stat- icians have it all figured out that if the purchase of trailers continues at the present rate for 1012 or 15 years the entire continent will be on wheels and no one will have a fixed abode municipalities will de cay property values will disappear and life will be completely changed last year probaby saw the trailers at the peak of their expansion this year will see the trailers face to face with problems that were overlooked by the more enthusiastic forecasters a year ago already municipalities all over the continent are imposing more rigid measures of control upon trailer camps state and provincial governments will add their own re gulations as trailers interfere with the normal life of permanent resi dents of different areas and as they cut into provincial and state reven ues the trailer sorves a most use ful purpose in adding enjoyment and interest to a vacation but once let the trailer interfere with property values or public revenues and it will immediately be made

nearly 5000 considerably inexcess of previous years purses oyer coo competitors are ex pected to enter the matches this year it was stated and while a large proportion of this total will be from western ontario of which fergus is practically the geographic al centre a great number of contest ants will be farmers from eastern ontario who will repay the visit of their western ontario brothers made last year when the competition was held at cornwall near on tarios eastern boundary still another large contingent of visitors is anticipated from the united states based on the many who crossed

happy and prosperous people stalk silently the hills and ravines of this southwestern saskatchewan area drouth- withered sucked dry by incessant winds today stands well within the feared dust- bowl that once was situated well to the east last year it suffered the first com plete crop failure in its history culminating five years that each saw the wheat yield grow less and less blasting the hope that springs from having hit the depressions uttermost depths this year again sees the shaunavon area facing 100 per cent crop loss a few weeks ago there was a dust storm which the ratcliff party passed through it lasted hours the worst in 30 years i never dreamed there could be a storm like that said one farmer who has lived there three decades hand invisible at anns length he opened the door of his home held up his hand at arms length it was invisible wind every day for a month and a half dust blizzards that surch he last particle of moisture from the soil pile the lighter land into desert dunes kill groves of 10 and 12 foot trees driving gales that impreg nate meagre feed stacks with aard silt dirt pounded into the stacks a yard deep on all sides last fall they told of building new fences on top of old ones buried in sand this year shifting winds have blown away the sand that buried the old posts left the new fences hang ing in the air so that cattle can walk underneath even the brave blades of short new- grass jerk in the wind tiny festoons of microscopic dust clinging to them no longer is it possible say some farmers to tell the age of horses or cows by looking at the grooves on the teeth long months of grazing on dus encrusted grass have ground the teeth down as smooth as if the work had been done with an emery wheel a soaking rain before june 15 might save a portion of the crop at the outset 20 percent below normal as despairing farmers refused to sow grain under such conditions unless there is a heavy rain within a month there wont be even feed or seed less than one inch of rain has fallen so far this year 7000 bushels on 200 farms in a locality where once the grain yield was estimated in millions of bushels last fall 200 farmers harvest ed 7000 bushels or about 35 hushals for each farm strip farming pioneer ed in the shaunavon area has stood up well under this killing test but even strip farms cant grow crops with no rain and strips dont stop one mans soil from blowing onto his neighbors land this fall farmers will not even summerfallow their land if they follow expert advice further agita tion of already parched soil would only aggravate blowing whereas in past years the summerfallow system formed the basis of all farming and how about the people last year most of them tightened their grip said they could take it on the chin but there was an abnor mal amount of radical talk of treks to regina even revolution as desperate men yielded to fears natural reaction to fight this year that has changed to a large degree despondency hitherlc unequalled has made oven violent radicalism seem a little ridiculous hard words about relief officials at some of their meetings wild statements even yet make full use of democracys rights one man talks of a government relief offi cial he should have been strung up to a telephone pole six months ago but these things are not of the district although they are in it imbre reasonable men smile at them as they smiled this spring at talk of a farmers sitdown strike an- understanding born of grim despair prompts them to appreci ate much more than in recent years the difficulties of others particularly the government it prompts them too to spot loopholes and fallacies in quicklyhatched ana underdone schemes broached as curealls for their troubles they realize it seems that their fight is against something far bigger than any government even if that govern ment was as inapt and idiotic as some would have you believe one notable result has been that each year has been the urge to move out of the district cut higher and higher into the brackets of farmers and business men alike the poor farmers went first each year better farmers followed them this year low
