off to toronto and johnny as you may remember k westward bound the ln t wo heyird of lilm lie wnn in winnipeg nnd still travelling so the weekend hnfl been quiet but the preceding days have been turned around from our first threshing before the machine was back for a second go unexpect edly of course stook threshing wnt in progress on another- farm when it rained no the threshers headed for the neareflt farm where threihlng might be needed thnt happened to be here it wan live oclock when we got ord they were coming did we put on a spurt i just about went on two wheels nround the corners on my way to town for supplies of coure we managed our rushorder dinner all right nnd although wo were through threshing by two oclock yet we had the men for supper because the machine only moved a cross the road to our bachelor neighbor and ijjffered to to put up supper forhhsmen too after nil when one has prepared for one meal it isnt much more work to do two and i did have cicely to help thursday we had invited two elderly ladles out for the day i was just getting ready to go for them when a friend phoned from guelph that she was coming down by bus that afternoon and would stay overnight her visit was the outcome of a atandlng invitation on friday there was a threshing for bob to go to my friend to be taken to the nearest highway to catch a return bus to guelph a crate of eggs to get ready and to ship and cicely to be taken to niagara of course cicely could have gone on the bus but wc had planned that i would go with her and bob would drive us partner insisted that we go on with our plans and he would do the after noon threshing i dont like the idea of leaving him to it but oh that mnn he can be stubborn we wiw niagara foils for about ten minutes and it was more beautiful than i hnd ever seen it befoi e there won more green above the falls shrubs or brush of some kind which made the falls a richer green in color the water was very low so naturally there w as lea spray as we wntched suddenly there appeared a beauti ful rainbow over the tumbling water my first view of a rainbow at the falls it was really some thing to remember much much nicer than the artificial illumin ations saturday the weather had cleared and my two men were drawing in oats and working late because they were late milking wo late supper was late every thing was late but w it goes in between our joy rides and oui big jobs we had a little job a horrid repulsive little job and that was hunting tomato worms just before we threshed i found one of theso horrid fat green things but i didnt think much about it because any time we have grown tomatoes i have found one or perhaps two but no more well the mt time i looked at the plants i found lo my horror thit man of the vlnts hnd been strip- i ped of their leaves then the hunt began and on our fift plants we puked off no less than eighteen i orms t ver having grown torn noes txtinsivilv wt know little about this pests how

don t know whether illtler originated th idea thnt if you make a lie big enough almost anyone wulhollevo it but he certainly uwdtijewihon nnd gave it common cuirrertey the sad thing obout it is that in our vory fallible wnya there is n ceriiiin amount of truth underlying the contention people do seem to jiave nn amazing capacity for ac cepting ns truth figures that would make any amateur econom ist gag a fairly recent instance was i he newspaper nnd radio story of a retailor who was found gujlty of imposing a 218 profit on a transaction in nails this hearty figure was accepted by innumer able people as n simple fact and so became another of the unwar ranted reflection on our system of enterprise had these profits been actual we wouldnt have been writing this piece but would have been sharing the rasentnient that was so general presumably the 218 camo into the matter somewhere nnd theflguro itself isnt disput ed but an presented it was one of those juicy bg lies that seem to muddlo the thinking of other wise intelligent people now just fwhat might bo an honest and reasonable profit in the building trade- market we would not know but even in a mast generous mood we would mtrdrsaytt mlghtlso that sort of reflection was all that the commentators needed thoy recognized the bignees of the figure if not the lie and they knew also that being ammunition for thowullng critic uwouklbe well received so why look farth er had they looked farther how ever they undoubtedly wool have rebognlsed that the 218 uld only have bean a tfoc1t tender vfiry unusual circumstances to wit if

ware aopplled free if the property and stock went on forever in unempsired efficiency nnd value if insurance companies would carry his con siderable risk without any charge and the city generously supply its services nnd protections without taxation but 218 less these de ductions vvas probably no more than any reasonable citizen would have thought a fair return for the risk and effort that is
