IN
Tlin
CITY
OF
SUDBURY
and
in
the
surrounding
mining
district
in
the
Sudbury
area,
about
60,000
people
are
living
today.
This
is
a
mining
region
where
little
farming
is
carried
on.
In
the
course
of
a
year
these
people
purchase
food
to
the
value
of
about
9
million
dollars,
most
of
which
comes
from
farms
in
other
parts
of
Canada.
The
farmer,
on
the
other
hand,
must
have
machinery
that
is
tough,
strong
and
durable.

As
Mr.
Thorne
stepped
from

he
was
greeted
by
officials

the
company
and
a
host
of
friends
and
relatives
to
congratulate
him
on
his
long
and
faithful
service
and
to
wish
him
good
health,
luck
and
long
years
of
leisure.
Later
a
very
enjoyable
evening
was
spent
at
the
home
of
Mr.
Thome's
two
daughters,
Mrs,
Dan
Cory
and
Mrs.
Don
Thompson,
