J did land a good catch —a 16-pound- er. They expect to return to Olds about the middle of July. Possibly one of the best kept gardens in town, and the least seen hy the public, on account of its location, is the beauty-spot sur- rounding the home of Mr: and Mrs Ashcroft. The growing garden truck, the lawn, the flower-beds all seem to have had .a’ professional touch, and the result of their. toil will be later garnered when the lady of the home can step outside and pick the table delicacies. The lightning, rain and hail storms of varying intensity... but fortunately of brief duration, which fel] over the district Saturday after- noon, left some destruction in its path. In an area south-east of Olds hail did damage to the gardens and crops, and Benny St. Clair re- ports that a lightning-flash tore up part of a field in zig-zag fashion | and a horse that was in its path was instantly killed He also reports that a similar damaging storm oc- ii curred just .a year. ago to the day and almost at the same hour.

The cream of broncho-busters were there and there were lots of wild horses that received their first lesson in being tamed. On the second night, at about 10 o'clock, when merry-making was at ite height, rain descended, which sent the crowd homeward bound at an earlier hour than anticipated. the thought of mud-roads not appealing to the drivers of cars.

Second Day Winners Open Bucking — Norman Edge, A meeting of directors and com- mittees of the Olds Society will be held in the Town Hall Saturday, June 24th, at 8 pm., to make definite arrange- ments in connection with the Fair to be held in the near future. Mrs. Duncan McLean and grand- daughter made a trip to Red’ Deer by ‘bus the first of the week for a day’s visit with Mr and Mrs. J. C Brosh. at whose home a daughter was born recently. Mr. and Mrs. Brosh are former Olds residents. The patrons of the Mayfair theatre, we understand, are soon to have a real treat, as the manage- ment of the Mayfair is installing, in the very: near future, one -of. the latest. type beaded sound-screen, rwhich will improve the light source 50%.and will enable them to have a larger picture and the manu- facturer of this screen states that it is. “‘kind to the eyes’’ In con- nection with this. screen, there. will also be a larger and finer tune- sound equipment to match the screen. This is just another step of progress which brings the May- fair theatre fully up to the standard of city theatres. The sixth crop report this season, issued by the Department of Agri- culture, reads as follows, concerning the Olds district: *“Crop conditions somewhat late, but making rapid headway, Pasturage excellent. Stock doing well.’’ The report also gives particulars of the grass- hopper situation in southern Al- berta, which has developed rather seriously in certain parts A mil- lion and a half acres in the extreme south are seriously menaced The daily out-put of poisoned bait has now reached over 400 tons, and the total quantities of the material used to date (June 17th), in what has proven the heaviest grasshopper campaign in the history of the pro- vince. has been as follows: 2.600,000 Ibs of bran, 3,600,000 Ibs. of saw- dust, 15,000 gallons of arsenite, |’ 16,000 gallons of molasses.
