Beef Bull Show and Sale OPPORTUNITY FOR BREEDERS AT BEEF BULL SHOW AND SALE Prospective buyers at the sale of Beef Bulls to be held in the Sheep and Swine Arena at the Exhibition Grounds in Toronto on March 21st would do well to plan on attending the show of these animals on the pre- ceding day, This suggestion' comes from W. P. Watson, Livestock Com- missioner for Ontario and Secretary for the Show and Sale. Mr. Wateon adyanced the idea that the show on March 20th will give the prospective buyers a real opportunity to look over all the 286 animals being offered before the sale begins, This means an opportunity for compari- son ahead of time, rather than attemp- ting to decide whether or not an ani- mal js the one you want when he is brought into the ring by himself at the time of the auction. Regarding the show, he points out that some changes have been made in the system of placing the animals in the show. The judges will place the animals in three groups. The first group will consist of bulls which are considered suitable as. herd-sires- in purebred herds. The second will in- | clude bulls considered to be desirable animals for use in commercial beef herds; and the third will include any animals entered which are not consi- dered desirable and hence are culled. However, for the judging there are four classes in each of the three breeds (Shorthorn; Aberdeen-Angus & Here- ford) witha Champion and Reserve Champion for each breed to be selec- | ted from the winners of these classes. Mr. Watson emphasizes that this Show and Sale of Beef Bulls presents a real opportunity for beef producers to obtain a good young bull for their herd at a -very reasonable cost. The combination of the financial assiat- ance offered by the Ontario Depart- ment of Agriculture and the high 'sal- vage value of old or, undesirable bulls when sold for beef makes it possible to obtain a really good bull for a low cost. With bulls from 147 of the best beef herds in Ontario there is little room left for doubt about the quality of the animals being offered. : Further information about the Show 'and 'Sale can be obtained by writing to the Sale Secretary, W. P. Watson, Parliament Buildings, Toronto. Ont. Prospect W. A The Prospect Woman's Association will meet on Wednesday, March 28th at 2,80 p.m. in Prospect School. Visit. ors are cordially invited to attend. Please note change of date and place. Farm Forums COENTY FARM FORUM RALLY. "Discussion of problems in small groups is a sound democratic tech. nique", declared Clare Burt, Provin- cial Secretary. of Farm Forum when he spoke "Wednesday _evening to a packed audience at the County Farm Forum Rally. in Greenbank Hall. Farm Forum and Federation of Agriculture are one and the same group. The Farm lorums discuss their problems and the action of. the Federation is guided by their findings. "Interest Forums is increasing all across the Province", said Mr. Burt, "and it the Forums meet with the Township Fed- ertions of Agriculture on review in. Farm especially keen where pights as is done in Pickering." Marketing Legislation Mr. Burt stated that a serious pro- 1936 by which farmers were denied the right to pool and market their own produce. The Forums decided we must make our rightful demands through our Federation of Agriculture until we get the required legislation. This will benefit both producers and consumers, A Resolution re Legislation to en- able the producer to pool and market dairy products was passed unanimous- ly by the meeting. Forum Projects Murs, I.
