can Church, Brussels. About 100

Beef Producers
Tour Farms hi
Southern Oniario
Huron County beef producers
toured outstanding farms in South-
western Ontario on Thursday. Car-
ried in two buses and several cars,
the group included some 90 Hur-
on district farmers.
First stop was at Don Watters,
Parkhill, where he is wintering
230 head of cattle in the open
with no shelter whatsoever. This
particular and unusual setup seem-
ed to strike the crowd. Watters
also explained his full feeding pro-
gram.
The group journeyed from there
to .Lawrence Kerr's farms at Chat-
ham, where a Russian delegation
were recent visitors. The Kerr set
up was shown to the group, and is
based on a pole barn. system. It
winters around 500 cattle.
From their the men drove to
Chatham for dinner, accompanied
by the agricultural representatives
from Chatham and also Harold
Huffman, president of Ontario Beef
Producers' Association, who spoke
briefly.
Next stop was at the farm of
Harry Wilson, on the outskirts of
'Chatham, where there were 70
Aberdeen Angus cows. Mr. Wilson,
who raises his own calves in pre-
ference to buying Western cattle.
also operates 750 acres of choice
land in one section.
The next stop was at W. G.
Thompson's farms at Blenheim, a
very large set-up, with pole barn
system, where approximately fif-
teen hundred cattle' are wintered.
The feeding program and set-up
was explained to the group,
From there they went to the
Ontario Hospital at St. Thomas,
where 160 cattle are wintered. This
particular arrangement met with
approval of the crowd, since it
could be worked out in their Own
planning and a similar system
adopted.
At all stops the Huron Producers
were greeted by farm manage-
ment and agricultural representa-
tives. The group drove to Talbot-
ville for supper, where Robert Mc-
Cubbin, parliamentary assistant to
Agricultural Minister Gardiner
was to have been guest speaker,
but was unable to be present ow-
ing to commitments in Ottawa.
The tour was planned by agri-
cultural representatives and Fed-
eration fieldmen and Huron Coun-
ty directors of the Beef Producers'
Association, of which Robert Mc-
Gregor, of Kippen, is 'chairman.
Huron Farm News
Over 80 beef producers from the
county toured beef cattle feeding
establishments in Middlesex, Kent
and Elgin Counties on Thursday,
Jan. 24, on their annual bus tour.
Farm account book distribution
has been greater than ever before,
which indicates that farmers are
becoming more and more cost-
conscious. -
The poor quality cereal grain
harvested in 1956 is indicated by
the increased numbers of inquiries
received from farmers concerned
about their 1957 spring seed re-
quirements.
