Whitechurch News
The annual meeting of Hur-
on County members of Water.,
loo Cattle Breeding Association
was held in Clinton on Tuesday
of last week with staff members
and directors reporting on the
1966 year's business.
Wilbur Shantz, W.C.B. A.
manager, reported that 1966
was one of the busiest years in
the history of the Association,
81, 035 cattle were inseminat-
ed, an increase of 1„6% over
1965. Over 18 hundred swine
services were supplied in 1966.
849,885 miles were driven by
Association personnel in the
course of their duties.
Guest speaker for the meet-
ing was W. S. Knapp, well
known Galt Holstein breeder.
He spoke on the business of
operating a farm, calling farm-
ing a profession, engaged in by
professionals. "I'm afraid if we
don't change we're going to be
left out in the cold. We're our
own boss, and often we're too
good to ourselves," he said. fie
strongly advised dairymen to
begin production testing to mea-
sure the performance of their
cows. He exploded many of
the excuses farmers use for their
failure to test cows.
"If you don't want to board
the milk inspector, then put
him up at a hotel," he said."If
you prefer DHIA or owner
sampler testing then use them.
If you think testing is too ex-
pensive, just look at the mar-
ket for cattle with R.O.P. test-
ed background. If you think
that your herd isn't good enough,
that you don't feed well enough,
then the only way you can go
is down. Management is 90%
of any success," Mr. Knapp
concluded.
Elected to represent South
Huron for another two-year
term on the W.C,B.A, board
of directors was William Alien
of Woodharn.
Among those present at the
meeting were Doug Miles, ag-
ricultural representative for
Huron; Gordon Bell, Holstein-
Friesian fieldman;RossMarshall,
national director of the Hol-
stein-Friesian Association; and
Russ Bradford, dairy branch
fieldman. Chairman was Cliff
McNeil of Goderich, W.C.B, A.
director of North Huron.
