CLINTON NEWS -RECORD
G. W. Montgomery Uniquely ;Honoured
Speaks to Class "A" Fairs Group
achievement program on its Fall
Fair day. The Seaforth Fall Fair
he reported, has also developed a
county ehampionship 4-H beef calf,
show, and a county championship
4.11 swine show; these two shows
had a combined entry of 78 at
the 1953 Seaforth Fall Fair.
Club leaders, Mr. Montgomery
said, usually serve as the link to
ensure good co-operation between
the fall fairs and the 4-H clubs,
so that each organization can
help the other, There were 41
4-H club leaders in Huron last
said,all31
year,he d of them
were also directors urs of agricultur-
al
ri l
ou tor -
g
al societies.
s
'With the fair board providing
proper signs✓, to identify the ex-
hibit, ample ring space and dis-
play areas, the well -organized 4-11
display or exhibit contributes
much to the fair program. With
enough agricultural societies to
serve the agriculture of our
county adequately, no 'attempt
has been made to establish sep-
arate Junior Farmer fairs, but
rather our societies are promot-
ing junior exhibits, and also are
encouraging juniors to become as-
sociated with agricultural societ-
ies."
"Because of a large livestock
population, particularly hogs and
cattle, not too many of our Huron
farriers are interested in the pro-
duction of registered seed," Mr.
Montgomery noted, "but rather in
the growing of a large acreage of
mixed grain for livestock -feeding
purposes. For this reason our ag-
ricultural societies through their
field crop competitions are con-
tinually introducing new varieties
of registered seed. This seed is
given the acid growing test on
many farms in the area, and then
when it is 'on display at the fair
other farmershavean opportun-
ity to compare it with seed they
are using on their own farms."
O
Hospital visitors of the Canad-
ian Red Cross regularly distribute
cigarettes, cards, stationery, shav-
ing supplies and other comforts to
hospitalized veterans
,"Close -co-operation between fairs
and the 4-1I Club organization is
proving a benefit to both types of
activity in Huron County," said G.
W. Montgomery, in art address de-
livered last week at the annual
convention of Class "A" and Class
"B", fairs,. in Toronto. Mr, Mont-
gomery was one of the principal
speakers at the convention.
Selection of Mr. Montgomery,
agricultural representative for
Huron County, to speak to the
convention, was regarded as an
unusual distinction, since Huron
County, as it happens, has no
Class "A" or Class "B" fairs with-
in its own boundaries. Many Hu-
ron exhibitors, however, show at
the Class "A" fair at London, and
the Class "B" fairs at Stratford
arid: Teeswater,;
At the 1953 Western Fair at
London, Mr. Montgomery noted,
86 junior farmers from Huron
competed in :4-1-1 livestock, home
making, and judging competitions.'
Huron itself, Mr. .Montgomery
said, has 11 active Class "C" fairs,.
two with spring shows' and nine
with fall shows.
Twenty-one of the 24 4 -II clubs
in Huron last year were sponsored
by,, agricultural societies, he said,
and every agricultural society in
Huron sponsored at least one 4-11
club, and had at least one 4-1i

SS 4 FORUM,
(By Mrs.. I:, Merrill)
The S.S. No, 4, Goderich Town
ship Farm Forum ^let on Monday
dight at the home of; Mr. and Mrs
Wihiam• Lobb. 'The radio topic
for discussion was "Farm Policy
In Relation. To Production," This
is a very vital subject as all the
farmers of Canada are being af-
fected; by food surpluses,
The question asked was: "In
view of the fact that a world food
bank does not appear likely in the
near future, what kind of
mark-
etingand productionpolicy
would
be best for Canadian farmers?"
The Forum members were not
in favour, of controlled production,
but would urge F.A.O. (Food and
Agriculture Organization) to get
busy to adopt a world food plan.
They believe that an internation-
al , agency 'could .distribute the
surpluses without interfering with
regular marketing channels or
having a depressing effect on
world farm prices. 'A stabilizat-
ion fund, like . New Zealand and,
Sweden have in operation, might
be set up for Canadian farmers,
Following the discussion games,
of "500" and Lost Heir were
played. Lunch was served.
The meeting next week will be
at the home pf Mr.. and Mrs. Ira
Merrill.

(By Mrs. L Merrill)
The S.S. No. 4 Goderich Town
ship
Farm
Forum met
this week
-at the home
Lobb. There werea12 me bers
present. The radio • topic for dis-
cussion was "Uniform Grading-
Aids Sales, Quality."
During the discussion it was de-
cided that along with what is sold
graded, beef, fresh vegetables and
cheese might be graded, in our
area. Eggs, in. our area are bought
and sold to the consumer by grade.
If cattle could be sold on the same
principle as hogs, where the pro-
ducer is paid after the beast is
slaughtered and graded, we think
it could be done. Potatoes should
be graded, as should cheese. It
would involve some difficulty with
cattle from the west, meaning a
considerable delay before the pro-
ducer would received his cheque.
Grading of cheese presents the
for bac lenfgth of of beingkept
twhichthe
would.
make it deteriorate in quality and
should be' marked with an inferior
grade by the time the consumer
buys it. ,

FRIENDLY FEW
The Friendly Few Farm, Forum
met at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
Frank Riley with a large attend-
ance. Two groups were formed
for discussion dealing with grading!
of produce. One group thought
beef• bought from the farmer had
12 grades and buying it back didn't
have half the grades and this also
applies to pork grades, Both
groups decided grading suited only
onbeef and pork. Progressive
euchre was played with prizes go-
ing to ladies' high, Mrs, Ross Mc-
Gregor; ladies' low, Mrs. John Mc-
Dougall; men's high, Verne Dale;
