Seaforth Juniors,
Is Top Scorer
Waterloo Sisk fins and Seaforth
Hurons share top balling after two
weeks of the O>EIA. Junior, "B"
season have gone by. Siskina are
undefeated in four starts, having
one nlgre win than Owen Sound
Greys, who -are unbeaten, while
three members of the two -win, two -
loss Hurons are one -two -three in
the scoring race.
Linemates Ernie Smith, Jack Mc-
Llwain and Mery Shantz boast to-
tals of 18, 16 and 15 points, respec-
tively. They. have scored 24 of
Seaforth's 34 goals to- date.
Convener Herb Parker has an-
nounced one additional schedule
change. The Dundas at Sarnia
game December 17, has been drop-
ped and the Dundas at Sarnia
game January 14 will be a four -
pointer.
Two, teams are now playing 27
games, seven others 26 games, and
Sarnia only 23. Each four -point
game will count as two games
played in the standing. Thus a
win would be two wins for four
points, a tie a win and a loss for
each side. In this way the stand-
ing will show each team playing
27 games, with the points being
balanced proportionately.

114 billion pounds more, milk or 80
per cent of the milk production in-
crease. But due to drought and
diversion of milk to other outlets,
butter production for the first sev-
en months of this year is down al-
most three million pounds, or 2 per
cent compared with the same per-
iod a year ago.
Ontario and Quebec account for
about two-thirds of all the milk
produced in Canada. In 1954 these
two provinces manufactured 65 per
cent of the 313 million pounds of
butter made in Canada, 92 per
cent of the 85 million pounds of
cheese, 82 per cent of the 275 mil-
lion pounds of evaporated milk,
and 88 per cent of the 103 million
pounds of dried milk. The two
provinces have 69 of the 76 com-
bined butter plants in Canada, 7
of the 11 evaporated milk plants
and 66 of the 83 dried milk plants.
It is apparent that only in the
provinces of Ontario and Quebec
it is possible to divert milk from
one product to another in appreci-
able volume.
Disappearance of all dairy pro-
ducts has increased during the past
five years, due to population in-
crease, but cheese, evaporated
milk, and dried skim milk, stand
out as products that have made
gains in their use.
During the past six years, the
per capita consumption of cheese
has gone from 4.8 pounds to 6.3
pounds. an increase of 312 per
cent. Evaporated milk consump-
tion has risen during the period
from 14.7 pounds in 1949 to 182
pounds last year. an increase of
about 24 per cent. Per capita con
sumption of dried skim milk has
increased from 2.8 pounds in 1949
to 4.7 poupds in 1954. an increase
of approximately 68 per cent. The
two dairy products that have not
made per capita gains are fluid
milk and butter.
In taking an overall look at the
picture at the present time, the
world market for butter is weak
For cheese it is firm, and coun
tries that have a flexible indus
try—for example the Netherlands
and New Zealand—are able to
swing their production from but-
ter to cheese with facility to take
advantage of the market.
There is a world shortage of
dried skim milk at the present time
and it will be at least the end of
the year before the production of
this product from Australia and
New Zealand will be available to
-important countries.
As population increases and in-
dustries concentrate in areas such
as Ontario. Quebec and the Paci-
fic Coast, the demand for fluid milk
for market purposes and for ice
cream will drain at times the sup-
ply from manufacturing plants,
such as cheese and butter, the
latter of which has a bearing on
dried skim milk products. With
the advent of better roads, the
hauling of whole milk is not the
problem of a few years ago. There
are areas in Canada where con-
centrated milk products and cheese
factories could operate without the
danger of having the supply of
milk dwindle to the point of ceas-
ing operation. as is the case at
the present time in certain areas
of Ontario and- Quebec.
CANADIAN
PLOWMEN
- ABROAD •
by WILL C. BARRIE, monager•
1955
CANADIAN PLOWING TEAM
(Editor's Note: W. C. Barrie,
of.,,Galt, Out., a past president
of the Ontario Plowmen's As-
sociation and manager of the
Canadian plowing team at the
third annual World Plowing
Match in Sweden, has sent
home on -the -spot reports of his
trip with team members, Joe.
Tran, of CIaremont, Ont., and
Ivan McLaughlin, of Stouff-
ville, Ont. Here is the second
of his reports).
LONDON.—Our party, consisting
of Joe Tran, the 1954 Canadian
plowing champion, Ivan McLaugh-
lin, runner-up; Mrs. McLaughlin,
Mrs. Barrie and myself, as team
manager, left the Empress of Scot-
land at her Liverpool dock at 7
a.m. and boarded the train for
London. After we had conVinced
the customs officers that we
weren't carrying any contraband,
we settled down in a first-class
coach. •
During the 194 miles between
Liverpool and London, we must
have passed through 12 or 14 tun=
nels, some of them quite long, but
others only long enough for honey-
mooners to pucker up before they
would be out in the daylight again.
The English fields are much
smaller than those in Canada, and
every acre seemed to be produc-
ing crops of some kind. Water
appeared to be plentiful with live-
ly streams and canals traversing
the countryside. A great many
artificial farm ponds were sighted,
indicatingthat the English farm-
ers, like the Canadian farmers, re-
alize the importance of water con-
servation.
Luxuriant Farms
We saw many fine herds of beef
and dairy cattle, and large flocks
of sheep on every side. This was
not surprising, since there seemed
to be no scarcity of luxuriant grass
on every farm.
We passed through the large
town of Rugby, the place where
rugby football originated. Nearer
London we saw the school at Har-
row which many of England's
famous men have attended, among
them, Sir Winston Churchill. We
passed through Coventry, the city
that was so nearly wiped out by
Hitler's bombers early in the last
war.
'At Home' in London
When we got off at London's
Euston station, a young man from
Esso Petroleum, which is one of
the donors of the Esso Golden
Plow, emblematic of world plowing
supremacy, stepped up to me and
said, "Are you Will Barrie from
Canada?" He took us by car to
our hotel, The Kenilworth, on Great
Russell Street. and placed him-
self at our service. This very
friendly greeting made us feel
right at home in this great city.
After getting settled in our
rooms and resting for a short
while, we all stepped out to see a
few of the sights of London. The
scars left by Hitler's airmen in
the Battle of Britain are slowly be-
ing covered up, but it will be many
years before the city is complete-
ly restored.
The newer stores are very mod-
ern, and it was a difficult task to
keep from buying things we
couldn't carry with us. It was
rather amusing to see the mem-
bers of our party, after making a
purchase, take out a handful of
English coins and say "help your-
self."
Morris F. of A. Has
Turkey Banquet
Fellow Travellers -
Next day we decided to go on
a motor coach tour and, shortly
after we started, the guide asked
the passengers to identify them-
selves. We learned that over 80
per cent were Canadians. Among
them was a group returning to
Vancouver from a Youth Congress
in Moscow, and when they learned
we were going to Sweden, they sug-
gested that we should visit Mos-
cow too. When they left the bus,
they went to a news stand and
bought copies of -the Daily Work-
er.
We all enjoyed the tour, which
took in Buckingham Palace, West-
minster Abbey, The Houses of
Parliament, London Bridge, the
Tower of London, and several oth-
er famous places. Seeing the bur-
ial place of so many of the most
prominent men in English history
was a thrill we shall never forget.
To view the inscriptions on the
burial places of men such as Oli-
ver Cromwell, David Livingston,
General Wolfe and Lord Tennyson
in Westminster Abbey was some-
thing to make one stop and think.
Later we were most fortunate in
arriving at Buckingham Palace in
time to see the colorful Changing
of the Guard.
Took in Musical
That evening we were guests at
a musical show, "Water Gypsies"
at the Winter Gardens, and then
had dinner at an Italian restaurant,
the Generos. This proved a grand
finale to a busy and most inter-
esting day.
On the following morning we
drove to a typical English farm
at Eastbourne in Sussex overlook-
ing the English Channel. The 60 -
mile drive over the winding roads
and the picturesque towns and vil-
lages through which we passed
were sights we had hardly dared
to expect. The farm, consisting of
1,000 acres, was worked by Col.
J. N. Davies, who once farmed
for 12 years in the Okanagan Val-
ley, B.C. He has 500 Suffolk Down
breeding ewes, and 75 Polled An-
gus cows.
He employs three men—a shep-
herd, a tractor man, and a handy-
man. With good markets for beef,
lamb and wool close at hand, he
has little fear of surpluses or poor
prices. His present prices com-
pare favorably with ours in Can-
ada, but his taxes are much higher
than ours. His animals were graz-
ing in knee-high grass, which as-
sures him of plentiful feed for the
winter.
Place With a Past
On this farm were several miles
of stone fences five feet high, built
during the depression years after
the Crimean War, and gun em-
placements used by Canadian artil-
lery units during the last war.
It was here that Hitler's inva-
sion was expected and every pre-
paration had been made to hold
:him off. At the entrance to the
farm lane were six reinforced con-
crete pillars four feet high, three
feet square, and about six feet
apart. These were built to keep
the German tanks from reaching
the level country if they should
happen to make a landing.
In the evening the British. Irish
and Canadian plowmen and their
friends were entertained at the
famous Trocadero restaurant. '
On our last day in London. some
of us visited the British Museum.
It is a massive building, and it
would take days for a person to
see everything. That evening at
St. Ermine Hotel, a press recep-
tion was held for the visiting plow-
men. This was to be our last so-
cial event in London as we were
leaving the city the next after-
noon.
Next Week: We fly the North
Sea.
The Morris Township Federation
of Agriculture held a turkey ban-
quet and its annual meeting Fri-
day evening in. the Foresters' Hall.
Belgrave. Rev. Bren de Vries said
grace. Howard Wilkinson w a s
elected president for 1956.
After dinner. provided by the
Ladies' Guild of Trinity Anglican
Church, Richard Procter introduc-
ed the members at the head table.

welcomed the guests. Mr. de Vries
spoke briefly on farming condi-
tions in Holland. Short speeches
were given by the county president.
Wilfred Shortreed; Gordon Greig.

ty, and Harvey Johnston, new man-
ager of the county farm at Clin-
ton. The auditors' report was giv-

C. Van Camp, president of the
Guild. The program for the eve-
ning was the play. "Come Out of
Your Coma," presented by the
Teeswater Junior Farmers.

Some farmers in the picturesque,
low-lying Suffolk Broads district
of England bring in the hay by
water. So it was logical for a
British boat builder to use light-
weight aluminum to produce a
650 -pound punt capable of car-
rying
arrying a load of hay more than six
times its own weight.
In Canada aluminum is better
known among farmers as a non -
rusting, heat -reflecting, easily
handled material for barna and
roofs and silos ... though of
course it has many other farm
uses, from milk cans to windmill
blades. No hay -bouts, though.

not every farmer owned his own bull bi 'tc
cows to one in the neighbourhood, and that the
use of a community bull exposed all ,the herds
involved to all of the community diseases. Often
these diseases were spread and it became impos-
sible, in some cases, to find a farmer owning a bull
that would breed his neighbours' cbws. This
forced each farmer to have his own bull.
Every possible precaution is taken with arti-
ficial breeding service and the possibility of dis-
ease spread is practically nil. This is due to the
fact that new plastic breeding tubes are used for
each cow; boots are washed and disinfected be-
tween barns; bulls used are under the strictest
government health regulations.
Do as nearly 6,000 other farmers have done during 1955, call
the Waterloo Cattle Breeding Association when you have cows to
breed—all breeds, grades and purebreds. The cost is low.
