“Gee,” “Haw,” “Whutt,” are being heard with increasing prevalence in Nova Scotia as more and more farmers and lumbermen turn to the faithful ox to take over the problems of tiansport with the private motor vehicle going into the discard as a result of the war. Oxen were much used in the early days on the south shore of Nova Scotia as a beast of burden, and survived here and there throughout the years. Teams of oxen being driven along the highways were objects of great interest to tourists visiting the picturesque south shore section of the province and now they are again back in harness taking over jobs heretofore done by trucks.
