THE CANADIAN STATESMAN, BOWMANVILLZ, ONTA~ ~r~AV. MARCT~T ~th 1~t Phone 689 RHAU Quinte Catie Dreeders' Association, Duy Four Excellent Shorthorn Buils The Quinte Cattie Breeders'1 Association, Belleville, bas now added a battery of excellent Shortborn bulîs for service in the counties from Frontenac west to Durham. ln Durham the servicL covers the Townships of Hope, Clarke, Darlington, Cartwright. The south haîf of Manvers may be included if the mîleage is within the range of the insemin- ator. North Manvers may be serv- iced by the Maple Breeders As- sociation through Victoria County and Cavan from the same unit t.hrough the Peterborough office. A bull buying committee con- sisting of Russell Osborne, New- castle:;.John Lean, Cobourg. and R. H. Graham of the Live Stock Branch, Toronto. purchased the four top priced bulls at the On- tario Beef Cattle Improvement Association Sale in Toronto on March 21. The four bulis and the prices paid were: 1. Kilburnie Bansom Choice- 312614-purchased from Robt. L. McKin]ay and Sons, Morpethi, Ont., foc $1.000. 2. Ransom Mnt-320729-pur- chased from Roslyn Flett. Oak- wood. for $1,300. This bull was Grand Champion individual wben close to 140 Shorthorn bulîs par- aded before the judges on March 20. 3. Scotsdale Delegate-315310- purchased from S. G. Bennett, Georgetown for $1,700. The sire of this bull, Calrossie Atlantic Wave, is a half brother to the four bulîs that brought the high-1 iest prices at the 1951 Perth Sale in Scotland. 4. Scotsdale Elite-319701--pur- chased from S. G. Bennett, brought the top price for Shorthorn bulîs $2.050. This is a big growthy,, smooth Ransom Bull. Many good judges of Short- horn cattie consider this an out- standing battery of Shorthorn buils that should be of great benefit to both the pure bred ani grade Shorthorn breeders in the Counties concerned. The four ibulis are now at the stables at Belleville, situated one concession North of No. '2 High- way and about two miles west of the city, Those wishing to visit the Breeders' Property to inspect the bulis may turn north at the cemetery just before coming to the railroad crossing west of Belleville. Those wishing to join the Dur- hamn Unit in Darlington and Cart- wright should contact the Tech- nician, LeRoy Short Bowman- ville, telephone 2479. If in the other part of Durham, contact Gordon Wright, Clarke, telephone 1620. For further information contact either of these men who do the work, or E. A. Summers, Agricultural Representative. Those wishing to become mem- bers may make settiement with the technicians when they- require the service or they may leave a cheque at the Department of Ag- ricultural Office, Bowmanville. Dr. J. M. McLean who is Man. ager of the Quinte Breeders' As- sociation hopes to bave the Short- horn Bulîs on service around the.

No. 4, DARLINGTON (Intended for last week) Our meeting of March 19 w'as held in Ebenezer Sunday School. -Pipe Lines of Information" was the subject for discussion. We considered farm extension ser- vices. There are many forms of thèse services. The majority of farmeî's make use of some uf these services to some extent but fcw make as full use of themn as is possible. We know our Agricultural Representative is much too busy and believe he needs an assistant. Farmers are not aware of all the extension services available. A greater number of demonstration plots would be of benefit. The establishment of a number of experimental farms on a smal- 1er scale than those at present in operation ,vould make theic ser- vices available to more people. Each could deal more specifically with local problems of farm management. We could make greater use of films. Films concerning conser- vation were thought to be a need. If conservation in respect to pre. vention of soil crosion wecc car- ried out on a large scale we would need the advice of experts. Demonstrations and films were thought to be of more practical help than information contained in pamphlets. The outstanding orthopaedic specialists wvho hold crippled children clinics in many parts of the province do so without re- muneration. Use Faster Seals.

There xvas around seven hundred bushels of excellent seed on ex- hibit. On March 16 about 250 farm- ers attended the afternoon lec- tures with Dr. McCrostie discuss- ing the nexver varieties of forage and cereal crops. Bacon Carcass Competition An added feature this year was the Bacon Carcass Competition with four carcasses from, four Townships of Ontario County and three from Durham. This com- petition wvas staged 'by the Fed- eral Live Stock Branch with the co-operation of Canada Packers, Toronto, who dressed and deliv- ered the carcasses to Blackstock. Mr. Findlay Stewart gave a most instructive discussion on the 28 sides. The Townships stood in the following order: Thorah, Darling- ton, Pickering, Scugog, Cart- wright, Reach and Manvers. The champion carcass was grown by Ralph Larmer, Nestleton R. R. 2. Ralph came up through Junior Farmer Qéob Work and was a member of the Durham Swine Club for two or three years. The dam of this pig bas now raised 91 pigs from nine litters, is a purebred and the sire is from an Advanced Registry sow that scor- ed 93 points out of a hundrcd about three ycars ago. This xvas the highest score for Ontario that year. The reserve Champion car- cass was grown by P. Butcher, Beaverton.

And wings again have diagramm- ed the skies. While flake by flake the winter bas withdrawn, Gatbering ber accoutrements of snow, Yet no one heard ber leave. Now she bas gone, Leaving no trace.
