We got the best meals here since we left home and England. Oxen are used for everything. Very few horses are seen. They draw from a bar fastened on their foreheads. We leave in the morning for Switzer- land, but you have no further time in your harvet season to spend over my comments written hm'riedly but yet. in an effort, feeble though it be, to remind you of Grey County, I still think of you all. We will soon be home again. written in Paris for yesterday we cros- sed the French-Sfltaerland border at Vallorbe. Our party is gradually de- clining for on Tuesday, August 18th, 30 leit for Italy where a couple additional weeks will be spent. Our party passed through. Switzerland and thence to France. In the short resume of Germany many things were not mentioned but these will be dealt with at some future time. Valuable ideas to our Grey Goun- ty people were gathered. I liked Ger- Switzerland is a land of mountain and valley; of hill and~ dale; lake and stream. The scenery is unsurpassed except in the Canadian Rockies. It is. therefore. a land of summer and winter Pram an agricultural point of view. Switzerland is the most diflicult of all. countries visited. The farms are small little patches or land. These little al- lotments extend to the top of many of the mountains or as high as any growth is seen. Above extends the bare rock for varying distances. Wherever the land is too steep or too high, the sheep and cattle are pastured on it in the summer time and then brought down to the villages in the winter time. The information was also gleaned that in some districts the cows,‘ sheep or goats were driven into the mountains. A iew of the family accompanied the animals and make the many varieties of cheese for which Switzerland is famous. Note that sheep's milk is also used. Some of the family were left behind. These harvested the hay to feed the cattle. It may surprise Grey County pe0ple to know that this past week we passed through districts where the farmers were cutting their second crop of clover and timothy. More mowers were seen than on any part of the con- tinent and the occasional side delivery rake was operating in the fields. For the most part, however, the hay was cut with a scythe. It is like ours except that the blade is wider. The handle or snath is straight thereby dif- fering from ours. Projections for han- dles are fastened to it. On some were curved wires which transformed it into a miniature cradle. The hay, where the contour of the land permitted was drawn in to the little barns by oxen. In the more rolling districts from the train window we saw the women and children gath- ering the hay into heaps placed upon ropes which the men tied up and car- ried to the little hay storages or lofts. By the way, it was in Switzerland where we noticed the first bank barns. They are very small but the front of the building was the dwelling and the back part the stable and hay storage above. At all little stations along the way could be seen the warehouses of bran or other grains for the feeding of stock. Handling of manure in Switzerland is the greatest system of conservation. A rather thin soil, small area and high farm values has taught the Swiss farm- er that his greatest asset is the natural fertilizer produced on his farm. Never carelessly thrown manure pile seen. caelessly thrown manure pile seen. Each one was built carefully, compact- ly and levelled off. Very little was een in the yards or fields. But that was not all. At the lower side of the pile was a pit into which all the liquids from the pile drained. From the appearance of the construc- tion there is also a drain from the stable so that any liquids not absorbed by the hay, or straw not eaten by the stock or the peat frequently used for absorbent flows through the drain into the pit. The liquid manure is drawn to the fields in tanks where the farmer owns one. It is dipped or pumped out into the tank and in the field is again dip- ped out and thrown over the land. It the farm was not large enough to af-' ford a tank a box on a wheel barrow was utilized. Swiss farmers are energetic. They are extremely careful. Everyone is happy though their work is much harderthaninCanadaasthereisso 'much hand labor. The extreme rolling nature of the farms forces continuous climbing in most of the country. The level volleys certainly do not cover any crest proportion of the country. Germany is passed and Switzerland (pontgnued from _ page 6.)

Needless to say we have enjoyed our sojourn abroad, nevertheless we have always compared the things with conditions in Canada and can truthfully say we ap- preciate Canada the more for having visited elsewhere. We would like to have the possibilities to bring all Grey County farmers over the trip. their relatives. the Manny family.

The Continuation and Public schools are having a Field day on Friday, Sep- tember 19th. The public is invited. A very pleasant social evening was spent at the home of Mr. William Nel- son on Friday, September 5, when the adult Bible class of the Presbyterian church and a few other friends met to present Mrs. George Smith nee Elda Manary with a silver flower basket. At the service on Sunday morning in the United church a much appreciated duet was rendered by Miss Olive West of Homing’s Mills and Mr. Eric Sharpe. For some time people in the village have been having chickens killed by an animal supposed to be a dog. One night last week Mr. G. Calder had over ninety well grown chickens killed. Dear Friendâ€"We, the members of the Holstein adult Bible class together with a few other friends have met here to wish you and your husband a bon voyage through life in your new and sacred relationship. For a number of years you have been one of our most faithful and therefore, valued members. You also acted as secretary for \ us during the greater portion of this per- iod. We are going to miss you. but our loss will be a gain for others as we feel assured you will continue to show your interest in Bible study in the neighboring church. In your parent’s home you have pro- ved to be an ideal daughter and a wholesome example of devotion and in- terest that every young girl in the vil- lage and community might well follow with profit. May we now have the pleasure of your acceptance of this small gift which we proffer to you as a token of our esteem and we pray that you will ever look beyond its smallness to the rich- ness of appreciation in the hearts of the doners, for your own dear self. During the season of bloom may your garden provide bountifully to adorn our memento and every day all the year round and every year in the garden of your heart may God continue to produce beautiful thoughts as fragrant as the sweet scented rose, blossoming out into words and deeds of kindness. Our united desires for you and Mr. Smith are many years of mutual hap- piness and helpfulness and finally when earth’s alloted tasks for each and all are accomplished we may all be found around the throne of him whose ban- ner is love. A very enjoyable evening of games and songs was followed by a dainty lunch after which all joined in singing “God be with you till we meet again.” (Our Own Correspondent) Threshing is the order of the day around here.
