Berry) (Conitinued tram last week> The next day I went back Io Vancouver, tayed about four day8. While there I took a bus trip around the city. This Io very worthwhile for there ère many places of scenic in- terest, xnany wonderful bridges that keep the outlying districts in touch with the central part, lovely parks, a fine harbour, a splendid business section and has the distinction of being the third largest city ini aur Dom- inion' and growing rapidly as mnany new sections are being opened up. ,While in Vancouver I went with a friend ta Capalina Canyon, one ai the beauty ifflts. There is a suspension :ýoot bridge over the canyon- 400 feet long and 200 feet higli. Wihen yau walk over it and, think of its flirnsy looking ap-' pearance and the way it sways back and forth, it gives you that feeling of going, going, gane, but we got aver ainiglit and then had ta make the return trip. But when you see so rnany ether people walking so drunk- Mie over it, it gives you a littie nýore confidence. If you are in Vancouver visit this spot and tvy it. The next day we went ta Crescent Beach about 30 or 40 miles away. This is a beautiful * sandy beach -bathing, fishing and boating are its chef attrac- tions. Many irom New West- minster and Vancouver spcnd their holidays there. We went Lback ta Vancouver, I taerny ho- tel and tlie next day back ta Seattle again. There I visited a j riend and was taken around the city on a sight-seeing trip. Seattlee h very hilly, lias a fine harbour, a goadiy nurnber ai municipal and state buildings, many good hotels. and seins ta be a very well kept city and la expanding in rnany directions. My ncxt place or intcrest was- Rainier National Park whîch hiaî 378 square miles aifinoun- tain sccnery. Mount Rainier is 14,408 feet higli. Paradise Inn, wherc I stayed. is situatcd in Paradîse Valley, se calleci be- cause long ago the Indians caine here ta worship as the mipuntain was their Gad. 'This Inn is 5,500 feet above sea le- vel. The drive up the mountain is very pictunesque, the road had rnany curves, winding back and forth, ever going higlier, travelling an ledgcs ai moun- tains, aven precaniaus looking bridges) seeing a water fal liere, a river bcd there where the water cames down in tor- rents wlien the mauntain snaw incîts.

On wt went-up-ip--up and as we went we saw a little snow novN and then and the higher wi got, mare and mare snow. We finaily rcached the mI and ta get into the main lobby we had ta go through a 10 toot tunnel af snow. It was 15 ie' high. There was snow every- where. Outside my bedrooir window there were banks eight or ten feet high. They gave me an electric heater ta heat my roarn which made it quite com- fontabie. I did not have nice weather there; it was raining and. cold but just before leav- ing the sun began ta shine. When it is fine you can take hikes and ga horseback riding. These are attended by a guide I was told there were some beauty spots wîthin walking distance and oChers iurther away when horseback riding. The evening I was there a natural- ist gW'e us a talk an wild ani- mais and after that the staff put an a very fine concert af Jmusic, singing, dancing and elocution. They ail did their parts well; it was a fine pro- gramn. On the mountain and around Paradise Inn there was mare snaw then usual at thîs turne of the year (July 20). The snow an Rainer Mountain is very deep in winter, as mucli as 20 or 30 feet in depth; in fact Paradise Inn is campletely buried. It is not a sinail build- ing either. I have a card show- ing proof af this. There is a store or curia shap in the Inn where you can get lunches and drinks-liard or sait ta suit every taste, also a spaciaus din- ing-room where they serve good meals. From what I saw I feit as though I wofiîd have liked ta stay a iew more days. Just as I was getting acquaint- ed I had ta leave and go back ta Seattle again. Seattle My Second Home Seattle seernedta be my sec- ond haine for the last week as I had stayed there three niglits on three different occasions. I had a lovely room taa, a won- derful vîew from *the window -church steeples, high chim- neys, buildings that had grawn taller than. others, ribbons ai road, criss-crossing each ather, autornobiles travelling here and there-yes, everything that'goes ta make up a big city. And then the night was mare beautiful than ever, with ail its myniads ai liglts-street liglits, liglit in the haines, nean signs scattered ail over and many seerned as if tliey were dancing a jig in their own little spheres. These nean lights seemed ta have al the colours ai the rainbow and mixed in with ail the ather. different hues made it really enclianting. This view must have covered several square miles or hundreds ai city blocks and having a room 14 stories high -gave me a niuch bette." view. A Bathroom Episode In my traveis I once stopped at a noorning house for tliree or four days and the second day there, tliree ladies carne in a car and they had a noom down at the end ai the hall. The saine evening I was going tai the bathroarn and whcn I open- cd the doon, there niglit in front ai mne-was it a ghost? No not a gliost, nothîng ta be airaid ai; was it a fairy? Na not a fairy, nothing sa iluffy or flim- sy; was it an apparition? Nat an apîearition, nothing out ai this wonld; was it a phantoin? No not a phantoin,it was real. No, none ai these, it was just a gaod looking lady standing there ail ready ta step inta the batlitub, one, wliom I arn sure, would have made a splendid model for the modern bathing suit. 0f course I quickly excus- cd mysl and backed out and then she locked the door which was a veny fooliali thing as fan as 1 was concerned, as I had no intention ai garng back there aqain just then. 0f course she did flot know that. 'But thg stary docs flot end here. The next day I went into a restaurant whicli had a large U counter, sat down and then looked across ta the ather side and thene wene the tlirce la- dies that roonicd down the hall fain me and wlien the one I saw ini the batliroom looked up and saw me she fainted; yes, pon thing. she faintcd. Naw this is the first f ime that I know of, that anybody ever iainted after getting a look at me. She must have thouglit that I look- cd like saine hideous, uncivil- ized monster tram sorne ather l di .5 a Fe Fe w )t et Government Issues Report On 1953 Farm Management Ed Summers -Has Copy For You The gros value of agrîculý- tural production in Ontario in 1953 did flot equal the high figures for- the live preedinig years' but-Borne farmers found they were able ta meet the cost price squeeze. by better faim -management leading to more efficient -production. The Department ai Agricul- tural Ecbnomics, Ontario Agri- cultural College, has just je- sued a report covering the eighth complete year of a farm accounting and management projeçt which was started by the Department iný 1946. The purpose of the project .is ta en- courage Ontario farmers ta keep accurate accauntu which they can use in the analysis of their farm business ahçI thus in- crae their. financial success. thsphase- ai farm aperatians is beomingincreasingly !m- portant as farmn cost rise and ducts -fail, says the Department. The basisaf the report was a detailed study ai the opera- tians ai 171 Ontario, farins la- cated in ý26 counties. Six types of farnilng were analyzed, and tour aif, tlese showed increases in labour incarné over 1952. It was a year with higli prices for hogs and reasonably tav- ourable pnices for poultry. The dairy specialty farmers receiv- ed a higher average labour in- carne also, and although the la- bour incarne on beef farina still showed a minus, the average was $700 higher than in 1952. The largest gain was 'in gen- eral hag tarrning, and the de- creases appeared in general dairy tarming and in cash crop world. Yes, poar thing- she tainted. Now, liad I'been a real gentleman I wbuld have gone and helped lier but if I had and she had corne ta and. saw me havering over, her, no doubt she would have taken heart tailure and, passed out, and I miglit have been arrested for niurder and neyer got home ta tell the tale. She carne toala- riglit as I saw them leaving ini their car the, next day and I neyer had a chance ta speak ta them. Ail this just because a lady did not lock her bathraom door. Mining Town of Butte My next stop was Spokane, Ljust aven niglit, sa was not 1there long enough ta know anything about it. The next overniglit stop was Butte, Mon- tana. This is a mining town, very hiily, with a reiinery riglit an a hull, almost in the tawn. I was told that mining was rather quiet at that tirne and many were out ai wonk. Then on ta, Grand Falls for an- ather niglit. Of this stapaver I cannot sayý mucli, for by the turne I had bookcd in and gat acquainted wlth my raomr and faund a place ta eat, for there was no dining-raom at the ho- tel, there was, nat much turne leit for sight-seeing. Indians Entertalu Our next stop was Glacier Park. Glacier Park Hotel was a very beautiful place and beautiiuily landseaped with flowens, shrubs, trees and grass. We had dinner there, then on ta Two Medicines Lak<e. This drive was very scenic. Here a boat was wait- ing for us whene we had an hour's cruise on the lake, then back ta the hatel in turne for aur evening meal. In the e*n- ing there was a company' ai Indians who put on the enter- taininent. There were Indian dances, singifig and music. It was something different and I arn sure ail enjayed it. 'rhere. were a iew lone stragglcrs like myself with whom I got ac- quainted and liad a pleasant turne talking with them until bcd turne. The next morning we leit fon Lake MacDonald which was also in the park. This drive ta Lake MacDonald was really wonder- ful, niding along the side ai the mauntain with great rocks and clius above and a very deep, wide valley beneath - saine- thing like Whitehorse Pasa be- tween Whitehorse and Skag- way only higlier, wider and deeper. It alrnast looked in saine places as if yau were risking your life just to sec beautiful scenery and who wouldn't, for it really was in- descnibable. Hene, at another hotel we had aur dinner, and if there had been tirne, we couid have taken another boat ride, but we had ta leave at 2.50 ion Beltan (West Entrance). I was wishing I could have stayed a tew more days in Gla- cier Park for the sccnery and the services were wondertul. I arn sure there were many pla- ces ai interest I dld not sec, es- pecially the Canadian part. Faces of Four Presidents Froin Belton I went baclc ta Great Falls for anather night's stop aven, then an ta Billings where I had dinnen, thent ta Rapid City, South Dakota. for the niglit. The next morning 1 went on a 120-mile tour aif the Black His. This was very in- teresting, especially the faces ai the Môur presidents-WVash- ingtan, Lincoln, Jefferson and ThcadQre Roasevelt - which, have been seulptured on the side ai Mount Rushmore by Gutzon Borglum. This la con- sidered anc ai the finest and most gigantic warks oi art ai its kind flic world has ever known. Each portrait la carved out af solid granite and mea- sures about 60 feet in height froin chin ta foreliead and is aven a mile high and toek over fourteen yeara (wlth lapses of uni avourable weather and tunds) ta complete it. To me it was tnightening ta think that mnen had ta hang aven that solid wall af rock ta work, suspendcd irom an ovrhead ca- bic, but best ai ail there was flot ane fatality in its construc- tion. (To b.eontinted aut wuk) iarmlng. States thc report: "The year 1953 perbaps empliasizes, the importance ai farin manage- ment and efficiency of opera- tian more than ever ta the farmens. The study shows that the mai anity ai the faims stu- died were able ta increase la- bour income aven the previaus year, thereby offsetting the ef- tfeet ai pnîce decline." The report deals wîth factors aifecting farin profits, sucli as size af business, faim reoeipts and expenses, crop production, labour efiiciency, and capital efficiency. Farmers who are engaged in the naislng ai hogs, dairy cattie, beef cattle, poul- try, and cash crops may- wish ta secure copies ai the -repart at the office ai 'the agicultural representative.
