Citrus Grove By RGS ARRIVED DESTINATION After spending some time visiting down the line of travel along the western highways and wbidr leads from north ern NHchigan to southern Flor ida and come close to most of the places along the way we missed most of the twisting mountain roads We travelled the 1800 miles between our home on the Bay at Barrio to the place here which will be ours for the next three months or more We spent Monday night in St Pet ersburg with friends consoling them with the fact that we would be on the other side of the State this winter but would be with them at frequent inter vals On arrival we checked with the services to have facilities connected so we could begin housekeeping The home we have belongs to Barrie cou ple who are prevented from making use of it this year We are finding it suitable for our needs and with room to spare in case any of our northern friends drop in TREES FROSTBITTEN The frost has been unkind to some of the young citrus trees We drove past groves where the trees up to three or four years of age had their leaves turned brown by frost This is blow to those who have spent lot of money clearing the land and setting out the new groves Todays weather reports say that frost as far south as half of Florida may be as low as 20 degrees and unprotected radiators may be subject to frost damage That IS cold down this way Yesterday at Orlando the temperature was 73 degrees The clouds today may save the fruit trees Here they have protective smoke distributors placed near windmills driven by engines Near us there is located the Citrus Tower From there one can see miles of citrus trees loaded with fruit Truclsrun on the highways day and night taking the fruit to packing and juicemaking plants However before the fruit is loaded it has to be picked by hand Pickv lng an orange off tree is not just like removing an apple It takes decided twist to get it loose Pickers reach the fruit from ladders but it is all hand work and the crews are in demand at this time We will have story for you on the lnnisfil inauguration meeting at later date Copies of Tire Examiner up to last Fri day were waiting for us on ar rival so we are keeping up with the things going on at home On Monday we stopped for fish dinner at the same time as the guests of the Reeve would be eating their dinner at the Holly Church We hoped that we were being missed and must admit we felt guilty at not being there But having heard of the winter weather which had arrived we felt the sun was much more enjoyable LETTERS APPRECIATE We will be glad to hear from anyone who will take little time off to drop us line and send it to us at Stroud post office They will be forwarded from there by air mail and we will be interested to have news which you may know and we have missed Some of those we would be glad to hear from would be shutins and others the are watching the world go past from warm corner and have seen or heard things which are interesting Roy Hickling is one we have in mind and hope he has still got the writing abil ity he had last year We are sorry we did not call on him and on Mri Drury before we left FLORIDA HURRICANE

LOWRATES Guaranteed Workmanship festive must be controlled and inspected he said The contemporary question of How does Britain see the chal lenge in the economic develop ment in the world was dealt with by Mr Samples The greatest phenomenon since the war is the new na tions reaching independence and nationhood he said The people within the new coun tries are very poor by our stan dards and identify independ ence with industrial revolution explained Mr Samples They expect to produce miracle overnight he said If we dont help these coun tries some less friendly nation will for some reason or other he warned Mr Samples describedBri tains decision to begin negot iating entry into the Common Market as probably the most vital decision in thelast 100 years He quoted Lord Privy Seal Heath as saying that the Com mon Market is the only con structive thing going on in the world today and is thus worth looking into The rate of growth within the Common Market is higher than even the United States said Mr Samples We are expanding to meet the needs of everyone he said It is matter of thinking big and plan ning long Mr Samples admitted there will be painful readjustments for Britain and
