from the senior rumble while 13yearold sharon will share the household duties with her mother when the rutablet first look ed over their new land they fouid a rough and stubby valley below the houe through it flowed a quiet stream quiet until in a mood of spring mad ness it assaulted the hillside and endangered the buildings above something had to be done and this was the first step toward the transformation farm in nearby vaughan to the j he lonc valle into ki present markham farm there community playground for was no electiicity plumbing or cex33 furnace in this houe and the grounds were

moving parts d i s t r 1 butor points have made 112 million contacts every spark plug has fired 14 million high voltage neil tatrick sparks the water pump has pump ed 400000 gallons of water the fuel pump 700 gallons of gas and each valve has opened and closed 14 million times that is why your engine needs a complete tuneup after this mileage to restore original per formance keep fuel economy at maximum and guard against engine failuie on the road to be effective a tuneup must he performed by a trained mech anic with the best equipment available he must usually re place the plugs clean the fuel pump sediment bowl check fuel pump pressure and adjust valve lash the points and condenser must be replad and the new points set for the proper open ing a gauge check of the tim ing and electrical system must be made with necessary adjust ments to both a quality tuneup involves several hours work and there are po shortcuts possible if the iob is to be done properly ob viously short cuts all the way down to a quick check of points and plugs can be made by a garage interested only in turn ing out a bargainpriced job but this kind of job is no bar gain it is throwing money away while the essential vvoik of retuning your engine goes un done your only bargain is in buying quality service mi patrick motors ud slouffvide for svvimming stewart built two successive dams which were effective only until the spring floods washed them out when they investigated professional services for dambuilding they found it beyond their means and in 195 decided on a by pass pond a drag line was ued to dig the 200 by 200foot pond j and a bulldozer to level it a dam of earth and stones was erected acioss the stream above this was laid an inflow pipe and lower downstream an outflow pipe to control the level of the pond which at its deep est end is 5vi feet the pond has been primal ily a pleasuie stewart said be cause as a family we enjoy skating svvimming and ashing there are conservation benefits too it is a water reset voir pio- vides fire pi otection and it could be used for irrigation stewart mowed the grass on the field beside the pond and made a ball diamond that has since lesounded to the cheers and boos for home runs and stiikeouts made by local teams neighboring child en were en couraged to come to swim in the pond between two and four o clock in the afternoon while sharon who has her red cioss certificate supei vised the little valley has been the site of many headford sunday school picnics family teunions and school paities stewart built picnic tables boats and a taft to provide pleasuie for visitors a meiry- goround was added for the children and two chicken hous es- were cleaned up and placed beside the pond as change cab ins for the swimmers and

precisionspun ih twine hs the quality standard of the world made in canado and best for ony baler a a wall agricultural rep resentative for york count i was a little surprised last week to find a few farmers with hay already cut the import ance of cutting hay early has been preached for several yeais and for nutritious feed the ear ly crop is certainly away ahead still when you see hay out down in may with no bloom on the alfalfa you wonder if you can get too much of a good thing tests have shown that he highest yield fiom a hay jciop comes aiound the last week of june sometime after full bloom of both timothy and 1 alfalfa the digestibility of couise is just about the oppo- site of total yield the best hay is cut around the 1st of june i bcfoie alfalfa bloom j the best time to cut hay then is somewhere in between these two eticmes tests have shown j that this is when timothy is fully headed but has not bloom ed or when alfalfa is about half in bloom normally this happens around june 15th the right time to cut hay then is on june 15th practise of course doesnt permit all hay to be cut at once the plan should be to cut half the crop before this date and half after the middle of june so that the average will be about right if it takes about four weeks to get the hay in those who have already be gun aie tight on schedule the early aftermath from the first few fields will also make very useful pastuie later on alfalfa is worth its weight in gold in a dry year like this the yield on older stands with little or no alfalfa doesnt look very promising now good mixtures on the other hand should put up fair yields the level of pot ash in the soil has a lot to do with keeping alfalfa going for a long time again in- a dry year low potash will affect alf alfa small white or yellow spots on the margins of the leaves indicate that the ciop needs more potash and the plants have a poor chance of surviving another winter if they dont get it spring grain on some fields doesnt look good this year spotty uneven thin growth is fairly common not enough rain or seed with poor germination are the most likely causes and there is no cure for either there might be one other cause wheie poor patches of grain occur in oats the oat namatode is be coming more prevalent the damage is usually found in patches and poorly colored stunted plantsr aie the obvious symptoms again there is no cure but those who have a nem atode problem should recognize it lots of fertilizer will help to compensate for the root dam age done by this small insect but if it gets bad enough the only answer is to grow hay corn or wheat instead of oats this is national water safe ty week anglers your red cross leminds you to keep your head during the excitement of landing that whopper play safe dont
