Here a Bell technician is testing the telephone lines in your neighborhood. Carefully and quickly his hand brushes the circuits in the telephone building with au electronic "line patrol". He is hunting for weather -worn wires which may cause ' a noisy line or snap during a storm, Forewarned by this periodic testing we send a man to change the faulty line — which could be the "drop line" running from your home to the main. telephone cable. Because of this electric detective we can use expensive wire until its service life expires fully, without sacrificing material or manpower. .And that helps us to keep your telephone costs down.

I. SCOTER Breeders Meet At Kirkton Huron County Holstein •Freie- ian Breeders held ,their annual twilight meeting last Friday .eye- ning at the farm of IVlr. and Mrs. Ross Marshall,Kirkton, In the words of J. E. Terry, fieldman of the Helstein Freielan Association, it would be impossible to find a moreracfous host st or a Tamil farm with so many excellent cattle. Ross Marshall is counted a relatively new breeder in 1101-, stein circles, but he has built a wonderful reputation in the past 12 years. With a herd, now num- bering 65 head, he has made an excellent showing in the' show ring, an excellent record on R.O.P. and has exported to seve- ral countries. Adding these to- gether and atter looking over his set-up, it is easy to explain— good planning, excellent manage- ment, a lot of common sense and hard work add up to what we saw the other evening—success. Judging a three-year-old class of four animals used for type de- monstration, the women and 4 -II Club members agreed with the official judge more than the men did. In the ladies divisions with 100% score were: (1) Mrs. John Boyd, Walton; (2) Mrs. Howard Pym, Centralia; (3) Mrs, H. Hawkins, Science Hill. "4-H Club members and juniors with 100% score were; (1) Marjorie Boyd, Walton; (2) Edith Boyd, Wal- ton; (3) Paul Daynard, of St. Marys. In the men's division, P. De Groot, Blyth, had the only per- fect score of 100%. Twelve others agreed that the judge had made a mistake on two cows and re- versed his placing of .this •pair. In the words of bystanders: "There are only two men right in a showring—the judge and the chap who gets first prize." Clarence Rennie, a former Hu- ron County Agricultural Repre- sentative ,and now on' Animal Husbandry staff at. OAC, Guelph, was the guest speaker for the meeting, presided over by .County Chairman, Simon Hallahan, of Belgrave. Mr, Rennie was both entertaining and informative. He mentioned that many men bad been inquiring whether to strive for' increased butterfat or more . milk. pounds of m ik. A study of R,O,E„' records revealed that an increase of 1/10 of 1% B.F. caused an average loss of 63 lbs. of milk. .Another interesting item was the value of buying cows by the different grades—excellent, very good, good and fair, R.O.P. re- cords showed a marked •differ- ence In lbs. of milk produced on each lactation, The amount quot- ed was amazing -500 lbs. aver- age in each grade. Gerry Montgomery, H u r on County Ag. Rep., stated that a Dairy Herd Improvemnt Associa- tion had been 'formed in Huron County on May 1, 1955. He also stressed the value of 4-H Clubs in the county, and thanked the many breeders who gave inval- uable aid in conducting the dairy clubs which are included in the 30 4-H Clubs. DID YOU KNOW? The 4-H membership in Huron County is growing with leaps and bounds. In 1951, 12 clubs and 231 members; in 1955, 30 clubs and 539 members.—Gerry Mont- gomery, Huron County, Ag.
