Only Horse in Leo Charlesworth's Barn Brings Him Fame, Fortune (By Jack Park, Free Press Sports Editor, in London Free Press) If you called Leo Charlesworth a "one-horse" operator, he wouldn't take the least offence. The veter- an Western Ontario driver and trainer, who confesses he is 69 years young, raced only one horse last year and plans to do the same this season, but with his single steed he won more money and glory than most and got,,„a terrific kick out of doing it. The only campaigner in the Charlesworth stable, in training in Wallacetown, is Grattan Volo, probably one of the finest trotters ever developed in Canada. On U. S. tracks last year it won more than $12,000, had a win record of 2:03 'and was clocked at a mile in a Toledo race in 2:00 2-5. The 2:03 mark, also made at Toledo, was the fastest mile trot- ted by a nine-year-old in the Unit- ed States last year. Coming ten this season, Grattan Volo is expect- ed to do even better, for it is the hope of Charlesworth that his pride and joy can break two min- utes. Ten years of age may sound old for a horse, but the record books are full of cases of standard .breds turning in their best efforts after that age. Single G, for instance, paced a mile in 1:58% when he was 13 years old. Grattan Volo is only now hitting the form it is capable of. for the horse wasn't raced until it was sixyears old. So actually .it has been on the tracks for only three seasons. Grattan Volo is by Bennett Volo 2:04 (Peter Volo 2:02) and is out of Dal Grattan, a fine. producing mare sired by the immortal Grat- tan Royal. The Charlesworth horse was bred by Lawrence Atmore, of Parkhill, and bought by Leo from Art Whitesell, of Tillsonburg. While owner Leo is proud of the winning record of 2:03, he thinks that his horse's best effort was at • Toledo when it was fourth in 2:07 2-5 for a mile and a sixteenth and was beaten by Chris Spencer, Pronto Don and Demon Hanover in that order. That trio was almost the "who's who" in U.S. trotting circles last year. Only Prohimity was miss- ing to make it an all-star field. In that fourth -place effort, Grat- tan Volo was caught in 2:00 2-5 for the mile. Chris Spencer trotted the mile in 1:59 3-5 in that outing. There may b,e another star in the Charlesworth stable in the near future. It is a strawberry roan horse colt, foaled in November at Hanover Shoe Farm, noted U.S. breeding establishment. There is a story behind this colt which most Western Ontario horse- men will appreciate. When the stable of the late W. J. Hyatt was sold at auction, Charlesworth pur- chased Bob Lee, the great stallion,' and Miss Billie Direct, one of the best known mares in that area. Bob Lee bad the•' reputation of being a "man -killer" but Clfarles- worth, always a good man with 'tough horses, wasn't dismayed. Miss Billie Direct had never been in foal and many questioned Leo's purchase of her. Well the roan colt, still at the Hanover farm, is the sequel to this story. His father is Bob Lee and his mother, Miss Billie Direct. Leo sold Bob Lee to the Flowing Mineral Farm at Millersburg, Penn., and Miss Billie Direct was sold to Benny Franks, at the Hanover farm. He promised Leo the colt if Miss Billie Direct was in foal as part of the deal. Asked about his ability to tame "wild horses," Leo just laughed. "No horse is really had," he said. "Most of them they call 'wild' have either been scared as youngsters or mis-treated. I make a pal of my horses and it has paid off," he said. The veteran is currently living in Dutton and doing his training at Wallacetown. He hasn't decided where he will campaign this sea- son, but will likely start at North- ville, Michigan. plied by Murdoch's orchestra. Hold Congregational, Meeting The annual meeting of St. An- drew's United Church, Kippen, was held on Tuesday evening, Jan. 30. The reports of the various depart- ments and organizations of the church showed that though there had been a slight decrease in mem- bership, the finances of the church had been well maintained, nearly all of the organizations showing in- creases. A period of silence was observed to mark the passing of two most valued members of the church during the past year, in the persons of T. N. Forsyth and Earl Sproat; a resolution of sympathy to be sent to the Rev. John Rich- ardson, a former pastor and now residing in Kippen, assuring him of the congfegation's prayerful thought during his long illness, was adopted unanimously. The meeting elected two new church trustees in Messrs. Herbert Jones and R. M. Peck, whilst the annual elections to the board of managers resulted in the appoint- ment of Messrs. Ross Broadfoot, John Cooper, Joe McLellan and Robt. McGregor for a term of three years. The meeting was presided over by the Rev. Albert Hinton, the minister, and D. E. Kyle acted as secretary. At its conclusion de- licious refreshments were served by the ladies present. :-.4-41e211149,001 —tea 'W cry A new and different blend with a mild and pleasing flavour. Firm and smooth to chew.

No amount of care during the brooding, rearing and laying period can correct the 'ef- fects of faulty incubation, accord- ing to tests made by A. Salisbury, Head Poultryman at the Experi- mental Station at Saanichton, B.C. Eggs from three different breed- ing lines were incubated up to the fourteenth day in an incubator that always gave good results at the Saanichton Station. Then one-half of the eggs from each breeding stock was transferred to a less efficient incubator. The chicks hatched from both machines were brooded and reared together and carried through the first laying year in the same pend. From the good incubator, 82 per cent of the pullets survived the year and laid an average of 229 eggs per bird, but only 47 per cent from the poor incubator survived and these averaged 187 eggs per bird. Former Brussels Reeve Passes ve Poultrymen Advised to Buy Chicks By Grade Funeral services for Hairy A. Keys, 77, who died suddenly from a heart attack at his home in Brus- sels, were conducted Monday after- noon, He was born in Grey Township and farmed there most of bis life. He took a keen interest in munici- pal affairs, was reeve for many yaars, a counciiloK and also a school trustee, He was a member of the Presbyterian Church. and of St. John's Masonic Lodge. He and Mrs. Keys celebrated their golden wedding a year ago last December. Surviving also are two sons, Har- old. Grey Township; James. Mc- ' Killop Township; one daughter, Mrs. Alvin Pride, Waterloo; one brother, Frank, Milestone, Sask., and one sister, Mrs. Mary Speiran, i Brussels. Under a system of grading and inspection the Canadian consumer for years has been assureds 'of getting the quality he has paid for. Canadian poultrymen can now do the same by selecting chicks grad- ed and sold ander the authority of the Livestock and Livestock Pro- ducts Act. Officials of the Department of Agriculture's Poultry Production Service at Ottawa point out that there are special grades for chicks and poults produced under the reg- ulations of the Act and consist of breeders classifications and com- mercial classifications. Under the breeders classification, there are two grades available direct from R.O.P. breeders. The 'Canadian R.O.P. Pedigreed Chicks' are wing -banded chicks produced from qualified R.O.P: parent stock and are particularly recommended to head hatchery supply flocks. "Canadian R.O.P. Female Chicks" are also wing banded and are in- tended ntended as a source of females re- placement for hatchery supply flocks. Commercial classifications offers a choice of three grades and are available from breeder or commer- cial hatcheries. These are produced either as purebreds or crossbreds and are intended, primarily for the commercial production of eggs or meat. The highest grade of chicks available in commercial quantities are the "Canadian R.O.P. Bred Chicks," which have R.O.P. breed- ing on both sides of the family. Those possessing R.O.P. breeding on the sire side only go into the "Canadian R.O.P. Sired Chicks" grade. The last commercial classi- fication or grade of chicks is term- ed "Canadian Approved .Chicks" and is produced by healthy parent stock selected on physical basis only. Birds cannot produce beyond their inherited ability and officials in the Department stress the fact that the breeding behind the chicks has an important bearing on finan- cial returns. Alberta's St. Mary's River dam will provide irrigation for 345,000 moisture -starved acres. The date of Easter can vary as much as 35 days, from March 21 to April 25. McKillop Farmer, Glen G.
