72nd Year No. 34 THE COLBORNE EXPRESS, THURSDAY, AUGUST 25th, 1938 $2.00 a year in advance; $2.50 to U. S. A. 'New Type" Show For Holsteins The NortKumiberland Holstein Club has joined with Roseneath Agricultural Society in co-operation with the Ontario Department of Agriculture in staging at Roseneath Fair on October 14th, 1938, the first "New Type" Holstein Show in Northumberland County. The prize list provides for jilO prizes of $2.00 each. All cattle exhibited must be accredited and blood tested. There are 17 classes exclusive of championships, with from 3 to 10 prizes per class, the remaining prize money will be transferred to some other class where the exhibit is heavier. If some ol the prizes are still unclaimed additional money will be added to the prizes in herd classes.. Already a number of Holstein breeders who do not usually exhibit at local fairs for fear of contamination from untestedi stock have agreed to show at Roseneath;, and aty least 100 entries are now assured. $84.00 of the prize money is provided by the Roseneath Agricultural Society, $50.00 by the Northumberland Holstein Clulb, 20% of the prize list by the Ontario Live Stock Branch and a fee of 50c per entry will provide the remainder making a total of at least $220.00 all of which will be distributed. The committee in charge of the "New Type" Black and Wlhite Show is composed of Lome Evans, Norham, and E. L. Anderson, Campbellford, President, and Secretary of the Holstein Club. Archie Campbell, Roseneath. director of Roseneath Pair, and A. H. Martin, Brighton, Agricultural Representative. This and a similar classification for Holsteins for Ontario County at Port Perry Fair on Sept. 28th are the first Holstein shows of this type to be held in Ontario. The Northumiberliand Holstein Club j have been particularly active during ! the past two "years. Last year a; j special Holstein-_ show was held in ' connection with Campbellfo-^ 'Fair. [ which brought out 56 animals. The club program also includes an annual banquet and series of barn meetings. The Roseneath Agricultural Society conducts the largest two-day fair in Ontario, with the .final day gate receipts always well over $2,000.

Wilce Killed Attempting to Get On Moving Truck A distressing accident occurred near Castleton, Monday afternoon, August 22nd, TO8, when in attempting to get on the running board of a slowly moving truck, Gerald A. Wilce, in some manner missed his hold and fell face downward in the wtieel track. Both the front and rear wheels of the truck, which was loaded with two yards of gravel, passed over his body, killing him instantly. The owner and driver of the truck, Mr. Frank Haynes of Colborne did not see the young man try to get on, and was not aware the truck had run over him until persons nearby drew his attention to it. Travelling on a steep up-grade the truck was moving slowly which no doubt was the reason the unfortunate young man tried to get on. Mr. Wilce, who was in his 28th year, was a son of Mr. John K. Wilce of Gas tie ton, and he was highly esteemed in the community. The funeral services were held in the United Church, Catleton, Wednesday afternoon, being conducted by the Pastor, the Rev. M. L. Hinton. COMING EVENTS Fifty-sixth Anniversary Services in Colborne Baptist Church, Sunday, August 28th. See advt. Rummage Sale, Home Cooking and Candy Taible, at home of Mrs. John H.
