Last year's high- est ticket seller was Lorrie - Aalders with '12 sold, runner-up Kenny Ritchie. A show of slides on buying a horse was given by Ken Taylor. What to look for and what to avoid were discusseci. Unlike hog, sheep or cattle projects, which are usually terminated • within a year or two, the horse may be kept for a number of years.. Therefore you will want to select a. horse which will grow into a valuable animal, worthy of the years of care and training you will give it. Good horses are usually produced by develop- ing properly, foals from mares and 'stallions possessing the desir- able characteristics, conforma- tion, and qualitites of the breed concerned. In, most cases the good and bad points of the horse are more noticeable in the adult animal, so if possible inspect the sire and dam before you sel- ect your foal. • WEDNESDAY, JUit • Is extend�d to Persons Who.assisted • ing the pool and, helped in preparation fir • opening of Luckni4 and District swimming p JOHN HAMILTON • TED JOHNSON DOUG CORRIN DALE 410 IMTE LYNDA -HARILTON ELEANOR.JOHNST0111 BETTY -ANNE HU • SANDRA FINLAY; MRS.

Brenda, Taylor has had the oppor- tunity to Wrk with Penny Martin of the Goderich area, and ride and work-out on her Arabian horse, Sheik Barri, the first Arabian horse to be brought into Canada. The recent disclosures of condi- tions under which horses have been purchased and shipped from Canada to France , to be slaughter. ed and used for human consump- tion, has prompted the club to have all members sign a petition and have it sent to our M.P. in Ottawa. As all this suffering endured by horses in long transit journeys to -their doom is entirely . due to Canada re -opening the horse export trade, we as individ- ual and club members feel it should be stopped.
