One; Soong N. o,ktr who stopped by the 1 nl'1!•Pep trailer commented on the d'if, re nee between the Junior Farmer, :-t the fair and the kind of young people he was used to seeing in N, -,m York, "It would l e difficult to Juni Jnr a more complete contrast t''an t,e- twcen the yennig Lincoln ,.1'.mty farmer and the youth on 52nd Street." He said, "It is not >o tt!uCh the difference in appearat:ar, al- though your lads look a little more hearty than ours, but it is a differ- ence in manner. These young people make plenty of noise and have lots of fun, but there seems to be a purposefulness about them that quite frankly frightens me. It is quite a shock to a young city fellow, who does not know what be will do with his future, to find these young fellows and girls forg- ing ahead as if they know exactly ly what they are about." "And the girls too," he went on. "What a difference there is. Just now I .saw a pretty, young girl about eighteen, I should think, showing her heifer in the cattle show, There she stood itt her riding breeches with her blond curls hang- ing down her back, and talked like an expert with the other cattle breeders, old and young. There was no girlish laughter about it either, I can tell you. She meant business, and she knew what she was talk- ing about.' Someone pointed out to us the other day that with all the cattle picture shown on thls page this fall there have been very few pictures of the noble and hardy Angus. "What's the matter?" he asked, "Don't they feed Ful -O -Pep to them or something?" "Ohl Dear me, nol" we replied, "What an idea." The truth of the matter is that we have seen all kinds of them, Ful -O -Pep fed and winning prizes to boot, but the trouble is that they are just not photogenic. Once again we repeat that the pictures shown on these pages may be obtained by writing to the Ful - 0 -Pep Photographer, 123, Eigh- teenth Street, New Toronto, On- tario. Thank you. Photo by Ful-O-P.p The Woolly Face in the Foreground of this picture belongs to a very young and very frightened Angus bull which had been playing up and down the ranks of Angus cattle, until he was "cornered" by the photographer. The puzzled, little face behind belongs to three-year-old Harold Canning, of Beamsville, who could not decide whether to laugh or cry. The two -week-old Anglia calf, `Shorty-," soon made his peace with the photo- grapher when he discovered that he was a nil-tb-Pop ntn. "Shorty" eats It himself. • • • Junior Farmer Sells Raffle Tickets Photo by Ful -O -Pep Photographer The Smiling Dairy Maid, at the Beamsville Fair, is Miss Nelda Romagnoli, of Beamsville, selling tickets on a pedigreed calf, on behalf of the Lincoln County Holstein Association of Western Ontario. A member of the Junior Farmers' Association, Nelda went around the fairgrounds all afternoon, followed by her Holstein calf, Daisy, and sold tickets to people like Mrs. Henry Clark of Cayuga, Haldimand County, who is show signing the book.
