it u downright hot it immi ao queer hot weather 31vi autumn leaves it just doemnt make ens dut then there isnt much that doe make tens these days so maybe the weatherman is just sort of keeping tn step however- things are straightening up a little bit the steel strike and the farmers delivery strike both having rome to an end it is possible there will be probably something a little more like peace on the hutne- tront providing lite est while strikers ran be persuaded to stop fighting among themselves then of royrw wr are all anxi ously awaiting the findings of the ifoyal commission set up to lnqule into the privtuclitn and distribution costs of vtluilr milk which rr minds me a funny thing neat ly happened the other morning i forgot to get our daily quota of milk from the tarn the trutk had picked up the cans he fore i nrn thought of it well i wild to mmlf it looki n if ue shall knnu what it feelt like to bu fifteencent muk for once in our lives and to tell ou the truh i didnt quite illfth the thought hut paitner ad the da he rememb ered i hndnt lnvn after it and he hruuirhl nw mhih- up in the milk pail ao ue mit aide tf drink right rent milk after all there art u1 plenty of farms chanjtln hands in this neljmrhoi and when n f miner arils out c kmiw just aout hnt a l tdown feeling it mini kim- rural luit the other diy i came to realize that it is poaalhle to ha e that wmr mnw of lo hil on ihe imlalnxnt plan you me we had come to the parting of the ways v ith perch one of the good oil faithfuls ulth wht h e started farm ing in ontario tn fart he was the one remaining link with our early struggles in thla game ot farming perch along with his teammata nell served us well through gom times and had then about tree years ago nell dropped dead in her tracks while ploughing presumably of heart failure that left us with perch and prince and finally just perch although ot her horses hav of course been purchased to take the place of the old one perch ua quite a character no matter what horse he was hitched up with he awa had to he a little ahead it was the uime thing at night or first thing in the morning lie seemed ahaolulelx tireless and et alua looked half idarvrd but he wasnt he rouldn t he on the oais he ate when he w ant working perch was quite tontcnted out in the pasture he didnt worry about nn- thlng or anhod unless ho thought he had been left to pasture too lon without a drink in which cac he didnt bother to unit our conenlcncc but would jump the fence and tiep himself in fact lie could jump an fence he wanted to if he felt like it but strnngel enough he nrer both ered unlev it wav for a special reason for instance in his laler ear perch w as allergic to cold w at or o rather than walk through the creek to grt homo he mnnv n detour hv jumping a couple of fences frn this last car when he was past work he could mill take a fence like a cnlt yes poor old perch was sth oung in spirit right up to the erv end i on t hough he hnd hea ei so hadh ho mounded more like a tractor than a horse and was so thin vou could count his ribs the thin ness w a not lnrk of food hut lark of teeth to chew it with in cold weather he also had a habit of ge- tlng down and not lolng nhie to get up ngnln horses can suffer n lot that so there was onlv one thing to do and partner had it done aw i ft h and palnlcd which we thought was more humane than keen ing the poor old thing around to suffer and eventually die but still when an old horse goe something of yourself goes with it and when it ts the i ant of the orig inal stork it is like losing part of th farm howeer we haent been lonely for horses just latelv a neighbors team has been siting us quit fre quently crossing over two of hlr own fields and then into our one day the young lad came after the truants and they gave him quite a run for hu money but eventually he got them home then he went into din ner came out and the horses were nowhere tn sight which wasnt sur prising sine they wer back in our field again thats the time when a farmer is clad to have a boy acton fair draws record crowd and best in 34 years continued from pag oae yim prtaa wteasri iiobfleh
