the acton fftff press thursday axtul stji loflt top sire kurluumml by mettle cuttle ktrefljtt halton mohibors of the mnpie cottle breeders association yho have recently visited headquarters atmnpl are hiffhly delijihtea with the quality of the stud which now consists of batteries of holstclntt oreweys guernsey ayrshjres and shorthorns a battery of top herec sard sires is also being added how- evr when we visited the unit this past week only one of the four he re fords recently purchased had as yet arrived at maple this was itlnfiwood beau zento 27th the strand champion hereford of the bull show and sale recently held at the royal winter fair buildings in toronto this great bull stated by jim watt well known short horn breeder of cue ph to be the bet beef bull of any breed to go through any of the beef bull sales held in toronto in recent years was purchased by the maple cattle breeders at 3000 it was also our privilege recently to inspect an other hereford sire purchased by the uaouttnlt from p w reich- eld it sdns of jarvls this bull too is going to be a real eye please- r when he arrives at the unit while only a year old last january he has tremendous scale for his age and plenty of bone another recent purchase which itnneeytne most fastidious holstein enthusiast is houckholme duke burke the wfloo two year old son of abegwelt iron duke and out of reecho mak burke that excellent cow of jack houcks which recently won the canadian championship for yearly milk pro duction with 3s314 lbs milk and 1201 lbs fat this record is also the largest 3x milk yield ever of yorkshires and ayrshires the main ficially recorded in the americas regardless of age and she made it at 12 years of age her last calf was sold an a senior calf at last falls allcanadian sale for m00 incidentally the annual meeting of the halton branch of the manic unit was held in miltonrceently g w keffer tnnnagerof the maple association reported nearly 25000 cows bred by the maple unit in 1050 and judging by the number of breedings to date in 1051 it would appear that upwards of 35000 will be bred this year frankly we were a little surprised to learn that only 2714 halton cows were bred to bull in the maple unit last year where oh where can one dupli cate the stud at maple from the standpoint of blood lines product ion and type and at a 500 service fee few halton breeders can af ford to purchase bulls of their quality and when qne realizes that it costs 200 and up to provide feed and bedding for a bull under present day prices it would appear toyisthat a big percentage of hal ton cattle owners havent as yet realized the opportunity they are passing up in other words for getting all about the extra stall occupied by the privately owned bull forgetting all about the labor and danger involved looking after that bull ignoring the fact that the overage halton livestock breeder ront afford to purchase bulls of the quality of those at maple it still boils down to the fact that one would have to own at least forty femnlesof breeding age before the total service fees for the forty head would approach the cost of supply ing the bedding and feed for the one privately owned bull unless ones financial returns at the end of the year have reached the point where they are burdensome one cant afford to ignore ways and means of increasing farm efficiency nd lowering cost of production at the anual meeting referred to above the following halton breed ers were appoints as the local committee to represent the 2r4 halton members in the maple unit edwin harrop milton frank g stalk milton m t watson free man elmer foster campbellvllle john chapman milton- and r bruce held norval mr stark was later appointed vicepresident of the maple executive inspection needless to add the jersey stud came in for the closest jscrutihy and it was particularly gratifying to the party to find that ihree of the four jersey bulls irt the unit were bred in halton two of them by fcathertambros- oak- ville and the third by mc beaty of milton the featherstone herd bulls were out of daughters of brampton worlds records one of them be in a out of suxanna their grand champion gold medal daugh ter of old zona and both sired by their noted son of brampton basi- leus the beaty bull is by lindalo beacon has one of the most richly bred bulls of the day being a son of brampton beacon and out of up dale basil us excellent a 15 000 lb daughter of the noted brampton baslleus his dam is a 660 lb fat daughter of- undale basilua then on they went to don- head farms where art mckeown of acton is the herd superintend ent here art has 300 bead of jerseys under his supervision and needless to add they include among the toppers their grand champion female at the 1050 cne she was also
