Advance-Tixmea, April 30, 10
asan of Business
magazine devoted
less activities in
Carries a story
NV* eo-authored, by
ohllo, a member of
The advance -Times news
Sty. Collaborating on the
Otclry was Bev Balog.
The story's opener is a real
eye -Catcher, for a full color
picture of a roasted stickling
pig complete with apple in
mouth, is spread across two
pages. The story itself
concerns a Waterloo County
pig farmer who has parlayed
his success in the "hog
business into something
bigger than normal.
Instead of shipping his
squealers off to market,
Ross Shantz uses them as the
base commodity for the
Country Pork Restaurant on
King Street in 1Nate OC, .
T#e
eatery was fornwr r d char
food outlet known as the Roy
Rogers restaurant. When it
fell on lean days Shantz took
over and has proven that
Ontario pork is not only
delicious but popular when it
is offered in many attractive
dishes. Porky burgers, roast
pork sandwiches, pork
sausage on a bun with a
generous helping of
sauerkraut - fare to make
the mouth water.
Teresa, a graduate' of
Conestoga College, wrote the
story several months before
she joined the A -T staff. It's
no easy trick to get a free-
lancer's story accepted by,a
magazine, so Terri, as she is
known hereabouts, has good
reason to enjoy the sweet
taste of success.

Calling an

A University ' of Guelph
study being conducted • by
Gordon Hak of .the history
depart'irie.. desperately
wants to locate people 'who
went on a HarvestExeursion
from the Huron County 'area
during the 1920s.
Each fall during the 1920s
an average of 15,000 On-
tarions went west to help
being in the Prairie wheat
crop, and many came from
this area. However little is
known about this .impoitant
part of Canadian history.
"Because of the lack of
written records, the only
way to recover this part of
our history is. by talking to
the people who actually went
west on the excursions," Mr.
Hak noted. He hopes to chat
with at least 50 former ex-
cursionists from this area
during the summer.
Anyone who went on a
Harvest Excursion during
the 1920s and is willing to
share his experience is asked
to contact Mr. Bak at the
department of history,
University of Guelph, or
phone 824-4120 ext. 3887.
