The big, plump, frozen turkey
you purchase at Christmas time
requires careful attention before
it reaches the oven. Food
specialists at the Ontario Food
Council, Ministry of Agriculture
Iss and Food, say it is very impor-
tant to estimate the thawing time
as accurately as possible, so that •
the bird goes into the oven as
• soon as possible after it is com-
pletely thawed.
At room temperature, a 15-
to 20-pound turkey takes about
* 20 to 30 hours to thaw (roughly
1 1/2 hours per pound).The out-
side of the poultry thaws and be-
comes warm. Surface deteriora-
tion could result before the inside
is completely thawed. If you
thaw your turkey at room tem-
perature, slit the bag open and
I, tilt the bird to allow moisture
to run out of the bag.
It is safer to thaw poultry
in the refrigerator. Refrigerator
thawing time for a 20-pound bird
would be 4 days (roughly 5
hours per pound). The turkey
should be left in its original
wrappingS, but the bag should
be slit and the turkey placed
on a rack over a pan to catch
the drips.
The easiest way to thaw tur-
key is to leave it in Its original
watertight bag and submerge it
in cold water. The part that
• thaws first will remain cold until
the entire bird is defrosted
The thawing time for a 20-
pound bird is then reduced to
20 hours (roughly 1 hour per
pound). ,
Once the bird .has thawed,
remove store wrappings and gib-
* lets, wrap turkey loosely in
waxed paper -- refrigerate or
cook immediately. Store giblets
separately in the refrigerator.
An expositor Classified will
pay you dividends. Have you

clan, $7,000 to $9,000.
Clerk-treasurer John Berry
and deputy clerk-treasurer Bill
Healy each received an addit-
ional $1,000 bringing taeir sal-
aries to $17,500 and $13,000
respectively. Construction safe-
ty engineer Everett Smith re-
ceived an additional $500 to
$6,700 per annum.
At HuronView, the estimates
are in for the landscaping pro-
ject there. Contracts let to
date include R. Gordon Rapson,
$8,293 for sidewalks and path-
ways; Ives Construction,$2,500
for patios; Art's Landscaping,
$4,224.62 for trees and shrubs;
and Huron County Highways, $219
for contingencies. Total is
$15,236.62.
"This total is approximately
1-2,000 less than the original
estimate," said Hugh Flynn,
chairman. "The balance of the
work will now have to be left
until next spring. This includes
the installation of a planter,light-
ing and the golf greens, as well,
as the digging of flower beds in
certain areas around the Home."
Also at Huronview, the fuel
oil tender was let to Ross
Scott Fuels, BruCefield, for
12.95 cents per gallon. Last
year's oil cost 14.16 cents per
gallon.
Snow removal at Huronview
will cost $11 per hour this year
and the contract goes to Glen
Layton, R.R.5, Clinton. Layton
hdd the .contract last year at
the same cost.
Total expenditures in the
Social Services department
amounted to $232,314.58 as of
October 31, 1972. The county
share amounted to $62,313.90
with the province contributing
the balance. The couity share
is approximately $15,000 less
than anticipated and it is ex-
pected the surplus will be main-
tained for the balance of the
year.
John McKinnon said the sur-
plus is due to the fact ehe pro-
vince of Ontario is taking over
the-extended care program for
nursing home patients.
Next year's committee struc-
ture will be a little different. The
DeVelopment com -nittee will be
divorced from the planning board
and will be set up with a separate
committee consisting of five
members. This committee's res-
ponsibility will be the develop-
ment officer, tourism, reforestat-
ion properties and agricultural
matters.
The function of the county,
museum will be transferred back
to the property committee.
Two additional members will
be added to the Social Service
Committee, although only, four of
thestotali could represent County
Council on the Children's Aid
Board.
University of Western Ontario
scholarships were approved for
John Goddard of Hensall and
Margaret Gorwills, Seaforth.
scholarship for Joseph Phelan,

town College of Agricultural
Technology, was also approved.

The county's Official Plan
has had yet another reyiew by
county council and members were
concerned enough about some new
segment proposed' by the pro-
vincial government to refer the
whole matter back to the plane
ning committee for another look.
The portion on mobile homes
within the county was one which
caused the most concern among
the councillors. It was termed
"top restrictive" in that it
Stated that mobile homes or house
trailers would "only be perm itted
as semi-permanent or permanent
dwelling units provided they are
located in a properly planned
trailer park which, in turn, shall
only be permitted by an amend-
ment to the restricted area (zon-
ing) bylaw implementing the
municipality's secondary plan."
The debate which began
Thursday continued into Friday
and, produced plenty of hot de-
bates.
Anson McKinley of Stanley
Township claimed the section
prevented trailers . in agricul-
tural areas even though the per-
son residing in the trailers
were "agriculturally oriented".
"We must have some control
but certainly not the rigidity
that is built into this," stated
Reeve McKinley.
Charles Thomas, reeve of
Grey, said the county was en-
deavoring to "lump us all to-
gether". He complained that
rural municipalities which were
in agreement with trailers locat-
ing within their boundaries in
certain loc?tions, would be
prevented from allowing this.
"The urban municipalities
have secondary plans, " said
Reeve Thomas. "That's where
the regulations should be. When
you put it in the overall county
plan, you are lumping us all
together."
Several members of council,
including Warden Elmer Hayter,
felt the control was still with
the local municipalities through
the Zoning bylaws. Other mem-
bers, however, said no zoning
bylaws would be approved that
were in conflict with the Official
plan of the county.
Some members of council ar-
gued that the policy was not too
restrictive when viewed on "a
broader scale". Reeve Paul
Carroll of Goderich said the
Overpopulated?
America's pet populatio,n in-
cludes 2 million cats, 26 million
caged birds, 32.6 million dogs,
and 500 mllion tropical fish,
N
control was needed since there
could be five or 10 years between
the Official Plan and the approval
of secondary plans throughout the
county.
"1 hope UDIRA will look into
this," said Reeve McKine
this," said Reeve McKiniy. "I
don't think the policy shdnld be
so rigid right off the bat. This
is not what was presented to this
county."
Reeve Carroll said some
Members of council were not
talking land use, but rather
assessment. He said it was
important to find a balance from
both the urban and rural points
of view.
Reeve Carroll noted that the
urban centres were concerned
about increased urban-like de-
velopment in rural areas be-
cause it meant that an increased
number of people residing in the
country and paying taxes to rural
municipalities were using the
services usually provided only
-",by urban municipalities such as
arenas,. swimming pe ols, etc.
He was reminded by Warden
Hayter that rural dwellers also
spend their money in the urban
centres.
