After giving up the general store which she and her husband operated, she decided to take up the hobby. She credits much of her collection to friends and relatives and said her son, Edward, has given her more than 45 pairs. She exchanges sets with collectors in Germany, England, the United States, Ontario and Ireland.

Mrs. Ferleyko has kept a visitors' book for thoso who have called on her to see her collection and the book contains many names of persons from all parts of Canada. Edmonton film chosen best at Yorkton festival At the time of the Boer War, he served in the British army from 1896 until 1902, under Queen Victoria and Edward VII. In 1903, he moved to Lylcton, Man. He came to Carievale in 1907 and moved to the farm in 1935.

In October, 1910, he married Duella Merl Kimmerly, a native of the south Carle-vale district, who lives in Sunset Haven at Camduff. Their son, Walter is on the home farm, Edwin lives at Edmonton and Ken and Ralph farm in the Carievale district. Their daughters, Mrs. Jean Harris and Mrs. Hilda Sleeves live at Camduff and Mrs.

Clara MacLeod lives in By PAT ARMSTRONG L-P Correspondent CARIEVALE When Ed Olney, the tree planter, was buried recently in a small cemetery near here, he left behind an unusual legacy for the future. Leading to the farm yard and around the well-kept buildings where he once lived, are 15,000 or more trees of many varieties planted by Mr. Olney. Near the buildings on Antler Creek in the mid-1940s there stood one lone willow tree but Ed Olney, 70, began to change the landscape. It happened by accident in 1946, when nearby Workman School received an order of 200 maples and 200 poplar trees.

The school grounds had not been prepared for them so Mr. Olney took the trees. They grew and so did Mr. OIney's interest and enthusiasm. During 1948 and 1949, more than 12,000 trees were planted along the driveway in the farmyard and around the garden.

Varieties were Russian poplar, Manitoba maple, elm, ash, carrigana, weeping birch mountain ash, Colorado blue spruce, apples, crabapples, plums and even a pear tree grew. With sandy soil and water hauled from the Antler creek they passed through their crucial infancy, A man from Caryle Lake had first suggested the tree idea but Mr. Olney was skeptical. He and his son, Walter, just returned from the Army overseas, drew up a plan. The Indian Head Forestry Station approved the blueprint and they ordered their first trees.

At an age when other men retired or were thinking of it, Mr. Olney launched a tree hobby on a large scale. He added two- to three-acre vegetable garden project and with water pumped from the Antler creek, the garden flourished. Neighbors shared in the harvest. Born in England, Mr.

Of course, no matter which organization is in charge, in a community the size of Tompkins it is usually the same group of women anyway and Mr. Kimber's wife, Dolly, is right in there cooking her 15 pounds of stew meat with the rest of them. Strong livestock prices predicted by Whelan Liberal Leader Steuart said re-organization of 61 new provincial constituency associations and nomination of all candidates will bo two of the main party activities in the coming year. Mr. Steuart was speaking in Radville, southwest of Wey-bum, to the first annual meet ing of the Bengough-Mllestone constituency Liberal Association.

"The Liberal Party has never been more sound in terms of organization. Membership is up and constituencies are being reorganized according to the proposed new boundaries expected to be legislated this fall," Mr. Steuart said. He noted high attendance at all meetings and a greater willingness to work than ever shown before, but be also said the next provincial election cannot be won on organization alone. "We have to look at policies and programs in relation to our principles and we must formulate a platform that can relate to the people." He stressed the Importance of all Liberals attending the party convention to be held Nov.

8, 9 and 10 In Saskatoon. Anyone attending the convention will bei able to vote on policy resolutions, he said. "This is what our provincial convention is all about." "This is a platform convention and possibly the last one before the next provincial election. I don't intend to fight the election on policies that have been dreamed up in the back rooms in Regina," Mr. Steuart said.

Telephone services extended Direct -dial long distance telephone service has been extended to Buffalo Narrows and Ile-a-la-Crosse. La Loche will get local telephone service early next year and the direct-dial system by next fall, A. G. Thomas, assistant general manager of operations for Sask Tel said. Mr.

Thomas said Beauval will get a local dial office in March, 1974. Sask Tel has plans for extending a microwave system into the Wollas-ton Lake area. Before the extension of service, calls to Buffalo Narrows had to go through the department of natural resources' high frequency link, a long-range broadcast network. Ile-la-Crosse had a dial service but was not connected to the tone network. Long distance calls were made via a micro-wave system at Meadow Lake.

Naming honors Swallow YORKTON (Staff) Swallow Beach, on the south end of Good Spirit Lake, has been named after Arthur Swallow, former MLA for Yorkton. Presenting a scroll to Mr. Swallow, Irving Carlson, MLA for Yorkton, said the beach will be developed by the natural resources department to expand the recreational facilities in Good Spirit Provincial Park. It is appropriate that the beach should be named after Mr. Swallow as he has taken a keen interest in the development of the park.

At the time Mr. Swallow was elected in 1944 there were no parks and recreation branch and the responsibility for work at the park fell on the shoulders of the MLA. Mr. Swallow personally hired personnel and supervised the work in the park in the early days of its development, Mr. Carlson said.

Mr. Swallow was the CCF member for Yorkton from 1944 to 1956. In 1944, the Yorkton constituency included Good Spirit Provincial Park. A formal ceremony with the unveiling of an appropriate landmark will be held at a later date at the time Swallow Beach is developed, Mr. Carlson said.

He is a member of the Alberta and Ontario bars. He joined the justice department in Ottawa in 1951 and served seven years as a combines investigation officer.

In August, 1969 he was appointed director ol legal services for the manpower and immigration department. He has a wide background in industrial property law and as a legal draftsman in the public service and with private law firms. GULL LAKE (Special) For about 20 years, an annual event has taken place at Tompkins which is not just an ordinary event. A lamb stew supper is held at the time of the annual ewe and ram sale at the Tompkins stockyards and is always attended by more than 200 persons from the four Western provinces and Ontario. The supper was discontinued only once during those years and the buyers were so disappointed the decision was made to continue the supper.

This year, the price is $2 and includes eating all you can with homemade pies for dessert. Plates are loaded with potatoes, turnips, peas and the lamb stew with its rich gravy, carrots and celery. Clem Kimber, a local sheep rancher, donates the lamb each year and it takes three lambs to make the stew. That is about 140 pounds of cut up meat. Mr.

Kimber butchers the animals and then helps the women cut in stew-size pieces. Each woman will take home about 15 pounds of stew meat and bring it' back ready for the table. The vegetables are cooked at the Memorial WINDTHORST (Special) -Human Rights was the theme of the convention-institute held here by the Regina East Teachers' Association, with 82 teachers registering.

YORKTON (Staff)-Markets for beef and hogs will be strong and prices will be good for the next eight to 12 months, Agriculture Minister Eugene Whelan predicted here Saturday night at a rural-urban banquet, jointly sponsored by the Yorkton Chamber of Commerce and the Yorkton Agricultural Society.

There is a strong temptation to sell off beef and hogs and stick to grain because grain prices and demand are better Aid to hospital up to $3.3 million Provincial assistance toward "a renovation and construction project at Battle-fords Union Hospital has been increased by $1.2 million bringing the total to $3.3 million. When the original provincial grant was set, it was estimated the project would cost $4.7 million. Tenders boosted the estimate to more than $7 million. today than ever before, he said. This is a short-sighted approach and could lead to difficulty in the future, for world trade in grain can change sharply but the trade pattern in beef and pork are steadier, he said.

Mr. Whelan said is is obvious world demand is growing for meat and people all over the world have more money than ever to spend on food. World currencies are changing and people in Europe and Japan find their money is worth more and they can afford meat. The new national feed grains policy meets the several basic changes asked by farmers across the country, he said. It provides a better chance to market their crops on their own without having to resort to bootlegging or other under-the-table deals to turn grain into cash.

Barriers have been dropped to enable grain to move from one province to another within the Prairies. Saskatchewan is no longer an is- United Way needs $708,000 CARPETS AND FURNITURE CLUNEn 1 in your horn tht "flower-fresh" way ty Duraclean land surrounded by livestock producers who want to buy grain, but cannot because of regulations and restrictions. Mr. Whelan said farmers want a reasonable, price for their grain and a firm commitment from the marketplace that they can realize a profit before they plant crops or buy land. To provide guaranteed prices the agricultural products board is offering to buy any feed grain farmers want to sell, at reasonable prices, judged against the cost of production.

Farmers who have a quota and can wait for their cash will get a belter deal selling through the Canadian Wheat Board, but those who want cash immediately can sell through the agricultural products board. While prices are high and the demand is strong, this board is not the best place to sell grain, but it will be of tremendous help if a situation occurs such as that of 1960 and 1970, he said. Farmers want more information so they can make better management decisions. To provide such a service the government will now announce the Initial price of grain on March 1 instead of Aug. 1, Mr.

Whelan said. This year the wheat board has calculated the likely final payment and has made the total price public. A system to record off-board prices across the Prairies has been set up and this information will be published on a regular basis every two weeks so farmers will know exactly what the going prices are. no meuy soaking 1 no harsh ecrobbing for free quotation call Daraelean S22-17S7 "Yes.
