ZONE MEETING OF AGRICULTURAL SOCIETIES A request for uniformity in On- tario In dates for Daylight Sav- ing Tinges was endorsed by dele- gates from 15 agricultural socio. ties in Huron and Perth, holding their annual zone meeting at Brussels. Without a dissenting 'nice, re• preseutatives of the 15 societies approved a proposal by a three- man resolutions committee that the Agricultural Council of On- tario and the Ontario Association of Agricultural Societies be ask- ed to campaign against a repeti- tion of the patchwork arrange- ment of time changes that afflic- ted fflictted the zone area during the Fall Fair season this year. The resolution was drafted by William McKenzie, reeve of Exe- ter and chairman of Huron coun- ty council's agricultural commit- tee; K. J. Reaney, secretary of Mitchell Fall Fair; Frank Bell, sec:treas., of the Perth Plow- men's Association • and former secretary of Stratford Fall Fair. The muting approved it unani- mously, after it hard been pre- sented by Reeve McKenzie, Principal speaker at the meet- ing was G. W. Montgomery, Tor- onto, agricultural agent for the Canadian National Railways, and former agricultural representa- tive for Huron. Alex McTaggart, Toronto, of the agricultural soci- eties branch of the Ontario De- partment of Agriculture, was pre- sent to answer queries about pro- vincial grants to Stairs, and to ad- vise on policy for agrieelturai societies. James Mair, Brussels, was re- elected zone chairman fbr a see cull year; John Seimon, Logan, township, was re-elected vice- chairmen; and George. Watt, of Blyth, was re-elected secretary - treasurer. The nominating com- mittee report, recommending that all throe continue in office, was presented by Sidney Har- low, R.R, 2, St, Pauls. The women's division of the zone also voted to continue the 1955 executive in office for 1959, with Mrs. William Sebben, R. R. 4, Stratford, as president; Mrs. Josoph Grummett, Seaforth'„ vice- presiclent; Mts. Lorne Scrimge- our, Blyth, sec.-treas. Fall Fair directors who think that their only responsibility is to put on the annual Fair are losing sight of most of their pro- per objectives, said Mr. Mont- gomery, in his noon d'inner•hour address to the men and women delegates, There were once 400 agrioultural societies in Ontario; now there are only about 200, he sale. "Many of the other 340 macre the mistake of losing sight W everytheng but the annual Fair," he said, rear -round efforts to etiinu late improvements in farming should be made by agriculture societies, Mr. Montgomery said Activities that tau properly be undertaken by agricultural sone ties, he said, include surveys and atudies of farm problems public meetings and cleinonstra Lions at any time, of the year, or ganizecd campaigns against ani mal diseases and destructive in sects, reforestation projects, ant c,mpoiitions for young farm CONSTANCE Miss Joy Montgomery, of And- erson, a eat last week s with cIndiau spent parents, 14Ir. and Mrs. Clarence Montgomeny.

"Advocates of central county Fairs will never be able to re- place our local agricultural socd- eties,-if the agricultural ante - ties are working on a year-round basis," said Mr. Montgomery. One of the aims of every society, he suggested, should be to find ways of Making the local fairgrounds useful at other times of year than the annual fall exhibition, "In areas too small to be serv- ed by a service club," Mr. Mont- gomery suggested, 'agricultural societies can fill a gap and rend- er a service." 'Delegates were advised by Wil- liam Anderson, secretary of the Stratford Agricultural SooletY, that they should review thein public liability insurance, and make certain they have enough coverage as protection against 'clams for injuries to people at the fairgrounds.. Mr. Anderson's s u. es e ,s t i o n came in the course oe an open discussion period conducted be Douglas Miles and Ralph E. White ag reps for Sluron and Perth, respectively. They were assisted by Mr. McTaggart, and by Arthur Bolton and Bruce Mc- Corquodale, assistants to Air.. Miles and Mr. White, 'respective- ly. David White, president of St. Marys Agricultural Society, said he believes the distribution of prize money to departments of the Fair should be reviewed fre- quently to keep it up to date. This year, he said, his own Fair paid out about $1,000 in prizes for horses, and only about 3100 in prizes for Bogs; it is his own opinion, he said, that that does not reflect in true. proportion be- tween the place of the horse and the place -0f the bacon hog in the modern farm economy of this area. Some change is likely to be made, .lit'. McTaggart warned, in the flacon hog competitions for which added prize money has been given at many Ontario Fairs in recent years, by a commercial sponsor. There has been a re- markable deterioration in recent years, said Mr. McTaggart, in the quality of the hogs entered in the bacon grog classes, and the 51to11501' now considers that the added prize money is not acetone pushing its purpose of encourag- ing better quality in hogs. Delegates from. Lucknow and St. Marys said the bacon bog competitions at their Fairs this Year brought out big entry lists, and that premium prices were Paid when the hogs were auction- ed. They, and William Anderson of Stratford, agreed that they would be sorry to see the bacon hog competition dropped, Women delegates held their own sessions, morning and after- noon, in Melville Presbyterian Church, while the men met at Brussels Public Library.
