Mr. Innes, as guest peaker, said that well over 60 per cent of dairy cattle in Canada, and 50 per cent in -the United States are Holstein. From his experience as a director of the national organization since 1947, during which time he has been in contact with breeders all over the world, the Canadian presi- dent said that Canada has as good a breeding program as any other country. "In Ontario we are fortunate in having 45 clubs with, a member- ship of 9,637," he said. He re- ferred to Huron County's mem- bership of 200 and compared it to that of New Brunswick with 255, British Columbia with 321 and Quebec with 1,543. "One of our greatest tasks in the dairy industry is that of advertis- ing. The Holstein, breeders plan on pushing a selling program costing $3,000 to ,the dairy farmers , of Canada to advertise dairy products. Our association has been setting aside large sums for field work, extension and fall fairs, 'In 1945' we used $55,000 for extension work,. while this year the amount was $110,000. Stresses Size He emphasized the 'importance OPTICAL DEVELOPMENTS By J. E. LONGSTAFF, Optometrist NEW DEVELOPMENTS IN OPTICS A recent development in the optical field is a method whereby regular white prescription lenses may be transformed into sunglass- es by a special type of colored coating fused to one surface of the lens. This can be obtained in various colors and varying shades, from a light tint to dark sunglasses. The advantages of this method of tinting are: (1) When stronger bifocal lens- es are needed, quite frequently only the near prescription is changed, "the distance prescription remaining the same. If such is the case, the old lenses rather than being discarded, can be made into sunglasses containing your particular prescription, (2) Many people would like to change to a new style of frames, even though they do not require changing lenses, but hesitate dis- carding perfectly good lenses. With the above process, more and more people are simply hav- ing their present glasses converted into prescription sunglasses and ZION Mr. Gerald Ahrens visited over the weekend with his aunt and uncle, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Roney.

(3) In strong corrections, par- ticularly cataract cases, where glare can cause extreme discom- fort, the thickness of the glass var- ies considerably from edge to cen- tre; this'means that the color al- so varies from very dark at the centre to very light at the edge or vice versa, depending on the prescription. Now, for the first time, a uni- form color can be obtained with- out going to great expense and without making these already heavy lenses even heavier.

Warning of the dangers of cat- tle -carrying red factor, Mr. Innes said that if breeders are to retain their export market to the U.S., they must look ahead, and not let the red factor interfere. He sug- gested that if the red factor is present in an animal up for sale, that it be advertised as such. He said that much is to be done to correct the lack of a market for mills. "No breed can compare to the Holstein when it comes to the production of solids, not fat—and today the consumer is paying more attention to solids," said Mr. Innes. He said that nothing can produce food as economically as the cow, quoting -the adage: "The cow, the sow, and the speckled hen, have brought us through the depression again."
