Plowmen's Convention
Ontario plowmen assembled intheir
annual convention at Toronto expres-
sed !gratification over .the record at-
tendance at the International meet
last 'October. This was in •spite of se-
vere weather condition's 'which'dem-
onstrated the fact that the !public
could be attracted without offering en-
tertainment features.
The site forr the i10,318 competions
will be n'orth'west of Barrie. The
choice was made after representations
had been made by a three-man dele-
gation from Simcoe County. Consid-
eration was promised the request of a
delegation of combined !counties of
Leeds and 'Grenville, who asked for
the .mateh in 19139
The secretary -manager, J. A . Gar -
roll, stated, that in. addition to the big
match there are other activities spon-
sored by the ;Plowmen's Association.
There are 8.2 +branches, i&0 of which
conducted senior matches in 1191317. A
new branch was organized at Ancast-
er in Wentworth County. The Cavan
and South Monaghan Branch was re-
organized and enlarged' under the new
name ,Durham County. Similar action
has 'been proposed in !North Sintcoe.
(Application 'has been roceived,,for the
organization of Branches in Welling-
ton and' 'Renfrew 'Counties, Owing to
unfavorable local conditions, matches
were not 'held iby the Noelville and
Parry Sound South East Branches.
No feature of the work is more im-
portant than the instruction and en-
couragement 'given to juniors. Home
ploughing competitions were conduct-
ed in 12 communities and i111' Junior
Ploughing Matches were held. A jun-
ior competition was 'conducted in
Lanark County for the, ,first time in
1987. Department !judges officiated in
all cases. Last year, owing to 'limited
appropriation, the number +of''demon-
strations were likely to be restricted.
The executive thought this nmfortun-
ate as .demonstrations were ;consider-
ed perhatps the most effective method
of education available. As a conse-
quence, a committee was appointed to
interview' the Deputy Minister of Ag-
riculture, and as a result and addition-
al amount was made available.
