Thus it was organized in 1861. and was known as the Grey Drench 'Agri, cultural Society. Also In a rePert of Fall Fair, 1899, was the statement that the Grey Branch: was organized in 1S09. The first fairs. .':re held on Victoria Park, with the inside dermal:N(12a housed in the halt at. the Armstrong hotel, now. the Amsriean hotel. The 1913 Brussels. Pest's comment was that the Society was organized about 50 years ago. At the annual. meeting in 1872 the the officers and members of the Grey Branch decided it was neces, sary to purchase a piece of ground . for the Purpose of erecting a hall and forming exhibition grouuds. A committee was formed to investi- gate the possibilitcs of buying some land and the price of same. At ,a, meeting a mouth later, sub- scription lists were put into circu- lation to raise money to purchase a site. Three and three quarter acres were purchased and the deed of land is dated Sept. 19, 1874 and the price was $575.00 The next summer contractors commenced work on the new Agricultural hall, which cost 1St 0 and was in readiness for the 1875 Fall Fair. Due co the atollshi'ag of the North Riding in Huron County, a new Society was organized on Feb ,5, 1.5.115, and wes known ma: Best TTuren Agricultural Spciety, This informat- ion was taken from the Seaforth Expositor..

Each society had its own annual meeting and financial statement, but held the. Fall Show jointly, it is not known how these societies divided the proceeds from the Fair.

A attraction at this fair was big an The grounds en Which the Pair was held were small and inadequate. At the annual meeting of the Grey branch in 1891, the question of en- larging the grounds was thscussed The directors decided to buy 10 more acres from john Leckie on condition that $600 be received as gratuity from the funds of the late Caledonia Society. and Driving Park Alesociation, and that the Greg branch agree to fence the said gl'oly and hold it subject to future lease or other arrangements,. with a Driving Park Asseelatien, should such be formed.

(Continued next week) t' In the past we have owned a number of different makes of tractors, and we tried many others on our farm before deciding the air-cooled, diesel Renault was the tractor for us," says Mr. Robert M. Grimwood, R:R. 1, Thorold,'Ont, Mr, Grimwood is engaged in mixed farming, has 16 acres of grapes, and does custom baling for neighboring farmers. "Before deciding on a Renault, we gave,it a rugged on-the-farm test In ; competition against 4 other makes under the toughest, wet and hilly onditions. We found the economy, power and stamina of Renault beat fitted the needs of our farm." Mr. Grimwood reports that his Renault air-cooled diesel is also used for the tougher-than-average jobs on his father-in-law's adjacent farm. c. Mr. Grimwood sums it up this way—"Not only is our Renault economical 1 it's as handy as a ny small tractor, and it's got the big tractor power too." I BEFORE YOU BUY...TEST-DRIVE A RENAULT YoU too can cash-in on Renault tractor economy and performance this year! Before you buy your next tractor, make sure you see us—your Renault Tractor Dealer.
