The column lists funeral attendance in Lunenburg and Gerald, visits by Irene Eddie and Jackie to The Pas, and returns from Edmonton. It details multiple summer visits to farms and towns, 4H meetings, garden club events, and weekly social gatherings at homes of Northcott, Jaeger, Jolson, Gareau, and McFarlane families.
A well planned field shelter belt system benefits individual farms by slowing heat waves and warming soils earlier in spring while staying warm through summer. A single row of mixed ash elm and caragana can shield windward for 10 feet per foot of height and leeward for 20 feet per foot, with rows every 40 rods providing protection. Weed control in belts is crucial early on, and methods include removing center sweeps to weed both sides, side delivery rakes, and post establishment chemical treatments costing 2.50 to 7.50 per foot mile. A local tree planting program meeting will be announced soon.
Al Morgan, former The Pas resident and Marshall Wells sales representative, is appointed manager of Cochrane's hardware outlet in Thompson. He previously led a Port Arthur hardware outlet after leaving The Pas about two years ago and has now assumed duties in Thompson.
