In addition, 85 entrants com- peted in youth activity classes giving the Exeter show the larg- est number of entries for any event of its kind in the province of Ontario to date. While quarter horse shows do not provide a , lot of spectator excitement more than 500 per- sons attended the all-day event. Dr. Don Ecker, president of the Exeter Saddle Club, spon- sors of the Quarter Horse Show said he was very pleased with the outcome. "The co-operation we received from the contestants and from all our ring officials was terrific and it didn't rain for a change," added Ecker. The last couple of years, the show had been plagued by wet weather, especially in 1987 when contestants wallowed around in ankle deep mud for mist of the day, Paul Oswald of Waterloo was one of the major winners in various events and was named all-performance winner of the show. Brian Hill of Sarnia riding his Red Marnbo Jr. won the highest number of points for a Canadian registered horse and James Bab- cock of Dresden won the all- round youth activity award. A veteran itt the show horse busiheSs, Keith Moen of Roch- ester, Minnesota who handled the judging duties for the day said the grounds and facilities were close to being the best he had ever encountered, efioft Refulte Growing conditions in the County ate quite favourable with all crops doing well, Corn has crown well within the past few days, taking advantage Of the Moisture of the past week. All spring grains are thooting out very well, Sane grain has shown yellowing, possibly due to the difficulty of up take of nutrients from the soil. This would be because of the type of weather we have had previously; Another reason for this yellow- ing) could be a disease called liGray 'Speck" caused by a M an- gs.nese deficiency due to the rela- tive scarcity or 'unavailability. Nearly all white beans have been planted and the crop It pro- ,gressing well. Haying has been started in the county and anything cut at this present stage will beef very good quality.
