Harry G. Hess
(By 'our Hensel]. correspondent)
Residents of Hensall and dis-
trict learned witli regret of the
passing of Harry G. Hess, 59, pro-
minent Zurich resident and for-
mer businessman, who died in St.
Joseph's Hospital, London,' on
Sunday, June 9, where he had
been a patient for the past two
weeks.
Born in Zurich, 'he had lived
there all his life, and he had con-
ducted the electrical, plumbing,
heating and radio business until
three years ago.
He was superintendent of the
Bell Telephone of Hay Township,
superintendent of the Waterworks
and Hydro, Zurich, and a mem-
ber of the Lions Club. He was a
member of the Evangelical Chur-
ch.
Surviving are his mother, Mrs.
C. Hess, Brinsley; his widow, the
former Beatrice Heist, Crediten;
One son Gordon, ,Zurich; one
daughter, Mrs. Eldrid (Pauline)
Simmons, Exeter; one brother, Al-
bert, Zurich jeweller; one sister,
Mrs. Rose Trevithick, Brinsley;

this account for the continued
strong production?
This order-in-council which was
supposed to be a benefit to the
farmer is in reality the very op-
posite. This announcement prev-
ented any hope that production
might fall off thereby forcing the
price up a cent or two at the
present and it also means that
about two,enonths extra produe-
tion will be stored. This in turn
will prevent any expected rise in
price for just; that much longer
this fall.
The net result is that the gov-
ernment is going to spend.a large
I was talking to a poultry pro- I sum of money to support the pric-
cessor this morning and, he told
bw. that . there was definitely a
smaller number of fowl ceming to
his plant during the past month.
Isn't it quite• evident that anyone
Who has a flock of hens laying
well enough to pay for their feed
can provide good wages if he holds
them for the extra 5 or 6 cents a
pound he is going to get when he
sells the hens?
Usually prices of eggs are a lit-
tle stronger in the spring but egg-
graders tell me that the flow of
eggs is continuing very strong
tvith no increase in price expected.
Certainly hens can be retained
