The shield was won in the name of Thos. Hayden& Son but the herd has been operated solely by George Hayden since the death of his father in 1961. The presenta- tion was made on behalf of the Association by the Hon. William. A, Stewart, Minister of Agri- culture for Ontario. The story of Hayden's 13an- ella herd consists almost entire-, ly of the history of a family of cattle tracing to one foundation cow, Moorefield Perfection Ella. Ella was purchased as a four -months -old calf at the dis- persal sale of A. W. Kopas in DOES SHUR•GAIN TAKE THE EXTRA TROUBLE TO MAKE SELECTED -GRANULATED FERTILIZER Because it's more effective. SHUR-GAIN Fertilizer is granulated after the ingredients have been mixed and is not just a blend of granular materials. As a result each granule contains all three plant food elements in the right proportions. Ordinary granular and blended fertilizers simply consist of a mixture of ingredients, either in powder form or granules. Although it's easier to make fertilizer that way it cannot be as effective in use due to the separation of ingredients of different size and weight. As every granule contains all the guaranteed plant food elements, SHUR-GAIN Selected -Granulated Fertilizer remains completely bal- anced throughout storing, shipping and spreading—resulting in balanced feeding of plants from every granule; consistent, more even application of the best possible fertilizer to give you maximum yields and top returns from your fertilizer dollar. As always it pays to get the finest fertilizer for your good earth — SHUR-GAIN Selected -Granulated. fertilizer Be sure to discuss your spring Fertilizer program with your local SHUR-GAIN Fertilizer dealer 1 Moorefield, Ella was herself classified "Very Good" as a two-year-old, is now a Seven Star brood cow and in her life- time has produced over 180, - 000 lbs. of milk, having in 365 days at 24, 185 lbs. •of 3, - 65% milk, Several bulls from the Ella family have been used in the Banella herd and the family has been very closely bred, without any apparent loss of size or vigour, All but one of the "Very Good" bulls and all the "Excellent" and "Very Good" cows that qualified the Banella herd for Master Breeder standing are from the Ella fam- ily. It is interesting to note that the first prize junior heifer calf in the 1964 Huron County Black and White Day, s h o w n by George Hayden, has her 30 nearest ancestors classified as either "Excellent" or "Very Good" and she traces three times directly to Ella. The Banella herd stood first in Huron County for production in 1963-64 in the under 20 head division. Premier Exhibi- tor awards at the County Black and White Day were won in 1959, 1962 and 1963 and Premier Breeder awards in 1959 and 1963. The herd has been runner-up several other times. Throughout the develop- ment of the herd, George has been an active partner. He now has three sons, the eldest of whom, Glen, is also showing an active interest in the herd and is at the stage of helping his father at the shows. Credit Union Holds Annual BELGRAVE-Earle Reed, gen- eral manager of Rochdale Credit Union of Woodstock, was guest speaker at the annual meeting of Belgrave Credit Union, held in the club rooms of the Com- munity Centre. The theme of his address was "Are We Pre- pared to Witness for the Credit Union?" He told of the begin- ning of Credit Union 116 years ago, in the year 1849, by a German Protestant, the mayor of a town in Germany. Credit unions were brought to Canada in 1900 by a French Catholic and spread through the U.S.A. in the next 25 years by an Am- erican Jew. Credit Unions are international. The challenge to members is to build and spread Credit Union throughout the world, but this can only be done if members believe in the Credit Union themselves. President Ted Fear reported that the board of directors had recommended a 3110 dividend be paid, a slight increase over previous years. George Michie, treasurer -manager reported that the Credit Union had exceeded the $50,000.00 mark the first of the year, and gained another $3,900.00 since then. Member ship has increased by 19, mak- ing a total membership of 260. The new fieldman for this district for Cuna Mutual, Hec- tor Barb, spoke briefly. Mr. Barb is replacing Ernie Long. Door prizes were won by Al- bert Bieman, Charles Coultes, J. R. Raylor. New directors elected for three years are John Hildebrand, Gilbert Beecroft and Oscar Du- charme. The other directors are Ted Fear, John Nixon, Peter de Groot and Calvin Robinson. Re-elected to the credit committee for three years was Martin Grasby and the other members of that committee are Charles Coultes and Ken Bar- bour, Re-elected to tite supervis- ory committee for three years was Lorne Campbell, the other members being Lewis Stonc- house and Stewart Procter.
