Huron County Juniors Close
Successful Year's Work
The • success , of Hume County's any club project.
various junior clubs during the past Inter -Club Competition
year was noteworthy, according to
G. E. Neleen, Clinton, assistant agri-
cultural representative for Huron
County.
"Several of our club members have
been asking about the final standings
of the various junior clubs in the
County for the past year," he stated
"I am pleased to report that thee
results have been tabulated and the
final standings of club members ob-
tained. A complete report will be
sent to each club member on his or
her project in the near future, and
prize money will be paid as soon as
Possible. I would like to congratulate
all club members,. especially those
who completed them project, on their
fine showing, loyal co-operation and
true spirit of sportsmanship. We
know that only one can win first
place, but, in my estimation, you are
"Each yeareevery organ4zed Junior
Olub hi the Province is eligible to
send ateam of two. members, provid-
ing they are 16 to 21 years of age,
to compete in the ProvinCial Intei'-
Club in their respective
projects. This year at Guelph, Heron
Comity was represented by a Dairy
Calf Club, team composed et Edward
Clutter., Godeeich, and Ross Tre-
waetled, Clintore and a Swine team
with Jack Taylor, Beucefielce and Ray
Wise, 'Clinton, as team members.
Neither team placed in the first ten,
but they did make a creditable show-
ing against stiff pposition. Each
club member will receive a repot of
his standing in the competition in
the near future.
"Blyth Baby Beef Club and Karon
Holstein Calf Club, the former spon-
sored by Blyth Aggicultbral Society,
all winners for your pextimpation in and the latter by Huron Holstein
club work would benefit you to the Breeders Club, held their Achieve -

Prize money amounts to $4.50 for

Provincial Department of Agricel-
ture, and the local sponsoring or-
ganization.
"The high member of the Blyth
Club is Murray Roy, Londesbore, and
the Holstein Club, Edward Clutton,
Goderich.
'Morris Baby Beef ,Club sponsored
by the Township Federation of
culture, held its Achievement Day at
Belgrave School Fair on September
17. High member of this Club is
William Hull, Brussels.
"Exeter Swine Club Achievement
Day was held at Eketer Fair, Septem-
ber 19. This club sponsored by Ex-
eter Pair Board was topped by Brice
Shapton, Exeter.
"Dungannon Fair, September 27,
was the scene of Dungannon Baby
Beef Club Achievement Day. Dun-
gannon Fair Board sponsored this
club which was won by Don Gammon,
Lucknow, This Club also had the
distinction of being the only one in
the County with a 100 per cent com-
pletion.
"Grey 13eef and Dairy Clubs ex-
hibited at Brussels Fair, October 4,
and the first prize winners were Rose
Knight, Brussels, of the Beef Club,
and Douglas Shaw. Ethel, of the
Dairy ,Club. Brussels Fair and Grey
Federation of Agriculture were co-
sponsors of the two clubs.
'Hayfield Swine Club members ex-
hibited their sows at Bayfield Fair
October 9, and the first prize winner
was Clayton McCullough., •Clinton.
Bayfield Agricultural Society spon-
sored this club,
that club work has in a community.
Foremost is the opporutnity that the
young folk get in gaining knowledge
about better livestock through judg-
ing practice, feeding and manage-
ment, through the information con-
tained in the manuals cost of pro-
duction records through the keeping
of monthly feed records. Incident-
ally, this, last -advantage is possibly
the most important of the group be-
cause the keeping ef farm accounts
is almost a necessity now when the
future of your price structure is so
imeertain and there is such a demand
for cost -of -production figures.
Know Profit and Lose
"How important, too, is it for a
farmer to know his profit or loss from
various farm products and livestock,
at the end of the year. Many a
reamer has been truly amazed to
find, after keeping simple gam ac-
counts for a year, just what ex-
penditures are involved in the opera-
tion ef a farm. I would say in a
majority of eases such farmers were
not long in revising their farm or-
ganization so as to include items
that were more profitable and at
the same time deleting those that
were reducing his profit. More young
people are interested in keeping
figures and records, ai
ad if there s
a boy or girl in the family who could
do this, task, I would strongly.edvise
that they start. In the final analysis
they will be serving a two fold per -
pose, increasing. the bey or girl's
interest in the farm and evaluating
the expenditures and receipts of the
farm.
"Club members also learn to some
extent how to conduct a meeting in
a business like manner. If club
members can follow up their achieve-
ments in club work, through Junior
Farmer's organizations their train-
ing in leadership and co-operation is
carried eut more extensively to a
point where they are better fitted to
take their rightful place as leading
citizens in their respective com-
munities.
Eight Junior Clubs
"This year we had in Heron County
eight Junior Clubs of which six were
calf clubs and two were swine. The
total enrohnent of club members in
the spring was 93 and the final coin-
pletions totalled 60, an average of 64
per cent, which is not nearly high
enough when one stops to consider
that 36 per cent of the 93 members
fell by the wayside or simply lost
interest in this very important work.
The percentage completions in my
estimation shoulerhave read 94.9 per
cent.
"However, what we lacked in num-
bers we made up in quality, for
those members who did carry through
to completion showed eonsiderable
interest in their club project and, I
am. sure, 'benefitted to a great extent.
"I would like to take the opportun.
ity of expressing my personal apprec-
iation for teh loyal co-operation and
support, which I received from club
members, club leaders and sponsoring
organizations. A chain is, only as
strong as its weakest link, and each
of the previouly mentioned groups are
equally im,portant to the success oe
THE THINGS THAT
MONEY C FT BUY
HEALTH; A HAPPY HOME; opportunity
for your children; your own peace ef tnind
-e-these are priceless gifts. You can't buy
',them with money.
But reasonable financial security, based on
a planned progranime of personal saving,
can help to guard and guarantee them.
Take your Victory Bonds, for example.
'Pretty reassuring to have them tucked away
es a financial resetve,. always on tap" in
time of opportunity or need. Pretty con-
vincing proof, too, that you really can save
when there's a real saving job to be done.
Perhaps today's rising costs or other lac -
tors are making it hard for you to carry on
your savings programme. By the time you
have met all your expenses, perhaps there's
mighty little left for that all.important
item marked "Savings".
Try putting sa?ings first, not last, on
your budget list. Owe yourself a definite
amount each month, ancl make sure you
collect it. It means careful budgeting, and
putting off buying a good many things you'd
to have. But never forget—this is your
share of what you earn. 'This is the part
of your income which will help to assure
for yourself and your fiunily all the things
that money can't buy.

PERHAPS YOU are already one of the
hundreds of "ou;a:nris of thrifty Canadians
who have a savings account with the Royal
Bank. If not, we invite yott to come in and
open one. Perhaps your first deposit will
have to be small; don't
let that worry you.
The important thing
is to start. It will be a
pleasure to serve you.
