BELGRAVE-Forty-six people
went on the bus trip to Gratiot
County, Mich. , last week,
sponsored by the Morris Federa-
tion of Agriculture. The driver
was Peter McNaughton of Ilder-
ton and Mel Mathers was con-
vener of the trip.
The bus left Wingham at
5:45, picking up passengers at
Belgrave and Blyth, and stop-
ping fox breakfast at Sarnia,
The tour began at the B&W
Co-op Incorporated Beans and
Grain at Breckenridge with Mrs.
John Baker as guide, where they
saw the grading and cleaning of
beans. It was interesting to learn
that Canadian beans are super-
ior to American beans, their
choice grade being equal to
Canada's No. 1.
Lunch was enjoyed at Alma
College, the Presbyterian col-
lege for the state.
. The- first feed lot was that of
Clare-and Jack McLean, a fath-
er and son operation that finish-
et 740 head each year. Char-
lais crossed with Angus and
Charlais crossed with Hereford
are the breeds of cattle seen at
all these farms, They crop 360
acres.
Wilber VanPage and Son
Farms have 340 acres all in De-
kalb corn (3 and 4-way cross).
They finish 640 head of cattle
a year. Silage is the main
feed for these cattle with urea
and linestone added to the silos.
The third farm was that of
Basil McKenzie a certified seed
grower who grows and sells cer-
tified and foundation barley
and soy beans, three different
kinds of white beans and 8 vari-
eties of corn from 80 day to 112
day. He has his own grading
machine and treats all the seed.
Terra Bona Farm had 480
acres planted in corn, navy
beans and wheat. The value of
this land is $600.00 per acre,
There are 500 head of cattle
and each calf brought in on
this farm is given Vitamin A.
Feed is silage from the silos
with silestrol and 32% concen-
trate.
One of the largest dairy
farms in the area belongs to Bob
Bott. Holstein-Friesian cattle
are all registered with two-
thirds Canadian bred. Seventy-
three head are milking cows

tor was in regular use until 1948. The Ontar-

ago.--Advance-Times photo.

and 50 bred heifers, 210 head
all together, None of these
cows are on pasture. Thisman
grew 50 acres of pure alfalfa,
20 acres in other crops. The
price paid for the milk was
$5,40 per hundred.
The last farm visited was
that of the guide John Baker
who has 267 acres in corn and
120 acres in beans and other
crops; 500 charlais and Angus
cattle.
A few items of interest noted
were that land stays in the fam-
ily and is very hard to buy,
Concentrate is bought in bulk
at $80.00 per ton, corn at
$1.05 bu, Price paid for the
cattle last fall varied from $24
to $27; highest price this spring
when selling $27.10; white
beans $7.00 per hundred; kid-
ney beans $10,00 per hundred.
