HUGH MacKAY’S GROUNDS
AT EAST EDGE OF VILLAGE
In a recen* article written by
Mrs. Walter MaacKenzie about
the, Caledonian - Games;- reference
was- made to them having first
been held at Hugh MacKay’s
grounds. There was some uncer
tainty as to where this was, but
Misses Jessie and Annie MacKay
have put us. straight. -
"■ Htigh MacKay, their father,
was a pioneer blacksmith’ in
Lucknow and his shop was where
the United Church, now stands.
He owned a pasture, commons of
about & acres at the eastern en
trance to the town, where the
Sproul, Wagner, Robinson., homes
are now situated.. It was there
that The Games . were held for
the first two years in 1875. and
1876, and then were moved to
the park north of Al^x Hamil

that site was too far distant from

ENDORSE FUND TO
ADVERTISEBEEF
Bruce County Beef Producers
annual meeting held in^Paisley
on Friday, April 2nd, uhanimQus-
ly ^endorsed a plan to build a
fund for the purpose of adver
tising and promoting the sales of
beef. Deductions ..will be made
on all cattleN marketed with the
exception of calves. Processors
will also make a substantial,
grant to the project.
. -Mr, B.'B^ Warnika, past presi-
dent of the Ontario Beef CattleT
Association, outlined conditions in
the~-U7Sr"as~he saw them in a
recent trip. In the corn belt^he
stated, 30 percent fewer cattle
were on feed at the .beginning
of the year. This was partly due
to discouraging profits during the
past few: years and the govern
ment support price for corn.
Many farmers felt it better to
sell the corn rather than risk .
livestock feeding. The drought
areas in Western U.S. were poL
improving and breeding stock on
many . ranches is hot being re~
placed. With a growing popula
tion in the U.S. and Canada he
felt cattle business looked bright
er.
Mr. Earl Manning of the In
dustrial Meat Packers, pointed
out the demands of the consumer
today is for non-fat meat pro
ducts. Unfortunately fat on'* an
apimal is necessary because it
provides the flavor. Better mer
chandising of, meats in the retail
trade has greatly increased sales
and higher pork prices influence
ed the consumer to buy beef. Less*
than 20 percent of a steer is com
posed of steaks and roasts but
the food value of the meat is
relatively the same ho matter
which portion of the animal it
is^cutnoffr^onsumptmn“~ol”beef”
in Canada has increased recently
from 52 lbs. per person per year
to 70 lbs. j •
Mr; George Gear, Ag. Rep. ex
pressed his solution to lower
costs of production of beef was
in better -pastures and hay. With
better hay farmers can avoid the
use of expensive grain feeding
in winter; with no hay, however,
grain will be required. He re
commended branding of cattle bet-
fore they go on grass and the
brand should be registered with
the- Livestock Commissioner, Mr.
Watson. To brand without reg
istering, is illegal. • - .
