HOLSTEIN BULL CALF BRINGS TOP PRICE CANADIA/sT HISTORY The highest price ever paid in Can- ada for a single head of livestock, • $40,000, was paid at Oakville Mon- day, at the All -Canadian Holstein sale by the Waterloo County Holstein Breeders' Club for the five-monthe- •eld bull calf, "Glen•afton Killarney, :sold by S. J. E. McCague, Alliston. There have been eases of higher prices, $106,000 • paid for a Holstein • hull mined by Senator Hardy, Brock- ville, in the 'United States, and 450,000 for ether bulls in the United -States, but never before had such a high price been paid for a single animal in the Dominion. The Waterlog Association, which has an artificial breeding centre, will use Glenafton Killarney- there. Part ••of the money to pay for him was raised by subscriptions 'among County 'breeders. The entire offering of 65 head brought e145,275, for an average of a new Canadian record aver- -age for a consignment sale of cattle. Altogether 33 head, each brought at 'least $1,e00, the first time that so !many annuals have reaehed the four; figure mark at any Canadian sale. If each Canadian family used just one ounce less of meat each day, the national saving would be over 600 tons of meat a week—meat that would ,find its way to those who live with 'hunger. a ND NS im011.1011,14 MOM/01C PIPE 1013ACCO CREAM PRODUCERS TO ASK GOVERNMENT FOR VOTE UNDER ACT (Huron Federation New by County Secretary) Over 100 County Directors and voting delegates from all over On- tario gathered in Toronto on October 24 for the propose of forming a Provincial • Chain Producers' Assoc- iation.
