The Goderich Signal-Star, 1957-11-21, Page 4,DEANS BIGGEST GAMBLE THE, GODERIOH SIGNAL -STAR R uron Swings To Dairy Cattle • • Due To Dwindling Beef Profits Decreasing profits on beef cattle kik° tared many Huron County fitters to place more emphasis an dairy cattle, said Agricultural ewe u, taiive D. H. Miles in his teport to Maroon County Council meeting at Goderich. Mr: Miles said that acres pre- viously in beans may be switched sugar beets. since the price of mar beets has been more favor- able this year. f luring the past year, many cthanges have been noticed in the lestock on Huron County said Mr. Miles. "Previously herds oit beef cattle had been seen on the pasture fields where "dairy cattle now pred,b.minate. Needless to say, our beef cattle people;; have not enjoyed the fair portion of farm income. "Those people that have switch- ed to dairy have,'at 'least enjoyed a regular monthly income from the milk although the dairy enter- prise' does make the ties of farm- ing nwre rigid. Huron County in general has enjoyed very good crops, -with (probably the beans as the biggest gamble. Most farmers will go into the winter months with adequate supplies of roughage for most oftheir livestock. Farm Management "The most fruitful part of our program still is with the 4-H Club boys and girls and the .,Junior Farmers. Farm business have be- come two important words in the county and most of our planning is centred around the theme of trying to improve the net income of the farm. 'Several farm manage- ment courses have been conducted within the county and it is hoped that in the coming year more will be conducted. A great number of farmers are snaking use of the facilities available in discussing their farm program. "A new term in regards to beef cattle has come to the farmers this year and that is `performance test- ing' and it would appear 'that some work and 'guidance may Have to be given to assist the beef producers in some kind of penf'orrnance test- ing program." Mr. Miles noted the appointment of Miss Shirley Patterson as a full- time home economist in Huron County "but, due to unforeseen DAIRY FARMERS OF CANADA 409 Huron Street, Toronto Free!

No one was in sight but the ,garage was moving along over the ground like a ghost. Later, she ,learned the answer. John • Spain had bought it and drove a truck inside 'off it.
