OPA PRESIDENT
JOINS SELECT CIRCLE
When Albert Carson became
president of the Ontario Plowmen's
Association recently, he joined a select
circle. The Listowel resident is only
the third from Perth County to head
the OPA. George Waldie (1936) and
John Stephens (1976) preceded him.
A retired dairy and mixed farmer,
Carson was named a director of the
Perth County Plowmen's Association
in 1967 and in 1980 was elected Perth
director to the OPA executive.
He also served as a director of the
Listowel Agricultural Society and was
president in 1964 and 1965. In 1966
he became District 8 director to the
Ontario Agricultural Society, and in
1972 he was OAS president.
Politically, Carson was first
elected to the Wallace Township
Council in 1955. He was later reeve
of Wallace and warden of Perth
