By this time I expect that
most of you will have read that
the Wheat Vote' has been post-
poned until January. This no
doubt is disappointing to many
but after the list of eligible
Voters . was published some
things had to be corrected.
• This list was made up by the
government -appointed marketing
board from the lists requested
from the buyers of wheat stating
the farmers from whom they
had purchased wheat.
One min's name • appeared
three times; He had sold wheat
at' three different mills and had
sent it to the mill with different
truckers. His name appeared as
R. W. ... as R. ... as Dick
..• Thus if he votes "yes" .to
to the plan there, will still be
two votes against it, simply be-
cause he doesn't vete the other
times. If he votes for each time
his name is on the list he will
probably end' up in jail.
The 'wheat growers could hard-
ly expect to win a vote on this
basis. To get this straightened
out is was necessary to have'
time to revise these lists, .
Those eligible to vote are those
farmers who have sold wheat in
1956- or 1957 or have town wheat
in 1957 for Sale in 1958 or have
wheat stored for future sale.
Anyone who can fulfil these
requirements cab come to the
poll on voting. day and register
and vote whether his name is on
the list or not,
To Scrutinize
Ofers List
Directors M Huron Federation
of Agriculture, meeting in Clin-
ton Monday night, organized to
get out the vote for the wheat
marketing scheme, which will
be • submitted for approval to
producers sometime early in the
new year.
The vote, originally scheduled
for December 9, has been post-
poned.
Although the Federation has
no official capacity in conduct-
ing the vote, directors agreed to
go over the voters' lists in each
township in an attempt to cor-
rect present lists which are not
satisfactory.
Directors will check to elimi-
nate duplication of names and to
add, producers whose names are
not 'en the list.
The vote has been postponed,
it has been unofficially an-
nounced, because many errors
have :been found in the' voters'
lists 'which Were made up of
producers who sold wheat this
past 'year. It was discovered
that a number of producers are
on the list two and three times
because they sold wheat to vari-
ous mills. •

the radio broadcast on National

conclusion that the Government
should do everything to raise the
farmers' price on all farm prod-
ucts.
Other findings were that the
farmer should get 60 percent of
the consumer's dollar; 'there
should be no 'sudden fluctuating
markets; there should be a high-
er level of support prices, more
marketing boards and farm cred-
it.

What may become a new trend
in beef cattfr, judging at the
Royal Winter Fair threw Iluron
county competitors in the Queen's
Guineas cloys for A loss Thurs-
day.
A new judge picked leaner,
cleaner -cut steers for top hon-
ors and the fatter Huron ,calves
—some rated as favorites by
former standards—were left out
in the cold.
This year's winner, A pure
white Shorthorn calf shown by
Marion Anderson, 20, of Glen
Cross, weighed only 814 com-
pared to 1010 pounds on. last
Year's champion, the Angus own-
ed by Don Pullen, R.R. 1 Gran
ton.
Probably the most disappoint-
ed youth over the change was
Gerald Wallis, another Granton
district youth, whose Angus won
lithe Huron championship earlier
this fall. After being told by
'many observers that his 1,000 -
pound plus calf should win the
honors, he placed no better than
in the first group of his breed.
He didn't even reach the top
ten in the competition among
blacks.
Another Angus owned by Al-
lan Rundle, R.R. 3 Exeter,
which won the county reserve
championship, placed in the sec-
ond group.
None of the 34 Huron calves
in the Guineas placed in the top
10 of its breed.
Gordon Bennett, agricultural
extension official and former ag
rep for Huron who emceed the
show, said: "The trend towards
cleaner -cut cattle has. been evi-
dent throughout the Royal Win-
ter Fair this year. It may be
here to stay."
The new judge was Fred Ma-
jor, London, • .who succeeded
Charlie Yule, Calgary, the Guin-
eas picker for the past 10 years.
As soon as Major started sel
lecting the lighter cattle, Huron
Ag Reps Doug Miles and Art
Bolton started to groan, "We
won't get anywhere this ,year,
predicted Miles. "All our steers
are heavy."
Despite their disappointment,
Huron competitors were the first
to congratulate Marion Ander-
son, the Dufferin 'county girl
who von. Led by Murray Gaunt,
Lucknow, a former Guineas'
winner, and Tom Easton, H.R.
3 Exeter, a group of Huron boys
rushed into 'the ring to hoist her
on their shoulders when the de-
cision was made. Included in the
well-wishers were Gerald Wallis,
Lorne Ballantyne, H.R. 3 Exe-
ter, and Ray Cann, also of R.R.
3 Exeter.
Here's how the Guineas' com-
petitors from this _area fared:
