Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Beef on the hoof: Auctioneer Doug Moore calls for bids on prime livestock in a sale at the Ontario Stockyards at Keele St. and St. Clair Ave. The yards, an Ontario crown agency, are where prices are set that will eventually determine what shoppers across eastern Canada and parts of the United States pay for beef, veal, lamb, goat and horsemeat.
