Several Tours Enjoyed By 4-H Clubs
Visit Farms and Industries By Bus
(By A. S. Bolton)
During the month of July 4-H
:clubs ,of Huron County toured
seoeral of the counties of Western
Ontario visiting various, farms and
industries. Thiss year's program
was a distinct change from other
years in that there were several
tours taken from different areas
!of the county to different parts
of Western Ontario. Years pre-
vious to this lone it had been the
practice to take one tour for he
whole county to some distant
point or points of interest. This
tour became too large and involv-
ed to manage satisfactorily and
!the cost tbecarne: prohibitive. For
these reasons it was decided to
make a change.
Two tours were taken to the
farm: of Alex M. Stewart and Son
,at Ailsa Craig. The first was • a
tour by seven members of the
Exeter Grain Club on July 3 and
the setcond by 14 members of the
South Huron White Bean Club on
July 16. The club members were
condutoted around the farm by
Jahn A. Stewart who outlined the
various ,crops Wing grown and
.explained the capabilities of each
different variety over older Var-
ieties.
On July 17 20 members of the
and North Huron Swine club vis-
ited the Ontario Agricultural Col-
lege at Guelph and the Co-op Feed
Pliant • as well as the Waterio
Artificial Insemination Unit. This
tour was ,conducted by the club
leaders! and proved highly success-
ful.
The ruewily • fiarmed Seaforth
Poultry Club also visited at the
• with the Poultry Depart-
ment ent on June 27, Tthey also Visit-
ed several poultry farms in the
Guelllph area. James Scott and R.
V. Whitely, the club leaders were
in .charge of this tour.
On July 16 South. Huron olutbs
visited South Western Ontario.
Approximately 70 members nook
part in this tour and visited the
Western Ontario Agricultural
School; a Ridgetdwii c as well as
tate Dominion Grass Plant at Wal-
laoeburg. This tour was taken by
thus and A,, I . Mitres and A. S.
Bolton along with the club lead-
ers were in charge.
Two tours were taken from
Central Huron Area, both; to
Bruce County. One, July 15 and
the other on July 22. Both visited
the, new` open -front hog barn near
Teeswater which is being put up
by Mr. Barllagh and they also vis-
ited the Te:eswater Pig Faint.
where Mr. Syd Smith is orotssintg.
Lan;drace and Yorkshire along with
Wessex Saddlebacks and produc-
ing a hybrid strain of pigs. They
visited Elnniie Ackert's farnn: at
Holyroox and the Bervie Zoo.
These tours, were conducted by
Bill McBride, assistant agricultur-
al represer tative for Bruce Coun-
ty, Art Bolton and the Club lead-
ers of the various clubs were in
,charge.
Final 4-13 bus tour for this
year was, taken on Tuesday, July
29 to Perth County, where Mr.
White the agricultural represent-
ative made arrangements for a
visit to the Stratford Beacon }far -
old idturinig their morning press
Arun and to visit the Shakespear-
ian
hakespeaa-ian Festivals Building. The group
visited the dairy farm of Adam
Bell, Stratford who leas a loose -
housing set up for his dairy cat-
tle 'and has found it quite success-
ful. The group ate lunch at the
quarry at St. Marys and after-
wards visited Richardson Stain-
less Steel Tank Factory there,
where many of the stainless steel
'bulk tanks used in this arllea tor
hauling !the, milk from the farms
to the milk plant are Made.
