This is a new South American record. This cow was exported as a calf coming from the herd of Lorne B. Reid of Ripley, Ont. She is sired by Keen - dale Loohinvar and her mother by College View Governor making her a 3/4 sister to Maple Lea L.G. Rosine, Ex & All -Can. who is the dam of our young bull, Maple Lea Skokie, and has 5 records on 2X that average over 20,000 of 3.8% milk. Then we remembered that another close relative of the Rosine cow had made a high record and on checking back found that her 100% sister had produced as a two year old, 22765 lbs. of milk, test 3.64%, 828 lbs. of fat. This record was also made in South America. Wonderful production for any country. This is the type of family from which we are choosing our young bulls to carry on the high pro- duction established by the bulls that we are using now and have used previously.

WALTON The Toronto Telegram refers as :follows tothe success 'of a former Walton !boy; They work a 70 -hour week— •and they have only themselves to 'blame. They are up to .their necks in real estate --a big land deal in Soarboro, a potential new town - site west of Toronto, a redevel- opment scheme an 'Chuieh et. and 'houses, houses, houses. (Less than three years ago they were only up to their ankles in real estate. In May, 1953, a freshly -paint- ed sign•went up on Avenue rd., jrrs,t south of Wilson Ave. It said 'Bird and Carter Real Estate. Behind the sign were Dick Bird, 25; George 'Garter, 30; one salesman and two switchboard operators. Six months later they figured their office was doing more busi- ness than any other real estate office in the north end. Twelve months later they opened their second office— at Coxwell and O'Connor. And they bad 35 salesmen working for then. By May, 1955, they needed still another office. So they set up their headquarters at Bay and 'Blom'. This month they will open a fourth Bird and Carter • office at Weston rd., and Eglinton. They now have 70 salesmen, Dick Bird was' born in 'Minton. He went to public school there and in Walton, near 'Seaforth. He started !high school in St. Mary's and finished at the Kitch- ener -Waterloo Collegiate and Vocational Institute, Then he went to the Univer- sity of Western 'Ontario in Lon- don and graduated in 1943 with a B.A. He 'worked for a firm of char- tered accountants, sold life in- surance—and drove a cab for t hree months—!before he discov- ered that real estate was this forte. George 'Carter was born and brought cup in Toronto. He went to Western Teehniicel.Cam'aner;• cial School to take :machine and architectural drafting. • At 17, he went to work in his father's heating and air-condi- tioning (business. From heating, George wentto Housing—and found himself sell- ing real estate out of the same office as Dick Bird. After two years together as salesmen, they decided to go in., to real estate on their own. (Most of the Bird and 'Carter volume is still in housing, "we try to find the house to fit the castoaner." But 'their land, commercial, in- vestment and trade-in depart- ments are taking over an in- creasing share. of the business. When Bird and !Carter started selling real estate they glut 'their training on the jab. But now their own salesmen mist a three-day, 17 -lecture training course 'before they can take out the first client. The reason? "Real estate is getting more technical every •day," Dick Bird said. "The client can't 'be expected to know about real estate. He must depend on the salesman. "Arid we want to make sure he can do so ,with complete 'con- fidence." • WALTON The Walton Group of the WMS. end W.A. 'held their an- nual bazaar and tea in the church on Wednesday after- noon, March 2811 with a very large crowd in attendance. Re- ceiving the visitors was Mrs. W. M. Thomas assisted by 'Mrs. T.
