Competitors seek Queen's Guineas title
Last minute touches are now
the order of the day as 4-H calf
club members ready themselves
and their steers for the annual
Queen's Guineas competition.
The event will again take place
November 8, Youth Day, at the
Royal Agricultural Winter Fair,
Toronto.
To qualify as an exhibitor
participants must be a 1979
member of an Ontario 4-H calf
dub; have exhibited in a local
achievement day, this area's
being held at Brussels; have
completed all phases of the
project to club leaders'
satisfaction; be at least 14 years
old by January 1, 1979, and not
have previously won the,Queen's
Guineas.
All steer must have a daily
weight gain of 2.9 pounds bet-
ween April 15 and Oct. 15, 1979;
weigh a minimum of 850 pounds
by Oct. 15, 1979; be examined by
a county culling committee
between Oct. 1-15 and be trained
and housed on the same farm
until transported the com-
petition.
This year several area 4-H
members will participate in the
competition. They are Sharon
Alton, Lucknow; Stephen
Caldwell, Blyth;' Paul Johnston,
Bluevale;, Sherri and David
Marshall, Blyth; Irvin Pease,
Blyth; Betty Ann and Brian
Goetz, Mildmay; David Weber,
Mildmay and Tom White,
Teeswater.
He's Love Sick
Paul Johnston, 15, managed to
qualify this year along with his
steer, Clide.
This is Paul's third year of 4-H
involvment and he is now a senior
member of the Brussels beef calf
club. In the last two years he has
won firsts for showmanship in the
beef division and overall
showmanship including beef and
dairy cattle.
Paul explained that training
steers is not an easy task. "It
takes all summer just to get a
calf to walk beside you." Once in
the ring the exhibitor makes sure
the steer is standing squarely on
all fours. For this Paul bought
himself a $10 show stick.
Paul's steer was born in June,
1.978, and now weighs 1,100
pounds. Clide clearly qualifies
for the guineas however he does
have one problem: Bonn1e. For
anyone who doesn't know the
story, Bonnie is Clide's girl
friend. But in this case she is a
Belted Galloway heifer owned by
Paul's younger brother. Ap-
parently Bonnie and Clide spent
some time together on the
Johnston farm but unfortunately
for the two love birds they had to
be separated for training pur-
poses. Paul said Clide has never
been the same and now isn't
eating as much as his exhibitor
would like. Rums' has it the two
will reunite in the big pasture in
the sky.
His Second Year
For Irvin Pease this year
marks his'second attempt for the
title. e e ined last year's
lens with, "I didn't have a big
enough calf." However he felt he
received good experience,
especially in gmnling tech-
niques.
Irvin, 19, will be showing an
Aberdeen Angus. He said the
steer gained 2.6 pounds per day
and now weighs 1,090 pounds.
Irvin hasn't had too much
trouble with his steer, "He
learned fast and is obedient."
However the trick here may be in
the coaching for Irvin. A six-year
4-H veteran, he is well ex-
perienced. He has won, two first
for showmanship and one for his
steer.
This year he was the vice
president of the 4-H Exchange.
As a result of the program Irvin
spent one week on a swine
operation in Indiana.
But Irvin isn't limited to far-
ming. He raw is taking a welding
course at Conestoga College in
Stratford and hopes to open his
own welding shop in the future.
As far as his steer's future
goes, it's going fast. After the
Competition all calves will be up
for auction at dw fair.
