Departmental Reports

Farm Report
IP, JE. PORE

In reporting on the Farm for the year, it is gratifying to note the increased interest and
pride displayed by the boys in their work and they have also proved more dependable.

Our Dairy Herd came through the winter in good shape and is steadily improving in
quality. We have sixty York Hogs which are well housed and are the pride of the farmers.
Ten acres of potatoes and eight acres of corn have been planted and twenty-seven acres of
mixed grain and oats have been sown. We have fifteen acres of Red Clover hay ready to cut
and the farm crops give promise of a good yield in spite of the late and wet spring. The
balance is in pasture.

Charlie Williams and Wilfred Bennett have done well as teamsters while Sandy Angus
and Harvey Sepass have capably and efficiently handleded live-stock.

Sun” of January 16th, 1932.

test. The herd sire is registered No. 7953. Considerably over one hundred
thousand pounds of whole milk from the herd was utilized for food purposes
in the school last year.”

Another live-stock item is that some of the Coqualeetza boys are members of the Calf
and Pig Clubs of the Chilliwack Exhibition and were encouraged by receiving several prizes—
these being of monetary value added substantially to the boys’ spending money during the
term.

Garden

E. PEAKE, Supervisor

All the boys are given seasoned and systematic instruction in gardening and regular and
effective practise in doing the actual work. If this training and instruction is given intelligently,
and we believe it is, very few kinds of work can more reasonably be expected to be of perm-
anent value. It is possible for every family to have a garden. It is also understood that the
matter of producing an abundant and varied supply of garden products for school use is an
