Ode hundred and 12
Holstein cattle were tran-
sported by chartered jet from
Toronto International Airport
at the end of 1976, to Haiti as a
special Christmas gift. from
Canada and the Rotary clubs
of Central Ontario.
Ontario Minister of
Agriculture and Food
William • G.. Newman, Ken-
neth Davis, central .Ontario
chairman of the Rotary Club
World Service Committee,
and Norman Guild, central
Ontario Rotary Club
governor, were at the airport
to see this first shipment of
'Holstein cattle leave for
Haiti.
The project, which cost
as •
$50,000 was financed by the 57
Rotary clubs of Central
Ontario and assisted by the
Canadian International
Development ' Agency
(CIQA). •
The Holsteins were pur-
chased through funds raised
by the Rotary clubs and
donations from students at
the Kemptville College of
Agricultural Technology:
Some of the cattle were
donated by Ontario farmers.
The cattle will be,,used to
stimulate the dairy industry
in- Haiti. Haiti currently
imports about 30 million litres
of milk each year.
The Haitian dairy industry

now produces only five
percent of the domestic need.
The100 Holstein heifers, j2
bulls and some frozen semen
from Ontario will ,,,be
delivered to seven areas of -
Haiti to be used for both
production and educational
purposes.
Rotary spokesman Kenneth
Davis said the club worked on
the project for about 10
months. He said the decision
to begin the program was
made in consultation with
Canadian and Haitian
government officials and with
two Rotary clubs in Haiti.
"This is the largetajliP- '

tertaining evening."

McKeough, federal
agriculture minister Eugene
Whelan, Everett 'Bigg,
George McCaque, CFPL's
farm editor from London,
Roy Jewell, and Earl

in Hamilton early in
November that he was not
seeking re-election as

. • \
seven years as head of the
federation, and before that

organizations promoting
better conditions for farmers.
The OFA says the ticketh
