Mr, Hill is a very well-known HurOn County resident, and he was born in Colborne township on Dec. 11, 1884, a son of the late William, and Melinda Hill. Mr, Hill was educated at the old SS No. 4 Colborne township school, but he says "I quit when I was 12 to help on my dad's farm. I just never had enough education.' But the lack of education didn't seem to deter Mr. Hill. As well as running a highly successful dairy and fat cattle farm in Colborne for 40 years, he also ran a sawmill in Peter- boro for five years from 1916 to 1921. Mr. Hill is very well-known in agriculture circles throughout the province. He is credited with organizing a far- mers club in Benmiller the early .1920s that eventually bewilan the Federation .of. AOieulture, • Mr. Hill was also chairman of the Huron County Commit- tee of the Ontario Plowman's Association when' the first. In- ternational Plowing Match was held in Huron County in 1946. ' Among his other connections with agriculture, Mr. Hill was a one-time chairman of the Cat- tle Committee of the Royal Winter Fair; a former chair- man of the Canadian Guernsey Breeders Association; a former chairman for 12 years of the Canadian National Livestock Records Board, which looks of-' ter pedigrees for all animals ex- cept Holsteins and dogs; and a cattle judge for many years at dozens of local fairs. Mr. Hill claims his greatest accomplishment was in moun- ting a campaign to eliminate brucellosis and Warble Flies in cattle. Today, brucellosis is nearly non-existent in Ontario. Politics was also a favorite hobby for Mr. Hill. He served locally for 12 years on the Colborne township council, and three years as reeve. He also ran three times as a Liberal candidate for the provincial house in thee 1920s,,, bueneverigOt a seat, in Toronto, although he came within a'few votes twice. 91Ed CHARTERED ACCOUNTANT Announces the opening of an office for the practice of his profession at 39 West Street Goderich, Ontario Telephones; P.O.
