RENNIE ASKS ENCOURAGEMENT OF JUNIOR WORK Thedwindling fertility of Ontario's soil Is the biggest worry on ;,the doorstep of beef cattle porducers, said Prof. R. G. Knox, speaking at Clinton, at the annual meeting of the Perth - Huron, Shorthorn Club. Beef animals are not getting the food from en acre of pasture that they were getting from the same land at the end of the nineteenth century, said the speaker, who is heaof the ani- mal husbandry department at Onttario Agricultural College, J. C. Rennie, Clinton, assistant agricultural representative for Huron, urged Shorthorn Club members to encourage junior farm work by making calves available to boys' calf club members, at prices the boys can afford. Three junior clubs in Huron, of which one was a mixed dairy -beef club, had a total of 30 beef calves, of which 20 were Short- horns, Mr. Rennie reported. Roy Nethercott, St. Marys, was elected president of the Club for 1949, succeeding W. A. Culbert, Dungannon, Dr. M. W. Staple- ton, Dublin, was elected 1st vice- president; Arnold Robinson, St. Marys, was named 2nd vice- president. The secretaryship, which also alternates between Perth and Huron, goes for 1949 to Ralph White;Stratford, agri- cultural representative for Perth. Huron directors for 1949 are: Howard Armstrong, Seaforth; James Scott, Seaforth; Roy Strong, Gerrie; .Andrew Gaunt, Lucknow; R. M. Peck, Kippen; Wilbur Turnbull, Brussels, GIRLS' SPORTS - Much to our pleasure, new backboards, badly needed, have been put up in. the gym at last. These backboards are different from the former ones in that the baskets have leather netting which will last longer than the original cord netting, No doubt these new baskets will increase our .scoring - at least we certainly hope so. -JEAN MCKINLEY BOYS' SPORTS- The Clinton Senior and Junior basketball teams have been grouped with the following WOSSA ,teams: Wingham, Gode- rich, St Marys, Exeter, Mitchell; Seaforth and Clinton. Due to distance, this group has been divided into two smaller groups with Wingham, Goderich,, Sea - forth and Clinton forming one league , and the remaining three teams' snaking up the other.
