At the Huron County
olstein Club annual meeting
ast Tuesday, Ross Marshall,
irkton, a director of the
lational Holstein Association
ecommended that the breeders
ccept a change in the colour
equirements of Holstein cattle,
electing their stock more on
heir economic value. He stated
hat an alternate herd book ,is
eing considered in which "off
olour" black and white, and,
ed and white purebred
olsteins could be registered. He
aid he hoped these
ecommendations, would be
ccepted when tfie.y.tg'
he national annilat g.
Dave Inglis from the
)epartment of Agriculture,
)linton, congratulated the club
n their excellent county show,
nd on the showing made at
Vestern Fair. He said the
lepartment is organizing a
vorkshop , and one-day course
or those enrolled in D.H.I.A.
'his will deal with basic dairy
nanagement and D.H.I.A.
rincipals, with emphasis on
eeds and feed formulation.
Dairy Field Man for the
)ntario Milk Commission, Ian
Kennedy from Clinton,
xplained the changes in milk
hipping standards and testing.
ie predicted that in the future
here will be more emphasis on
uality, especially in the fluid
narket, where only grade one
nilk will be accepted. With
mitation products coming on
'he market, he stressed the need
'or a good tasting, high quality
)roduct to compete.
Guest speaker for the
ifternoon was Jim McDonald,
lirector of the Centralia School
)f Agriculture. He said
efficiency in feeding is vital if
the farmer is to get all the
potential production that has
been bred into his animals. With
the amount of capital a
dairyman has tied up in land, he
must reach for the maximum
production not only of milk per
cow, but also of milk per acre
Corn silage is considered by Mr,
McDonald to be a natural feed
for dairy production, as it will
produce a maximum amount of
energy per acre, with a minimum
investment of time and labour.
He considered that as quality
teed becomes scarce, it will tend .wir o becomeA•aedu'xuryetoe allow
Veiws to graze; and a 12-month
stored-feeding system will take
over, having 'the advantage of a
uniform quality in feed year
round.
Gordon Bell from St. Marys,
Holstein field man, presented
high production certificates for
R.O.P. herd averages for
1967-68. Winner for herds with
over 20 records reported was
William Storey, RR 2, Seaforth,
with 47 records. Herds 'with
under 20 records reported was

Seaforth, with 13 records. The
aged cow class certificate went

Creek Aggie, won the 3 year old

Betsy, owned by G. Mac Smith,

Wheels spinning?
Here's a tip from the Ontario
Safety League that may help the
next time you get stuck in snow
or mud. If one rear wheel is
spinning, try applying slight
pressure from the parking brake.
This pressure applies power to
the driving wheel, removes it
from the wheel that is spinning,
and may allow you to drive out.
But a shovel in the trunk is good
insurance!
