HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Wingham Advance-Times, 1966-04-28, Page 10When you put cattle on feed, you start pouring tons
of feed into them. We can help you save money,
by making your rations high in feeding efficiency.
We do far more than grind your grain and mix in a
few bags of protein. Every formula we use has been
checked and approved for low-cost feeding results
at the Purina Research Farm.
In addition to regular rations fed with roughage, we
are equipped to grind and mix the new Purina "Built-
in Roughage"TM rations that are sweeping the
country. Roughage is ground
right into the ration to cut your
feeding costs. These rations must
be mixed exactly right for top
results. You can depend on our
Purina-approved Check-R-Mix
service to do just that. Call on
us to mix your cattle rations. We
can mix them right.

Well-advanced plans of the
Huron County Publicity Com-
mittee of the 1960 International
Plowing Match and farm ma-
chinery demonstration indicate
that the event should draw at
least 100,000 to the Seaforth
site, Tuesday, Oct. 11 to Fri-
day, Oct. 13.
Located to a large extent on
the Jim Scott farm, the re-
nowned match will feature a
huge tent city of four streets
and eight rows of exhibitors, a
landing strip for plane rides ov-
er the area, more than 140
acres of parking space and some
of the best plowing land to be
found in this part of the pro-
vince.
Due to the enormous area of
the site, more than a square
mile, wagon rides will be ar-
ranged for visitors. Working on
a budget of $45, 000, the com-
mittee decided to charge $1.00
per person with children 14 and
under admitted free. There
will be no charge for parking
cars.
Don McKenzie, chairman of
the parking committee, ad-
vises that three entrances where
tickets will be sold can handle
2,000 cars per hour.
The publicity committee,
formed a little over a year ago
under the chairmanship of W.B.
Stephenson, predicts the match
will be "a great thing for Hur-
on County and the town of Sea-
forth."
Plans call for a caravan to
leave Guelph three days before
the match, touring the cities in
a bid for publicity.
Floyd Lashley, secretary-
manager of the Ontario Plow-
man's Association, Toronto,
reminded a meeting of the
committee and the weekly press
last Friday during a dinner at

Morris FOA Meeting
At Grasby Home
BELGRAVE—The directors of
the Morris Township Federation
of Agriculture met at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Grasby
on Thursday evening with 13
members present. Joe Black,
vice-president, was in charge.
Minutes and treasurer's re-
ports were read by Mrs. Ted
Fear. Joe Black will take over
as president to conduct the
township meeting and Ted Fear
will be the representative to the
county meetings.
Mel Mathers and Carmen
Craig reported on the plans for
a bus trip to Michigan on June
7. Mrs. Fear reported on the
county meeting and a discus-
sion was held on the Mid-West-
ern Ontario Development As-
sociation.
Lunch was served by the hos-
tess. The next meeting will be
held at the home of Mr. and
Mrs. Joe Black.
"New Understanding of Res-
ponsibility" will be the topic of
study at the annual Regional
Folk School to be held June 23-
26 at the Lime Kiln Lodge, In-
verhuron. This will be the fifth
folk-school held for the South
Western Ontario Region.
Two planning meetings have
been held to date with county
representatives from various
groups and organizations. The
delegates want to emphasize a
study of interpersonal and inter-
group relationships in commun-
ity life, modern society values
in terms of the place of work
and leisure aspect and the de-
velopment of the conformist at-
titudes that are central in pre-
sent-day culture.
This topic is felt to be very
important because of several
examples in communities and
everyday life of rapid change,
which appears threatening to
traditional values, making it
more impersonal as well as
more difficult to create com-
munities that are good to live
in.
The Folk School is being
planned with the assistance of
Rural Learning Association
which is a new provincial adult
education program designed to
serve organizations in provid-
ing training and understanding
for the members.
Resource people will be fin-
anced by Rural Learning Associ-
The committee found billet-
ing will be readily available
and prices for accommodation
will be reasonable.
Other special events in-
clude the mayors' and reeves'
classes. It was suggested that
horses should be used for this
plowing event.
There will be a "Queen of
the Furrow" contest, an agri-
cultural representatives' con-
test, horseshoe pitching, bands,
an old time orchestra, hobby
show, steam tractors, model
steam engines and a tractor
pulling contest.
Other demonstrations will in-
clude corn crops, forage crops,
corn machinery demonstrations,
and a hillside trickle demon-
stration by the Maitland Valley
Conservation Authority which
will trap water in usable quan-
tities for water stock.
Elston Cardiff reported for
the historical committee that
five counties are joining in
competition to make that sec-
tion a success. His committee
has selected many historical
articles of interest from the
museums in Goderich and Exe-
ter.
Russell Bolton said bands
will include the Seaforth Dis-
ation and Community Programs
Branch. Resource leaders will
be David Smith, group trainer
and conference consultant of
Barrie; Victor Morrow, advisor
for special projects for Rural
Learning Association, of Tor-
onto; William Tilden, Harris-
ton, director of Zone 2 for
Rural Learning Association.
Chairman for this committee is
Mrs. Eunice McGillivary, Kin-
cardine. Registrations to be
mailed to Mrs. Ronald Slade

$2,00 fee which will be a part
of the total fee of $17.00.
