Mr. Rumball ex- plained that the cost of having a truck and ladder present for nine hours had cost $43. The problem of the high cost had been investigated, and other tree-cutting will be planned to cost less. Mr. Rumball noted that the saw was in disrepair, and since it would cost $50 to repair, he felt a new one should be bought instead. Contracts for repairs and re- decorating to the lower floor of the Clinton Town Hall were ap- proved as follows: Grant Rath and D. A. Kay, painting, $450; Cale Doucette, lowering ceil- ing, $815; A. W. Groves and Son, wiring and fixtures $650; a total of $1,915. This comes under the jurisdiction of the general government committee, headed by deputy reeve Morgan Agnew, Mr. Agnew explained that this would include 'everything but the cells on the ground floor. To save on electric costs, lie plans rising the service now installed, and cutting off the service to the top floor of the hall •altogether. The mayor was authorized to sign a warrant for the sale of properties which may be elig- ible for sale for tax arrears in 1061.

Lorne Brown Motors Limited After losing the first game in Goderich last Saturday night 4-3, Clinton Midget hockey team came back and won the second game in Clinton Lions Arena on Tuesday night, to win the two-game total-goals series 10-8. The win was a terrific tri- umph for both players and fans. Goderich was considered a very strong team and were allowed to stay in. "B" competition this year. Going thito the second game one goal up, Goderich added three more before Clinton started to score. In the second period Bruce Cooper scored three goals and Bob Livermore one to even the series score. Then in the third Don Lock- wood made one of his famous rushes to put Clinton ahead. Twenty seconds later, Bob Livermore scored his third goal of the game to put Clinton two up. From then on Clinton play- ed perfect defensive hockey, with Lockwood, Bruce Cooper and Gary Poxon being most effective, When Goderich did get through to the net, Bayne Boyes was unbeatable. Clinton now meets the win- ners of Wingham-Kincardine series with the first game away and return game here probably next Tuesday.

Council meeting on Monday evening for the regular Febru- ary session passed a $25 grant to the Huron County Seed Fair which will be •held in the Clin- ton District Collegiate Institute on March 2, 3, 4. J. W. Counter approached council for an increased grant for the Clinton Spring Show. Mr. Counter is vice-president of the Huron Central Agricul- tural Society, which sponsors this century-old agricultural day in town each spring. Mr. Counter reported that though the fair had an over- draft of $1,935, there was a provincial grant to apply to that, which leaves $1,235 owing. Last year the fair showed a profit for the day of $288, wh- ich "is not much, considering the wonderful show which was presented," commented Mr. Counter. He noted that Mr. A, 3. Mc- Murray had again consented to act as secretary-treasurer (or secretary-manager, might be the better term), and the fair directors had assured him of strong support. (Note: this ap- pointment carries no salary or financial remuneration.) Plans are now underway for a raffle, on which money is ex- petted to be made, Poor man- agement last year resulted in a loss of $6 on the raffle, Gate receipts for the fair last year were about $800. Gr- ants about $800 and donations about $800, plus provincial gr- ant of 7-800 dollars, made, to- tal receipts of $3,780. With $2,- 307 paid out in prizes, about $1,100 was used to operate the fair for that day, Mr. Counter noted that the directors hoped by next year to find someone willing to try to replace Mr. McMurray as Clinton Legion Juvenile hoc- key team are well on their way to WOAA Juvenile "B" honors, winning the first of a best of three series with Palmerston on Tuesday night in Palmerston, Score was 7-3.

Mrs. Milton Steepe, the presi- dent of the WA, welcomed all present and expressed regret that many in the community could not attend due to the prevalence of chicken-pox. There were 12 tables of euchre. The ladies' high prize was won by Mrs. Lloyd Miller; ladies' low, Mrs. Wright; men's high, Fred Thompson; men's low, Don Welsh. Mrs. Fred Thompson was the lady with the most lone hands and Frank Thompson, men's most lone hands. During the evening attractive little baskets of •home-made candy were sold. Mrs. John Grigg was in charge of this pro- ject, which proved quite pop- ular. A bushel of apples donat- ed by Stewart Middleton was also sold—partly in plastic bags and also singly. Mrs. Steepe and her capable committee consisting of Mrs. Arnold Miller, Mrs. John Smith and Mrs. 0. Cole are to be congratulated on a very enjoy- able party. secretary - manager. "Mr. Mc- Murray is doing the job of three or four men, and it will be very difficult to find any- one to replace him," said Mr. Counter. Date of the fair is June 3, with the Hensall Spring Show planned for the evening before, Decision on this grant was left until the next meeting, when all grants will be con- sidered. A request from Muriel Beyers for compensation following a fall on ice on Isaac Street in mid-January when she broke an ankle, was filed. This is in the hands of the insurance comp- any. Council authorized the pay- ment of $170 membership fee in the Mid,-Western Ontario Development Association, Mid- WODA covers four counties, with head office in Stratford and a full time staff devoted to the job of .attracting industry to the area, and promoting the four counties tourist-wise. Councillors :Walter Newcom- be and George Rumball both spoke enthusiastically for join- ung the group. Mr. Rurnball for the good it could do to attract tourists, and Mr. Newcombe on the basis that "with nothing invested, we cannot hope rto gain." Mr. Counter also Spoke in favour, saying "We'll cert- ainly have a much better ch. Since of attracting industry if we belong than if we don't," Official representatives ap- pointed by council are Council. 'or W, C.

Asked about the danger of FAME becoming too large and getting "just like the other big firms", Mr. Dickey noted that -the only danger was that "if we get too big, the greatest problem would be large profits (or savings) coming back to you, the primary producers." Dr, Monieson commented that FAME would have to be big enough to have control of a large percentage of the kill, or they could' not affect prices. Patronage dividends will be paid to FAME members wheth- er or not their hogs are del- ivered to the FAME plants. Asked why UCO did not un- dertake the processing and packaging contemplated by FAME, Mr. Dickey replied that UCO had not wanted to do it, since they felt FAME was too big a project, and would even- tually be bigger than UCO. Someone asked if any pack- ers held stock in UCO and was told by Bob McKercher, chair- man of UDPC that the 150 local co-operatives own all of UCO. One question was where FAME would find markets, sin- ce stores were already being supplied. Dr. Monieson said they had talked with chain stores, and found they had "no loyalties". They will buy where they get quality and an assured supply. The group was told that FAME plants will be located where a sufficient local interest is shown, and where a sufficient supply can be expected. FAME is not a Hog Produc- ers organization. There has been no !transfer of money from the 01-IPA. Membership is open to all livestock producers. Plans are to slaughter, process, pack- age and transport all types of meat products (except poul- try). Absolute need for farmers to take interest in their own bus- iness after it leaves' the farm was indicated in a comment Mr. Dickey had read in a pub- lication called the National Farmer, where it was stated that "the whole turkey crop in the United States now depends!

No longer is it a mat- ter there of a farmer control- ling his own production. If the packer can get credit, then he will issue contracts, not be- fore. 'Mr. Dickey stated that it was "the packers who bring in Un- ited States oils to kill your butter market; the packers who bring in United States cattle in order to fiddle with the dol- lar; the packers who drive big red trucks around carrying your products inside, and ad- vertising margarine on the out- side." Mr. Warner requested all hog producers to remember March 6, the date for the nomination and vote for representatives on the Huron County Hog Mark- eting Board, beginning at 10 in the morning, and asked' for strong participation. At. 'the meeting with Mr Dickey and Dr. Monieson was Cecil Bell, manager of the Tor- onto Dominion Bank, Dundee and Prince Edward Drive br- anch, Toronto, which is supply- ing the needed' capital for FAME to operate until suffic- ient funds are raised. Without this type of co-operation, the FAME co-operative would have been unable 'to progress as far as it has so soon.

O an With Beard Plans Sacrifice in Name of FAME A man with great faith in the success of FAME is Bob Good, Brant County, who sp- orts a luxuriant beard of which he is very proud. Mr. Good is one of the 22 directors on the FAME board. At a meeting in Toronto on Tuesday, he offered to have some young lady shave off half of his beard just as soon as one million shares in FAME have been sold. Then he prom- ises to wear the other half of the beard for the next 30 days. There is a possibility that the shaving stunt will be sched- uled to take place on some farm television show. Mr. Good has been active in furthering farm organizations and was responsible in, great part for organizing the "milk pool" tin Oxford County. 15,00, Clinton received three penalties and Palmerston 'two hi the first period.
