A real dream
Lower prices in 1854
By ADRIAN VOS
The Washington County
Historical Society (AR): "In
1854 Wm Thomas opened a beef
market here, selling good steak
at 3 cents and roasts at 2 1 2 and
The 47th annual Huron plowing
match was declared "the best
match we have had, with the best
turnout and better than average
plowing". according to veteran
official Gordon McGavin of
Seaforth.
The match was held on the 200.-
acre farm of Huron County
warden Bill Elston, on the second
Concession of Morris Township.
More than 70 contestants
competed to see who could plow
the straightest, neatest furrow
while about 400 spectators
watched them and the other
events of horse shoe pitching, log
cutting, and making cedar
shingles.
Eighteen-year old Anne
Stewart of RR 5, Seaforth, won
the Queen of the Furrow class
over three other contestants with
her well-turned furrows. She
seems to be following the family
tradition as her older sister Amy
(Stewart) Becarrio of Welland
won the Huron crown in 1964, 1905
and 1966 and went on to win the
crown at the International
Plowing Match held at Seaforth
in 1966. Another older sister
Bonnie (Stewart) Fortune of
Seaforth won the Huron crown in
1967.

he made plenty of money; but
now in 1882 our butchers com-
plain that they cannot make any
at 121 2 cents per pound."
Jack Rice in the St. Louis
Dispatch about a proposed 1.
million hog operation (that didn't
go through 1". 1,000,000 hogs
wouldn't take up more room than
1,000,000 people, and the hogs
wouldn't come with cars and a
television set blaring at full
volume. It always is a pleasure
to talk with a man who has
proper respect for a hog."
It is often thought that the
large packers slaughter most of
the pigs, but a report from USDA
shows that, at least in the USA
this is not so, During the 1920's
the four largest US packers kill-
ed about forty percent of the
hogs. During the sixties it
declined to between 30 and 35
percent.
In current years it declined
more and is now between 31 and
. The report doesn't say
however what they consider a
big packer. There must surely be
more than four in the United
States.
I wonder what the French Con-
sumers Association has to say
about the beef that was dumped
in Le Havre harbour by irate
French farmers. If it was
anything like Plumtre and
Brechin it must be a dilly. Talk
about militant farmers, Europe
has them.
Beside the dumping of im-
ported Argentine beef, they
stuck pigs on lamp posts,
sprayed manure on government
buildings, hijacked loads of
livestock and blocked roads and
airfields with trucks and trac-
tors. It ',worked though, for the
European Community banned all
imports of beef fpr three months,
supplied the armed -Threes with '
beef and gave it to pensioners on
fixed incomes at low, low prices.
I hope that our dairy
producers, whose prices are set
by the government as in Europe,
don't have to take such drastic
steps to receive a fair price for
their product.
In consumer reports are some
interesting facts about investors
who put their money in the cattle
business. If they lose money
there. they recover it taxwise as
investment losses.
The directors, management and staff at Ex-
eter District Co-Op extend their sincere thanks to all
those who in any way helped to make their grand
opening celebrations so successful.
The compliments about the expanded facilities
and stock were much appreciated and we look
forward to serving both town and country residents
from our modern facilities.
If you didn't have an opportunity to drop in
during our grand opening celebrations, please feel
free at any time to come in and browse around.
