The first part of the evening a euchre and Too Busy to Write Much! Call in and discuss your Poultry, Hogs or Cattle Problems with us. 1. “Wormfood” for Poultry, Hogs, Etc., the new and proven discovery by R. A. Finn & Co* The only remedy we • know of that will check or prevent paralysis (or unthrifti­ ness) and kills all kinds of worms including microscopic tape worms in Poultry. 2. Health Minerals for Poultry, Cattle and Hogs. With these new feeds we can decrease the cost of feed­ ing and increase production by 20 per cent, or more. Many , customers in this district are doing this with mineralized feed following “Wormfood.” Dozens of customers are reporting /production of from 70 to Over 80/ per cent, on Health Minerals, mineralized 'Feed following ‘’Wormfood” and if you come into our office we can give you the names or take you to these customers. Here are some reports,—• 1. From 70 to 7'2 dozen eggs per week, .from* 175 pullets aS high as 15/0' eggs in one day. DESS feed used when using Health MINERAL in the Feed. Before using mineral in the feed produc­tion was good over 50 per cent, but used lj bags mixed feed iper week. After using mineralized feed production increased to over 70 per cent., and only one bag mineralized feed was used. 2. Production over 80 to 87 per ceiit.They’re laying too much, I don’t know how to stop them. As high as 200 eggs from 230 pullets. Cannibalism was also stopped after using Health Mineral. 3. After changing directly; over from ordinary commercial feed to your mineralized feed my production climbed from 50 to 7i5 per cent, in three weeks and still gaining, I think they will lay 85 per cent, by the way they look in another week, This is the most eggs we ever got this time of the year. The hew discovery “Wormfood” and Health Mineral will give you just as increased results in Hogs and Cattle as it will in Poul­ try. Increased vigour and thriftirtess and less feed per pound of gain, increased milk .production, less trouble with mastitis, caked udders abortion in cattle anemic and runty pigs. Our soil is contaminated with worth eggs and our feed defic­ ient in minerals. Use “Wormfood” for Hogs and poultry add and /Health mineral for hogs, cattle and poultry. Get those hogs away, at 5 months like yon used to do years ago. It eAn be done again if yo/U get on the right track.

He showed that there was now a surplus,.of nearly $9,000 in­ vested in Government Bonds and in stop piling up a larger surplus which is of no use to anyone, but to give the users of hydro in the vil­ lage the benefit of Hydro at cost, as was originally intended. Mr, pii- shie asked for the support of the electors of the village and if elected would work for cheaper hydro.

Young and Joseph Flynn were declared elected by acclama­ tion. Mr. Paterson was asked to take the chair for the after meeting and he immediately called on Mr. A. L. Case, secretary-treasurer of the school board. Mr, Case gave a good account of the work of the school, Showing the school was in a very flourishing condition and also gave figures on the difference in the cost of heating the school under the old and new systems. Mr. Geo. Hess, chairman of the school board was also called on. Mr. Hess stated that as Mr. Case had covered the ground fully he would not go into it again, but would try and answer any question that was asked, but everyone seemed well satisfied with the school report, was then called on. port on the work Council., explained ances, the reduction of the county debt, the improvements to the county home and the county roads. On village affairs he spoke of the up-keep and present conditions of ■our streets, improvements. made on the Town Hall and the cost of mov­ ing and improving the skating rink. Mr. Shaddick explained everything ( very satisfactorily and as this was . ihis first appearance at an annual j meeting as Reeve, he created a very ] favorable impression. The four | councillors were all called on in turn each thanked their mover and ■sec- ’ onder for the honor of another nom- I ination and asked to be supported again if their name was . on the j ballott paper. Mr. Geiger was then i called oil. He showed his old vig- I or, but was not harsh in his critic- i ism. He took up county affairs, the taking over by the Government of the Zurich Road as connecting link between No. 4 and the Blue­ water Highways. He was hot in favor of the county taking Over the 1 Parr Line road as an raddition to the county road system. He con­ demned the conditions of some of the roads in town and whs critical • of the action of the council in build­ ing the new rink. He was glad that | iPublic Utilities: Chas. MOore. Acclamation, 'This is the first time since 1921 that there has not been a municipal election in Hensail and is in line with Goderich Township, Turnberry, Ashfield, East and West Wawanosb Townships in Huron County, who held their nominations the same day and who elected their councils by acclamation. The 1337 council was a good council anl worthy of further confidence. Hensall was well pleased with the general clean up made by the council last spring and the suggestion made by .coun­ cillor Brook on nomination night, referring to levelling the streets i and ditches so that a mower could be used mere, to cut the grass and ! weeds and make the streets more attractive, is a good one. We believe Mr. Filshie is also right that the cf hydro is still coo hioh. Tne minimum rate could be 7.5c a month as it is in Exeter, in­ stead of $1.0'0 as at present. This rate would be of some benefit to the smaller users of Hydro. There is a large surplus being piled up, which is if no benefit to anyone and not in accord with the original idea of hydro, that is hydro at cost. The Hensail Public and Continua­ tion school board should have no further difficulties as they now have a Joseph, on their board. The people of Hensail were some­ what surprised when they heard on Saturday night that for business reasons Mr. Geiger did not qualify for the reeveship. This is the first time he has failed to .qualify since 1923 when he re-entered municipal life by defeating the late Alex Smith for the Reeveship. He. was Reeve in 192'3, 23, 2'5, 26 and 27. In 1928 he was defeated by Robt. Higgins, nlso again at a by-election held the same year. iMr. Higgins won again in 1929 and 19.30. In 1931 Mr. Geiger defeated J, W. Ortwein and in 1932 In 1933 Consitt William three cornered contest he defeated William Shepherd and David Robin­ son. In 1937 he was defeated by the present reeve Ernest Shaddick.
