cattle to the central can ada- exhibition ottawa the week of august 22 and what a job they did back of space will not permit us to list all of their awards but the following should be sufficient to

featherstone bros ken ella and sons und gerald r gra ham the lindule herd of maurice beaty took no less than five re 1 ribbons junior female champion ship on their winning senior yearl ing and reserve grand female championship on their winning dry cow in addition we understand tho lindale herd was runnerup for both the pr exhibitor n pre mier breeder awards featherstone bros white out with a shorter string had at least four of their entries in the top bracket messrs ella and graham who had- not planned to exhibit sent one or two head each in order to help out in the county herd class their entries too were in the top bracket and helped round out a nice entry in the latter class where halton placed second to the york entry with peel in third place durno innes of woodstock was the able judge of this splendid show h shorn- here hulluu was represented by some 36 head ashville farms ipel- letterio bros were out with a nice string of ten head which joe george and dave had up around

means to have ones entry up in the first half dozen or so partic ularly so with over 40 entries in some of the classes in any event when the county herd class rolled around the halton boys were really in there pitching a county herd entry calls for six animals one senior bull one junior bull two senior females and two junior females ten counties mad poets corner the papers overlooked lllal the
