LARGE STEER SOLD
BY ASHFIELD
Elliott Sandy, of Ashfield, has
sold his big steer—and ° big is a
conservative description for the
three-year-old animal tipped the
scale at well over a ton. It
weighed 2,170 pounds when ship-
ped
hipped and lost 40 pounds by the
time it was purchased by Canada
Packers at the Stock Yards in
Toronto.
Mr. Sandy bought this Holstein
steer from Glen Walden. It
weighed -125 pounds at birth, Ind
in the intervening 37 months has
consumed a pile of fodder to keep
putting on the beef and Was well
finished when- it Went to market.
It stood about 5 feet, 8 inches, and
had a girth behind the shoulders
of 95 inches.
The animal was quite an attrac-
tion and many viewed it at the
Sandy, farm where it had, become
somewhat 'of a "pet." -

Pretty Peggy Brooks gets some help in' tuning a fiddle from two who
are obviously happy and eager for the old-time fiddlers' contest to
roll around. Miss Brooks, popular CBC -TV and radio songstress,
doesn't plan to enter the fifth annual Canadian championship fiddlers'
contest, but sl{e will make a personal appearance it the -contest in
Shelburne, Ont., on Saturday, August 6. Don Fairbairn (right) editor.
of CRC's "Neighborly News" program, will again be master of cere-
monies of the Saturday might festivities when the contest finale is
broadcast over the Trans -Canada network. Reid Forsee (left), CBC,
producer, will be in charge of the broadcast. 1 Both Don Fairbairn and

LAKE HURON LEVEL
'INCREASE IS SHOWN
OTTAWA, July 8—Water levels
during June on Lake Huron at
Goderich were 581.43 feet, or • one
inch higher than in May; one
quarter inch lower than in June
1954; 261, inches lower than the
highest June since 1860; 42y. inch-
es higher than the lowest ' June;
51y, inches higher than, the average,
the . Canadian hydrographic ser
vice has reported.
Before a new telescope -type
stretcher, made of nylon and
aluminum, was adopted by the
Canadian Armed Forces, it got
the works. They -jumped on it,
dropped rocks on it, tossed it
out of aircraft and army lorries,
froze it in ice, buried it in mud
and sand. They finally gave up
—and placed the order.
Its lightness and compactness
makes this rugged stretcher a
natural for everything from
northern air -rescue work to the
needs of hospital, police, Civil
Defence and other authorities
Another job for Canada's
aluminum and themen who
work wonders with it.

Clayton Scheifefe with his herd of Scotch Shorthorns
•
Clayton Scheifele of R.R.. No. 2, Wayterloo, has had a purebred herd of scotch shorthorns for 15
years, but he believes that he has seen '-bigger improvement in quality over the last five years.
"The quality showed noticeable improvement since I began breeding artificially five years
ago," he said. "The Waterloo artificial insemination unit, which had been handling semen for dairy
breeds only, up to 1then, started supplying the beef men."
By improvement of quality he means that the progeny of his artificially -bred cows make larger
and ,quickergains than he used to get with natural breeding.
He has sent some steers from his cows to the beef testing station at Arkell.
-One from the Unit bull, Klaymor Overseer, went on test at 61,E months of age at 547 pounds.
At 731/ months of age at slaughter, it weighed -981 pounds. 11 gained 2.21 pounds a day.
Another steer sired by Braedoon Lancer„ went on test at 515 pounds at 6% months. When it went
to the slaughter house at 13% months it weighed 909—or a gain of 2.01 pounds a day,
"I never used to get gains like this from my own bulls," said Mr. Scheifele. "Of course, an
individual farmer cannot afford to buy a $2000.00 bull like the unit can on a co-operative basis."
The per -day rate of gain on the two calves tested was "Exceptional." The average rate at the
station for all calves tested is under two pounds a day. -
The above picture and story appeared recently on the farm page of the Kitchener -Waterloo.
