USE" FACILITIES . He was assisted -by K. S. Murphy,
Guelph, district fieldman for the
SEED CLEANING.
Advantages accruing to fann-
ers in, the use of seed cleaning
plants were enumerated a t a
regional conference of operators
of seed cleaning plants located
in Huron, Perth and Bruce
Counties and conducted by the
Crops, Seeds and Weeds Branch,
Ontario Department' of Agricul-
ture, here and at Londesboro Fri-
day '.last.
R. Gordon Bennett, Clinton,
agricultural representative for
Huron County, acted as chairman
and outlined the objects of the
conference.
R. E. White, Stratford, agri-
cultural representative for Perth
County,also spoke briefly.
The conference was under the
direction of John D. MacLeod,
Dunvegan, formerly director ,of
the Crops, Seeds and Weeds
Branch, and presently* acting as
Crops, Seeds and Weeds Branch.
"The seed cleaner's chief aim
should be to provide a. full and
competent service so that ell
farmers within range of his busi-
ness wil want to avail themselves
of the service provided," Mr: Mac-
Leod declared.
"The chief aim of ;these reg-
ional conferences is to keep seed
cleaners up to date in new de-
velopments in the operation of
their plants, and also to pick up
new 'suggestions from these op-
erators on how these plants may
be operated more efficiently,"
the speaker declared.
Mr. MacLeod pointed out that
seed cleaners should be especially
careful • in the labelling of the
seed ,brought to their plants, both
fromthe standpoint of keeping
each farmer's seed separate, and
also from that of labelling each
'farmer's seed as to clean seed,
feed, screenings and weed seeds.
That's the amount of the average
cheque for some 2,250,000 Canadians, when
the 1943-44 Refundable Savings are returned
this month. Some will get less. Some will get
more. But, if you have a refund coming to
you, it will be money you have done without
money you've already saved ... the easiest
kind of money to keep on saving.
It feels good to have a nest -egg in reserve.
It means a ready fund you can draw on ... in
case of emergency or opportunity.
Why not put your refund cheque away in
a savings account at the 13 of M?

Mr. MacLeod also dealt at.
some length with new develop
meats in weed treating, and
stated that information ;would be'
given to all seed cleaners just.
as soon as it was developed.
However, he stressed that all seed
should be 'treated :regardless of
materiel aid methods used in' the
process, rather than not have it
done at all. Seed cleaners should
urge the farmers to db that, he
said. .
K. S. Murphy discussed the re-
sults of various seed drill sur-
veys conducted throughout the
Province during the, past year.
He pointed out the fact that
where grains _ had been cleaned
in an up-to-date seed cleaning.
plant, the quality of seed was
very much higher than when a
farmer had • cleaned it in his own
mill. He emphasized, however,
that there still was room for im-
provement, even in some of the
best power -operated plants,
The morning session consisted
of a discussion regarding the
mechanics of . a seed cleaning
plant,under the headings of the
plant building, including loca-
tion, size, type, windows, doors,
floors, etc.; machinery, dealing
with recommended types end
sizes, power installation and
operation; equipment such as
screens, screen • racks, dust col-
lectors, weed seed disposal units,
hoppers, elevators, bins, bag stor-
age; business practises including
identification of lots, charges, re-
cords, services, and advertising.
In the afternoon, the conference
adjourned to the seed cleaning
plant of R. N. Alexander at Lon-
desboro, where there was a
demonstration of the current
methods of doing each operation.
Mr. MacLeod also demonstrated
the special uses to ,which various
screens should be put. ,
COUNTY FARMERS
MUCH INTERESTED
IN SALE OF BULLS
R. Gordon Bennett, Clinton,
agricultural representative for
Huron County, stated toddy that
the show and sale of beef bulls
to be held in the Sheep and Swine
Arena, Royal Winter Fair Build-
ings, Toronto, on March 15, is
arousing a great deal of interest
among the beef producers of
Huron County.
This venture, the first of its
kind in, Ontario, is being sponsor-
ed by the Ontario Department of
Agriculture in co-operation with
the various beef cattle associa-
tions, for the purpose of dlstribut-
ing good sires throughout the
Province.
The Ontario Department of
Agriculture has a double interest
in this event, Mr. Bennett point-
ed out. Not only is the Depart-
ment providing prize money for
the show, but also is offering a
Premium to each Ontario resi-
dent who makes a •purchase in
the sale. The premium will be
equal to one-third of the pur-
chase price of the bull up to e

maximum of $150, he. stated. This
corrects a reported statement
made by Mr. Bennett in a recent
issue of this paper regarding the
amount of premium to be paid.
Mr. Bennett said that the
premium would be payable in
two instalments, one-half the
amount being paid following the
sale, the other half at the end of
one year provided the bull has
been maintained in a satisfactory
breeding condition. This is the
only sale where individual pur-
chasers may qualify for prem-
iums.
Ninety bulls have been entered
by leading breeders in Ontario.
This total consists of 16 Aber-
deen -Angus; 18 Herefords and 56
Shorthorns. The committee in
charge has guarded against the
possibility of inferior animals
being offered by requiring every
bull to be carefully inspected and
approved before entering the
show ring. Bulls that are con-
sidered below a recognized
standard will he refused admit-
tance to the ring and only ani-
mals that have been shown may
qualify for the auction. Inspec-
tion will be done by a special
committee consisting of one rep-
resentative of each breed and a
Veterinary Surgeon.
The show classification provides
for four classes in each breed.
The youngest classes are for bulls
born between January 1, 1948,
and April 30, 1948, while the
oldest classes are for bulls born
between the same dates in 1947.
Men well known in live stock
circles have been chosen to judge
the show. Reford Gardhouse of
Weston will make the awards In
the Shorthorn classes; Professor
R. G. Knox of Guelph will judge
the Herefords and Lloyd Meek,
breeder and exhibitor of the
grand champion steer at last
year's Royal Winter Fair will pin
the ribbons on the Aberdeen -
Angus.
Third Wolf Spotted

The third wolf 'to be seen. in
the Hensall vicinity in the last
month was spotted Tuesday„bY,
Mrs. Glen was,

Explorers' Group Aims
To Build Character
(By Mrs. N. W. Trewartha)
The WilhellSaine Trewartha Ex-
plorers' Group meet regularly
each week at 4.30 p.m. on Tues-
day in ` Wesley -Willis United
Church hall.
The question has been asked
"Why introduce Explorers into
the programme of Christian
Education in a local congrega-
tion?” A few of the many rea-
sons can be advanced. More
time is needed for the Christian
nurture of our Juniors and in
many churches this time can only
be secured on a week day. Again
a balanced programme of work
and, worship, play and social good
times, is desirable and some of
these activities cannot be carried
on in the Sunday session. Thus
a week day session will make
possible this expanded program.
"Explorers" is built on the dis-
tinctive characteristics, Interetss
and needs of Juniors, arid some-
times the juniors envy 'teen-age
girls in "Canadian Girls in Train-
ing" but it is so .carefully pre-
pared that it takes none of the
freshness from 'teen-age pro-
grammes while preparing the
juniors for future promotion and
intelligent participation later.
At the weekly meeting on Feb-
ruary 22 the Explorers enjoyed
a very lovely and informal talk
from a Mrs. Charles Nelson on
"Girls and Missions" which com-
pleted a very worthwhile session
for all.
Two distinctive explorations
characterized the Expedition
(weekly meeting of Explorers)
on Tuesday, March 1. Police
Chief James Thompson drilled
the group on safety traffic rules,
and later, a fine sleigh ride about
the town for the group was made
possible by the congenial Leonard
Hunter, appropriating his fine
team of sorels and sleigh for the
accommodation of the group.
Later, on returning to the
Church Hall, an "apple+hunt"
proved very appealing and each
girl found a rosy apple for her-
self from some hidden corner.
Expedition closed with "taps"
and "Thanks for the Evening,
Comrades"
