W xoostmg each other, the top was inl]l{i}uched. Some large caves were discovered along the gp. The trip back from the hills for lunch was made in record time. Wood was cpllected â€" and a fire built beside the stream. Hot dogs and pork and beans were cooked and éaten. The Cubs seemed anxious. to get around to the chocolate cake, one of the mothers had made. There just wasn‘t any room left «for the watermelon so that was saved for supper. The afternoon was spent locating a forty foot _waterâ€"fall which the Cubs climbed. behind, getting slightly damp from the spray. On the way back to our base we found a baby gorcupine which was so frightened that it thought: Bobby Woods‘ leg was a trée and tried to climb it. The latter part of the afternoon was :Eent by the Cubs in a row boat, > ere was keen dislp})ointment * becaute it was too cool for swimâ€" ming. The evening meal of stew, ¢hocolate cake and watermélon was eaten by a pretty tired bunch, Cubmaster and assistant included. ‘There was a few sdongs sung on the way home, but when a lonfi gilence came,.

The Green Six Visits Dunedin 2ne by a stream and then set out ot a new adventure, mountiin elimbing, with Akela and her asâ€" sistant, Don Mcintyre. Several ground hogs were encountered on the first part of the climb. Don tried ‘his luck with a good bow and arrow but they are still safe unâ€" We opened our meeting on June 17 with a knot tying competition, each Brownie graduating to the next class when she had tied a â€"kriot and knew its name and use. Lyrine Williams won the contest, ¢losety. followed by four other eager Brownies. As we received replies from our Pen Pals in Engâ€" land, we spent some time in writâ€" g: "Round Robin" â€"letters, the gach writing a little bit, gignifig their names. Marilyn was senfolled by our Ofiifl Miss Edith Moor, Joyce illfn was presented her golden bar.

From then on the Scouts lost no time in. getting under{way with ?uilding their troop campsites. In act from ‘the time of the first flagbreak until the last flag lowerâ€" ing, marking the end of this year‘s camporee, the Scouts and Scouters had a very busy time. Because of time, ‘a more detailed report on the many Scout and Cub activities will have to us;z:r in next week‘s issue of the t column. ‘ Evéry Cub, Scout and Scouter in fhe Humber Valley district atâ€" less they werescared to deathy Towards the top of mn the going became er as they had to climb up rocky ledges with many loose bolders to watch and branches that came away in their hands, but with co+ eperation, pushing, pulling and happy thatâ€" our visitors helped F‘:&' the picnic m?‘r on Sunm ming‘ an outstanding success.

From our point of view the outstanding feature. of the camporee was the wonderful support that was evidenced fbr{ the great number of parents, friends and visitors who came to see the flm &oFfi and Cubs in action. l1 of us in the district appreciâ€" atéd this and we were espécially *Be Prepared‘ District These machines must,. of course, be rented from contractors. At first glance, the prevailing rental rate, $7 to $10 per hour, would seem rather expensive. The amount of farm improvement work that can be done by this equipment "in an hour, however, lowers the cost to a point where it is practical and economical. § e Cleaning out fence bottomsâ€" chokecherries, thorns, wild apples, etc.,. can be cleared from old fente bottoms at approximately 175 feet ‘per hour. â€" O3 Burying stone Ieche bottomsâ€"In many sections of the province stones are piled in the fences. When it is desirable to remove such a fence, then stones become a probâ€" lem. Stone fence bottoms 8 feet wide at base and 5 feet high can be burjed at approximately 75 feet per hour. â€"for the most &artâ€"with modern machinery. H.;.W. Kitching, assistâ€" ant . professor at: the agricultural engineering . department! of the O.A.C.; outlines some of the uses construction machinery can be put to when used on the farm. , Farmers throughout the province are beginning to realize that the seemingly mitacles of construction accomplished by heavy machinery in the‘ building of airpérts and roads can be made use of,ip agriâ€" culture. Such jobs as removing stone piles, burying stone fence bottoms, cleaning out brush from fence bottoms, digging stock waterâ€" ing ponds and many other types. of work which by ordinary means, and with machines at the farmer‘s disâ€" posal are too slow and expensive a. task, can quickly and easily be accomplished by large track type tractors equipped with bulldozers| The following are examples of the type of work being done with the time required u%uerage conditions for each: ’ A“TQin some sections there are a number of gtone pileg in fields; Apile 35 feet in diameter and ‘6 feet high can be completely buried under at least 2 feet of éarth in 5 hours. . P Improving rough %ߤture landâ€" Stumps, stones,=scru ygrowth, hilâ€" locks, e&.. can quickly" and easily be remSved so that land may be plowed and reseeded. _ Gone are the ‘days when oxen and horses could be relied }‘xgon to do all the heavy work on CZnadian farms, and they have been replaced Digging farm pondsâ€"A stock watering pond 50 feet in diameter and 10 feet deep can be dug in 5 hours. Improving open ditchesâ€"Many farm ditches are operating very inefficiently due to growth of cat: tails, willows, etc., in them. These can quickly be cleaned out by a bulldozer in a dry season. In addition to these there are many other job$ such as improving barn gangways, levelliff barnâ€" This Saturday, June 22, will be a big day for model builders when the T.
