Local Tractor Pull
a roaring success
Close to 4,000 spectators lined the hills
overlooking the track this weekend for the
Can -Am Tractor Pull held annually in
Lucknow. With almost 100 tractors from
across Canada and the United States vying
for $20,000 in prize money, the two day
event was one of thrills and excitement.
Attendance for the sanctioned pull was
down slightly over previous years, say
organizors, due in part to the extreme heat
but those who braved the sun came away
more than satisfied with the action.
A number of local drivers took top spots
in the competition billed as "the most com-
plete show in Western Ontario". Art Helm
of Lucknow took second spot on `Ghost
Buster' in the 5,200 Modified class and
another second in the 7,200 Modified while
the team of Tony Mittenberg and Peter
Grazier on Spookie Ladie' took second in
the 5,800 2WD class and tied for first and
second with Rick Cunningham of Goderich
in the 6,200 class.
Congratulations to the winners and a tip
of the hat to organizors for another fine
weekend of pulling. Following are the final

SHURGAIN ISO ACID°
DAIRY SUPPLEMENT (0% ECP)
with 8.5% Eastman® Iso PIusTM Nutritional Supplement
The volatile fatty acids in Shur -Gain's Iso Acid Dairy Supple-
ment are used by rumen microbes to synthesize amino acids,
resulting in an increased microbial population.
These additional microbes improve digestion of feed and pro-
vide more energy and protein to the cow. The result of this
dual action is increased milk production from good cows which
might otherwise have been deficient in volatile fatty acids.
Better digestibility means more milk
In summary, Shur -Gain Iso Acid Dairy Supplement helps cows
get more nutritional value from the feed they eat. This extra
nutrition enables good cows to produce more milk.
