into existence by the Maple Cattle
Breeders' Association as a self-sup-
porting venture, is now making rapid
progress. This project was organized
and financed' entirely by the farmers
of the district, with only technical
assistance and advice from the -de-
partment.
Ontario Agricultural College at
Guelph, where considerable artificial
insemination work has been done, is
giving valuable, assistance in the
training of technicians by providing
special two -weeks' courses , for vet-
erinaries and others who are interest-
ed in learning the technique of arti-
ficial insemination. All of the tech-
nicians now employed in the various
units, have been trained in these
courses.
Artificial breeding is still in its in-
fancy in Ontario, but the success al-
ready achieved will give impetus to
its spread' to other areas hi Ontario
where there is a sufficient concentra-
tion of cattle to make it feasible.
On general principles, eows within a
ten -mile radius from headquarters of
the unit are accepted for artificial
