f 'HOLSTEINS FROM WIDE AREA SOLD HERE Some of Ontario's good repre- sentative Holsteins ch ange d hands in Oshawa yesterday when the first local Black and White consignment sale was staged at the air Grounds.

Photo by Dutton--Times Studio American Buyers Bid For Holsteins American buyers were most active yesterday afternoon at the first Black and White consignment sale which has ever been held locally. A tent at Oshawa fairgrounds housed the auction ring. It was the enterprise of two young farmers, walter Frank, who lives four miles north of Bowman- ville and Alex MacKenzie of Wood- stock. About 200 potential buyers attended. Prices brought were only average and were very much lower than the same Holstein animals would bring on the American mar- ket where most of them purchased yesterday will be shipped. 52 ANIMALS OFFERED The total of 52 animals included fop consignments Hawkherst Farm, Agincourt; Far Land Farms, Picton; P. J. Webster, Picton; James T. Brown, Newcastle; most prominent breeders. All ani- mals were from accredited. herds, vested and ready for export. Alex MacKenzie, an experienced suctioneer, was assisted by Hugh Coulson, of the Holstein Journal, who gave the pedigrees and called to the attention of buyers the fine points of each animal. Ringmen, who exhorted the audience and as- sisted with the bidding, were two experienced auctioneers: Ted Jack- son of Port Perry and Angus Bru- bacher of Kitchener. Earl Brown was .Jeadsman who conducted the animals from the fairgrounds stable to show them in the ring. Consignment sales, common in Western Ontario and other parts of Canada, have not previously made an appearance in this area although the project, which involves considerable financial outlay, has frequently been considered by a group of Ontario County men. The next such sale will be at Oshawa Fair Grounds on May 29. From Kingston on the east, to Weston both Holsteins and purchasers came Bruce Naylor, 'Weston and some other of Ontario's to the sale yesterday. Considering it was the first such venture, it was a substantial success. PRICES ONLY AVERAGE Following are some sample prices fetched: Browview Futurity Rex consigned by James T.

CLARKE We tip our hat to the Jersey- men of the states of Washington and Oregon for being the first or- ganized group of farmers to start a project of modern mechaniz- ing and sales promotion of their own product. The project was started in 1947 by a handful of farmers and one or two small dairies. These men decided to make a concerted effort to market their milk by selling it on its special merits. ALL JERSEY They agreed on the "trade-name, "All Jersey", which was register- with the U.S. Patent Office, ® the services of an advertis- ing agency and began signing up rd producers and distributors. In the first place they are sell- ing milk, the high butterfat con- tent is given only second place, but the emphasis is on solids-non- fat. They are advertising that "stan- dardized All Jersey milk contains 25 per cent more protein, 20 per cent more calcium, nine per cent more phosphorus, seven per cent more milk sugar and 10 per cent more food value than natural milk of the same butterfat content." These claims are based mainly on the research work done at the dairy department of the Oregon State College bv Dr. G. A. Rich- ardson and associates, To our knowledge this is the first time that the importance of milk-solids-non-fat is being recog- nized by any farmers' organiza- tion and that special efforts are | being made to make the public conscious of their importance in our daily diet. Dr. Richardson asserts, for in- stance, that the vitamins in one quart of milk would cost 20 cents if bought in the form of a capsule at the drugstore.

(Stiver collection), the protein, it may be said that the farmer is quite aware of the value of the protein content in the | concentrates he feeds to his cattle |and. its relation to the price he has to pay for it. But when it comes to selling his own product, he looks at the but- terfat test and the returns he gets for his cream, and regards the skim milk with all its proteins and minerals and vitamins as more or less a nuisance. | He disposes of it by sending it {to the dairy in the form of sur- plus milk, which does not bring (him any return beyond the value of the cream; he feeds it to pigs or calves or chickens, which brings him a small reward, or he simply | throws it away Neither the producer nor the | consumer realizes the tremendous waste inherent in this system. |NEW POSSIBILITIES | In a world that is half starved lof food and which is trying to get iby on a diet of carbohydrates, con- sisting mostly of farinaceous starches like those of wheat and rice, in a world which is in bitter need of every gram of animal (protein it can save for human |consumption, hundreds of thous- Spring Cuts Circulation At Library | The fine spring days in March {kept circulation down in all de- {partments at the library. The re- port of the chief librarian, Miss |Jean Fetterly show that 18503 books were loaned in all depart- ments during March. Books totalling 400 were added to the collection and 116 worn out books withdrawn. 630 magazines and 20 pamphlets were circulated. Mrs. Aldwinckle of The Times- Gazette accompanied Mrs. Stacey and Mrs. Gardiner to the hospital on one of the weekly visits and was quite impressed with our work there. Her article in The Times- Gazette was much appreciated. 158 new readers joined the lib- rary during March. 109 readers withdrew their registration. Mrs. C. E. Ebbett has been ap- pointed on the staff replacing Miss Joan Hickey who will be married shortly. The juvenile department was busy as usual with a circulation of over seven thousand books. Books were supplied to a Home and School organization as suggestions for new book purchases for a school |library. A book display was loan- led to the reading convener of an- {other home and school association for their monthly meeting. 285 chil- dren attended the four story hours. HUSBAND, WIFE BOTH DIE OWEN SOUND (CP)--Mrs. Tho- mas James Hills, 75, died Wed- nesday at her home near Hep- worth, 36 hours after her husband, 73. They are survived by two daughters and one son. ands of tons of the precious stuff are wasted annually. Here is a wide open field for producers' associations and farm organizations to expand their acti- vities into research work and the development of new markets. . If the cost of production of milk could be spread over butterfat and skim milk by giving the farmer a fair price for his solids - non - fat, the price of butter could be re- duced and consumption would in- | crease. | Farmers could forget the war against margarine which is here to stay, and give up the battle for {the color ban which is bound to |80_anyway. | By exploring the possibilities of {new uses for milk-solids - non-fat, by informing the consuming public of the high food values of the min- erals, vitamins and proteins con- tained in skim milk products, sold at a lower price than in any other form, the demand for these prod- ucts could be stimulated and new markets opened. MIGHTY WEAPON | Last but not least, these pro- {teins could form a mighty weapon {in the fight against communism, iif they were added to the ship- ments of wheat going to the Far We should remember, though, that communism thrives not only on empty bellies, but also on empty minds and empty souls. To give away our food surpluses simply to get rid of them and to bolster up our home prices, is not enough, It has to be done in the spirit of Christian co-operation with [the wish to help those peoples to eventually help themselves Steelworkers Plan Meeting Next Monday An important meeting of Local 1817, United Steelworkers, is call- ed for seven o'clock Monday night in the UAW hall. Crucial business concerns both the Fittings Division and Ontario Malleable Division. Fittings members have been told by the management of their union that although notice was given the company on March 2 that the union is seeking changes in the agreement which expires April 30, negotiations so far have produced nothing. Meetings were held with the company on April 8 and 13 at which Plant Manager E. G. Storie said: "The company has enough faith in the future to renew the present agreement," but that union proposals would "ruin the com- pany". Major request by the union is a wage increase which would pro- vide for a $1.50 hourly basic labor rate. Present rates are $1.25°an hour in the machining division and $1.31 in the foundry division. The same base rate is being asked in both divisions. The union is also asking that November 11 be a paid legal holidays, bringing the total number to nine. Extension of summer vacations is also asked. The union wants two weeks vacation with pay after one year of service and three weeks after 10 years' employment. Present practice is for one week up to three years and two weeks over three years. It is also asked that a pension plan be instituted and that the company pay full cost of Blue Cross and PSI medical services. Fittings has told the union that it does not care to make a count er - offer because "the union and the company are so far apart". The union has an eye to the com- pany's financial statement for 1952 which shows a profit of $232,- 512 as compared with $179,916 the previous year. 'Monday's union meeting will de- cide what can be done to hasten renewal of agreement on the basis of a reasonable settlement. The union can apply to the Ontario Labor Relations Board for a con- ciliator or can refuse to work on May 1, if the contract is not re- newed. As to the Ontario Malleable Members, the meeting will dis- cuss possibilities of a layoff or cur- tailed work week. TANK TRACKS OSHAWA Combining The Oshawa Times and Whitby Gazette and Chronicle THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE WHITBY VoL 7--ne 50 OSHAWA-WHITBY, FRIDAY, APRIL 17, 1953 PAGE THREE Africa missionary and educator, Miss Verna L. Tite, will be speak- ing Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings at the Free Methodist Church, 17 Erie Street. On furlough from Portuguese East Africa, Miss Tite has been serving as principal of the Girls' Boarding School and Government Day School, Inhamachafo. She re- presents the General Missionary Board of the Free Methodist Church of North America. Miss Tite brings with her kodachrome slides of mis- sion work in Portuguese East Africa. The services will begin at 8 pm, Friday and Saturday and 7 p.m. on Sunday. As principal of the Inhamachafo Schools, Miss Tite has been contri- buting actively to the making of a new day for young Africa. The training of girls in the Boarding School is raising the status of African womanhood, especially since the educating of women has only recently been undertaken, and that by Christian missionaries. Students at the school receive practical train- ing in the care of a home and family, in addition to academic and thorough training in the Bible. Those enrolled in the Government Day School take government exam- inations and upon graduation hold positions of trust and responsibility. Many become teachers in Free Methodist mission schools. Under Miss Tite's supervision this year the school' enrollment nearly doubled, now totaling nearly 400 Missionary Will Conduct Campaign MISS VERNA L. TITE tudents. She reports that the de- mand for entrance to the school far exceeds the present facilities' ability to meet it. Miss Tite received her education at Roberts Wesleyan College Chili, N.Y., and Greenville College, Illinois, U.S.A. She has spent seven years in Africa as an educational missionary and after one and one- half years furlough in this country will' return to resume her position as principal of the Inhamachafo Schools, A slight error appeared in our tank tracks column last week when it was stated that the Sergeants' Mess Dinner would be held this Saturday evening at the armouries.

Brown, Big Work Project Will Start Soon Many Changes At Celina And Athol The junction of Athol and Celina Streets will become a beehive of construction activity within a few days. The city is to get a new sidewalk free of cost. Management of a large chain store which has gone up on the north-west corner of the junction, has offered to have the sidewalk on the Athol Street side of their store extended out a further four and a half feet. That will mean that the sidewalk in front of the store will be 13 feet wide on city property. At present that will mean the side- walk will jog out but Athol Street has a 70 foot street allowance. Whent he new post office is built the street will be resurfaced and widened, probably to a width that will accommodate four lanes of traffic. The Celina sidewalk is to be re- pured to its present width. RE-LAYING MAIN To allow adequate fire protection for the centre of the city the PUC is relaying a main water pipe A 4 down Celina Street from King to Bruce, At present only four inches in diameter the pipe is to be re- placed with an eight-inch pipe. As the new sidewalk is built on | Athol Street the PUC will' run its | wires beneath the surface and the {unsightly large poles which are present disfigure Athol from King to Celina will be removed. Work on the sidewalk is to start on Monday. The new sidewalk width will probably mean that six parking meters on the north side of Athol will have to be moved to the south side, Announcement of the large works project was made yesterday aft- ernoon by Fred Crome, the acting city engineer. In addition to the new sidewalk, underground wiring and water main jobs the area will also see the completion of the chain store and the start of con- struction work on the post office. By E. BROCK BRACE When The Times-Gazette police reporter was curious about what sort of cases came before the mag- istrate 50 years ago, he found that there were no records of that day in the Oshawa police station. But, looking through the issues of the "Oshawa Vindicator" for 1903, he found the odd reference to local crime in the yellowed pages of that outspoken weekly. Of course, in those horse-and-bug- gy days there were no traffic vio- lations to plague the law enforce- ment people, but the issue of Octo- ber 25, 1903, shows that history repeats itself and boys will be "Learning that the boys of this town have had a bad record for destructive Hallowe'en pranks, Chief Constable Green asks us to warn them, as he intends to enlist help enough to watch every move, and wants it fully understood that prosecutions will follow in every case of detection." Perhaps the chief was harking back to a May 22 item which read: "The boys named Brown and Pirie were arrested on Mon- day for smashing incandescent lights in the Rathburn Co.'s yards. There were burnt matches lying around, indicating that cigarettes were indulged in. The boys admit- ted the damage, and the magis- trate decided to try a new move on them. He let them go on sus- pended sentence, which means that if they do any further tricks they will be punished for . The Hains were paid for by their par- ents." TRESPASS CASE Three men were brought before Magistrate Merton that year by the Darlington Road and Gun Club for trespassing on Farewells Marsh, which the club held as a "shooting ground". The trio were dismissed, and the case called one for the civil court. The Vindicator commented: This leaves it open for Oshawa Had Crime - In The Old Days any person to gol shooting until the club establishes its title." Another column in the October 25 issue refers to. an event 30 years before that, in 1871, when: "The 'Herring gang' and the 'Har- mony Gang' between whom a per- petual feud existed, had it out at Spurrill's bar room last night. A man named Lott and two others had to be stitched together at Dr. McGill's after the shindy. There was great excitement in town." We guess so. Casting back to November, 1901, we find two horse thieves, Stewart and Thompson, sentenced by Mag- istrate Harper to five and three years respectively in Kingston pen- itentiary, Thompson, it appears, was a repeater, and received a warm welcome from the warden of that good, grey pile. In the same issue: "A man vis- OSHAWA CRIME (Continued on Page 5) RADIO GUARANTEED PARTS AND SERVICE 4} ELECTRIC DIAL 5-4711 or 3-3425 Org pti survived that stock car crash I'll know.
