Robert Carbert, of Wingham, as
'guest speaker, spoke on "Radio

gress from the telephone and tele-
graph and prophesied what may
be expected in the future. Radio,
he said, has come out of the liv-

Reports On Year
Gordon Greig, county fieldman,
reporting on the year's activi-
ties,. stated that resolutions coming
from township federations, going
through the county group to the
Ontario Federation, and on to the
Provincial or Dominion govern-
ments, often bring about changes
of policy. To name a few, he cited
T.B. restricted areas, a move to
establish floor prices for eggs,
calfhood vaccination, and a move
in regard to daylight saving.
Twenty-five commodities today
are being marketed under the
Marketing Act. He stated there is

a need for reform in the system
of rural assessing, stating that
Huron County has made a forward
step in that it has a county asses-
sor. The Federation of Agricul-
ture recommended that in estab-
lishment of schools, the cost be
borne by provincial and dominion
governments to take the heavy
burden away from the agricultur-
al people. In the expropriation of
lands by hydro, pipelines and high-
ways, the feeling is that farmers
be left as well off after as before.
A wheat -producing market scheme
is assured, he stated. Sufficient
signatures have been received in
Huron County towards the move,
and a vote soon is expected.
He asked the federation to stick
together. It has taken 19 years to
build up to a strong federation.
Mr. Carbert said the new Farmers'
Union movement is tending to cre-
ate more interest among the farm
folk, in the Federation of Agricul-
ture. Mr. Carbert also urged the
parents to stimulate the interest
of young people in 4-H work.
Reports on 4-H Clubs
In reporting briefly on 4-H Club
work, Harold Baker, associate
agricultural representative, stated
that of 349 4-11 club members in
the county last year, only 10 were
from Tuckersmith Township, and
urged the parents to have their
young people join the calf, swine
or grain clubs in the Seaforth ar-
ea or similar clubs at Clinton, or
other centres where there were
clubs.
Others speaking briefly were
L. E. Cardiff, M.P., T. Pryre,
M.P.P., and Reeve James Doig.
Douglas McNeil, vice-president
of the county federation, conduct-
ed the elections and the church's
pastor, Rev. W. E. Milroy, wel-
comed the gathering and led in
sing -songs. With Mrs. Wm. Rog-
erson as accompanist, musiegl
numbers were given by Carol and
Bert Pepper, duets; quartette
numbers by B. Pepper, George
Turner, Gordon and Stanley Johns
and Nelson McClinchey played
piano solos. Carl McClinchey, sec-
retary -treasurer, in his financial
statement, showed the year's ex-
penses to be $104.22, with the re-
ceipts as $433.07, leaving a balance
of $328.85.
Thanks to the women serving
the banquet was expressed by
Robert McGregor, to which Mrs.
E. Boyes responded.
"How many bums lives in' your
block besides yourself?"
-Are you trying to insult me?"
"Well, then how many bums
live in your block, including your-
self?"
HURON COUNTY FARMERS DISCUSS
DAIRY HERD IMPROVEMENT PLAN
A special meeting held Monday
afternoon at Clinton saw a sufficnt
ent number of farmers in favor of
organizing a Huron County Dairy
Herd Improvement Assgciation.
According to G. W. Montgom-
ery, agricultural representative
for Huron County, other farmers
interested have until Wednesday,
February 2, to file application.
Clifford E. Morrow, fieldman on
the livestock branch, Ontario De-
partment of Agriculture, Toronto,
addressed •the meeting and ex-
plained rules and regulations gov-
erning the association's policy as
well as a record of performance
privileges available to members.
"Herd testing is a keystone to
herd improvement. It provides
the most effective means of de-
termining the production capabili-
ties of each cow in the herd. With
this information at his disposal, a
dairyman can select the efficient
producers and weed out the board-
ers. In doing so he is practising
a sound program of herd improve-
ment," said the speaker.
In Ontario a testing service is
available to owners of grade or
mixed herds under the Dairy Herd
Improvement Association. As a
result of an agreement made be-
tween the Federal and Provincial
Departments of Agriculture, mem-
bers with mixed herds may enroll
their purebred cattle in record of
performance in accordance with
rules outlined.
Before testing services will be
provided, an association consist-
ing of not less than 22, or more
than 25 members, must be organ-
ized. Each member must own a
grade or mixed herd. For pur-
poses of this policy, a mixed herd
is one that contains both grades
and purebreds.

It was early in the morning. Seeping coal gas fumes had
all but overcome a little girl and two women in a suburban
Toronto home. One of the women, Mrs. Mary Hague,
struggled to die telephone and barely managed to dial
"Operator" before collapsing.
Unable to get any response, the night operator, Mrs.
Elizabeth Brown, immediately notified the police. Within
minutes the victims were reached and revived. Through
her prompt action three lives were spared. Quick thinking
in an emergency has made a heroine of many a Bell oper-
ator, for most people turn to the telephone for help in all
kinds of trouble—often rely on the operatorforassistance.
There may never come a time when you need the fire
department, police, or a doctor in a frantic hurry —
but isn't it a coiiifort to know that behind your telephone
are people on wide-awake duty 24 hours a day?
