The delegation was joined by Jack Riddell, MPP for Huron and Murray Gaunt, MPP Huron-Bruce. During the noon luncheon on Tuesday former minister of agri- culture, Bill Stewart, was pre- sented with a lifetime pass to all future international matches in recognition of his long years of service to the farming com- munity of the province. Guest speaker at the luncheon was Rev. H. S. Rodney of St. Thomas who was generally ac- claimed as an outstanding orator after the gathering heard his address on "Uncommon People". Mr. Rodney enumerated the The Huron County Wheat producers elected their executive and committeemen for the coming year with about one percent of the members on hand for the voting last Thursday. A motion to postpone elections until another meeting when more members could be present was voted down by the gathering, Provincial director Bob Henry of Blyth blamed lack • of ad- vertising and the poor travelling Wheat producers choose new slate conditions for the poor turnout, but said that meetings generally are attended by only 35-40 members, or five percent of the wheat producers in the County. Of the 600 wheat producers in the county, only 11 attended the annual meeting in the Clinton Town Hall to return John Beane of Clinton as president and Bev Hill of Varna as secretary- treasurer. Hill and Beane were also elected as committeemen along with Don Dodds and Russell Bolton of Seaforth and provincial director Bob Henry of Blyth. The committee will meet to appoint a sixth member to represent the southern porton of the county. At present, no committeeman represents the Exeter-area ,which supports the heaviest wheat production in Huron. Three of the committeemen will represent the county with the remaining three to act as alternates to the Ontario Wheat Producers Convention in Toronto, March 14 and 15. The Huron delegates are part of District 7 which includes the counties of Perth, Waterloo, Wellington, Grey and Bruce. qualities which make uncommon people as dependability, kind- ness, tolerance and faith - each of which can be improved by indi- vidual attention and effort. dent, Hon.

In conjunction with the up- coming Ontario Pork Producers convention, the Huron group also drafted a resolution regarding a change in the present hog grading system. The resolution asks the Board to negotiate a grading system to graduate from 180 pounds and down, if it meets with the ap- proval of the packers. At present, the grading system gradates from 170 pounds and down. Any hog weighing in over 170 pounds is ineligible for the grade index set at 100 to 112. The resolution will be presented at the March convention for approval. On Tuesday, February 15, a delegation of about 130 Middlesex County residents led by the Middlesex County Plowmen's Association travelled on three buses to the Royal York Hotel in Toronto to attend the Ontario Plowmen's Association annual convention. While at the convention, the local organization restated its desire to host the 1982 Inter- national Plowing Match and Farm Machinery Show in Mid- dlesex and this request was granted. The bid to hold the match in Middlesex County for the first time since 1923 was supported by representatives from County Council, numerous County farm organizations, London City council, London Chamber of Commerce, Women's Institute and the provincial legislature. The local association's major tasks in the next two years will'be ko .locate.Aeveralalternotive sites to be considered by the Wart() organization, which will select the final place for the match ,and' to enlarge and expand its annual fall competition. The Middlesex Plowmen's Association wishes to publicly thank all those Middlesex sup- porters who took time away from their busy schedules to assist us in our project. moDyfanate tilt° AT CONFERENCE Barry Miller, RR 3,Exeter and Albert Van Dyken, RR 1, Exeter represented Huron 4-H leaders at the Annual Provincial 4-H Leaders' Conference being held at the Sheraton Centre, Toronto on February 11 and 12. Jim Armstrong of RR 4, Wing- ham, was elected to the second vice presidency of the Ontario Plowmen's Association at the OPA annual meeting in Toronto last week. Since Jim is also the host farmer and a member of the Huron County local committee which is responsible for the 1978 International Plowing Match, as well as an active farmer, he is likely to be a busy fellow for the next three years, Add to all that the fact that his wife, Carol, heads the ladies' activities com- mittee of the plowing match and it makes for a busy household. The OPA annual was held at the Royal York Hotel in Toronto on Monday and Tuesday of last week, and, as usual, presented a colorful spectacle which could be compared with a full-scale politi- cal convention. Each of the county groups either seeking or already slated for an Internation- al Plowing Match brought in its own delegation, most of them headed by pipers or full bands. Each was allowed time to present highlights from their county's at- tractions for an upcoming match. The Huron delegation, 80 strong, was headed by the Sea- forth High School Girls' Band as the group entered the huge convention room on Tuesday morning. The same band was also selected to lead in the head • Dyfonate has continued to prove its effectiveness year after year for the control of rootworms. • Dyfonate is easy to use.
