- Scope and Content
- Black and white photograph used in St. Thomas Times-Journal article published June 7, 1960 with caption: "Cows Intrigued- When Ontario Plowmen's Association directors toured the site of the 1960 International Plowing Match on the farm of T.J. Hume and Son, Springfield, on Monday with representatives of the local committee and municipal officials, cows in Mr. Hume's Holstein herd inquisitively joined the unusual gathering in their pasture. The cows alternated between looking solemnly and racing 'round and 'round the group like a band of Hollywood Indians. The plowmen were able to carry on despite the diversion."
