Another year it would seem wise to make early plans for the arena dis- play to ensure proper time for neces- sary planning. After all, the display helps the fair, and a Seaforth Fair, which each year increases in size and serves a greater area, is of increas- ing benefit to a greater Seaforth. There Is Lots Of Rain When rain fell about two weeks ago there was general agreement among the farming community that it was a pretty good idea. The mois- ture was needed to make plowing easier, and anyway there had not been any rain to speak of for some time. But as the rain continued to fall day after day it became apparent there could be too much of a good thing. Certainly the ground work- ed more easily, but the trouble was the weather frequently was too wet to plow. Beans that were pulled were. being washed into the mud. Fields were too wet for machinery to get on with the work, even if_the skies were clear. For those with beans pulled, but still in the field, the continuing wet weather has made much work. It has been necessary to turn them, and then turn them again, in efforts to keep them from discoloring and otherwise deteriorating. While the present rush of wet weather is discouraging, on the whole it has been a pretty fine fall. If we get a few weeks of dry warm weath- er in the near future, there won't be much to complain about. The officers and directors of the Seaforth Agricultural Society de- } serve congratulations on what ap- 'pears to have been the most success- ful fall fair among the more than a hundred which have been sponsored by the society. Contributing in no small measure to the successful day was the fact that in a week which was unusually wet Seaforth's Fair Day on Friday was warm and clear. This, coupled with the reputation for outstanding dis- plays of livestock which Seaforth Pair has built up through the years, resulted in a large attendance. The crowd was not disappointed. In every department exhibits were greater than in previous years. In cattle, particularly, and in grain, the number and quantity of the exhibits was comparable to most, and greater than many regional shows. To a com- munity, denied by the march of pro- gress the presence of horses, the sight of six four -horse teams on the track, was something to be remem- bered. -' Inside exhibits this year,. too, drew the praise of judges, both with re- spect to variety and numbers. The selection of queens, typifying out- standing characteristics in indoor sections, added to the interest. If there was a weakness, it was in the extent to which Seaforth merch- ants and manufacturers participated in the arena display. , Certainly, if the several thousand visitors to Sea - forth on. Fair Day formed their im- pression of the size of the town by the number of merchants represent- ed in the arena display, they can be excused if they fail to make Seaforth Big Thrill For Young. VI A 10 -pound sturgeon was caught by young Larry McDonald, soo.f Mr. and Mrs. Lorne McDonald,`' tf Wingham, in Lake Tgmiskamu , recently. Larry, who made the big catch, landed the fish with the help of his father after a 20 -minute struggle. - Wingham Advance- Times.

Paving Progressing The good news comes to us of the laying of the blacktop dressing of Highway 84, St. Joseph to' Hen- sall. They started last week, but with the much rains slow progress was being made. However, this week seems better and by the time this issue is going out the road from Zurich to St. Joseph will have a standard paved roadbed, some- thing we have been looking for- ward to for a long time. The grad- ing and filling to Hensall is also about ready for the blacktop.- Zurich lacktop-Zurich Herald. • Activities At'f harlaor The Vandoe, one of' afleet of eix boats . and barges that ll�ve',;�eer laid up at Godericla barber becauee of the slow grain Market, cleared for the Lakehead Monday evening. The departure of this grain car- rier, here since August 21, is not significant of any change in the grain movement picture which re- trains quiet. The Vandoc will go to the Lakehead for a load of bar- ley destined for Milwaukee. Two boats and three barges remain at the harbor now. The Norman B. McPherson arrived here on Wed- nesday with grain from the Lake- head. The Bricoldoc came in on Sunday, the Hudson on Saturday, and the Brown Beaver on Thurs- day of last week. The tug, Ian Mac, will be leaving Goderich this week -end for Amherstburg where it will, be engaged until the tie-up of navigation. It will be used in work in connection with making a new channel near where the De- troit River empties into Lake Erie, part of the preparation for the new St. Lawrence Seaway route.-Gode- rich Signal -Star. To Iee OHA Junior 'B' The lid's off! Goderich Booster Club announced that it is taking immediate action to organize a Junior "B" hockey team to repre- sent this town in a proposed six - team OHA loop. The announcement came following a Booster Club ex- ecutive meeting in the Town Hall. If local citizens co-operate as is hoped, club members visualize a winter of fast, exciting hockey - the kind that draws goad crowds again and again. Club president Walter Rathburn and Jack Evans are already out hunting for play- ers. .They state that they will de- pend on members of last season's Ontario champion Midget "B",God- efich Sailors to form the nucleus of the new Junior "B" team. But they expect to bolster the squad with junior -calibre players from such centres as Kincardine, Clin- ton and Wingham.-Goderich Sig- nal -Star.

The. organization of groups and ' the gathering of facts will be conduct- ed by local people connected with rural organizations and Farm For- ums in co-operation with a nation- al committee representative of the sponsors. The telecast will precede the radio broadcast of the same topic and go on the air at 10 p.m. on Thursday evening during January and March. Committee members named to lay the groundwork for the experi- ment are: Mrs. Vera Greig, Dr. Norman High, Rev. Doug Brydo i, James Powers, Gordon Scott and Lindsay Awrey. To Provide Pilot Facilities On January 9, 1958, a television "experiment" will have its begin- ning in .this country over CKNX television station, Channel 8, when a National Farm Forum produc- tion on farrn restriction controls will be beamed to viewers in this district. The decision and permis- sion to make this TV "first" was reached at a meeting held in the Wingham Town Hall on Thursday afternoon, when members of the Ontario Farm Forum executive and a committee under Donald Munro, of Ottawa, chairman of the On- tario Farm Forum Council, dis- cussed ways and means of telecast- ing the program over a six -weeks' trial period. CKNX will be the pioneer station and the only sta- tion carrying the program in Can- ada, A research committee was set up at Thursday's meeting and it will be this group's task to mea- sure public reaction to the new television farm feature to be pre- sented over the local station for the first time on January 9. That program, following similar lines to the CBC trans -Canada network ra- dio presentation broadcast on Jae. 6, will deal with present day pro- duction, pricing and selling prob- lems as they affect the farmer.- Wingham Advance -Times. From The Huron Expositor September 30, 1932 W. H. Golding, Seaforth, is the Liberal candidate in the South Huron by-election, made necessary by the sudden death last June of Thomas McMillan. Mr. Qolding is being opposed by Louis H. Rader, Conservative candidate. An extraordinary oddity in the shape of an apple was brought in- to The Expositor office last week 1y Miss Janet Doig, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. L. Doig of Tuck- ersmith, near Kippen. The apple had two distinct eyes about two inches apart at the bottom, while on the top there were two distinct stems, rather close together, which merged into one stem about an incl, long. The body of the apple was one solid piece, but looked very much as if a small apple and a larger one had each had a slice cut off the side and had then been glued together. It was a rare od- dity indeed, but a well -colored and sound two -in -one apple. Mr. C. P. Sills left Saturday for Sault Ste. Marie, to attend the Legion convention as a delegate from the Seaforth Post. Miss Margaret McKellar, Miss Muriel Beattie, Miss Elizabeth Mc- Lean and Messrs. A. R. Burrows, Francis Devereaux and K. I. Mc- Lean left last week to attend West- ern University, London. From Huron, from Perth, from Bruce, from Middlesex, from all Western Ontario, people came to Seaforth to hear Rt. Hon. W. L. Mackenzie King speak here in the interests of W. H. Golding, Liberal candidate. It Was conservatively estimated that a gathering of 3,000 people crowded the Palace Rink. The local Canadian National Tele- graph manager, Mr M. McKellar, sent out from his office here Wed- nesday night and Thursday morn- ing some 15,000 words, dealing with the King meeting here Wednesday night; 5,600 went to the London Free Press, 4,000 to the Canadian Press Association, 4,000 to the To- ronto Daily Star and 1,400 to the London Advertiser, making these the biggest messages ever sent from Seaforth office. Mr. McKel- lar was assisted by a number of outside operators. YEARS ALONE Interesting items gleaned from The Huron Expositor of 25, 50 and 75 years ago.

Foods $ "National Farm Policy" has been selected as the topic to open the 18th season of National Farm Radio Forum on November 4, an- nounced the secretary, Floyd Gries- bach. "With a new Federal Gov- ernment, the forum opinions on this topic will take on a new sig- nificance. Farm organizations will also be concerned with the conclu- sions reached." Should farm machinery be more versatile? is the type of question to be asked when the topic, "A New Look in Farm Machinery," comes up for discussion later ,by some 15,000 rural people meeting in neighborhoodgroups across the country each Monday evening. A special feature, "Modern Market- ing," during January will be a ser- ies of three discussions dealing with present-day production, pric- ing and selling problems. , These will be dealt with under the head- ings of "Production Restrictions," "Price and Income Supports" and "Producer Marketing." Two dates have been left open for a discus- sion of current issues in the farm field. Other topics during the win= ter are "Farm Credit," "Import Controls -Are They Necessary," "Let's Make It Legal", "The Low Income Farmer" and "Canada's Role in World Affairs." Broadcasts will be carried over the Trans -Canada network of the C.B.C. from 8:30-9:00 p.m. in all provinces (except Newfoundland), every Monday night from Novem- ber through March. Newfoundland broadcasts will be heard from 9:00 to 9:30 p.m. Govenlock's. room. The salary is $315 per annum. We understand that Mr. James Patterson, Brucefield, was recent- ly offered $8,000 for his fine farm on the London Road, but he want- ed $500 more. This the purchaser agreed to give him if he would leave his working team on the farm, but Mr. Patterson refused, and so negotiations were off. A petition is being circulated and largely signed asking the Govern- ment that inasmuch as the CPR in Walton is now complete, they be given the contract of carrying His Majesty's mails. Mr. John O'Keefe has had his residence on Goderich St. East improved by a nice coat of paint and other alterations. Mr. Ben Gibson, who recently sold his farm to Mr. C. Walker, has purchased a house and lot in Ethel for $900 and will retire from farming this fall. e io yA 11, Huron Farm News nth coir any variety, Judy.

A. Sharp for the sum of $260, Mr. John Lattimer has returned from Winnipeg and has accepted his old situation as manager of the grocery department of the estab- lishment of Duncan & Duncan. -We are glad to welcome Mr. Lattimer as a permanent citizen once more. Mr. Thomas Nott has sold his farm on the 8th concession of Hul- lett to Mr. Wm. Dunlop, for the sum of $6,500. The farm contains 100 acres, is well situated, and is one of the most desirable in the township. What threatened to be a serious accident and yet what happened without any harm being done oc- curred on the farm of Mr. George� Routly, 12th concession, Hullett; last F,iday. At the close of thresh- ing on his place, his son hitched the horses to the separator to draw it out of the barn when the dust frightened the horses and they ran away. The boy held onto the lines until the horses and separator went through a seven -rail fence, when he let go, the horses coming to a stop in the orchard, without hav- ing broken a single thing. Mr. Henry Beam, Seaforth, has purchased an ashery in Brussels and intends carrying on business in that town. On Thursday night of last week some evil disposed person entered the butcher shop of Mr. George Ewing and broke open his safe. The outer door of the safe had been left unlocked, but inside was a drawer in which Mr. Ewing kept his private papers and other valu- able documents. This drawer was forced open and its contents scat- tered over the floor. Fortunately, the money had been all taken from the safe that evening before leav- ing the shop and consequently the burglars obtained. no bdoty to re- compense them for their trouble. On Friday evening Some persons entered the store of 1Vlr. Cardno and stole therefrom goods to the value of about $20.
