Royal Winter Fair
Now In Full Swim.
A 26 -acre farm with literally I proofed, steam -heated, of steel
millions of dollars' worth of live- ' and brick construction.
stock and machinery opened
November 15 in the heart of To-
ronto. It was the Royal Agricultur-
al Winter Fair. Running through
to November 23 it will again, as
since 1922, be the show window
of North American agriculture,
The show was originally held
with the purpose of raising ag-
ricultural standards through an
annual competitive exhibition.
Membership includes provincial
and federal government, major
Canadian cities and agricultural
representatives from all prov-
inces. King George V., granted
the Pair a Royal Charter back
in 1922 and hence the "Royal"
in the title.
The building which houses the
fair is considered the finest and
most unique agricultural show
building in the world. It is fire -
There is accommodation in the
building for 1,288 horses, 2,200
cattle, 1,200 sheep, 1,000 swine,
8,000 poultry and other exhibits.
There is space, in fact, for every-
thing from Canada's largest dis-
play of tropical fish to a flower
show which brings entries from
every section of half a dozen
countries. Stabling of the Horse
Show proper covers two floors
with 498 open stalls and 680 box
talls.
Cheshire Cheese
Every modern advance in agri-
culture will be displayed at this
year's Fair. Dairy producers are
particularly interested in the
movement sponsored by the On-
tario 'Department of Agriculture
to bring about production of
Cheshire cheese, samples of which
were imported from England by

According to Ontario's Minister
of Agriculture, Hen, T. L. Ken-
nedy, the population of the Mid-
lands in England were partic-
ularly interested in Cheshire
cheese and were using a "fair
amount" of it. "Howdver, when
the austerity program was put
into effect in England, milk was
so controlled that it was impos-
sible to manufacture Cheshire
cheese," he said. "It appears
therefore that there may be an
outlet where Canadian cheese
makers might market this type
of cheese if they wish to under-
take it. It is marketed at 10 to
12 weeks of age or longer ac-
cording to the taste of the cust-
omer,and is a type of cheese
that is quite tart.'
Tanned Grass"
Also of considerable interest to
farmers will be ...the "June in
January" feeding process known
as "canned grass," with special
equipment whereby hay harvest-
ed in the green stage may be cut,
chopped and loaded in one opera-
tion. Mowing, raking, stacking
and hand -pitching are eliminated
by the Canadian -designed and
built machine.
According to agricultural ex-
perts, the farmer may now cut
his hay while it is still knee-
high grass, rich in protein and
carotene;chop it fine while it is
still moist and "can" it in a
silo or pit, Preserved in its own
juices, the canned, grass is finally
fed with its full complement of
vitamins and protein.
The Pair will also bring to-
gether breeders from the British
Isles, Canada and the United
States to exchange ideas with
the ultimate object of increasing
the exchange of knowledge and
even cattle.
Poultry in Demand
Poultry raisers will be told
during the Fair that the smallest
pack in Canada today is in the
greatest demand — at the top
prices. Dressed poultry exhibits
and a subsequent public auction
of young turkeys, geese, ducks,
chickens and capons are to be
held. The Royal's prize list this
year is aimed at top grades, with
officials declaring that the aristo-
cnat of poultrydom these days is
the lightest grade, special milk -
fed chicken. Next is the, A milk
fed and if Canadian raisers went
in for more "A's" there would
be a corresponding increase in
"specials" which command high
prices but are in limited supply,
Federal Department of Agncul-
tural officials declare.
GRAND BEND—Harry Watson,
33, Grand Bend, was admitted to
Memorial Hospital, St. Thomas,
suffering injuries received when
the car he was driving left High-
way 74, three miles north of
New Sarum to crash down two
trees.
