That’s ’the price bid for Queen’s Guinea steer own ed 'by Murray Gaunt, 21-year-old Lucknow youth. We have long thought 'that the Queen’s Guinea class is an. out moded, nonsensical idea for epT4 minating a 4-H project. There is nothing instructive about the idea for a club member other than the experience of seeing “What lies beyond the (hill”. Cer tainly it is good for a boy or girl to .go down to the “Royal" for a few days and. see the sights of the 'big city. « All the 'ballyhoo that they will see the cream of Canada’s live stock is so much hogwash! They don’t see the true cream. They see some “Cinderallaisfr’. Put most of these -pampered dolls in work ing clothes and you might not give a dollar a carload, Year after year we hear talk, about the “over-finished” market classes at our fairs, and still we encourage, and yes promote, this most abominable ■ of all sinsr There have been cases of inedible carcasses from the declared Grand Champion and Guineas steers at 'the (Royal, (at least, so says the .grapevine.) The true test of a market beef is the carcass .on the hook. Here, as proof was found tin the cooler ■display at the Royal, what may. appear to be an ideal individual by breed standards and eye ap peal, very, very often is ’placed down and down and down on the score card. Why? — Over-finish ed, soft, etc., etc. Cooking re search 'has 'Shown what type of meat makes the best roast, and in our mind that is what is wrong with our 4-H Beef Program. ‘The powers that be’, are afraid they will look foolish if they per mitted all the 4-H calves to be slaughtered and graded. The "Royal” executive don’t wish this to happen. They would lose some -a of the glamour from their extrav aganza. Who -really makes this executive — big-time breeders, professional exhibitors and others whose -business ties in with the big show. ’ The big trouble is that we per mit the same mistakes to be made at the grass root levels. We are ell human and alive. Even being ■alive is gambling for the jack pot. We want the best. for our children. The best is none too •good. At the present moment the 4-H program is one of the best things we know for our farm families, but — are -we aware- of ■the compass reading -on the bin nacle. The >Ag. (Reps. are wheels men of the ship, doing anvexcel- lent job to the'best of their abil ity. It’s time for the navigator to check his sights and perhaps ■lay down a new course oh the •chart «for the safety of the ship and crew before disaster strikes, Let’s not be confused by the glamour. -We should not be try ing- to select the best calf and declare a champion but .rather •we should be trying to select the Champion 4-H Beef Club member of Ontario and at the same time •be teaching him how to gain knowledge as to make a respect able living in the field of his choice. All the other 4-H clubs do so, why not the Beef Clubs?
