Whiting of Brunner, Stewart McGillawee of Stratford. Lincoln White and R. M. Peck are 1946 delegates to the an- nual meeting of the Canadian Short- horn Association. Reporting on the association's 1945 show, held at Stratford, Geo. Waldie Of Stratford said that it had been the fifth annual show, the first and third having also been held at Stratford, while the second and fourth were at Exeter. The showing of steers, a new feature this year, proved itself a success, in Mr. Walclie's opinion, and should, he suggested, be continued another 1enl• "We've got a breed of cattle," said Lincoln White, addressing the meet- ing. "that can stand on their own feet, but we've got to boost them. This is a competitive age. If you've a neighbor who's making a profit out of beef cattle, tell people about it - advertise the breed." He hail observed at the stock cat- tle shows this year, said Mr. White, that although the fat cattle were taking first place in the judging, they were not always commanding the top prices:at the auctions which followed. "The same men were buying those cattle who had placed them the day before," Mr. White said; "but when it came to putting their dollars into it they didn't pay too much atten- tion to the way they had placed then in the judging." • Roy Pepper commented that:at the Shorthorn show at Walkerton this year "the judges didn't seem to' care a good deal about flesh over the ribs; they were looking for smoothness," All the cattle at Walk- erton were sold, and at good prices, he said, with the champion Shorthorn going at 30 cents a pound, Mechanized farming is likely to force the land into the hands of big operators,' said Dr. T.

A meet- ing was held at Clinton on Friday night last to make preliminary plans, and officers and committee heads were chosen. Date and location of the match have not been decided upon definitely. However, the match will be held in the early fall, likely at the Port Albert air field. Permis- sion has been granted this week by the government for use of the air field for the plowing match. Instead of the International plow by Rev, Dr. Flounces to the follow- "The high price of machinery," Ire said, "will not allow the small far- mer to'buy this machinery and use, it profitably on a small holding." Special attention to crop' improve- ment, and scientific management of pastures, were urged ` by Dr. Rob- inson on his hearers. "There is no easier way of producing meat," he' said, "than letting the beast pick the grass itself. If you can make two or three blades of grass grow, where one grew before, you are on your way to more 'economical beef production." "It is pretty wall accepted," said Dr. Robinson, "that the Shorthorn ing successful students: secondary school honor graduation diplomas: Marie Evans, Thomas Feeney, Mar- ion Kale; secondary. school 'gradua- tion ,diplomas: Eileen Evans, Leona Holland, MarionKale, Beatrice Lane, Angela Morris, Geraldine Ryan;in- termediate certificates: Bernadette Barry, Jean Costello, Mary' Feeney, Joan Flanagan, Margaret Flanagan, Loreen Jordan, Catharine McIver, Martin Murray, Patricia Ryan, Ma- deline Sloan, Mary Stapleton; win- ner of a Dominion -Provincial grade 13 scholarship, Gerald Ryan.

Commenting on the labor situa- tion, and its possible effects on: the price picture. Dr. Robinson said: 'In the days when leen worked for a dollar or a dollar; and :a half a day, wheat was selling at 90.. cents a bushel.
