FARMER OF THE WEEK
Hay farmer is poultry
fancier for 5 0 years
A trip during the summer
of 1980 to judge at a Cape
Breton poultry show is the
highlight of a long career of
this area's top poultry fan-
cier.
Clifford Pepper, RR 1,
Dashwood has been in-
terested in chickens since he
received 25 chicks from the
provincial government as a
school project some 54 years
ago.
After a lapse of a few
years during his teen-age
life. Pepper started raising
and showing poultry in about
1935 and has been at it ever
since.
He is now known as one of
the top judges in the
province, receiving his judg-
ing certificate from the On-
tario Poultry Association in
1972 and from similar group
in the United States four
years ago.
Pepper has been a regular
judge at the Canadian
National Exhibition and the
Royal Winter Fair since 1972
and has also been to fairs as
far away as Perth and
Odessa in addition to his re-
cent jaunt to the Maritimes.
He assisted with a recent
poultry judge's seminar at
the University of Guelph at
which time five new judges
were approved.
Asked about the judging
end of the poultry business,
Pepper commented. "I love
to judge. Our poultry bible is
Standard Perfections for
domesticated fowl and
water fowl. 1 have most,of
these regulations in my
head".
While judging takes up a
lot of his time. Pepper still
manages to exhibit at a
number of fairs and shows in
Western Ontario.
For Cliff Pepper the show-
ing season usually starts on
the first Saturday in June
with the Clinton spring fair.
Pepper helped organize
the poultry divisions for the
Clinton fair. Then comes a
show in Guelph on the first
Saturday in July followed by
the Zurich fair and the busy
time is underway.
A show for the 40
members of the Huron
Poultry. Pigeon and Pet
Stock Association is set
again this year for the se-
cond Sunday in July on the
Pepper farm at Lot 11,
Concession 16 of Hay
township.
The Hay township
enthusiast hatches his own
chicks. He added. "I haven't
bought a baby chick for
more than 20 years."
He has cut his own flocks a
bit. This year he will
probably be hatching only
about 180 birds compared to
some 300 when he was at his
peak.
He has the only purebred
Red Dorkings in Canada,
bringing in a few eggs from
the United States. Most
chicks are hatched in
February and March..
Pepper says they develop
better and get stronger when
hatched during those two
months.
Preparation for a show
starts about four days ahead
with washing of the birds,
especially the white ones.
Pepper prefers one day
shows saying. "I don't like
any show where I have to
leave my birds for a day or
two. It's not good for them".
Asked about the most pop-
ular breeds. Pepper said, "I
guess I would say the Black
Australorps and the good old
Rock breeds and the first
show bird. the white
Leghorn is still around."
Pepper receives valuable
assistance from his wife
Laura not only in helping
with raising the birds but in
clerking at shows.
Cliff Pepper is the poultry
director for the Exeter
Agricultural Society and was
president of the Ontario
Poultry Association for
three years.
SHOW BIRDS — Cliff and Laura Pepper are shown with a Buff Orpington and Coloured
Dorking rooster. They are two of the many prize poultry shown at area fairs by the
Pepper's. T -A photo
