Paterson, Agri- cultural Representative of Huron County, re a free trip to the Royal Winter Fair, Toronto. The Ontario Government are planning to entertain 500 farm boys between the ages of 16 and 22 years inclusive. 'This will include Free transportation, board and lodging and side trips to places of interest in the city. it will be a very instructive and interesting trip for the boys who are fortunate to be selected. There will be a junior judg- ing competition held in each County to select the ten boys scoring highest in the following classes—one of. Horses, Beef Catle, Dairy Cattle, Sheep, Swine, Poultry, Fall Wheat, Oats. Sweet Clover, Potatoes and Apples. The local judging competi- tion will be held under the County Agricultural representative on Tues- day, Oct. 25th, at 9 n'cIocic a..m in the Town of Clinton. I am taking this means to advise the boys of Mc- Killop between 16 and 22 years the rules to govern this competition, and T hope McKillop township will be rep- resented at Clinton to uphold the youth, of our township, and possibly gain a place on the County team of ten to represent Huron at the judging competition at the Royal Winter Fair this year.
