Editor: Robert Corbett, phone 2589 5 Phone 703, All Departments "Ice-Cream Roll' Hay Baler Makes Haying Easy Now 'out at the back. A new wrinkle in farming is the way hay is being 'baled on Bokar arm these days. _windrows have been ingested by a "which packs them up in a cylindrical When The Times-Gazette visited the farm the other day Jack Sedman ofg For the past week the ew-fanglea machine i and kicks them . Whitby, who has worked for Bob von Pilis for a good many years now, was running the tractor up the windrow with one hand, and opperating the Roto-baler with the _other. . The finished bale is tightly pack- "ed, about four feet in length and radius of about one foot. It looks like a gigantic ice-cream role. Mr. von Pilis explained how the new -machine works and why he bought «At. Like all modern machinery, it «saves time and labor. One man can operate it where three men would "~be needed to load hay some other way or to bale it in square bales. The baler can handle up to 180 bales per hour, working from the power take-off of: the tractor. When the bundles lie finished all over the field it is an easy matter to Joad them on a truck and pack {them away in the barn. No slings { are used. + If rain comes while the round + bales are still in the field there } is not much fear of damage. The s+ heaviest rain only can sink in an {inch or two and because of the cir- { cular shape of the bale, much of tit runs off which would sink right » through a square bale. As. the tractor goes along the windrow, the hay is picked up on the feeder table ramp and fed in- Garden Club To be Subject In Magazine Next issue of, "Community Courier," a magaZine issued by the Department of Education and devoted to community re- creation will carry an article on Whitby Garden - Club and its parent organization, the Recre- ational Association. It will il- lustrate the article with a pic- ture recently published in The Times-Gazette of winners of the Garden Club's bird house build- ing contest, comes to an abrupt stop while the roll is" ejected. Binder twine is used instead of baling wire, with three hanks of twine around each bundle. More than twice as-much hay can be put on a load than if it were loose. Only objection to the new baler: the kids say it takes a lot of fun | out of farming. They used to like to a neat pack, then the machine| to ride on the hay rack. Junior Theatre Group Ready For Demonstration ; Though they never make serious inroads into Arthur : Murray's learn-to-dance business, there is a group of local ichildren who are having a lot of fun every Saturday and 'learning poise, self-confidence -and the useful arts of sing- ;ing and dancing. Mrs. Anne Wilson's Theatre group will close for the » summer season next Saturday when i they put on a demonstration in 'the j town hall at three o'clock, Parents and friends of the 40-odd young- J sters should attend. They will see children from five to 14 doing many : interesting things. Though it may { sound trite the children are being i shown many forms of self-expres- : sion. + The director has always felt that 'education should be fun and fun ;should be educational, To young- *sters this age, even ballet dancing is fun. It furnishes an opportunity to acquire co-ordination of mind and body, rhythm, self-confidence, igrace of movement, grace of man- 'ner, And these children are exposed 'to good music, interpretive music :which may well form a basis for 'their future musical education or {leisure entertainment. In all the songs, the director thas stressed interpretive gestures sand proper vocal expression. Even games are a part of the compre- 'hensive Junior Theatre program > Junior (not to mention the elaborate play production this group staged last Spring). Watching. the group it could be | seen that some take very naturally to dancing adult steps and two eight-year-old girls gét in a little Jitterbuging on the side though that is not encouraged.

The local club sent another man around the circuit in the fifth, again to be followed with a run by Colborne, deadlocking the game once more, In the sixth "Lefty" Bryant re- placed Quantrill, who seemed to be having trouble pitching to Col- borne's six left-handed batters, and Knibb was pulled in favor of Hodg- son, who went second and Mayne to cf.

Never in trouble after a big four- run splurge in the fourth, Whitby came up with their best game of the season and should be tough to beat from here on in.

Fill it with a solution of lead arsenate or calcium arsenate and point it at Winnipeg's maple @gnd elm trees. They're being storffled by leaf-eat- ing cankerworms. Professor A. V, Mitchener of the University of Manitoba department of entomology reports that the trees in city parks perhaps are be- ing attacked by the small green worms, and said that "these worms are doubtless present elsewhere. 'They can easily be killed off while in their first early stages, and although they are only eating small holes in the leaves just now, they'll strip the trees bare if they aren't exterminated." | Reports from all over Manitoba that blue spruce and pine trees are dying .of blight were checked by the provincial forest laboratory at the University of Manitoba. Officials there stated that these trees are suffering from winter weather con- ditions combined with the recent warm spells which have come over the province. This was confirmed by the fores- try service department which says the coniferous trees have evapor- ated moisture through their needles during the warm weather, but are not able to draw up fresh water from the ground as it is still frozen. Edmonton Reporter Wins Essay Contest Edmonton -- (CP) -- Son of a veteran newspaper man, E. R. (Ted) Horton, Edmonton Bulletin staff reporter, was the winner of the Alberta government's recent 'tourist essay contest. Horton's essay, "If Jasper House Came Back" won for him the first prize of $300 and a gold medal. The contest was international in scope, attracting entries from all parts of Canada and the United States. Horton was born at Vegreville, Alta, the son of A. L. Horton, vet: eran owner and editor of the Veg- reville Observer, one of the best- known weeklies in the province. PINK SLIP LAW Victoria -- (CP) -- Resicents of British Columbia are happy that certain regulations affecting tour- ists in the province's automobile insurance act have been eased. Vis- iters from the neighboring state of Washington had come to refer to it as the "pink slip" law.

Swimming Pool to Have Filter A filter system will be employed in Whitby's new swimming pool, it has been decided. Keeping water pure is expensive but absolutely necessary nowadays according to advice from the department of health. Parents are {therefore as- sured that when they contribute to the swimming pool fund, every precaution is being taken to guard the health of their children. Whit- by children's swimming pool will be sanitary. Too often a swimming pool is considered merely as a water-proof tank to store water. This is a wrong point of view. There were two methods considered here for keeping the water pure, the {fill- and-draw method and the refilter- ing and circulating method. With the former, the pool would be filled directly from the town water supply and the water would remain in the pool until washed down the sewer. Naturally the pollution of the pool would be progressive as the dirt, bacteria, lint, etc. taken into the water and washed in from the sides is cumulative in effect. The method is uneconomical also. However, the filter method, fil- ters and sterilizes the pool water. The capacity of the equipment to be used is such that the maximum time for circulation of the entire contents of the pool is not over 18 hours and scmetimes much less. Properly filtered and sterilized swimming pool water is actually purer than the average tap water supply and passes health require- ments for drinking!
