He owned a pasture, commons of about & acres at the eastern en­ trance to the town, where the Sproul, Wagner, Robinson., homes are now situated.. It was there that The Games . were held for the first two years in 1875. and 1876, and then were moved to the park north of Al^x Hamil­ ton’s residence.

Deductions ..will be made on all cattleN marketed with the exception of calves. Processors will also make a substantial, grant to the project. . -Mr, B.'B^ Warnika, past presi- dent of the Ontario Beef CattleT Association, outlined conditions in the~-U7Sr"as~he saw them in a recent trip. In the corn belt^he stated, 30 percent fewer cattle were on feed at the .beginning of the year. This was partly due to discouraging profits during the past few: years and the govern­ ment support price for corn. Many farmers felt it better to sell the corn rather than risk . livestock feeding. The drought areas in Western U.S. were poL improving and breeding stock on many . ranches is hot being re~ placed. With a growing popula­ tion in the U.S. and Canada he felt cattle business looked bright­ er. Mr. Earl Manning of the In­ dustrial Meat Packers, pointed out the demands of the consumer today is for non-fat meat pro­ ducts. Unfortunately fat on'* an apimal is necessary because it provides the flavor. Better mer­ chandising of, meats in the retail trade has greatly increased sales and higher pork prices influence ed the consumer to buy beef. Less* than 20 percent of a steer is com­ posed of steaks and roasts but the food value of the meat is relatively the same ho matter which portion of the animal it is^cutnoffr^onsumptmn“~ol”beef” in Canada has increased recently from 52 lbs. per person per year to 70 lbs. j • Mr; George Gear, Ag. Rep. ex­ pressed his solution to lower costs of production of beef was in better -pastures and hay. With better hay farmers can avoid the use of expensive grain feeding in winter; with no hay, however, grain will be required. He re­ commended branding of cattle bet- fore they go on grass and the brand should be registered with the- Livestock Commissioner, Mr. Watson. To brand without reg­ istering, is illegal. • - .
